SV: [AT] Mattias at Portland

[John Deere]

Contrary to popular belief, we actually import real beer into the US.  Not 
long ago I stopped at the tavern to buy some beer on the way home.  The 
Mexican fella in front of me was buying Molson, I bought Stella Artoris 
(Belgium) and the local Russian gunsmith was drinking a Bass ale at the bar. 
  It is truely a global economy when alcohol is involved here in the old 
mixing pot.  Of course, during the NASCAR race and Bud is a dollar a bottle 
not much Bass is on the table!
