#4 Muslims deserve to be offended, if so doing illustrates their backwardness. However, be aware that ANY depiction of the phony "prophet" of their cult, is prohibited. Frankly, I would replace our foreign origin Muslims with Philipinos and Hindus. And maybe some Africans to further prove we aren't racist. |

#2 Carlsberg, Tuborg and Neptune are all Danish beers. New independent brewers are also sprouting up, among them are Fuglsang, Hancock, Harboe, Refsvindinge, Thisted, Vestfyen. There are also microbreweries like Brøckhouse, Grauballe, Wintercoat, Skands, Herslev, Ørbæk and Troldhede. This list does not even cover the brewpubs like Apollo, Sct Clemens, Flakhaven, Herning (all owned by the same company), Svaneke Bryghus, Fur, Nørrebro and Søgaards Bryghus. And if you can pronounce even a few of these names, I'll buy you a beer. Here in America, the two main brands are Carlsberg and Tuborg. I'm a Tuborg guy myself. Nice hoppy aroma, good body (like the Danish women), and a crisp, clean finish (unlike the Finnish). [dwarf voice] I can tell you about the Holy Grolsch. [/dv] It's from Holland. A fine beer but certainly not Danish. Sidebar: According to legend, Carlsberg and Tuborg supposedly back each other up when shortages occur. Since they located are across the street from each other, rumor has it that a pipeline connects the two breweries. Danes jokingly refer to their national beers as "Carlsborg" and "Tuberg". |
