You’re quite right—there are good beers and bad beers, and good beers which aren’t to one’s own taste. I firmly believe that there’s a beer out there for every man, woman and child on this planet: the trick is finding it.

For gals who otherwise don’t care for beer, but like sweet & fruity drinks, I recommend the sweet lambic varieties such as Lindeman’s and BelleVue kriek (cherry) or framboise (raspberry).
