I am not really a beer drinker - prefer quality to quantity! - but when I was in Seattle two years ago, I was gasping for a cool drink and went into a small bar away from the tourist areas. When I asked the barmaid what she might recommend, she looked at my kilt and indicated one of the many pumps on the bar counter. It was Pike Brewery's "Kilt Lifter Ale". I tried it and found it really pleasant - for a beer! ;) Maybe it was because I was so thirsty though!

Since then, I have always been on the lookout for it here in the UK but have never found it, nor anything with a similar name.
