I agree, Steve. I much prefer the darker ales, and especially stouts over the light lagers. I haven't seen Old Peculiar or any of the Theakston line here in my area, but will keep it in mind as I peruse the coolers! US beers changed over the years, becoming more and more bland in taste, and lighter and lighter in color primarily due to the rationing of grains during WWI & WWII to reserve them for feeding stock. Thank goodness we have so many micro-breweries!!
