    Synthetic blend

    Talking about beer. I am a Sam Adams Boston Lager man. But have recently tried Sam Adams "Octoberfest" which is only available in late September/early October timeframe and then, it's gone. Put it in a frosted mug and you're in Heaven. Try it in September, 2021, you'll not regret it.

    Thanks all. The product that I was looking at was MaxLife Dex/Merc LV (multi-veh),. I don't intend to use a chemical agent, merely a full fluid exchange.
