    I vote for this also. (not that my vote matters) but this is a great lineup. No taste "surprises" and will compliment almost any meal.

    mythos? I think he might want to class it up a bit.

    Just keep in mind that Greece is hot... so choose beers that you would drink on a hot day...

    I'm weird i could drink a heavy stout on a sunny day lol but I think I'm looking at all day sour/lambic lineup in the day time with a couple of big stouts for the evening.

    To explain my choices further:

    Weinenstephaner - a light wheat beer, perfect crispness for a hot day in Greece
    Cantillon - perfect alternative to wine
    Duvel - strong, but crisp, nice spice for a change of pace
    Fuller's ESB - great balance, great "pounder" for the heavier drinkers in your group (along with the Hefe)
    Mexican Cake - everyone needs cake at a wedding

    Perhaps add some Mythos - the Greek economy could use some propping up of local business (although they're owned by Carlsberg)

    Raging Bitch from Flying Dog- Get used to it now that your married, no seriously it's a very good Belgian style IPA
    Heady Topper from The Alchemist- great double IPA-just because
    Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA- Because your wedding will be 90 minutes of pure bliss and then some.
    Ballast Point- Victory at Sea, Coffee Vanilla Imperial Porter- Because you will obtain victory on the beach by marrying the woman you love.
    Sixpoint- Righteous Rye- because you're the right people for each other.

    Congratulations, and enjoy your first beer as a married man what ever it may be.
