Confront a child, a puppy, and a kitten with a sudden danger; the child will turn instinctively for assistance, the puppy will grovel in abject submission, the kitten will brace its tiny body for a frantic resistance.

A while back I found a brewers+fish that sold platic liter bottles of Berghoff near me, but yesterday evening they told me they can't sell it to me if I leave with it, apparently I have to drink it there :evil:
I need a new source... any ideas in Pretoria?

You mean the one at Junction? That's where Xyler and myself picked it up last time we bought some.

Blame yourself ACiD - just imagine what lekker things in life your friends might not know of? :lol:

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.

They have 5 brewed there, I think, and one tap they get from somewhere, some brewing association I think. They have an English ale, American ale, oatmeal stout, blonde beer, the 5th I can't remember - but it's a fruity one. Reminds me a lot of the Leffe beers in Belgium. The one they get from wherever it is, is something different every time.

I'll be going back there regularly.

Forgot to add, they also sell per bottle, R22 a pop or R20 when buying more than six. The food is also expensive, especially given the portion size, and the menu is limited, but the food was good.
