Beer

[Threepoint]

I try not to drink anything other than craft (small) brewery's. My favorite is Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy style of beer, followed by Porters, Stouts and the lightest I drink are Nutbrown ales. I've paid $10.50 for a 12oz and $24 for 24oz bottle, I had been drinking when I purchased them :duh:

Ever tried Kilt Flasher (a wee heavy Scotch Ale)? One of my nephews gave me a six-pack awhile back. I'd never heard of it. Boy, was that good. :thumbsup:

Then why did you click on a link titled beer?

Sorry, but I had to ask.

I love a good beer, and hate any kind of coffee, so clicking on thr link was natural for me, but for that reason, under no circumstances would I ever click on a link titled "Coffee".

Aww, PhysAssist, bet you'd at least hover that cursor over the original post! I'd be curious to see if it was reporting that coffee was found to be a natural carcinogen. :laughing: Or if a new study, say from Harvard, found that it decreased the likelihood of dying from heart disease, diabetes or suicide!

It does taste like beer, very good beer.

"it has the perfect amount of strawberry taste" Or maybe not. :laughing:

LOVE that beer and brewery, Devils Backbone. To bad Anheuser Busch just bought them out... I don't like buying anything from ABI’s The High End (out to destroy, oops, buy up craft breweries).

I know the sunlight is supposed to be bad for the beer, but I'll chance it. Natural Light was a favorite of mine for some years, but no matter what beer, or what soda pop, or even V-8 or other juice, I don't like drinking it from a can anymore when I can either pour it into a glass, or preferably buy it in a bottle to start with. So anytime I buy any drink in a can, it's only because I couldn't find it in a bottle.

2X on that, the metal usually makes the beer taste bad except for the few that put ceramic coatings on the inner can walls.

The local craft beer brewer/brewpub Rohrbachs' retail beer is sold in ceracoat cans, and it tastes almost as good as it does on draft in their pub- and I love their high proof wee heavy ale named: Scotch Ale- it's really malty and smooth.

Strawberry? What's with all this orange, lemon and fruit business anyway? Beer is supposed to taste like beer, not kool aid or fruit punch. Verboten in the fatherland for sure.

Yah, what's the name of the Austrian (or whichever) purity laws that only allow Water, Barley, and Hops,....

Those were the days, no?

Thanks Google: they're the Reinheitsgebot (Purity Orders), which originated before the Austria and Germany we know, in the duchy of Munich.

Naw, not at all, because I see the original studies in the medical reviews on the professional web sites I belong to, and read them to pass them on to my cafe drinking friends and family.

Coffee is actually awesome for all kinds of health reasons, so I wish I could learn to like it, but since I literally gag and vomit whenever I even try to drink it, I seriously doubt that will ever happen.
