Thommo - You are a very wise man. I think that is the only sensible option, after 6 beers, you dont care what you drink! You will for the first one, but after that, it wont taste like anything, except impending hangover.
Snow - Your advice is also excellent, but if he gets his mates onto his home brew, they'll drink him outta house and home (maybe)
Sorry you have to drink VB from a can, Hupupnee, at least ya got some good advice!
All the best
