The Beer Discussion Bar > Beer is good. Good beer is better.
well then!
I'll just have to take one of each ...
... to ensure that I get the right one!
I like beer.
I'm perusing the political internet blather with a tall schooner of Boddington's Pub Ale to keep me company. Yuuummmm.
Announcement:
I am out of beer at home. Care packages gratefully accepted. Please, no "Lite" or "Light" crapola; only real beer.
That is all.
i stumbled upon a Leinenkugel sale at our local grocer...
.. . $4.00/6 pack!! I'm good for a little while!
($100 later)
they even had some Big Butt left!!
Old Monkeyshine at Nimbus Brewery here in Tucson. A nice healthy 8%, one imperial pint usually does it for and/or too me.
GREAT NEWS-er I think-well maybe not so great-it,s now cheaper by the gallon for my favorite beer-Milwaukees worst ice beer than it it is for a gallon of unleaded regular-I currently pay 12.99 for a 30 pack F.W.I.W.
Somehow it seems fitting to compare Old Smellwaukee to gasoline.
<grin>
But I remember college (way back in the dark ages) when we poor students could get a case of longneck Old Mil for $2.00 and change with bottle return. Yes, children, back in the olden days beer bottles were returnable.
have you guys noticed a rapid rise in Fat Tire being served on draft in your area... it seems to be everyhwere here as of late.... a bitter-sweet feeling for me due to the fact that it's replaced alot of GREAT beers (like Smithwick's, Bent River and many many more micro-brews) that were formerly served.
Oh well... either way I'll drink the shit out of it!
I recently tried Peroni, an Italian import. Most Italian beers leave me a bit cold, but Peroni is a light pilsner that has just the right edge of hoppy taste for a "change of pace" beer.
This isn't one I'd buy by the case, but it's a pretty good "cleanse your palate" beer when you're spending the evening at a bar. (I'm one of those beer lovers who'll sample 8-10 different beers in the course of an evening.)
I'd give it a strong C+...as long as we're talking about very cold draft Peroni. I wasn't as impressed with the bottled variety.
I bought a little mini-keg of Kostriker the other day for our road trip home... we killed like our names were Manson, Gacy, Bundy, Gein, Bonnie and Clyde... yummay... A-


Discuss.
Ok, that about covers it.
