HARD AGROUND!

Quick, copyright "Hard Aground, the Beer of Choice for Deep Draft Cruisers!" Another excellent name, Scott. Have you ever considered getting out of the money game and becoming a copywriter?

The Heineken that is sold in the Caribbean is brewed in the Caribbean. So it is made by locals and is the most popular beer in the Caribbean in sales, so the locals are loving it. It is not my favorite but it is "local" to the caribbean, if that floats your beer boat.

There is no such thing as a bad beer. It's just that some beers are better than others.

I enjoy drinking the local beers....but often they are not great. Except in northern Europe where I tried hard to sample all 500 local Belgium beers.

To paraphrase the world's most interesting man, I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I drink Pilsner Urquell.

Of course there are probably 1000 microbrews that I haven't tried, so maybe there's one I would like better. But maybe not.

Being a declasse American, I also like my beer cold.
