    Used to love Stella but knowing it's brewed there takes the sheen off it somehow. Not even as strong as it used to be.

    I believe San Miguel and Cobra are brands from there. They probably adjust the blend slightly and stick a different label on the bottle

    I think they just decant it from a different rest room.

    Oh well, I think I've still got some drain cleaner under the sink, the wife is still getting a battering tonight.

    I believe San Miguel and Cobra are brewed there too. They probably just adjust the blend slightly and stick a different label on the bottle each time they switch to a different production run

    Now:

    Do you ever pull up old threads to have a go at people?
    It's a poor taste joke that I dont have any issue with.

    If you think your "calling me out" because you have the humour sophistication of a dead sardine then...

    Pulling up old threads is a reasonable way of pointing out someone's hypocrisy or intellectual dishonesty.

    Are you married?
