Yummy - I like Dr Pepper too!  I remember moving to Ohio from Tennessee when I
was just a wee lass.  I was quite distraught over the relative lack of Dr
Pepper.  It's everywhere now though!

You know Bruce - I was reading the liner notes to the 98 degrees CD (it's my
roommate's, really!), and I saw one or two Lachey's in the band.  Also, one of
the guys thanked Miami U.  Interesting.

Woodchuck's always been a little too sweet for me.  what can I say - it's a
personal taste!  Beer-wise, I adore Belgian beer.  There's a local brewery out
here in Colorado that makes a belgian-style ale called Fat Tire which is to die
for!  And their Sunshine Wheat is quite possibly my fave beer ever.

In-Cider - I like it!  :-P

Guinness and cider, interesting.  I think I may have seen that in a bar
somewhere, but I've never tried it.  I'll have to check it out.  I did try a
raspberry ale/champagne concoction once that was quite the tasty summer
spritzer.

OK - I've got to end this now - I'm beginning to feel like an alcoholic!

Thanks again for all the Savannah info Aaron & Gardner - you guys are awesome!
I owe you each a cider (or other beverage of choice) next time I see ya'!
