 You missed the point, I didn't see any known beers that I like in 
 between those 400, that IS my personal opinion, and probably little 
 beer knowledge

 I like strong "toasted" beer, 8%+, and I love Grimbergen Optimo Bruno.

 Ripped off, I had the privilege of being able to pay for my first
 beer after forking £8.

 I do have an official pint glass from Camra, 1996 Glasgow Festival,
 this vintage item could be yours for say £6, next Lonix. 

 Why is it illegal to serve in any other measure? Because pubs took
 the punters for a ride for a long, long time. 

 P.S.: If you have any issue with my opinions, I'm afraid it IS your
 problem, consolate yourself thinking that it is not that bad that
 the rest of the world doesn't think exactly like you.
