Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Nothing like paying import costs for essentially Budweiser.

The Boss decided to try this and I'm surprisingly taken, given my preference for dark beer. It's very smooth, almost a creamy sensation.

Hello,
I'm back in Texas - all the IPA's have Texas-y names and all are pretty bland (as well as upside down).
