Any rare imports you guys from overseas can recommend?

I've had most of everything but maybe I can try and hunt
down or request a couple cases fromthe local stores.

Last good beer i've had was La fem de mone (spell?) been
enjoying that, at 9% content, and still a great taste!

"ten for a fiver of anything out the fridge."

I used to get ten bottles of Rolling Rock for a fiver in the
offie, I don't know if they'd breached their sell by date,
but a very "woody" flavour, and I'm not talking about cocks.

I lied. I just like the way the can looks.

Pretty much all domestic beer tastes the same to me.

For me Guiness is the best (black and tans is what it is all
about)
Pete's strawberry blone is another good one
Youngs double chocolate stout
Dead Guy Ale
Killians Irish Red
Down Town Brown
any kind of absinthe (pernod for me) <---not really beer but
it will mess you up fast

FUCK

it is expensive.

you have to order for at least $35 and for ten bottles of
Kwak (at $3.50 each) you would have to pay $45 shipping.

The beer I think you're referring to is called "La Fin du
Monde" (the end of the world), and I really like it myself
though most people don't. It's made by a Quebec brewery
called Unibroue Unibroue Brewery

I also really like Sleeman's and Alexander Keiths, though i
don't know if you consider those exotic or not, since Canada
is not across the ocean from you.

I like...
Coors light (better than Bud light, IMHO but not my #1)
Any of the "Bock's" (Def. some of the best I've had esp.
kegged)
Newcastle (def. good)
Minnesota Brew (A nice find, it's cheap and good)
Sapporo (some)
I'm not really weathered in the import section of beers, so
I can't really say much about that.
Bass sucks. So does Little Kings (tastes like hot dogs). How
can people rate Sam Adams as the #1 beer over here (or so
the commercials say)? Wrongggggg
I've always wanted to go to a Tapwerks or even a European
Pub just to try different stuff. Someday.
Imma go puke muh guts out now, I just watched "Supersize
Me". Goddamn.
I've heard one alcoholic beverage a day is supposed to
increase bloodflow / oxygen to the brain and increase IQ.
But what do I know, I just listen to electronic music.

"Vajoina!"
Any homebrewers here?
