good thing it isn't the real trebek. he wouldn't think anything is implied.

I remember hearing this question on a gameshow once or something like that and all I remembered Samuel Adams was in the answer. I typed it in so fast I forgot to mention triple bock. Ah well. Its all good. Im getting snake bitten today.

EDIT-@Kam BS hasnt told me Im right, yet.

just like harley davidson though, sam adams millenium probably isn't brewed anymore; seeing as how we're past the millenium.

Right!! I have done a web search now - I knew you wouldn't believe me!

Sam Adams is giving away a trip to Boston and a chance to sample Utopias with a brewer at the Sam Adams brewery.

Those wild and crazy guys at Boston Beer Co. have done it again, brewing a beer so strong they label it 48 proof, using terminology usually reserved for spirits. Sam Adams Utopias MMII, which goes on sale this month, is in fact 24% alcohol by volume, making it the strongest commercial beer in the world

I don't know if the link will work...

Dammit Ned, as soon as I'd posted the Lighthouse I saw the "sculptor" bit and knew it was the Colossus of Rhodes...

I think the colossus of Rhodes is the bronze statue of Helios. But ah well. Its all good.

my inspiration came from gwally's response. Honestly, I must confess, I had no idea. I'll presume I'm correct until BS says no.

My answer was Collossus.

Up next, Ned
