2rd.

Heineken is the most over rated skunky pisswater ever made. Newcastle is particularly good on tap.

I should point out that he's criticizing people for spending $7+ on a whatever beer is being marketed as elite, yet I seem to recall his brew of choice is Sam Adams.

Started inhaling Marlboro's again with a dedicated passion. I also lit off a few fireworks out the back door last night at the yob. Shit from New Hampshire I had saved over from the 4th. Matter of fact, one of the bitches that was labeled "safe and sane" exploded with the force of an m-80. What a shock to be standing that close and get an unexpected BANG!

Anyway....Sunday night's my time to drink without worry, as I don't have to be into work until 3:30pm Monday. And usually I'm as groggy as a sloth at that time.


But onto the subject of beer:
I can't claim to be much of a beer snob lately. My swill of choice is MGD cans- mostly because it's cheap, the returnable machine at Stop & Shop accepts them, and I like the color of the cans.


If I had a choice for the choicest, I'll go with my favorite North Coast Brewery stuff. Still have a few Old Rasputins from my trip to Fort Bragg, CA. last March. They're a little too thick for this time of the year. But they also make a decent IPA- Red Seal Ale. Those are long gone and I sure could do for more.


Newcastle ain't bad for a mass-marketed Brit brew. I loathe Bass Ale, tho. A little too sweet.

But Sam Adams? I don't think it's the worst beer. But there's a lot better out there for eight bucks a six.

That's because nobody throwing a party in their right minds would buy anything more expensive than Bud or Quaff-, it just doesn't make economical sense.

The host didn't buy the beer. We brought our own.

I'd have to go with Negra Modelo in that situation.

While I'm a more jack/coke or meyer's/coke, I do enjoy a good beer. I am partial to IPAs, but pretty much any quality beer will do. My problem is I can't drink more than 2-3 of a god beer before I feel bloated and move to liquor.

I will say though that when spending a day doing yardwork, I hammer Miller Lites. Maybe it is the "bout like water factor". I dunno. But no way could I spend the day mowing/edging/weedeating/picking weeds/cuttin branches/etc. while gulping down a heavier beer. No chance in hell. But I can drink 15 Miller Lites and not feel a damn thing. It's more about refreshment on a day like that than taste. I don't think it tastes awful, nor great. Just enough to satisfy my thirst.

Not a "beer snob" here. You drink what you like, I'll drink what I like. I won't hold your taste (or lack thereof) against you. And what's wrong with discussing what you like?

I don't drink beer to get drunk. Anymore. In fact I really don't like getting drunk like I used to because it's no longer a buzz. At a certain point I just start feeling shitty, and the recovery the next day is a lot more painful than it used to be.

So...If I'm not drinking to get loaded I don't need to worry whether or not I can afford two sixpacks or not. Sure I can enjoy a MGD or Bud Lite once in a while. Corona or Model Especial tastes great with Mexican food. But I drink "good" beer because I like the taste. Why should I drink skunky smelling crap that tastes like piss, or even worse is not much more than slightly flavored carbonated water, if I can afford something that actually has a decent flavor?

You're not a beer snob, Mikey? You certainly appear to be giving a solid effort to be one. Don't want to be perceived as a beer snob, then stop making derogatory comments about the cheaper beers consumed by others. If you truly don't care what kind of beer others drink, then why would you be critical of their beer of choice and make it sound like you're something special because you drink more expensive beer? I might be able afford to drink "better beer" but I choose to drink the cheaper beers because I like them. Geez, talk about bad taste all you want, but you don't have to display bad taste in your assessments and judgments of others.
