I like most styles of beer. The only ones I don't generally care for are sours.
Lager means mediocre at best.

Did you get a chance to finally try a Yuengling lager when you were on the East Coast?
No! They didn't have them at any of the places we went to. To be fair, a couple of our stops had really terrible beer selections. Another was Belgian beers only (which I love!). The one bar that I thought would have had it...didn't. :/
Lager means mediocre at best.
I've had some good lagers. Not many, but it's possible. Just because Budweiser, Coors, Miller, etc. can't make one doesn't mean it isn't possible. Lagers aren't my favorite style, not even close, but unlike sours I have had good lagers.

The problem is I appreciate beer TOO much. Why drink lager when there's so many good beers out there that actually have flavor profiles and character.

Easy spelling mistake, I know.
EDIT:
I will say I have had some good lager in central Europe. But here in the States? Not a once that I can recall. I mean sure, I'll drink it. But lager here is the lowest common denominator of beers: bland and cheap (and I use the word cheap in a sense that goes beyond merely pricing).

Since when can we only drink beer from the country we reside in?
That would be like saying, "I hate tacos because most American tacos suck."
No shit! That's why I go to Tacos El Rancho instead of Taco Bell!
I would never say an entire style of beer is "piss". There are way too many good lagers out there. It's a big, big world....................of beer. :D

Since really getting into good beer, lagers all taste the same to me. I used to be quite picky about the stuff, but I only ever drink it when I'm at some kind of social gathering and all the other beer and spirits have been consumed.

04-29-2012, 09:31 AM

Trust me, even the "imported" shit we get here doesn't compare. It just doesn't. Even try a Boddington's here and in England (I use that because it's a commonly found beer). World's apart, even though the stuff here is "imported". Just not the same.
That would be like saying, "I hate tacos because most American tacos suck."
I see what you're trying to say, but it's not the same. Tacos in Mexico are very, very different than what you get here in the States. The meat, quality of tortillas, even the ingredients used...very different.
No shit! That's why I go to Tacos El Rancho instead of Taco Bell!
And you're still not getting a true Mexican taco. You're getting the closest you can get but still not the same. Trust me on this one, Gringo. ;)
I would never say an entire style of beer is "piss". There are way too many good lagers out there. It's a big, big world....................of beer. :D
Essentially, it boils down to ingredients. Here in the States cost trumps taste, and our palette has grown accustomed to that. As I said, even just the tortillas (which are the foundation of a taco) are vastly different. In Mexico, most Mexicans buy their tortillas every day. Why? No preservatives other than natural ones. Meaning that after a day, they are stale. Here? Shit, you can have tortillas last you weeks. Why? Ingredients. Same thing with bread in many countries other than the US.
Fucking hell, have you ever had Mexican Coke? You wouldn't recognize it. Here in the US corn syrup is our sweetener of choice for nearly everything. In Mexico? Motherfucking sugar. Real sugar.

04-29-2012, 09:47 AM
Yeah, well until I move out of the country, I'm gonna enjoy what I got right here at home. Sure, there are better things in better places, but I'm not trying to go to Italy for some Pasta Fagioli. I like American Coca Cola, and if I tried it, I'd probably enjoy Mexican Coca Cola. I just can't put off an entire style of beer because most of them suck. I just won't do it. Shit, some of my favorite beers are Chocolate Bocks....and technically a bock is a lager. *shrug* And if you toss me a Budweiser....I'm gonna drink it. Shit, if you toss me a Natty Ice, I'ma drink it (to be polite of course) ;)
edit: oh and I also wanted to note, civil, you say
Here in the States cost trumps taste
but there are plenty of local breweries here in the states that try their damnedest to make the finest, best tasting, best ingredients, best brewed beer they can. Orlando Brewing uses all organic ingredients. You might pay more, but it'll be some of the best beer you've tasted.

Went to the Manayunk Brewfest yesterday afternoon. Though I had 4 friends drop out at the last moment, there were still around 10 of us that made it. It was a fun time as always. You get a 6oz. tasting glass at the door and are unleashed onto 20+ vendors, each with 2-4 beer types to drink as much as you want. I didn't get drunk (no one in our group did), but we all had a fun time. Then, I got some awesome $22 paella at a restaurant down the street. So good and sooooo worth it.

