    I went in the specialty beer place near us the other day just to browse and I was very confused by all the odd names. If they put a word like "Ignorant", "bastard", "wicked" in the name, does it make it better?

    What happened to good old Blatz. We would get that for $5 a case back in college.


    arrogant bastard.....that's my beer. :lol:

    Always keep some at your desk.

  • Well today is a good day in Mizzip...I just discovered a wonderful beer store that has lots of beers you can't find anywhere else around here...really wide selection on the website from some of the breweries you guys have talked about and made me jealous and some others i've never heard of or read about. can't wait to go, but it's about 45 minutes away....it won't be long though
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    No shit. I stopped by the Foodery this week and they still haven't gotten Faithfull and don't have any info on Bitches. The restaurant will have it if its up here already though. Just going to head down there tomorrow for dinner and way too much beer.

    how do you know samual smith oatmeal stout is good?

    gf was making a stew last night and needed beer for it. only beer i had was octoberfest and told her that would not do.

    told her to go to the store and get a porter or stout that wasn't guiness

    so she goes....and with the help of the beer guy workin gets the oatmeal stout.

    pours most into the stew and then (shocking when i heard) decides to drink a little of the beer (she only has one or two drinks a year on avearge and generally hates beer)

    i get home and she tells me this, and says she liked it. :shock:

    so that's how you tell a beer is good.

    and the stew was good as well. :shock: yeah, i know. :shock: :lol:

    lamb beer stew. leftovers in the fridge. mmmm

    funny thing, she isn't a great cook although i will give her credit for trying and improving. normally the first time she tries a reciepe it comes out bad...stew came out excellent. this one time she made dumplings and used a shit ton of baking soda instead of baking powder...yikes.
