What wrong with warm (room temp) beer? Just last night after work, my sixer of Fat Tire never made it to the fridge. Well I tossed two in the Freezer and three in the fridge... the sixth.... Went down smooth... with a big smile even. I don't have a problem with warm beer, I prefer my stouts on the warmer side. Then again I've never been to the UK to enjoy a "cool" beer, so I don't know how "warm" is "warm". Oh and Nick, we aren't pickin on you, your beer or the temperature you drink your beer. The thread got onto a joke line about Lucas, and not specifically about beer. If it makes you feel better.. how about.. Why do Brits keep their beer in cold musty cellars? Cause Lucas builds their Fridges. We're all just having fun... laugh with us cause nobody REALLY cares how fast a European Swallow can fly, with or without a Givi Trunk. Oh yeah, you did post your reply earlier but you sent it directly to me and not to the list. LaterZ Dash
