He ordered drinks for all of us; some sort of dark ale for he and I, and raspberry something or other "for the women". Her reaction was, "*FRUIT* beer? WTF?" ...or something equivalent. Belgian Raspberry beer. It's called Kriek IIRC. It used to be all the rage at the Full Moon back in the 80's. But like Styx, Journey, Leg Warmers, and the Commodore 64 I thought it was over. Silly me. //Walt // //Magic Hat - served so cold you can't taste the patchoulli... |

From Wikipedia: Kriek is a Belgian beer fermented with sour (also called Morello) cherries. Traditionally "Schaarbeekse krieken" (a rare Belgian morello variety) from the area around Brussels are used. Kriek is a Dutch word for sour cherry. I suppose my memory has failed me as to the fruity flavor of the "beer" in question. I always liked the leg warmer look........ then again I kinda like the Uggs and tights look too. Chris |
