To some extent, yes. I accept your (well-written, and interesting) beer epic
as valid IYG, but IMG I like to meet the kind of drink I like (stout and
malt whisky) in the region I play in (Heortland, and sometimes southern
Sartar). Don't make Genertela a bleak and dry place with no real drink (list
following: wine, gin, koomiss, sweet ale... one of these days we will
discover Char-Un vodka and Vadeli rum in Sartar, but will still lack uisge
beatha...)
I can speak only for myself, but I think that I will be joined by Alex and
David Gadbois at Convulsion3D for an inofficial Sartarite Whisky seminar (in
continuation of the Stahleck one)...

Talking about which, I would have admired that position in the anti-Aeolian
crusade...
Look, I am not sensitive wrt other people's Glorantha without any decent
booze, but I know I am not alone on the good-stuff side among the Manirian
Orlanthi, either. Let's agree to disagree...
