What about the original B&W Tv series "The Untouchables", narated by Walter Winchel ( who actually reported on the real FBI/Al Capone/Mafia wars ), "starring Robert Stack as Eliot Ness". Nearly every week they featured a micro-brewery and the F****ing Feds trashed it <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->

They even poured the beer down the grids of Chicago - Oh to be a Chicago sewer rat ("beer connoisseur"), they must have got Peed silly!!

One of my favourite characters was the book-keeper ( aka Treasurer ) of Al Capone's mob: Jake "Greasy Thumb" Guzik

Cheers

Beer Tickers is knocking around here somewhere, but I haven't watched it yet. I think Tom has it. If anyone wants to borrow it I'm sure we could arrange something.

I really really need to see Strange Brew again - it's been far too long.

The beer tickers is a bit of craic, I have it saved on to my sky box. Look at it now and then for a bit of entertainment.

Strange Brew is by Cream (and a film as TBN pointed out) the Bad Manners song is Special Brew