Not drunk now, but I packed a few in last night. There's this scotch called Amrut Fuzion from India, and it's a quality drink. And I'm a scotch guy - I started the night with a double Cragganmore.

Weed you can do every day. Mushrooms are more of an event that you only do every so often. It's so fun, and makes me so happy. My friend and I sat up all night watching comedy stand ups on Netflix and talking.

On Friday, I started drinking at 8 PM until 2 AM. Not that shocking, I know. But my usual drinking hours are 11-2. Not much time, but I hit it hard, 7-10 beers in that quick span. So when I hit Friday with the same rate...
I lost count. The last time I lost count of drinking was a wedding, right around the 14th beer. I paid cash, so only a vague memory of how much I had against how much I have now is my only tell. Not much is remembered, but I apparently lost my shirt for a bit until someone I knew found it draped on a chair.
This all happened in a public bar.
So, waking up on Saturday, I feel like death warmed over. Head, splits. Stomach, burning with poison still. Can barely function. Reaching for things later in the evening still resulted in misjudgments that sent those same things skittering away due to clumsy fingers or just delirium.
And I still went out tonight and drank away my hangover. Had a good time. Discussed warplanes and heavy weapons while telling bad jokes and bitching about a Ray Liotta movie I watched 5 years ago.
Good times.

I think I drank myself sober yesterday.
Started off rather tame, thought I'd go hang out with a few people I haven't seen in a while. Great fun seeing them again.
That was around 4 PM.
At 7, they've left and I decided to hit up another place, because they had free food on sundays. Every other sunday. So I grabbed a beer or two, hung out with the bartender (another guy I know) and decided to head next door, because that bar has a taco cart. Got a nice and spicy pulled pork. Belly full, I head to my usual hangout. I pace myself there. I've been drinking all day, but it's not my first rodeo. I take a friend to his place to hang out and eat a pizza, and he proceeds to serve me this rather tasty concoction made of what I can only assume is red wine, ice, and Squirt (the soft drink).

Moving my head sucks, as there's apparently a gopher in my brain who doesn't want me to move, so when I do, he stabs me. Nothing helps. It also doesn't help that the weather moved into the 100s today as well, so I'm just hot and sweaty and fighting hangover dehydration with heat dehydration. Worst part: I have no groceries, so I HAVE to go out to get food. Misery. Hot car, hot pavement, everything is baking. Worst drunk I've been in a while, worst hangover I've been in a while, and all because of a little tasty red drink.

Saturday night my wife and I went to this new tap room. They had a nice sized list of micro brews. The first one I chose was a 7.5 abv Jamaican Stout called Dragon Stout. It was excellent! Great taste by the same folks that make Red Stripe. The second was a Brown Ale called with 5.6 abv called Turbodog by Abita Brewing Co. It was also excellent. Though my favorite between the two was definitely the Dragon Stout.

I was a groomsman in a wedding this past Friday. I had about 4 drinks before the 3:30 wedding and after the 7 minute long ceremony (no joke) we all start drinking in the executive suite and while taking pictures. Then the reception goes from 5pm-10pm. I had at least 20 drinks in that 5 hour span, though I felt completely fine. I think the liquor might have been watered down.
From 10:15 to about 11:30, I had a few more drinks in the groom's parent's suite (until all 20+ of us got too rowdy for the neighbors and the hotel threatened to kick out the groom's parents) and then down at the hotel's lobby bar. Apparently these were drinks with full kick because I completely blacked out from 11:30 to 2:30am. For the record, I have blacked out exactly once before in my life from drinking.
I remember that between 11-11:30 I had been hitting on the maid-of-honor hardcore, despite the fact that she is only a "7" on a generous day. Apparently, I was still actively engaged in conversation with everyone else, despite having no memory of the last 3 hours of hanging out.
The next day, several people confirmed that at 2:30am, while we were all in the hotel lobby after the bar closed at 2, that I was ready for bed and left in a "classic" fashion that will be retold for the rest of my life. I supposedly (in front of the entire bridal/groom party and both sets of parents) proceeded to put my arm out (shaped like a C along my side) and tried to escort the maid-of-honor back to my room. She shot me down over a minute long time period in front of everyone. I then supposedly made my rounds around the lobby saying good night to everyone, then proceeded to Michael Jackson moonwalk back across the lobby to the maid-of-honor where I put out my arm and once again tried to get her to go back with me. Repeat getting shot down in front of everyone.
Then, she went back to the Best Man's room (who happens to be my best friend as well).

