You never know - it might be a "gateway" beer for some people, in the same way that Sam Adams Boston Lager opened up the world of craft brewing to legions of our lamentably uncurious American cousins. I'm genuinely eager to see what it's like, and refuse to be cynical about it.<BR/><BR/>But what I am happy to be cynical about is InBev's continual discovery of "original" recipes.

If by some twist of fate it actually picks up a distinctive flavour from the oak, then it might be considered too 'challenging'. If it doesn't, then it's just a weaker alternative to Stella. No doubt it'll be reassuringly expensive though...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
