The Beer Thread

I prefer a black and Fat to a black and tan.

I tried mixing a schlafly coffe stout with their Maplewood (a lighter beer with some maple notes) at the bottleworks, but since neither was on nitro, they just mixed together. Meh.

Side note-don't order the large beer at Bennigan's unless you actually want a 46oz beer.

That seems plenty big enough for a large. Just what are you expecting, an entire keg?

I was expecting something more like 32oz max, not that I'm complaining about getting 46oz for $8, mind, I was just surprised.

i left work an hour early and picked up a 4 pack of guinness...oh, so good...

But then, I don't like Japanese beer so the sake actually makes it better to me.

Hitachino makes good stuff. I'm sure there are others but they're the first Japanese brewery I've seen making stouts and ales instead of just lagers.

I've done the Sake Bomb thing, with sake and Japanese beer. But then, I don't like Japanese beer so the sake actually makes it better to me.

hopefully you rested the sake on a pair of chopsticks and hit the table with your fist to depth charge the shot. Otherwise it doesn't count.

I was at mcgurks the other day when it was dead and tried a pumpkin pie shot dropped into a bass (maybe?). It was gross.

Nothing beats an irish car bomb, but the flaming dr pepper is a close second.

I was visiting my folks this week and went into Schnucks and found Schafly. I had that one time in my life, at Hrabosky's place I think, before a game this summer. Thought it was pretty good then, so I picked up a six of the Pale Ale and the Oktoberfest. I drank all of the Pale Ale's Saturday night, they were pretty good. I had an Oktoberfest last night, that was pretty good too. I think I'll add this brewer to my "Safe" list.

How do you pronounce it?

My buddy now has Guiness on tap at his house along with PBR. Good times.

Also stocked with Jameson and Bailey's. Irish car bombs!!!!

I forgot how much I like this type of beer. Mmmmmm.

I picked up a 4-pack of these last night. Awesome!
Also tried this:
Michigan sure has some great microbreweries.
