Beer And Beer Drinking

[Leo]

as mentioned previously, Budweiser is nun's piss but passable (barely) when no other options are available. if lite beer is the only option, leave immediately.

I like my lite beer.

Once a year I drink beer and then I get a 24-rack for $18.99 at the CVS down the street and drink it all over two days and then I don't drink until next year

is lite beer something american? have never heard of it.

 

[line b]

no, it's a horrible misjudgment. there is no decent "lite" beer. regular lagers have their place, lite beer has none, ever.

easy gramps

Wish I had some beer.

some people don't have discerning palettes. it's not a character flaw, just something they have no control over.

lots of Americans are obsessed with fitness and carbs/calories, and "lite" beers were invented to cater to that demand. personally, I'd rather drink one real 240-calorie beer than three cans of 90-calorie nun's piss, but that's just me.

They sell it in the shop

I think it's more that you grow into your palette. Children shun blue cheese, beer, coffee, olives etc.

It's cider or Guinness for me now when I cycle to some remote country pub. If I have ale, something goes wrong in my hindgut.

Every once in awhile, you run across a health hack that totally changes the game. For me, one of those is eye-stretching.

I'll let you do your own research on the best methods, but basically you close your eyes, and push your eyes the farthest right, left, up, down, etc as you can.

Ale makes you shit yourself?

Ale makes you shit yourself?

No, but it ripens the gusts beyond what is even personally acceptable. I'm talking swamp gas and crypt whiffs. Bad yeast magic.

The worst beer for farts is Bass. It's the sulphur in the Burton well water.

 

[Mr. Tea]

I had a heavy session on Bass once during a big family party. My brother and I each had a sofa to sleep on in our uncle's living room. He was ready to kill me the next morning, lol.

Just got a pack of these, and while I think I tried it before it made much more of an impact this time. Very good. Not sure what distinguishes doppelbock or bock, but I think there is something counterintuitive about it, like that it is a dark lager when most dark ones are ales, or some such. Anyway, one of my favorites now.

Searched for moretti on the forum, and saw much love from @Corpsey but I'm not sure if it was the Rossa/doppelbock in particular.

 

[constant escape]

I've got four left and I plan on savoring them.

Also a small keg of Warsteiner German Pilsner, which I haven't tried. I did, however, try Warsteiner oktoberfest on draft a few years back, and that became my favorite all time. Not sure where it would stand now.

edit: that is, for a small family oktoberfest celebration, although I suspect our timeframe is a bit off.

I assume you took this photo in the spring? They're solitary for most of the year and only swarm like that in the mating season.
