Hey, have I mentioned Untappd before?
It's an app for checking in with whatever you're drinking (and wherever you're drinking it).

Just figured I'd mention it since I'm on there

 

hmm, i dont think you have. i'd downlaod but i have no space left on my phone. getting a new one soon though

 

Hell, I don't even have internet, touchscreen or apps on my phone.
I just use it on my desktop computer.

Of course, that means my location is never out at a bar or something... I'm always just sitting at home, lol

 

hey, thats where i do most of my drinking as well. I do enjoy going out sometimes tohugh, but i also really enjoy quietness

 

For me it's a matter of course.
Not only am I married with a kid (4 years old in July), but it just gets to a point where it's like "$3 for a beer? Fuck that, I can get a sixer of better and stronger shit for $10!"
Plus, I don't have a huge circle of friends to go out drinking with or anything.
Out of the friends I do have, my best bet for a drinking buddy moved to Colorado a little while back and was a couple hours away for years before that.

And I can sit around in my pajamas, choose the music I listen to and not have to worry about driving home drunk!

 

3 dollars????? where do you find beer that cheap?

if i go out its like 5 bucks minimum for a bud light lol

 

Around here the cheaper beers are in the $3 range at bars. Craft beers are in the $5-7 range, but can be as much as $10 depending on the beer and where it's from.

I went bowling with my gf a few weeks ago and Stella Artois was the best thing they had at the alley. That was $6 fucking bucks a bottle... talk about a rip off.

 

Local bar has pbr for about 2.50 and they will have a local micro for 3.50 no selection though. The local Irish bar has a nice choice on tap and are 4-5 bucks a drink. That place is 15 minutes away.

Just had Boulevards smokehouse chocolate ale. It had almost no chocolate taste. It was like a champagne with chocolate malt taste. Very slight chocolate taste. So anyway yeah it was a huuuuge disappointment.

 

$6 for a Stella? Yuck

My local Thai restaurant down the street does happy hour drafts for $4. But I know of a bar in town that does happy hour specials at $2 for a pint! I'm not talking about shitty domestics either. I haven't been there in a while, so I'm not sure if they still do it.

 

I once paid 12 dollars for a 6 ounce bud light in Vegas

 

2XPressso ...Southern Tier, its not as bad as I remember it..

 

I have some ice cold water.

 

Tonight I am drinking a beer I had on tap a few months ago, which I really enjoyed. I happened to run across a 4-pack of 20 oz bottles at Hart's in downtown Rochester last week. It's called Beau's All Natural Lug Tread Lagered Ale and is a Kolsch style beer Beau's is an Ontario-based brewery. This particular beer is organic. It's made with top fermenting yeast like an ale, but is cold-aged like a lager, so what you get is kind of like a ale-lager hybrid. You get the full-bodied, full-flavored character you would find in an ale, but with the crispness of a lager. This is really a refreshing, easy to drink beer that is flavorful and would be well-suited for warmer weather. I highly recommend this. Its relatively low ABV (5.2%) makes it a good session beer that you can consume more than a few of without getting too wasted, too quickly.

 

Gonna start drinking all the ones I have saved or aged.
Drinking DFHs higher math now. It is better than I remember. Strong alcohol burn on the back end. Light in taste. Syrupy cherry notes. No other traditional beer tastes that I can place.

 

Drinking "scary jesus rockstar."
A good malty fruity mix. Interesting and different but still a typical ale...as typical as you can get from an apricot chamomile ale at least.

 

Stone ipa. i just stae taco bell. end well this will not

 

Drinking a style of beer that is just now slowly beginning to gain popularity, which is a gose. This is from Lost Nation Brewing out of Vermont. If you have never had a gose before, it's like a cross between a wheat beer and a sour ale. It's a German style of beer consisting largely of malted wheat, coriander and sea salt, giving the beer a simultaneously tart and slightly salty flavor with some herbal notes as well. These beers are almost always a pale, cloudy yellow color such as is seen below. They also have a relatively low alcohol content that is in the low to high 4% range. It's a rather easy drinking style of beer, though some may be put off by the tart and salty flavors. Overall it's one of the more unique, rare styles of beer you don't see too many of on the shelves.

 

Just finished a stone ruination. Started it lastarted night and finished it now. Just as good several hours later. Try that shit with a bud if you want your stomach to turn.
