The Sam Adams Rebel IPA is a genuine fucking hop monster.

There is no escape, you will all be Oregonized.



(yesterday I had some awesome wines at a couple of tastings. serious snobbery, so I'll shut up.)

Mad Dog wrote: I look at beer the same way I look at food. Its all in the quality of the ingredients and how well its prepared. I don't want to eat McDonald's or Burger King and don't want to drink PBR or Natty Ice. I'd rather get something that I at least have a chance of enjoying. I don't care if that makes me a food/beer snob. Its my choice to make.


I get this when it comes to mixing drinks and food. Crap goes in, crap goes out. If I'm making a Vodka Gimlet I want to use a great brand of Vodka. I'd rather eat a ribeye from a steakhouse rather than some piece of overcooked leather at Apple Bees.

However, with beer it doesn't seem to matter as much to me. I can drink Miller High Life, Natty Ice, Coors Light...they all go down easy. They don't wow me, but I'd drink it. If someone offered me one I wouldn't turn my nose up at it. I've come across more craft beers that are borderline undrinkable than I ever have with the mass produce stuff like Bud or Coors.

Also, for Jay718 who besmirched the good name of 'Gansett' beer at Conn Con...I offer you this:



Go watch Jaws...Quint is ripping on Gansett beers (with the pull tabs!) throughout the whole damn film. If it's good enough for an imaginary shark hunter...it's good enough for me.

I love a good beer, bourbon, or tequila. That being said, I'm the kind of guy who if out on a tear might enjoy 20+ drinks in a night when you factor in shots ordered with beers. I like to start out with something nice. If I'm having dinner, perhaps a manhattan or an old fashioned or two before the food comes, and a few beers when it does. Afterwards, I'll have a digestif such as Fernet Branca or a nice bourbon neat. The same goes for just a night out drinking. I'll start out with a nice draught or a top shelf bourbon or tequila for my first few.

From there on in its bud bottles and Jim beam shooters if I'm not on the tequila of course, in which case it's generally sauza blanco. That usually carries me through til the wee hours. My favorite beer for the last year or so and a best seller in two of my three bars is a German black lager by the name of Kostritzer. It's black as hell, comes in a sexy glass that it basically sells itself in, and for a black beer, is light enough that it goes with anything. Try it if you get a chance. Also, Narragansett and Yuengling are fucking garbage. And apparently schweig is a cunt.

Drinking Dale's Pale Ale. Love it. High gravity pale ale with just the right balance of tasty hops and drinkability. It doesn't pretend to be an IPA.

Kostritzer is fantastic. I've slurped many of those in a little Saint Paul German place.

My wife just dropped off a 'paleo' margarita:
2oz of Sauza Blanco
juice of a lime
stevia to taste,
over a double old fashioned glass filled with ice, and topped-up with soda water.
garnish with a wedge of the lime peel, and you've got rather a tasty 'adult lime-ade'

I love this woman!

Biggest hurdle these days is we just finished moving into a new home, and haven't found the box with the CO2 cartridges & cart-holder for the soda-charger! :S

My friend introduced me to the no mix margarita, I'm never going back. Just gotta be careful as they are a real ass kicker.

3 part good tequila (this is key, since there's no sticky ass sugar in the drink)
2 part triple sec
1 part lime juice

Voila.

That's how I make mine, which is rare. For the lime juice I use those plastic frozen cans of Minute Maid juice and make a big batch.

I kickstarted some artisan strawberry and lime Kool-Aid. Can't wait to flip it on eBay.
