Indeed. I only like dark beers (my very first beer was a Guiness, drunk in 
a true Irish pub - I was in Galway :) -. That probably set my taste ;)) ), 
and they are a pain to find on the continent. Even import Guiness doesn't 
really taste like the real stuff :(( .

Especially in the Netherlands, where my experience says that beer is there 
even bubblier than in France (my friend agrees: he finds beers in France 
too flat for his taste).

They are difficult to find outside specialised places (There are Irish pubs 
around here, so it's not impossible. Just difficult). Belgium also has very 
dark beers, but they are usually very bubbly too...

You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
