    1. Happy Birthday!
    2. Lucky you. :mrgreen:
    3. Can't remember the exact name, but it's a woodchuck cider beer--the ones in the green bottles were better to me than the regular ones. I just remember this because I could find them when I lived in New Orleans but I can't find them here, and they were yummy.
    Enjoy your days!!!!!!

    Happy Birthday!

    It's summer - try out a pilsner. Light in color with a spright, hoppy flavor and very refreshing. Victory Prima Pils, Sly Fox Pikeland Pils (it's in cans), Troegs Sunshine Pils, Stoudt's Pils, Penn Pilsner - you should be able to find one of these. Brooklyn Brewery might have one too - since you're up that way. Enjoy! Be careful tonight. 8-)

    not really. lots of stouts and porters have chocolate tints. Those types of beers are my favorites. Guinness is so good.

    Enjoy your birthday.

    Be careful with that one. About 9% alcohol I believe.

    True. Most of the time I drink beer I have stuff between 9-11%.

    Yuengling is great. I wish they sold it here in Utah.

    Happy Birthday by the way!!

    If you drink cheap stuff, it'll be hard not to make an improvement. Even if you buy Heineken, or Blue Moon, or something like that.

    Personally though, I'm a fan of micro-brewed beers. I think they are much better on the taste buds.

    The best part about being able to buy it legally now is that you can certainly try as many beers as you want. So have fun, and enjoy. Beer is an amazing thing.

    Also, just a tid-bit of info... Salt Lake City is hosting their 2nd Annual Beer Festival this summer, it's actually in August. So, I would highly recommend searching for something like that in your area. It would be a great way to get exposed to some new, delicious beers. You may even learn a thing or two and possibly get interested in home brewing, which I have never done but I've heard some great things and have tasted some wonderful home brewed beer.

    I drank a whole bunch of Newcastles the other night. Stuff goes down like water.

    The wife just picked up a Summer variety pack of Sam Adams. Only Sam Adams I didn't like was the Chocolate Bach and Cherry Wheat.

    Some others I dig

    Killian's
    Blue Moon
    Goose Island 312
    Trout Slayer
    Spotted Cow
    Amber Bock
    Shlafly

    I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Budweiser but it's like water compared to better beer.

    Killian's is my preferred choice when I'm buying cheap. That or Shiner Bock. Amber Bock isn't bad either.

    God, beer in general is just too damn delicious.

    Happy Birthday!

    I do like Killian's and Labbat's for 'cheap stuff'-can't stand Bud/Miller

    I really like the flavor of Pyramid Apricot Ale-esp during the summer...

    dc is right, go to a Beerfest-we went to one and $20 got us 5 tastings of beer, the one we went to gave generous samples (6oz)

    whatever you do, don't get hooked on Old E or Mickey's :sick:-high alcohol content, really cheap, and tastes like...well...just don't drink it.

    Party hard, be safe!
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    there's a brewery on Long Island called Blue Point. pretty much everything they make is delicious.
    toasted lager and hoptical illusion are 2 of my favorites.

    enjoy and as others have said, don't drink and drive. it's not worth it.

    happy birthday dude!

    best feeling was buying a case of beer, walking it into my house, right past my parents and i kinda looked at them with a .... "yeah say something now" look.

    some good, main stream beers you should get into: magic hat, sierra nevada, dogfish head, guinness.
