If you were stranded on an island and could only drink one brand of commercial beer for the rest of your life, what brand would you choose? :-)

ONE brand? ONLY ONE!!!??? Sh*t, when they do these Desert Island Discs with music, you at least get 10 picks and those are albums that might have 10-20 songs on them, multi-dsic sets even, sometimes (Dylan SACD box set, Hank Williams Box, Beatles Box Set....hmmm, seven more, right?)

So on this island of yours- is there a bottle opener or a sharp rock to get the caps off? Is there a cooler or place to keep beer out of the sun (might have to eliminate Jever right off the bat). Traditionally, these are tropical islands, so I'd have to eliminate a lot of beers one usually drinks in cool or colder weather (yeah, even if some Guinness is popular in Africa and the Carribean).

No, no, wait, you did say "Brand", tho', rather than "beer", so I'm taking the Victory __brand__ and enjoying Prima, HopDevil, Golden Monkey, Storm King, Old Horizontal, etc. (Will they send me Hop Wollop on the island? I can't find it in New Jersey.)

Or is that cheating on a technicality? Are you gonna kick me off your stinkin' island?

Hmmm...OK, how 'bout this. I'll pick a long neck bottle of Bud, smash it on the rocks and slit my wrists with a jagged piece of bottle...

Somethin' draft-only from a local brewpub so I could hitch a ride home when they came to service my taplines.

Nah, something in a bottle so I could send out SOS messages.

Hopefully it would be a tropical island. Not something up in northern Canada. Lots of choices out there. I agree with the bottle idea for rescue notes.

Hmmmmmmm... Fullers IPA.

I live in Finland. And not in the south. Its not as bad as norhern Canada of course but am currently unemployed and last I had a woman was years ago and am starting to be sure there wont be anymore either. I dont even talk to lots of people in a week. Like, maybe four in all in a usual week, many days go by and I talk to none.

So, if the island was a tropical one and I had unlimited beer, why would I want to be 'rescued' ? - I am sure I'd prefer to stay there with the beer.

(Naturally, I'd prefer a woman, at least any non-nagging one who did not leave the minute she heard the guy's out of work, but that was not what was asked)

..as for the brand, that'd better be tropical too, then.. drank some cuban beer, dont remember the brand, would choose that otherwise but even after glancing through a list of cuban beers, cannot remember so it'd have to be red stripe (only 'tropical' one that i remember the name of, but drinkable =))

No Usenet connection on the island.
