Charlie, unless things have changed a WHOLE lot, you'll find in milliseconds 
that the Spaniards, like the Italians, really don't have their hearts into 
beer-making.... your choices will be German imported beer, or local wine 
(both pretty darn good). FYI, there are 26 bodegas in & around Seville and 
the owners will do most anything for you. Like make a 'special' run of labels 
on 125 cases of 12-yr-old brandy we brought back in the '60s on Uncle Sam's 
nickel. They were labelled 'red table wine'....went thru customs at 11 cents 
a bottle duty! Cheers- J DeRyke
