Coconuts, Thor. I realize they don't grow in Norway, but every piece of property in the United States comes with its own coconut tree, by decree of law. You have to climb the tree while drunk and then spend a half hour hitting the coconut with a hammer, but drinking the coconut water is well worth the trouble if you want to feel good the next day.
There are two things Norway doesn't do, Onya: one is Halloween, and the other is coconuts.
Interesting. Tangerine Dream ale brewed by Craftwerke (almost Kraftwerk) -- should be doubly interesting. Except that I'm dreading it will taste like tangerine -- which is not my favourite taste for beer.
Have some Carlsberg (the 16oz cans) at the ready for the weekend's home festival ("Festival!") of 1990s Tarantino film wannabes and the three Gandy Fitch episodes of The Rockfish Files.
Oh, and Easter Sunday will be a meal at the Irish pub, so there will be Guinness.
While on holiday in Rhode Island this past week I became quite enamored with Whalers Rise beer. The stuff is delightful on tap, or, had I stayed in Rhode Island any longer, directly from the tap.

Interesting! Never heard of that.
As FB said, I never stopped drinking. Had a massive binge/party with fellow film critics just this Monday, for example. But sometimes, I don't feel like sharing in this thread. I've planned to down a bottle of white wine tonight, as well as some specialty beers. I just discovered a mango IPA(!) in the grocery store. I hope it's not too 'cidery'.
Yeah, I try and "drink local" when I travel. A lot of times those beers aren't available on draft where I live.
Beer snobs will recoil in disgust, but I've also become fond of Carlsberg. I get the cans because the (imported) bottled stuff is in green bottles, so it has a tendency to skunk.
Not too fond of Carlsberg, but I often drink Tuborg. A very 'standard' beer, but for cheaper "everyday" beers, when you just need a bit of refreshment, it's one of my favs.

I didn't know you could still get Tuborg. Haven't had it in years, it's not available in pubs or even off licences where I am. Didn't realise it was still a thing. Carlsberg isn't great, though aren't they changing the taste?
