That's actually the 2005 edition ... which, in CR terms was 112 pages, I believe.

The 2006 Edition was 50% bigger than that even!!!

Delirium Noel - yes tis the Season

Here is a review from a professional - My first inclination is to give you the girlie review and tell you how cute the label is with the signature Delirium pink elephants pulling a sleigh dressed in their Santa hats. But I suppose I could come up with a little more! Tropical fruit, honey, caramel, light yeastiness, bubbly body, masking a deep fruity base, light spiciness and a sweet edge. Clean finish, very Grand Cru like.

Here is a review from LT - It was on tap so I cannot comment on how cute the label is. But it was an enjoyable bubbly brew served in a 10.5 oz glass - not too sweet. Clean finish, very Grand Cru like - in other words - not a guarenteed hangover in a glass.

I confess to not reading all the posts in this thread.

Have you already discussed how much potassium is in beer? It's great after a run !http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/biggrin.gif|src=http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/biggrin.gif|border=0!

Where's the bartender?

g

edited to add: 96mg of Potassium in 1 can (356g)
537mg in 1 cup of mashed banana (150g)

sure a banana is better, but you can't always find a banana in a bar.

Tying it back together ... high alcohol meets fruit beers ... I can't wait for this!!!

I wonder what you edited out of there...

Oh and back to beer. El Senor came home with a VDH that I am forgetting the name of - foggy something maybe. Whatever it was it was hoppy and good.

I saw that too.

Now a question. They were talking about Sam Adam's Utopia as being the strongest beer brewed but didn't you say there was one stronger. I think the one you mentioned may be distilled. Koch said they had to specially breed a yeast that could withstand the higher alcohol levels.
