Double Maxim (Double Maxim)

Double Maxim
Name: Double Maxim
Label: "All flavour, no flannel - Full of Northern Character - Premium brown ale"
Brewery: Double Maxim Beer Company
ABV: 4.7%

Rating: Still famous among discerning drinkers for its well-rounded flavour. Not sure where flannels come into it though.

Game: I can now confirm that Borderlands does indeed end. Enjoyable but straight on the trade pile. Something not quite right with it. Not sure what, and don't care now anyway. Rating: 7/10. Here ends my review.

Maximus (Double Maxim)

Maximus
Name: Maximus
Label: "National Award Winner - Strong Premium Ale"
Brewery: Double Maxim Beer Company Ltd
ABV: 6.0%

Rating: A strong warming beer that is also smooth and easy drink

Game: As previously posted, starting to clear the game decks in preparation for the arrival of Alan Wake in May. Completed HAWX on Normal difficulty (Normal strangely being the easiest setting in the list of difficulties). This is definitely the best of its kind on the Xbox 360 at the moment, ridiculous storyline but solid gameplay and a good variety of missions. The storyline in a nutshell (spoiler): you used to work for the US Government but now work for Artemis, a mercenary outfit. You do some contracts for the US, Artemis and US fall out, you rejoin with the US, Artemis takes over US and threatens nuclear holocaust, you save the world from the comfort of your cockpit. 8 / 10.
