Thanks og. The Fat Tyre is not a bad drop as far as US beers go. But being an AC, I am assuming this was only available via the drink vouchers for QP members, and of course the vouchers don't include the tip

What a corker, wine in a can
By Jeff Collerson
June 9, 2004
WE'VE had it in bottles, flagons and casks - now get ready for wine in cans.
Barokes, a range of wines in 250ml aluminium cans, will go on sale in New South Wales in September for $3.99 each....
Brisbane-based Master of Wine, Peter Scudamore-Smith, who is responsible for blending the tipples, said: "This is our version of RDTs (ready to drink).
"We call them RDTWs - ready to drink wines.
"Out in September will be a chardonnay and a cabernet sauvignon/shiraz blend, each available in still and sparkling form.
"They have been a huge success in Japan and are now in over 1000 convenience stores there."
He said it was planned to increase the line-up soon.
"Because people are hardly likely to cellar wines in cans they must be ready for immediate drinking." Mr Scudamore-Smith said.
The company had also started talks with the aviation industry, with airlines showing an interest.

They also dragged out another couple of nice reds after Dave left the F lounge at LHR (the staff obvioulsy cautious after seeing the "damage" done to the JW Blue 
) Brunello di Montalcino 95 and a Chateau Desmirail Margaux 96. The beers at BA's FCO Lounge included Guiness, Birra Tourtel, Bud, Carlsberg Elephant and Nastro Azuro ^ . Today at the Flagship in BOS beers include Sam Adams Lager, Light and Summer Ale as well as Heineken, Bud, Corona, Guiness and Amstel Light. Accept my appologies for not listing all other options.

Yikes! Fosters on tap in the AC at DFW!!! I'm keeping my voice down as I take no responsibility for that brew. Apart from that, on tap you'll find Shiner Bock (Lance Armstrong's one weakness) ^ , Michelob Reg and Light as well as Bud. As you cast your eye to the fridges you could chose a bottle of Miller Light, Bud Light, Coors Light, Amstel Light, Corona or Heineken. I think I'll try the Bock.
