Nothing beats a couple of king cobras when you’re short on money…lol
New Belgium, and Schell’s is what I fuck with.
St. Ides is my malt liquor of choice. If the Wu Tang Clan, Biggie Smalls, and Elliott Smith all recommend the same 40, who am I to question it?
I really like 1554, but I don’t fuck with much other New Belgium stuff. I have this weird thing with New Belgium where I always realize I would rather have gotten the O’Dell equivalent of whatever I’m drinking. Fat Tire? Shit, why didn’t I get 90 Shilling?
I had a friend’s ex-girlfriend stay at my place in San Francisco when I was living there and she was a hippie so of course poor. She bought herself King Kobra when we went out to grab some beers but she left a can when she went back home. I had it when I didn’t have anything else to drink and HOLY SHIT that stuff is AIDS.
Hey, yo, shit ain’t that bad. King Kobra is fine.
Also, I made the most money of my life during the time I lived as a hippie.
Promethazine/Codeine cough medicine new formulas?

7% Alcohol.
Double Cups = alcoholic drinks??
dude you need to get at me on kakao or something, there are lots of place with quality beer in hbc/itae.
Yuengling has the super heavy flavor that I enjoy the hell out of. It’s not a good everyday beer either, it’s more of a good ‘tasting’ type beer that you gotta be able to relax and slowly finish it off to really enjoy.
I’d drink 2 everyday if I could.
How is that new Miller Fortune?
It’s shit.
Yuengling is a great cheap beer. One that I hold up as an example to all other cheap beers to be. If you’re going to make a lager and skimp on ingredients to save costs, you just aren’t doing it right. Still, Yuengling isn’t better than Session Black, which is also cheap and probably the best cheap lager you can get. It’s so good that it sells out almost everywhere and all you can find is the horrible Session Red.
I should go on a beer run today. I don’t think I’m leaving my apartment once work is done so I should just play Dead Space for the rest of the night.
@thurst, PM me your kakao ID, man.
I still haven’t tried Yuengling. I was kind of surprised to discover it’s not a Chinese beer, because the name sounded like one.
I’ve got a couple lagers on standby just in case I can’t find a good ale, but I usually despise lager with a passion.
I do hear good things about Yuengling though.
Yuengling is an american beer, which is surprising considering all the cheap beer we have in america is equal to piss water
Trying one right now. Left work with 39-49 free beers; probably 6-7 different kinds.
Fortune isn’t too bad. It’s dark, and not too hoppy. Have you had Bud Lite Platinum? The higher abv is noticeable in Fortune the way it is in that. That almost vodka-kind of taste.
At the end of the day, you can get higher abv and (arguably) better taste for less money. Cool bottle, though. Spades have always been my suit, too.
Traveler has a grapefruit shandy out that I’m anxious to try. I had some Magic Hat IPA last night. Terrible by default, but not bad as far as IPAs go.
havent had beer in ages. Last beer i drank regularly was dos X. I recently had an apple cider beer (a sip really) and it was ok and Damn Durara (gluten free spanish ipa? beer) that was only good while ice cold. havent tried bud plat, i did used to like bud select (is that still around?). I dont like beer tasting, i find one and stick with it.
Sweet. I live in Minneapolis, and craft beer is booming here. I like Surly, Schells, Summit is ok, hate Indeed, and my favorite (other than Hitachi No Nest or La Fin Du Monde) is the crazy shit Magic Hat comes up with. Lagunitas is hit-or-miss, with me, but I loved their recent red ale (don’t remember the name.)
I currently have 20 gallons fermenting of my own, one an imperial steam beer (california common) which measured 25 bricks (high alcohol) and smelled just divine. Mainly I kept the hop additions simple and tried to use Vienna malt (in lieu of Munich malt) to its fullest. The Vienna malt smells delicious to me while brewing, and I can pretty much pick the scent out whenever it’s the main ingredient, despite the common opinion that it’s simply a secondary form of Munich, which I also like.
The second(5 gallons out of the 20) is a brown ale which was supposed to be 15 gallons but everything froze in -20 degree temps while we were brewing outside in Minneapolis. It was kind of a disaster but shit happens. I also burned the leg of my winter flannel-lined pants when I took my shoes off, dried my socks under the burner, put my feet by the fire, and basically hugged the boiling kettle for warmth. My leg got caught on fire. But, anyway, I have low expectations for the brown ale (which uses ale yeast, unlike the steam beer which uses lager yest) because we didn’t roast the oats as it was the last thing on our fucking minds when we were out there freezing our bits off.
I don’t know who you are, @Darknid, but ship me a taste of your home brew if you have some to spare.
@regulate, you had apple cider beer or apple cider? one of the few things europe definitely has going for it over america is (hard) cider. shit is awesome, if you can get your hands on some magners or bulmers definitely do, fucking delicious.
Hard ciders taste like carbonated juice almost. It’s a feel good taste if you just want a super light tasting beer. Too bad you’d probably want 3 bottles at a time before you even start to feel anything.
Bulmers is chill but I def think you need a bit of a sweet-tooth for cider. It’s kinda in champagne territory for me in that I’d only drink it at a brunch or something.
