Incidentally present capacity is 20 milk crates, each hold 16 Grolsh bottles which fit as though they were designed for them.

Considering they export all over the world and probably get a very small fraction of bottles returned, it must cost quite a bit more to bottle this brew.

Now I see what you mean, thanks. And yes, we do have Grolsch down here, too.Considering they export all over the world and probably get a very small fraction of bottles returned, it must cost quite a bit more to bottle this brew.

Question, is this real, or is it just publicity?:

The do have different limited promotions from time to time, just not a regular item.

Do you drink it alone, César? Maybe the type Captain Monasterio or Diego de la Vega use to drink when Zorro is not around, thus having time to relax...
I was the only one to drink it... everyone else were having beers and mixed drinks... but not me, no sir-ee ... I like to relaxingly have my Port after dinner... one delicious, slow sip at a time...
A beer spiced with cocoa and a hint of red pepper... very interesting experience. With a roasted flavor, and a full body, almost like a porter. The cocoa gives it a coffee-like taste, and the pepper balances the aftertaste, dampening the in-your-face flavor that reminds me of Guinness beer.
The name is rather funny. It literally translates to "Do me a Russian"
The encarnation of Drew Carey's fabled "Buzz Beer"?
Why do you make me google up everything you say???
And yes... I did watch The Drew Carey Show back in the 90's... but I certainly didn't watch every single chapter!
Fast forward to the 2:00 point then watch to the end. The buzz beer jingle is played by drew on the accordion.Why do you make me google up everything you say???

Tabeersco?
... hilarious... I always had a crush on that Kate O’Brien character... (Christa Miller) ... what a sweetheart
There is no winner and loser in Champaign - just different. If you include all sparkling wines, then there is some really bad stuff out there.
My "champagnes" are as bogus as your spelling.
I already know I love the real stuff and don't need taste-tests to prove it again to myself. My experiment is to see if there is a sparkling wine in the $10 (on sale) range that I can live with. Everything I've got for tonight is something I've had before but I can't recall having them side-by-side.
Even Cook's Brut Reserve, which I can find here for $4.99, is enjoyable for day-to-day use. So that's really the question: Is there something out there worth spending $10 on instead of just drinking the $5 Cook's?

My crystal ball is showing me there's heartburn in your horizon....
And a sulfite headache.
