Battle of the Beer
Thursday, July 27, 2006 5:08 PM on j-body.org
That's right, Ladies and Gentlemen. For tonight's main event, I have in the red corn-NAAAAR - Hailing from where ever the heck you are from, Representing You --- Your Beer of Choice!

And, in the blue corn-NAAAAR - From the frozen land of Milwaukee, WI, comming in a tall frosty mug. 2 time "Lite" Weight Champion of Dan's fridge. The one, the only. Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilla' Liiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

I also enjoy Guinness draft and Bass. Combined, they are also a force to be reckond with. Nothing like a Chicago deep dish and a pint of Black and Tan!

There are a plethera of other beers I also davel in, but I wouldn't send them into a prize fight of this caliber. ML is my champ.

Budweiser = The NASCAR of beers. The most exciting thing about it is when some redneck hits another redneck with one.

I figured we needed a little something to war about that wasn't so fricking serious.

Guinness is good, if it's cold enough. And I love the little rocket gizmo inside the bottle!

oduls, the non alcoholic beer, owns all!!!!!!

never had it nor tasted alcohol, but for anything thats an oxymoron thats still on the market this long, it has to be something good with it.


its like being in the frozen food section and seeing Morning star "meatless ribs"......MEAT-LESS ribs.... since when do plants have ribs?

Do you mix Guinness and Bass in the same glass? Never had that.... I won't even have a Corona, because everyone says you have to put a lime wedge in it or it tastes horrible. If you have to doctor it up, it's not worth the time.

Newcastle
Bass
Harp
Fischer Tradition - I'd buy this just for the bottle, even if it didn't taste good
McEwan's
Quidi Vidi Honey Brown - Local/microbrew
Black Horse - Local
Alexander Keith's
MGD
Molson Canadian
Heineken
Dominion - Local

Those are probably my favorites, in that exact order.

Mix? Nonononono.

You pour in the Bass/Harp, then you pour the Guinness over top of a spoon (or other obstruction) so that it gently falls onto the underlying beer instead of plummeting down into it. If done correctly, you will see a clear division between the Guinness layer and the Bass/Harp layer.

So it's like a Tequilla Sunrise, but for straight guys.

You're crazy Borsty.

Black & Tan, Crown Float (Guinness and Strongbow same idea).

I prefer a Guinness, at 13.5 Degrees Celsius (the .5 is important), and the pint has to be built right.

Budweiser will only cross my lips if:
A: it's free, or I'm getting paid to ingest it
B: if I'm in Czech Republic, and it's brewed the proper way.

John: Yep. You need either a tankard or a Guinness sleeve because it won't work anyother way... Also, for all the slag Guinness gets for being a heavy stout, it's lighter than the ale, and has about the same alcohol content & Calories as a light beer.

I also have to qualify what constitutes light beer:

A typical Canadian light beer:

A typical American lite beer as seen by a Canadian:

RaiLS:
It'd be a toss up between:
- Moosehead,
- Alexander Keiths IPA
- Sleeman Honey Brown
- Guinness
- Molson Canadian (If I feel like slumming it)
- Mickey's (If I REALLY feel like slumming it)

I've usually got Sleeman Clear (GF's drink of choice) and Guinness in the fridge, but I've started to drink Mead now... it's good stuff

^^Sleeman's is good stuff too... The Quidi Vidi Honey Brown I listed is very similar to Sleeman's, just with subtle differences.

If i have no money: lakeport honey, the taste of stoney creek!

Steamwhistle- (local toronto beer) if it's cold enough and if i have enough money.

But my favourite beer right now is Mill st. organic (if you can get it, you need to try it!) also brewed in Toronto .

Micky's Malt Liquor??? Talk about slummin it! Whew!

I see there is not a lot of Miller fans (I know Miller makes Micky's!). It's like da champiegn of beer, eh?

Yeah, I will hit up the High Life (only in bottles and ice cold). I can't get myself to drink the MGD though. Not my style.

Bud Select isn't bad. It's a departure from the normal crap they brew.

Ohh, Bortsy, don't feel bad about the Coors. I am stationed in CO and it's dirt cheap, so I get it on occasion. Their NA beer is pretty good when I am in a pinch out here.

I had some Canuk beer once. I was at a wedding in TN of all places (The bride's parents were Canadianese). I don't remember what it was called, but it had X's on the label. It was aweful. Tasted like swill.

Nothing beats an ice cold Miller Lite from the tap at BW3's and a giant mount of BBQ wings w/free PPV boxing or Futbol Americano on the big screen.

When I finally return home to my native WI, I will have to "cross the boarder" and try some of this exotic beer from "Da' Great White Nort", eh? Just don't be a hoser and drink my last beer.

They had some good old 6.0% in Teh has. Damn good too. Miller Lite in fact.

Everything's bigger in TX, I guess. Dallas, SAT and Houston are in the top 10 fattest cities in the US.

My sister and I drink Bud Light, thats our beer of choice.

But my favorite is Pyramid Apricot Ale...

I was pretty much exclusive Keith's IPA, but recently I came across a beer called MaClays TPA.

It is almost as good as Keith's, but the seller is that is is only $26 for 24, where Keith's is $38 for 24.

Not that I cannot afford it, I always have, but it is nice to save a few bucks here and there for other things.
