This would go well with the Jamaican beer Red (magnetic) Stripe.

It could make focusing difficult...even without a projector!

4.8% is too slow speed for me and those lenses look really long shot Dominique.

How about some (Bell &) Howe(ll) Sound:
Howe Sound
Canadian Company. They have some good running speeds. [Smile]

How about this?

https://www.muscleology.com/product/super8/

However, I see that the ratio is given as '8:1:1' - what an odd screen size!

Then there's this:

Or some dubious film cleaner:

Like the Beer, Wet'n'Wild:

Or maybe for Jaws:

In Britain I'd suggest Scribbler's Brewery "One Brew over the Cuckoo's Nest" and Great Oakley's "Titfield Thunderbolt".

There are also a couple of "Reel Ales" one only brewed for a local cinema.

Santé, Alexander ;-)

Melvin, there is also a green version (the difference is that the green one is stronger) :-)

Of course that green one is NOT the sort of IPA you can clean films with. And if you drink too much of it you may find it hard to focus the projector :-)

I remember at last years Blackpool Convention dinner Dominique was kind
enough to carry a case of super 8 beer all the way from Belgium and donate it as one of the prizes for the raffle, it went down well with the guests, especially the lucky winner thanks Dom...

Thanks for remembering it, David. The Blackpool Convention certainly deserves support from all of us [Smile]

If you're looking for something a touch healthier, a spot in New York's Central Park sells a similarly titled fruit juice.

Personally, I would rather have the beer.
