Tequila and Beer
Had one of my most memorable hang-overs from that combo.
I'm guessing that's why Anheuser/Busch isn't selling too much of that "Tequisa" tequila/beer concoction....tastes like ass!

Corona. Why would you drink a beer that needs a lime to make it drinkable?

Umm...Ahhhh...it was only an
assumption on my part....
Anyway....Check this out next time you're in buying beer (or near a beer cooler for you under 21's). Pick up a six of Corona and check out the different levels in the beer bottles, I've seen better than a 1/2" difference in the amount of beer from one bottle to the next....makes you go "Hmmmm" <_<

Corona has it's place- on a beach and it's 90.
Real beer has some color, flavor and an alcohol content over 3%.
I'm not particular to any brand, try to get stuff that is local and brew my own.
Matter of fact that sounds good right about now, think I'll have one of those brown ales I brewed last spring.

Limes are placed on top of beers to keep the flys out of them. I always get a chuckle when someone jams their lime inside the bottle.

Budwizer should be poured back into the horse, and leave the world a better place.
Now, a good combo is Tequila, Salt, and a lime, just the way the Aztecs did it, before carving out the still beating heart of some poor sap.
Don't think the Aztecs had Tequila? You know how many steps the pyramid of the sun had? You going to think a sober man thought that up?

Red Stripe. Nothing like a Red Stripe with a lime on a hot day by the pool.

We have good up here, come on up and I'll buy the first one! Your bud isn't that bad. I agree with the Corona comments 100 %, I own a bar and I charge premium price for it cause of the lime, they want to shove down the neck which gets stuck and then they can't get a good mouthful and so on....... When I was in Germany Worsteiner was probably the best beer I had ever tasted but I'm no expert.

I drink Bud Light while working on the car...don't want to get hammered too fast. An add benefit is the frequent trips you'll have to make to the urination station. When it starts looking like two people are "bleeding the brakes"

I too brew my own
That is the one thing that seems to ring true with all my brewing. No matter what kind it is it just seems smoother that what you get in the stores. Must be less perservatives.
Currently working on a fall ale - wheat with raspberry / black cherry

Beer and coffee should both be too thick to see through and, in the appropriate vessel, be able to double as a welding lens in a pinch.
I have a friend in Iraq...hope he comes back soon...Guiness awaits!

This place usually gets me motivated to do something on my 914 who would have thought that it would get me motivated to brew some beer.
Summer is coming to an end (we got snow on the mountains last weekend) so that means time to get out the brewing stuff. I think I will make a nice porter, I like to put a little coffee in it for some added flavor and body. You definitely can't see through it.
I'll let you know how it turns out in about a month.

Beer that needs hard alcohol added to it isn't beer IMHO. Corona is well - pretty lame by itself, and in a pinch can be used as a tonic substitute.
Some of my favorite beers:
Full Sail Amber
Brooklyn Brewery Ommegang
Red Hook Ale
Sierra Nevada
Chimay Blue and Red
Perhaps we could figure out say 5-10 frontrunner beers to be entered in a poll?

i'd say early alzheimer ...
it sure is not. it is, however, one of the larger brands with a lot of recognition, but certainly one of the better beers.
if you want cheap, buy "Hansa Pils". a can goes for around 50 cents.
we also call it "Punker-Beer" because the punks buy it by the pallet (24 cans) all the time.
in fact, we used to have "1000 Can" parties frequently...

Ever heard of a Radler (sp?) I can't remember if it is a brand or the name of the actual drink. Tasted pretty good on some long hot hikes in Germany many years ago. Low alcohol content, I think it was beer but mixed with something else.

If the poll is unofficially started I nominate Keiths to be in the top ten. I don't think any one beer can truly win top spot as when you are dealing with taste it comes down to personal preference, any of the top ten could be the legitimate # 1. Be happy to buy the first one to any member who comes up this way!

Here's something I picked up a while ago. If you have some cheap beer, pour an ounce or two of Bacardi Lemon into it. Gives you a nice lemon taste, and effectively doubles or triples the alcohol content of the beer. Drink in moderation, because it goes down fast, and things can get out of control pretty quickly (ask me how I know
)
Oh ya, I'm a cheap a-hole. This was something friends and I would do in University to get drunk cheaply and quickly. I have much more refined tastes now.
