A general critigue---if you will.   I just happened onto this thread and, as most threads, they tend to drift in tangents that perhaps lawyers would appreciate in the defining of terms---at many dollars per hour.

But beer. I loved that. A short tale. I am not a beer drinker and, while truly loving its look totally not liking the taste. Yet, many years back whilst in dear old England I ordered Shandy in a pub. Liked it a lot. Later while on the return flight (and I do not like flying) asked the steward if they might be serving Shandy--his comment--Why the hell would anyone want to ruin a good beer with lemonade. Oh well--sort of like my episode with the Sheriff of New Orleans years back. He was a wine lover and, I guess, an expert. One night in Antoines he did the ordering---I could not drink it. The next night in a local place near him he said "..you order the wine". I don't care for wine so I ordered a NY State Sauterne--tasted good to me. He said it was pure "piss".

SO---I stick to Vodka and and hope this will not lead to a lawerly like discussion of wine and beer on this thread. OR--does it matter what booze is called? My fee there is 200.00/hour.
