Until recently Full Sail Session exemplified my view of pre-prohibition brewing: all-grain, modestly-sized lager. Even shifting over to ales, I figured they would be low-abv bitters. If nothing else the ingredient costs needed to be kept low. But maybe for preservation and to mask crappy - literally! - water, the beers were sometimes, maybe often, much bigger and more hopped. Lots to learn! Keep the research coming!

Many times I have rejoiced at a realization / a conclusion unique in the time-space continuum. Ie, I know something that no one else has known for scores of years. I look forward to you sharing some of the new found knowledge; knowledge saved from the abyss of forgotten history.
