Cheers!

I hear it is quite warm in North America today.
Below is something from France, Kronenbourg 1664 'Blanc'. Obviously it is a 'White' beer, deliberately cloudy and fresh. It passes up a refrigerated, 3 foot chrome tap. You can see the condensation running down the outside. The glasses are frosted, and washed out with freezing cold water before the beer is poured in.
Maybe the French are good for something after all?

Of course, on a sunny day, there is nothing quite like any of the dozens of independently brewed British beers. They are not warm. They are golden-brown, sweet, or bitter, and malty.The one in the picture below hasn't quite settled yet, which is why the sunlight is lightening the top third.

Thirsty? Try the fridge. Maybe there is the odd can of something cold and tasty left.

Or you could try a Bud. If you are desperate. In this sort of weather though, an MGD would be quite acceptable.

Ahhh.. Tetley's - the official beer of the English Rugby Team. It is such a shame that this wonderful ale is so hard to procure here in Michigan.
