Egyptian beer
Apparently Egypt has two main beers, Saqqara and Stella. Does anyone have any experience with either of these beers? Are they light or dark in color? Bitter or mild in taste? I'm not a big beer drinker but when I do I chose Boulivard Wheet or Samuel Adams or Cuevero or Dos Ecques over Bud Lite (or whatever). So which would I most likely prefer? (remembering it's a beer...lol)

Was in Egypt this past November and tried all the beers offered. All were light, very cold and very good. However, it being a Muslim country, be careful about ordering a 'beer', since you may get a non-alcoholic one. Several of my group had this happen the first time we ordered, and were sure to order a specific brand thereafter.

Anybody read the war novel or seen the film, "Ice Cold in Alex" ? Any civilised beer drinker would appreciate the title. But the Hollywood movie distributors forced the producers to change it for the American market to 'Desert Attack'. They've got about as much imagination as a dead sloth. I've been off Hollywood ever since.
