Damn these gunnies and their expertise which allows them to get acknowledgements. :p First Ken V, now Biggles.

Actually, Ken got a kudo as well. He's more of a gunny than I am. I just happen to carry the same guns as Jack does: a Glock 19 as primary and a Kel-Tec P11 for more discrete situations. And Paul probably only contacted me about a judicial question because I'm the only retired judge on the board. Still, I did enjoy my 15 seconds of "fame".

I must say though, that my only disappointment in Infernal is that Jack and I no longer have the same "everyday" beer (Rolling Rock). Can't complain about his replacement; I've had it before (in fact at WDW with Paul), but I don't find it this far West of Philly. Wish I could find Genny Cream Ale this far West too, but I digress.

Screamin' Genny's now is it. I know you can get 'em in Michigan-I just had some.

When I went to Valpo (Valparaiso U.) Law School, I was spoiled from having drunk Genessee Cream Ale during my undergrad years in the 'Burgh. Fortunately, a liquor store just off campus carried it cold by the 12-pack. It wasn't cheap, but it was available. I still would fill my trunk with cases of cans whenever I went back home to PA on breaks (that and my mom's nut rolls and poppy seed rolls).

Here's the brewery's link, BTW: http://www.highfalls.com/home.asp

While you were home in PA, ya mighta tried some of that Neweiller's (Spelling? Neueiller's) Cream Ale . That was pretty decent back in the day for a kid from the Lehigh Valley.

FPW suggested this brew to me some time ago. I wasn't able to find it locally though (West Virginia). Sad I was able to sample the other beers suggested to me on that thread and liked them all.
