Jul-08-11 | | Akavall: <JoergWalter> I see. Quite interesting, though unfortunate, so not even bottled beer is like in Germany. Maybe I should just go to Germany one day or at least visit Europe more often. |

Jul-08-11 | | JoergWalter: <Akavall> in 1994 I spent one year in Paramus, NJ. That time there were a quite a few microbreweries in that area. Some had very good own brews. And I remember Samuel Adams was ok for an industry beer. Don't know whether this will change with INBEV controlling the market. |
|
Jul-08-11 | | Akavall: <JoergWalter> Yeah. There are a lot of good microbreweries here, but generally they make good ales, sometimes very good, but I find their lagers unimpressive [don't know about New Jersey ones of course]. And my opinion about Sam Adams is about the same: good ales, very average lagers. |
|
Jul-08-11 | | JoergWalter: Lager is challenging in the making. Microbreweries should only attempt it at winter time and budget a lot of money for the special yeast. this is a limiting factor for microbreweries. |

Jan-21-12 | | Akavall: Have there been games where a pawn was promoted to rook or bishop because promoting to queen would be inferior? |
|
Jan-21-12 | | King Death: < Akavall: Have there been games where a pawn was promoted to rook or bishop because promoting to queen would be inferior?> There are people who know a lot more than I do about stuff like that and can probably cite a bunch of examples, but here's the most famous example of all though it isn't from a game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saaved... |
|
Jan-21-12 | | Akavall: <King Death> Thanks. It is a cool position. And I believe that I saw a puzzle position where promoting to bishop was the only winning move/plan. It would be still interesting to know whether under-promotions to rook and bishop actually happened in a real game. I played thousands of blitz games and only under-promoted to knight once. |
