It was the same night in Paris shared by one pair of lovers, with two different memories and two different beers - one light and one dark. While staying in Paris at the Hotel Opera Cadet, both Jack and Allié wrote each other post cards on this particular evening...

"And while we may not always be in Paris drinking pints, we can always drink pints with the memory of Paris." - Allié
