"Beers and Ales"

On the Beers and Ales clear misunderstanding...I'm with you Chad. That is utter bologna if you ask me, why should they pretend to have a higher class beer section if they can't even label it correctly?! I went to the Harry Tweeter the other day and was again somewhat impressed initially by the selection of beer "and ales...", but, quickly, after getting over the initial shock of the more choices beyond the usual Lagerland of mass production mid-western American beers, I got bored of the choices. It's like somebody went through a catalog and picked out some of the more exotic beers they had at some somewhat trendy restaurants, not what I would consider a knock down fest of microbrews and exotic tastes. There also seems to be an obsession with carrying every beer out there that comes in a clear bottle, which clearly indicates a lack of quality storage to pour in a heavily lighted environment. Then, I remember that the Tweeter's goal seems to be to stay at just above the middle of the line as far as megamarts offering just enough exotic tastes and choices for the standard white person to feel that they can get most things on their recipe list and to just feel explorative enough to see new ingredients, beers, etc. to maybe try something new. For those of us who have clearly tasted and explored beyond that, we have higher standards and our shopping must expand beyond the megamart. For us, it's required to go the Sam's QuickShops, Asian markets, Whole Foods, and other more specialty shops of the worlds to satisfy the urges we have of what the world has t offer. There's my 2 cents...
