On last Saturday, I cycled about 35km. Up and Down, bumpy dirt road, about 20km from Prague.
1. Cycling in forest and breathing clean fresh air
2. Watching white froth slowly turning to black and shiny surface of liver and hearing splash sound by bank
3. Gulping down black liquid, called Kozek, into throat and catching breath with its aftertaste
Priceless...

I forgot to tell you I had Staropramen last Friday night. I'll have to try it again because strangely I liked it which is very unusual for a pilsner. I want to see if it was just a strange night, but it may be the best pilsner I've had (which isn't saying much because I haven't liked any others).

Oh crap, it's actually a lager (which I've been told is pretty much a pilsner anyways), but I still need to try it again. Tried to have it tonight, but it didn't work out.

Your blond beer instinct is about to wake up. You are well prepared to visit Prague.
Last weekend, I and my friends had 30L of Pilsne in 2 day and 3 nights. I like barrel beer because itfs less carbonated.
Also it has finer froth, and itfs just nice to watch froth slowly, but very slowly disappearing while watching a light changing.

And yesterday, I had Thai beer, called Singha. You might say gThai beer? Crapch, but actually, it wasnft bad to me.
Itfs 6% alcohol. Good Blond Beer. I have poor vocabulary to describec Try it if you had a chance.

What did you have?
I had Hoegaarden.
http://www.silrubin.com/hoeg_white.htm
.3L for 18CZK. (buck or so) .5 for 32CZK. It's called white beer here. it taste like unfiltered beer bit.
Yesterday, I went Pilzen. I took several pictures. I will up-load them. Today, I bought mobile internet connection that I can be online unlimitted of time. But the speed still sucks.(Max around 8kb/sec, DL)

I'm just drinking McEwan's Scotch Ale now. Not as good as the one I had from Quebec, but still pretty good, and it's 8%. Tastes a bit like pine tree.
Anything new lately Taku? Hoegaarden doesn't just taste like unfiltered beer, it IS unfiltered beer.

I never tried McEwan's Scotch Ale before. It's good excuse for me to go Scotland to test my English skill and beer tasting skill.
Ice cold Hoegaarden can heal damage we had from hot weather.

Back on the new-beer wagon. Drinking Baltika, "Russian Classic Beer", and it is "brewed specially for [me]!". It doesn't say wether it is a lager or pilsner, but it's one of the two. The best I can say is that it's not offensive, not bitter, it really doesn't have much taste. I could drink it, but I don't think I will be doing that.
I also had Walkerville lager from Windsor a couple nights ago. Yeah, that was pretty much a waste of money. A Molson/Labatt rip-off brewed with Detroit River water... mmmm....

Unrelated and related to beer, have you found that a gut has sprung from nowhere? Mine has 3 rolls. When it's hot, and when I'm sitting (which is always and always) the creases get wet. When the hell did I get fat?

I started getting one like 2 years ago and then realized that I had been buying 2-bite brownies, cookies and ice cream which I never used to eat regularly, but I had been buying EVERY week. I realized I had been fooling myself by not putting them on my shopping list and saying "I'll get them if I think of it, since I don't really need it. Well I never forgot to buy them. So I cut that stuff out and that made me lose the weight I gained. After a while I slowly replaced all that other stuff with beer, and gained the weight back. Then last summer came and with more activity I lost it again. It mostly came back over the winter and has stayed around mostly through the summer despite the fact that I'm drinking way less beer this summer as compared to last.
Yeah, you looked fatter at Matt's wedding than what I remembered. Get off your ass and stop eating so much prepared/junk food. Or suffer the fate of most programmers/game designers: sitting in your extra soft computer chair in front of your chocolate bar wrapper-laden desk sucking down your 8th Mountain Dew for the day and wondering how it was you got so fat, after you've decided it's just too much effort to get up and go piss right now; you'll do it later.

I was buying a bunch of different beers at the LCBO last night and I found one called "Monty Python's Holy Grale". Haven't tried it yet though, but it's from a brewery that makes another pretty decent beer. Takuo, you must get back on the beer bandwagon.

I see. You are just jealous because you do not drink beer like the cool people. You have to drink to be cool. You want to be cool don't you?
P.S. The Holy Graile Ale wasn't that great. I figured I was mostly buying it for the bottle and I wasn't wrong. It's decent, but not quite what I like.

So Taku, I'm drinking Zlatorog from Slovenia. It's OK but I think pretty much all Eastern European beers are pretty much similar. What have you been drinking lately?

Eric, thank you for reminding me that I am beer lover. I almost forgot about that...
This 14th, I'm going to UK, near Manchester. I think I'll have a chance to go local pub as well. I'll try few different kinds.

My friend who was just in England said they have 3 or 4 different kinds of Newcastle beer there. I am jealous. I can only get Newcastle Brown Ale here, but it is the best beer ever in the world.

I am still an OK beer drinker. I drank too much after my trip to Halifax, we stopped in Quebec City on the way back and I filled my cooler with beer. So I am taking a little break and only binge-drinking.
I had some pretty good beers from Quebec, but nothing really great. I have been drinking some really bitter India pale ales recently. Not Alexander Keiths, that crap is not an IPA.
