Rheingold & Meisterbrau

The only thing either of them is good for is shaking up to play Bob & Doug's Beerhunter, both are better worn than consumed.

Heh. I like to mix my bourbon with a little ice on occasion, but that's about as far as I regularly go with mixed drinks.

Man, I've got to say, there is very little as tasty as a good casked cider pulled witha beer engine. 15-20 of those, and you're good to go.


To the hospital, but still, it's tasty.

For "sipping" its Johnny Black (Gold, or Blue when I can indulge myself). For "swilling" it is beer. Anything but "Light" or "Lite" will do.

Otter Creek stovepipe porter. Cant wait to move to vt so I don't have to go hunting for it

After a hard day of moving last weekend, I grabbed a sixer of Otter Creek Copper Ale. I really enjoyed it. I was going to try the the porter but it was to darn hot that day. The good thing is that the place that I found it is 5 minutes from my place and always has Otter Creek in stock.

I've always like Long Trail. I need to try that IPA. IPA has been my beer this summer. Can't wait start sipping some porters as fall/winter approaches.

I picked me up some of the Wachusett IPA someone discussed either in this thread or the random beers thread. Good stuff. Can't go wrong with the Otter Creek Copper or Long Trail, either. Good call, guys. It's nice to see more and more Octoberfest beers hitting the shelves, too. Those go down really easy at the Pats games, especially in the cool, crisp fall air. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.................. :)

Ooof. Too much gin changes your chromosomes. I do love Tangueray and Tonics though. Got a few bottles sitting in the cabinet. Maybe I'll pick up some tonic and limes tomorrow! :idea:
