Google AdSense Sucks and Doesn't Work

AdSense doesn't work on my blog and the dumb google or adsense or whoever does nothing about it.

Don't get involved with Google AdSense - the whole thing is a giant heap of manure at best, you'll get nothing from it but grief and certainly next to nothing in the way of earnings.

The thing has more bugs and than a hobo's bed.

Moscow Craft Beer Chain Store Head to Head Battle

In this post two Moscow retail chains - Perekrestok and Auchan - are going head-to-head on the choice of craft beer! And my taste buds will be the jury!

So here they are! Cans are from a Perekrestok store, bottles are from an Auchan outlet.

Auchan craft beer is represented by:

Belgium's famous red beer - Rodenbach Classic Red Ale
Belgium's cherry beer - Delirium Red Brouwerij Huyghe
English ale - Fuller's London Pride
Belgium's abbots'  - St. Bernardus Pater 6
Belgian craft Wit - St. Bernardus Wit

All are world-renowned and quality craft beers and all but one are from Belgium.

Which is not surprising considering that Auchan is a French chain.

Crafting beer is the only thing Belgium can do more or less well, no?

Perekrestok contingent is as follows:

Stone Berliner Weisse - a weiss beer
Stone Go To IPA - a session IPA (Indian Pale Ale)
Stone Arrogant Bastard Ale - tops its category
Stone IPA
Stone Ripper

Stone is one of the foremost craft microbreweries in the world.

All beers were consumed with satisfaction and each was different and good and thankfully far removed from mass market beer swills (InBEV, Anheuser-Busch, Heineken, Guinness, etc. etc. - having tasted craft, wouldn't be caught dead drinking one of those - not anymore).


And here are the results:
Perekrestok wins in the nomination "The Most Complete Representation of One Brand of Craft Beer" which is Stone in this case.

But it doesn't have much else to choose from, although when you have Stone maybe you need nothing else.

However Auchan wins in the nominations "Variety of Craft Beer" and "Craft Beer by Belgian Producers".
