Oh, and something else that may interest you; I was reading through the Demon Princes over the summer and came across this excerpt in "The Face":
"Gersen went to the bar. A shelf to the rear displayed a multitude of beer mugs, imprinted with as many emblems. Gersen saw a number of familiar labels: Vergence and True Companion from Alphanor; Obladense and Old Subterranean from Copus, Smade’’s Own from Smade’’s Planet; Bass Ale, Hinano, Tusker, Anchor Steam from Earth; Mahogany Select from Derdyra, Edelfrimpschen from Bogardus: Gersen felt himself in the presence of old friends. In the spirit of the time and place he requested a flask of the local brew, Hangry's White Ale, which he found eminently palatable."

Naturally I wondered if the Earth beers were actually extant. I checked and they are! I even managed to try three of them (the Hinano--a Tahitian beer--isn't available nearby but is in CA).
