I remember trying that a couple of months ago after my dad found one in an old timey supermarket and was telling me about how it was popular before Coca Cola came in. It tasted like shit.Hollock said:Screw America, I'm focusing on New England. Moxie, the first "most popularest soda" before you know what came in and took it's place. Now only sold in certain parts of New England, mostly in those ol' timey general stores. And it's not really good.

I would say that generally any beer from tasmania has a pretty good chance of being delicious, I'm not from tassie but a majority of the beer I drink is.

Our national drink is a ho-hum lager hopped with pride of ringwood. The brewer varies from state to state, but with only marginal differences in product. Only one large brewery makes really good beer. Coopers in Adelaide makes a (truely) world class Pale Ale, Sparkling Ale and Extra Stout. I'm not from Adelaide by the way. Generally the beer we drink is a hoppier version of american lagers. Don't get me wrong I like a nice crisp lager on a hot day, but the general domestic beers are not very good. You have to look around for more specialist brewers to get a good beer (or Coopers), but I suspect it is the same in the States, and getting there in the UK.

You may be referring to Braggot, though. It's a Welsh mead.
Technically, you are correct. Then again, so does beer and wine and liquor. All alcoholic beverages do date back to 20-40 thousand years ago in the fertile crescent area, but China was the first to mass produce it for public consumption around 7 or 8 thousand years ago.Littlee300 said:It was actually from EgyptSnake Plissken said:Oddly enough, Mead is originally from China.
