Michelob Light. Brew my own occasionally and like to visit microbreweries as well.

If anyone is interested there is a convention in Asheville North Carolina late summer/early fall. The Southeastern Microbrewery Association gets together and sets up over 250 beers for the entry price of a $20 ticket. You get a glass and all you can drink. Lots of key chains, t-shirts, coasters... you know... beer stuff. Nice little get together, food vendors and Bluegrass Music. I will post when they announce the next date. I believe it would be the fourth or fifth one this coming year.

I'm with you dark beer guys. Or Grolsch, the one with the wire cap. GOOOD Stuff! Lite beer has no taste. I guess it is ok if you are in the mood to drink 8 or 10 of them at a time, just to catch a buzz. Or it is ok in the summer time, out on the lake, in the heat, iced down good. Hell, what am I saying? I love lite beer, but I LOVE dark beer!

I asked my bartender about when he cuts me off.
He said, "You come in here ordering Budweiser. When you start ordering butt-wiper I send you home."

(From now on, I point to the bottle and grunt.)

I usually think that Madison Avenue advertising is just all crap but, I got to give credit this time.
I don't like Samual Adams beer. I've had one and couldn't finish it and that's rare for me.

Someone gave me the new Samual Adams Lite that they have been advertising on TV. The ads show the guy trying the beer for the first time and screaming causing people around him to do bad things...

The beer is actually good. The Lite doesn't have the aftertaste that regular has.

In rereading this old thread I saw that ATST couldn't get a buzz from Sam Adams and this concerns me.

Raoul,

I had one of those last night while I was giving out candy to the little screaming monsters at my front door. It was not very good, at least to me.

Luckily, nobody did any "bad things."

BOB

Question

Bob, that is why this thread mystifies me so.

I mean, it's as if everyone has different tastes.

I don't drink alot of beer. Just every now and then I'll drink a Bud or a Coor's. But one time I drank a fifth of Vodka straight up in under 30 seconds. That's the drunkest I've ever been in my life!

canyonslicker, i don't know if it's because how far you went in schoolin' or just the nature of the California education system as a whole.

But, let me give some some learin' right here. If somebody offers me my choice of a can, a bottle or a keg, I'm gonna take the keg everytime.

Raoul,
I happen to have all three in my fridge in the garage . I usually go for the can first, then the bottle if there are no cans left and as a last resort or party the keg is it. Education?? What's that ? Never heard of such a notion...ahh kids these days...

My mistake. Anybody whose got beer in their garage(to include a keg) is smarter than me.

I don't have anyplace to keep beer so, I just run into 7-Eleven and grab a six pack. I only do this when the old fat guy is working because that young guy will run me down. I have to chuck bottles at him to keep him off me and most times I end up with just a two-pack.

He just doesn't realize that while he's chasing me down the street somebody might be stealin' something from his store. I try to explain this to him but, I just too out of breath.

Anyways, forgit about that schoolin' stuff. Maybe someday when I die and go to Heaven I'll have a garage with a keg in it.

My usual beer of choice is either Rickard's Red or Kootney Pale but the favorite beer of all time is from a microbrewery in Victoria BC called Spinnakers - India Pale Ale - over 7% and smooth as silk...

Damn... now I feel like making a roadtrip down to Victoria!
