the response is overwhelming

Because they're not beers. Newcastle and guinness are two different beers. You can't review a mix of beers, otherwise there would be an infinite number of beers in the beer vault.

and yet it's one of the most popular beers around the world or at any pub you go to.

In Reply To #4 Yea, right. On Saint Patties day, walk into a pub in Dublin and ask for a black and tan. Double dog dare ya. Arf and Arf, Barf an Barf, not black and tan. I hear tell in days gone by, St Patrick's day was the traditional release of bock in the states. Can you all imagine such a thing? Interesting St. Joseph day in Bayern starts the strakziet, strong bier time there. Where the hell di we all come from other then the old country and folks like mine, who slept and had kids with everything from africans to alliagtors. On a snowy day in the forest, there was no cannabis, or malt beverages. in the new world till the Eurps brought it. There were no matters, taters, chilis, and tobacco in the old. I am looking now to the Baltic Lands. And into the reefer for more reefer and brew....my goose is cooked. Ouch damn it take out the fork, ok, I am DONE!!!
