The commercials are funny, but not funny enough to make me like Bud Light.

Bud light is awful. Keystone light is awful. Natty light is akin to urine. As far as light beers go, some carona light with lime. |

As far as I'm concerned, the alcohol content of beers is as follows: Pabst Miller light Bud Light Water Coors Light That being said, coors is a damn "drinkable" beer. Always in the fridge at my place. It's just a solid beer. Of course, I'd choose Becks/Fat Tire/Sam Adams any day over aforementioned crap. ------------- "According to Sue Johanson, theres nothing that can increase your manhood, trust me I've already looked into it for myself." -Zata <keep the sigs friendly, please> |

I don't mind light beer. Corona's fine, but you can't keep it for more than a week or it'll taste like skunk piss. Sometimes it makes me feel like there's a lump in the back of my throat. Sam Adams is pretty good. Especially Boston Lager. Still want to try Octoberfest. Oh, and nobody can complain about crappy beer until they've drank warm Old Milwaukee. One was all it took to make me hurl. |

I don't have a really sophisticated palette. I don't really care about what
company owns it or extreme tastes. I just want good. Hell, my favorite beer is an AB beer. Here is my top five: 1) Shock Top 2) Guinness 3) Lowenbrau 4) Tsingtao 5) Shipyard's Bluefin Stout |

I tried Shock Top a few day ago. They had it on tap. Pretty damn delicious. -------------

I used to love Rolling Rock before it got bought by Anheiser-Busch. After the purchase, they closed the Latrobe Brewing Plant, and where ever it's made now, it's not the same.
I have tried some imported beers and some microbrews. I like Spaten Lager, Corona, Abita Turbodog (my brother-in-law is from Louisiana), Guinness, and some others. But most often, I drink Miller Lite. My band plays a lot of corner bars, and a few dives, and most of them don't offer a wide selection of beers, but they all sell Miller Lite. They sell enough that they're always fresh, and it's not bad. |

If your gonna drink **edited**ty beer might as well make it natty and save the money. Natty, It'll get you drunk. -------------

I'd rather hard alcohol, kill shots to get a nice buzz and mix drinks to keep it going. If I do drink beer, I would rather coors over bud light...natty is a last resort if I don't have money.

Power hours are so stupid. Instead of getting drunk, you just get really full. I don't really play any drinking games anymore. Just hang out and drink at your own pace. I'd rather relax and take my time than rush around trying to get wasted as fast as possible. It's weird though. Drinking has lost it's appeal to me or something. I still go to the bar on weekends from time to time, but I don't overdo it. ------------- irc.esper.net #paintball |

Totally BRO, but to really get hammered you have to take warm natty, shake it and stick it with a pin. That way the booze molecules are focused into a fine stream that gets you instantly drunk. Getting drunk has noting to do with blood alcohol level. It's all about delivery  ------------- My shoes of peace have steel toes. |

Actually, on manswers. They said the fastest way to get drunk would be to, ahem, take the alcohol through your um, anus. Something about mucus membranes and faster absorption rates. |

I was listening to the radio on the way to school one morning, and a guy called in talking about medical school. He said they weren't supposed to drink, so their breath could never have alcohol on it, etc. Well, being the genius doctors that they were, they started doing enemas with beer, and said one or a couple would get people hammered. Until the faithful day when a med student tried to do it with a bottle of sherry. He died.  ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |

Centry Club (1 shot of beer/minute for an hour) has been done a few times with a few good friends. One guy weighed over 300lbs and he was even drunk by the end of it. This guy is a daily drinker too, so a high tollerance was in stock for him. You don't know good beer on tap until you have a Mac N' Jacks. DELICIOUS and brewed here in the NW. ------------- http://imageshack.us - [IMG - http://img456.imageshack.us/img456/857/sig9ac6cs1mj.jpg - |
