If I'd meant root beer I'd have said root beer. >>>

Okay. Sometimes my email drops characters. Not usually whole words  
though. But to me the idea of ice cream in beer sounded a bit  
strange. It still does.  And being an uncultured lout I hadn't heard  
of those other drinks. I really didn't know whether they were beers  
I'd never heard of, or perhaps root beers, which again I'd not heard  
of. So, I wanted to make sure.

<<< Lindeman's lambic is real honest-to-gods beer. Comes in  
Framboise, Kriek,
Peche, and Pomme, and Cassis. But it is not cheap, so it's one of those
occasional indulgences.

I really regret missing the beer class at Pennsic where the teacher  
went into all the different types of beer and passed around samples  
of a dozen or so different types. I find almost all beers I've had to  
be too bitter and I might have found some I liked.  Oh well. Maybe I  
can find a mundane class at UT or Central Market sometime.
