Picked up some more Oktoberfestbier while it's still available. I think the HofbrΓ€u is my favorite.

I used to like Abbey ale, not sure that I ever had it from a can, cool looking glass. Oh, and that knife is GRRREAT!
Interesting post, Ken. In this part of the country, Pilsner Urquell is about the only Czech beer that I see, always found it to be tasty. Did you enjoy the food as well? I hope you post some pics in one of the threads.Mumbleypeg wrote: βWed Jan 14, 2026 4:09 pmWe just returned from a trip to Czech Republic and Hungary. The Czechs are serious beer drinkers. They love Pils and believe it should be cold and poured with a full head of foam. Not trying to cheat you out of beer, thereβs a mark on each glass that shows you got a full 1/2 liter of beer - on top is the foam. When you go to a bar or restaurant the beer barrels are typically on prominent display - they are re-filled daily. The typical bar tab has beer mugs on it - every time your table orders beer the waiter or bartender puts a slash to mark the number of beers served.
