It was always at ZJ Brown's grave. One day it was so damned cold that the second we twisted the top from our Miller High-Life's the beer turned into that kind of slushie thing and expanding out of the bottle. We drank / ate it anyway.

I am sure ZJ has made sure we get a one-way ticket to hell BTW.
I am going to be cremated with some of my ashes sprinkled at Busch Stadium, but if I were to be buried into the ground I would love to know that some teenagers picked my grave to do that. If ZJ Brown was a decent man with a sense of fun and adventure, I'm sure he would have approved. If not, [expletive] him.

I freeze beer from time to time because I like it cold and am impatient and also absent minded.

I remember a New Year's Eve in HS we'd gotten a ton of beer and malt beverages, we hid them all in a snow bank thinking we'd come back the next night and finish them. I think everything but the Mickeys had froze and busted. It was a huge disappointment and waste if alky.
I love Mickeys
iirc I hate Mickey's. Sure, the bottle is cool but the malt liquor is terrible. Again, iirc.
Oh it's bad, but it's my goto cheap beer...and after a few of the green grenades, you alright.
One of the things we loved about mickeys was that we could fill them about 2/3 full of water, put the kid back on, and throw them in the bonfire. Couple minutes later they would build up enough pressure to make a fairly good size explosion.

Also: expletive you, people who freeze mugs in cheap bars then pour beer into it, making the beer too carby/filling, and getting little bits of ice into the beer, watering it all down. It's probably crappy beer to start, no need to make it more crappy or crappier or whatever. The frozen mug is not charming, it's kinda ruinous.
