With their bumper stillattached to the chain. Withtheir vehicle's license plate still attachedto the bumper.

Yesterday I picked up Marionberry Hibis-cus Gose brewed by Widmer BrothersBrewing in Portland, Oregon. This beeris another member of their 924 Series,which have been mostly pretty strong. Thelabel says this was brewed with corian-der, marionberries and hibiscus. "Perfect-ing the Art of Tart" also leads me to be-lieve this will have some pucker power.Bottled May 8, 2012.

Dark pink to maroon color, with a hint ofneon in there. Loads of banana accompanysome berry and wheat scents. This smellsa little like Yankee Candle Shop, prettynice. Again with the rich banana flavorsopening things up, but that is quickly an-swered by some tart berry. The corianderis also noticeable right from the start.

Another flavor starts out slow but growsand grows. Tastes like vegetation andearth, perhaps flower petals, so I guessthat's the hibiscus they added. It's a littleweird and as the flavor builds, it becomesa little undesirable. Wheaty thick texture;carbonation could have been a little bitbetter. Just an OK beer though there arepoints for being interesting.


Frankfurt am Main, 21 August 2012 - Three exciting new highlights of the Aston Martinmodel range are embarking on an ambitious European tour. In an unprecedentedcombination, the British builder of luxury sports cars presents for the first time together theAston Martin Vanquish, V12 Zagato and the V12 Vantage Roadster at selected locationsacross Europe.

Under the headline of “Power, Beauty and Soul” the exceptional sports car trio stops at 27Aston Martin dealerships in nine countries, where the cars will be exhibited in showroomsor at other selected locations as stars of exclusive customer events.

“The feedback from customers on this campaign has been overwhelming, as this will be thefirst opportunity for them to see these three sports cars together,” says Jeffrey L. Scott,Managing Director of Aston Martin Lagonda of Europe. “Each of the three models is veryspecial in its own way. Now, all three superb sports cars on show together at the same timeperfectly represent our brand’s core values of ‘Power, Beauty and Soul’. This tourpromises to be a true highlight for us and our dealers across Europe.”

Leading this spectacular trio is the Aston Martin Vanquish, the new Super GT, which is setto enter the market in Europe in the autumn. The Vanquish is the new flagship of the AstonMartin sports car range. With its 6.0-litre V12 engine, that brings 573 PS at 6,750 rpm, itwill be the most powerful production car of the British luxury manufacturer. In addition toits performance the Vanquish also impresses with its breath-taking design, which hasalready been honoured with awards, as well as a new intelligent control centre console andnoticeably more generous interior space. The first customer cars will be delivered inEurope towards the end of 2012.

Sharing the limelight will be the Aston Martin V12 Zagato, designed to celebrate the 50thanniversary of the partnership between Aston Martin and the famous Italian design houseZagato. At its world premiere at the Concorso D’Eleganza of Villa D’Este in May 2011,the V12 Zagato won the Design Award in the category Concept Cars and Prototypes and,just a few weeks later, it competed successfully in its first endurance test at the 24-hourrace at the Nurburgring. This summer, production of the series begins at Aston Martin’sheadquarters in Gaydon. Limited to no more than 101 vehicles – the time-consuminghandcraftsmanship used to create the new car is similar to that used in the production ofthe now sold-out One-77 supercar. The first customer deliveries of the V12 Zagato, pricedat £ 330,000 (plus local taxes), begin this autumn.

Completing the trio of star sports cars touring Europe is the V12 Vantage Roadster, theconvertible version of the most potent Vantage that has been eagerly awaited by customers.With its 6.0-litre V12 engine, intelligently packaged into the Vantage Roadster’s compactchassis, the V12 Vantage Roadster generates 517 PS at 6,500 rpm and 570 Nm of torque at5,750 rpm and combines the breathtaking sports car feeling of the V12 Vantage with themaximum fun that a roadster can offer.
