This
testimonial was prepared earlier:
"Thank
you very much for arranging the bar for last Friday night, at relatively
short notice. Yes, it was a great night and the Brew Crew definitely
contributed to the success of the evening. I must say Andrew the
the three girls were wonderful and worked very hard and at the same
time managed to remain friendly, helpful and efficient. The beer
was great also. I'm not a beer drinker myself but even I enjoyed
several glasses of the brew and I confess I'm converted. It really
went down very well and was just the right temperature. It was also
great having a real "bar" in the garden. Best of luck
with your venture - you certainly have hit on a great idea."

- "S U W O N S H O O T O U T"
Suwon,
Korea - June 16 2002: a day that has gone down in World Cup history.
It was the game that saw a 91st minute equaliser for plucky Ireland
against The Mighty Spaniards. It was the finale that provided a
goalless extra time. It ended in a battle to progress to the quarter
finals with a penalty shootout. What happenned next?
Steady
YOUR nerve and step up to the penalty spot. Our pals Lewis Boadle
and Dara Walsh have re-rigged their shoot out game, and now invite
you to re-write history in 'Suwon Shoot Out'

Cristal
(4.9% abv) - 'la preferida de CUBA'
Hear
the song on site below. The song is better than the beer, but the
beer is grand from the bottles or cans when very cold. Draught is
unreliable, but will get you there. Best drunk in significant quantities.
"Cristals
distinctive packaging features the royal palm, Cubas national
symbol and your assurance of authentic Cuban taste. Experience the
intensely refreshing flavor and exceptional quality of Cristal,
Cubas number one beer."
"We
Cubans love our national products and it isn't uncommon to see Cristal
at all concerts, parties, on the beach or in the hands of a serious
domino player or any respected salsa dancer."

an Irish verion of this last paragraph - Ed]

He
was a very cautious man.
He never romped or played.
He never smoked, he never drank
nor even kissed a maid.
So when he up and passed away
insurance was denied.
For since he hadn't lived
they claimed he hadn't died.
