If it's 2 or 3% it's piss.... definately not beer.
I has to be at least 5% for me to consider it beer... anything below that is reindeer piss!

They are what we call "women-beers". Most of the time they have the taste of some fruit (cherry, raspberry, ..).

hmmmm can I interest you in a trade of a bottle of Salmiakki Koskenkorva for one or two 6 packs of Super Bock? (is that legal?) I don't think it's illegal to send small amounts of booze to foreign lands inside the EU. But wouldn't it be difficult to post six packs of beer without the postmen screwing them up? (or drinking them ;D)

I don't think it's illegal to send small amounts of booze to foreign lands inside the EU. Dunno about the mail (just think the bottles would be damaged), I only know about the plane (as I did bring some Absinth to Sweden for someone this last weekend... so I had to study the laws): you are allowed to bring 1 liter of "heavy" alcohol, and 36 bottles of beer for each person! ;D

The limit for alcohol in Brasil (In law) is 52%, but have some Cachaça with more in small cities from Minas Gerais! Ah that's great! ;D You drink one little glass and floor!

(or drinking them ;D) I'd take the bottles out and wrap them in this protective foam or something.... I work in an advertising agency specialized in mailing stuff, so I have a lot of that around.... By the way, I was serious.... I'm desperate to get some Salmiakkikossu here!! KOSSUA, PERRRRRRKELE!!!!

Okay, if you ask so nice. ;D I'm always eager to taste some new beers, i don't like finnish beer so much either.. I'm currently short of money, but how about in next month, so the kossu will be there before christmas?

Brilliant! I'm in... I'll go to the post office on monday to ask what are the rules concerning sending glass objects through the mail system.
One thing that would help is, here we have 1 litre bottles of beer.... it'd be easier to send than 6 packs. The quality isn't the same though, cause towards the end of the bottle the beer tends to lose it's gas/quality... unless you drink it all very quickly.
I could easily send ya 2 litre bottles of portuguese beer. One Sagres and one Super Bock... (we should probably talk further through pm or something I guess)
edit: if there's space I'll throw in a bottle of Portuguese Hard-Liquour called Bagaço.... it's horrible!!! But very very stronger... instant drunkeness. (btw, both portuguese beers have won several medals in international competitions... hehehehe)

Just a try to talk a bit about some polithics... what do you think will happen now with Palestine after Arafat's death? I'm a bit pessimistic and think it will be dissoluted in internal fights, which will permit AdolfHitler Sharon anniquilate palestinians... I hate that fucking son of a bitch, and I hate the fact that Jews are doing with Palestinians the same that the rest of the world did with them. They only seem to have learned revenge, no more. Neither do I applause all this terrorism from Hammas and terrorists groups, but sometimes I understand that the only choice that a country have is the one of war... XXI Century and human race is still this blind and stupid
