Hey, what can i say? I've had a few Tankhouse ales, etc., and honestly have nothing clever to add to this thread. What amazes me is that only two people have added anything relevant. (Wow and Not are worth considering} All the other comments are like commercial wankers. Good luck with that. No one I know would open any of your links....evah!
