Please check your religious & political arguments at the door.

My favorite is Fosters, what's yours?

See, and I'm not even going to attack you and call you names because you like a different beer than I do. Just one of the many reasons why beer is better than religion.

Ah another discriminating beer drinker! Just about the only beer (other than the really cheap & nasty stuff) that I don't like is Coors.

I'm a big fan of Shiner Bock too. Hands down that's the best U.S. brewed beer IMHO.

What is the malted liquor.
What gets you drunker quicker?
What comes in bottles or in cans?
Can't get enough of it,
How we really love it,
Makes me think I'm a man,
I can kiss and hug it,
But I'd rather chug it,
Fill my belly up to here,
I could not refuse a,
I could really use a,
Beer, beer, beer.

I can't remember how much I have had,
I drank a twelve pack with my dad, BURP!
That's my son the drunken manly stud,
I'm proud to be his bud,
Here have some pretzels,
No!
I'll call it quits,
Those things give me the Schlitz!

Drink with your family,
Drink it with your friends,
Drink till you're fat,
Stomach distends,
Beer is liquid bread it's good for you,
We like to drink till we spew,
EW
Who cares if we get fat,
I'll drink to that,
As we sing once more.

What is the molted liquor,
What gets you drunker quicker,
What comes in bottles or in cans (beer)
Can't get enough of it,
How we really love it,
Makes me think I'm a man,
I can kiss and hug it,
But I'd rather chug it,
Fill my belly up to here,
Golly I adore it,
Come on dammit pour it,
Do it for me,
Brew it for me,
Feed it to me,
Speed it to me.

The most wonderful drink in the world.
Hooray.

COORS LIGHT BABY..

If any of you drink coors light next time you at a bar ask for a Werewolf Killer you will get the craziest look youve ever seen. Good times

namzep · « **Reply #9 on:** May 23, 2005, 01:28:53 pm »

I'll generally have a Sam Adams Boston Ale or a Pyramid Apricot Ale. If I'm drinking the cheaper stuff, I'll generally have a Bud Light (though Coors Light is alright).

Sam Adams

Good stuff. Kind of hard to find around here though.

I've recently become something of a fan of XX Amber, and for the most part I really dislike Mexican beer. That's good stuff though, try one next time you're in a Mexican restaraunt.

From my experience there is no such thing as a bad beer,

Some are just better than others.............

Guinness is crap. It tastes like pine tar, like chewing on an old batting glove.

-S

A shandy is half lager and half white lemonade. And by white lemonade, I mean Sprite, 7up or Sierra Mist.

Now that I think of it, when I was a kid parents would let kids drink Coke with a splash of Guinness in pubs, maybe that's what he meant by 'Guinness shandy'.

Lemonade and Beer.

Here' a few others;

Black and Tan - Stout and Beer

Porter Gaff - Stout and Lemonade

Black Velvet - Stout and Champagne

My favourite local beer (Australian) is Coppers Ale or Coppers Stout.

My favourite foreign beers are both from Belgium, Leffe Brune (Dark) or Hoegaarden. Mmmmmm beer.

Man, those Belgiums know how to make beer.

Is this shandy deal just an Aussie thing? Any Americans familiar with that? I have to say that lemonade & beer sounds a bit icky to me.

Yeah, we have Shandy's up here in the GWN. We actually mix em with Gingerale (half and half), but only the Women drink em that way...

The real men like them room temperature....Mmmmmmmmm

BTW: I like Red Cap Ale, Snappa Cappa....

In Europe and Australia, lemonade is what Americans call lemon and lime soda, like Sprite.

Guinness-Puke

SOMETIMES you just want a good old fashion Budweiser.

Edit......Added caps for effect.

JoyMonkey · « **Reply #30 on:** May 23, 2005, 03:34:31 pm »

All canned and bottled Guinness should be put out of its misery. Even those ones with the CO2 widget. They're the reason most people think so badly of Guinness.

If you've never had a real pint of Guinness - with the correct proportions of nitrogen and co2 injected as it pours and the tap line less that 24" long, without the export preservatives - you're missing out.

Zakk · « **Reply #31 on:** May 23, 2005, 03:57:05 pm »

I dunno, I sat of the deck and drank it, and it was just fine. I bit tangy for my tastes, but fine.

I don't think someone who prefers a 4% water-beer should be so judgemental tommy

...do I have a bud in the fridge here? Hmmm, dang no I don't, I'll substitute a hmm...nope, oops I have a Grolsh. I'll have that instead. This could be painful in the morning if this keeps up.

ChadTower · « **Reply #32 on:** May 23, 2005, 04:01:02 pm »

budweiser is worse than Guinness, but at least it's only a diet soda.

XX Amber

Had it a few times and it's probably my favorite of the Mexican beers. Guiness and St Pauli Girl (especially the Dark) are both quite good as well.

shmokes · « **Reply #34 on:** May 23, 2005, 04:23:16 pm »

You don't have to go all the way to Guiness, just get a decent beer like Dos Equis or St. Pauli Girl. Budweiser and Michelob....that stuff is no good. When I want to drink a beer I want to have a beer or maybe two or three if I'm partying. No way I'm going to down a six or twelve pack in a day. That's just stupid and will make you fat and ugly and miserable. If you want to drink a lot, drink a lot of water. If you want to get drunk switch to liquor or wine. If you want to drink beer, drink something tasty in moderation.

....or even if you're going to drink enough to get ugly and fat and unhealthy, still drink something tasty.

A Yuengling Lager for me please!

Generic Eric · « **Reply #37 on:** May 23, 2005, 06:01:30 pm »

Anymore, for myself, I buy miller lite. I used to drink alot of ice house. I also like Heinekin. I have a friend I drink Guiness with sometimes. We drink black and tans with bass on those days.

Lately we have been drinking with beers that complement meals, or at least when we eat mexican, we drink caronas.

When I went to maryland (I think) we drank that Yuengling, that was good. I am a fan a all beers though. Shiner is good as well.
