Nice job again Bob. I think last time I called you Rob (sorry). It is sad to see when companies take out their wooden fermenters or storage vessel. I know numerous people who have told me that Pilsner Urquell was never quite the same when SAB bought them out and replaced wood with stainless steel. It’s terrible when “progress” is really regress and you end up with a flattening out of beers. Some progress seems to be even colder than the coldest lager.

Good God, Bob. You make me feel so inadequate. I can only imagine playing a role in something as important as ensuring my favourite beer is protected. The best I've done, along the same lines, was fighting off thirst-crazed customers in Dan Murphey's Liquor Shop at Christmas after I grabbed the last cold carton of Toohey's New. Keep 'em coming.

I drank my bottle of Staro just after reading this post, and I agree with everything that you said about the beer. A great example of the style, and a great story! Coops, you've done an honorable thing as well. However, the people at the store were likely crazed because of the thong, not the beer!
