The Beer Thread

It tasted like they mixed Zima with beer. It had like a fizz like Zima or a Wine Cooler that beer doesn't have.

Ugh..........

King gave a pretty good description of the Chill, but let me add another taste image: it tastes like a margarita mixed with a flat beer. Not good at all. I also share the sentiments of the Shandy - my wife loves it, but she also loves Leinie's Berry Weiss so you get the idea of her beer drinking depth.

I know I've mentioned this on here before, but New Glarus Brewery makes some pretty good beers too - they sound funny but taste excellent. The "Fat Squirrel" and "Spotted Cow" are my year round favs, but they also brew this seasonal beer called "Dancing Man Wheat" that'll make your toes curl in goodness. Pure Excellence.

I guess not, but you can get it in Alaska. They got some crazy distribution, just sort of scattered.

Either way, what is up with not being able to say a****er? Who the **** is running mother****ing place? I can say dick, but not a****er? Why because **** is in a****er. Rick is a ****.
