Wow, that is pretty interesting about the first one. Disappointing too. It is always a little sad when you spend the money on a beer just to find out that you don't like it. In the states the stores here have started to do a "make your own six pack" type thing so you don't have to get all the same type or brand. It is a really nice change. Sadly a lot of the beers that I like you probably can't get over there. If I lived in Europe though, I'd probably have a list for you as long as your arm!
