Beer!
Black Isle Brewery
Link: www.blackislebrewery.com

Vital resource for any decent comics discussion. The Black Isle Brewing Co is a small intensely independent brewery in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. Its mission (you know you want to chose to accept it!): produce a range of top quality organic beers packaged in recycled materials. The barley and hops used are grown on organic farms, without artificial fertilisers or herbicides, best for both you and the environment. Thoroughly recommended, and you can buy a case online...
