begin Gary Turner quotation: > German imports to the US are good to very good for the most part. > Haven't found an outstanding brew (yet). Admittedly I'm biased towards dark beers, but I find Ayinger Celebrator and Spaten Optimator to be excellent. Paulaner Salvator is a little sweeter, but still very good. > French and Italian beers certainly set the standard for just not getting > it. > > Then we have the Belgians with Chimay. Decant and serve with pork. > This is a perfect union of tastes. There are a number of superb Belgian Trappist ales. Chimay ranks with the best, certainly, but Orval is also terrific. > What about the Dutch and their Grolsch? It makes up for that salty > abomination, Heineken. Try Grolsch with a grilled steak or roast beef. I have not had Grolsch. Thanks for the recommendation. Heineken is, indeed, awful. Craig
