Alcohol... the cause and solution to all our problems.

Damn, I'm thirsty!

I'm drinking Corona's that I found in a car at work yesterday. I work at Avis Car Rental. This thread makes me want to head out to a bar though.

 

[Manic]

I had Corona once. I thought it was terrible. Someone told me that's only because I hadn't squeezed any lime in it, but I say you're doing something wrong if your beer needs to have fruit shoved down the bottle to make it palatable.

My friend used to joke that it tastes like piss. It's not any better with lime either. It was free though so I figured the hell with it

 

[Anubis]

I love Corona

right now, I'm rocking a glass of Captain Morgan and ice. They sweeten this up so much, I can drink it straight up.

I still have Summer Ale to finish. I've never had Octoberfest so I'm definitely going to try that. This summer I got really into Sam Adams (maybe because of my trip to Boston for vacation)

Octoberfest is my favorite of the seasonals. When winter rolls around, I strongly recommend you pick up the holiday 12-pack. There are 2 beers in there that will melt your face off: Old Fezziwig and Holiday Porter

 

[Aesop Rocks]

And you can buy these at your local grocery store, si?

 

[Prison Mike]

Is the Holiday 12 pack assorted? I usually buy beer at my local Wegmans.

True story: Me and a few friends were down in Cancun at the local Carlos and Charlies where they decided to have a drinking contest. Instantly my friends and I were pumped, until we read the last line of the rules: No one from Wisconsin was allowed in their drinking games. So we stood behind the contestants and made fools out of every last one.
Any home brewers here? I'm an amateur, working on an Irish Stout right now.

Yeah, you get 6 beers, 2 of each.

Didn't know Wegmans sold beer. Mine opens in Sept, so excited lol

The only probem is that they limit you to buying 2 six packs or one 12 pack at a time. But all that essentially means is that you could buy the beer, drop it off in your car, and come back to buy some more a few minutes later.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Weird

 

[Prison Mike]

Yeah and they I.D. everyone. Doesn't matter if you look old enough, you have to show your I.D.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Spoons, take me to an Octoberfest and buy me all the beer you want me to try. I mean, how else can you prove you're not a liar?

Eh, my friends and I chipped in for a few home brew kits back in the day, we got one of those huge buckets and a couple of kits of diff types of beer.
But, y'know, we were only teenagers at the time, just about to leave school, so we just put as much sugar as you possibly could in, so's it would turn into the strongest booze possible.

It still actually tasted alright, I guess some of the sugar did not turn into alcohol, as there is a limit that will ferment, and aye, it pretty much blew our socks off, lol, not a bad way to get drunk when you were that age and had not much income at all.

If memory serves...the first time i got drunk on our home brew was on the day Batman Returns came out in the cinema, my friend's house where the kit was fermenting was just down the road from the cinema, so afte the morning showing I went round there, and my two best friends were sitting there in their suits, just back from court for stealing records from Tower, tanking into the home brew, lol, it was a couple of days before we were supposed to start drinking it, but the school valedictory(our equivalent of the 'prom' i guess) was that night iirc. the good old days haha.

My local Octoberfest has only two beers. Paulaner Oktoberfest and Hacker-Pschorr Ocktoberfest lol

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Well then, looks like it won't be that hard to prove you're not lying, now will it?

Haha, the Octoberfest I was talking about it by Sam Adams. You can get it at any liquor store fool.

 

[Prison Mike]

All this Octoberfest talk is making me thirsty!

 

[Colossal Spoons]

45 mins till noon and we'll be socially allowed to drink!

 

[Prison Mike]