I think I drank myself sober yesterday.
Started off rather tame, thought I'd go hang out with a few people I haven't seen in a while. Great fun seeing them again.
That was around 4 PM.
At 7, they've left and I decided to hit up another place, because they had free food on sundays. Every other sunday. So I grabbed a beer or two, hung out with the bartender (another guy I know) and decided to head next door, because that bar has a taco cart. Got a nice and spicy pulled pork. Belly full, I head to my usual hangout. I pace myself there. I've been drinking all day, but it's not my first rodeo. I take a friend to his place to hang out and eat a pizza, and he proceeds to serve me this rather tasty concoction made of what I can only assume is red wine, ice, and Squirt (the soft drink). It is delicious. So much so that when I leave, he gives me a mason jar full of it. I get home around 4, put on some TV, and enjoy my jar full of delight.

Put back like 3 pint glass G&Ts, something called a "citrus slide," and a couple bourbon on the rocks, before taking off with my buddy and getting toked up at some friend of his' trailer park while surrounded by tiny kittens.
It was pretty nuts. Fun as hell though.

My coworkers and I last Saturday went out and bought some 25 year old scotch. Last night we enjoyed "Scotch older than us and 3:10 to Yuma" night with said whisky. I believe it was labeled Knockando. It was pretty good.
I had too much and woke up on my coworker's floor at 5:00am, all nice and hungover and at least still tipsy -- then I stumbled home. Today's going to be great.

I couple of nights ago the family and I went to Tony Roma's. The food was sub-par and over priced. But while I was there I decided to finally try the Lindemans Framboise. I always see this stuff in the local liquor store, but have never brought myself to try it. I'm not usually into fruity beers.
http://www.belgianbeermagazine.com/img/2011/07/lindemans-framboise4.jpg
I can barely call this a beer. More like raspberry juice! It was quite delicious, but not at all what I expected. It looks like red wine, but is far sweeter. At roughly 2.5% abv and $10 a bottle, you're better of just drinking some raspberry juice.

I had a really great night on Friday. It started out as a fairly normal post-work drink with a buddy, but there was a pretty decent band on at our usual pub and we ended up doing a little drunken dancing and having a laugh with a few of the other patrons. Then we headed to my local which had an exceptionally good covers band on and happily rocked the rest of the night away.

I'm a little tipsy. Tonight was nowhere near as entertaining as last Friday. The band was shit and the pub was even lighter on the under 40s than usual. It doesn't help that I'm on a real downer at the moment and I can't figure out why. I thought I was pretty much done with the depression, but I've been fucking miserable most of the time for the past couple of weeks and I can't figure out why. I'm just glad that my worst drunken state is quiet and thoughtful.

Stopped by BevMo on Friday to get a few new kegs for the 'rator. Since I got a fancy new job, I decided I'd splurge on a slightly more expensive bottle of Scotch to go with it. After much staring, I settled on something called Laphroaig. It sounded sufficiently Scottish and had cheap labels on the bottle.
So...this stuff tastes like someone put a cigar out in it. You can smell it from a few feet away, nice and smokey, but that taste? Overwhelming. I really had to struggle through the first glass. The scary part is that I think I like it now. It tastes like I'm drinking out of the cup with the cigarettes in it and I'm enjoying myself. I think I have a problem.

It was basically a weekend of drinking and good music.

The only time I really took it easy (compared to the rest of the weekend) was when I was nearing the end of my beers on Sunday.
