I'm not a big beer drinker, but my wife brought home a couple beers last night that I enjoyed, Shiner Bock from Texas, and a Harp Lager from the folks that make Guinness.

I settled into the couch to watch TV tonight with a glass full of Young's Old Nick Barleywine. Very tatsy, but I'm sure it has nothing on that Old Guardian Tom wrote about.

Had a beer or two with the neighbour.
I'm not a microbrewery snob or anything... but was good to not have to work late to catch up or be anywhere... I brought over a Guinness, he served me a Corona afterward. From Irish soccer hooligan to frat boy in 15 minutes. Bren R. |

You may just dislike pedestrian beer. Try something expecially tasty and you may change your mind. Start with Belgium.

Quote:Stelllllaaaaaaa... you know, I have one Stella Artois left in the fridge, and I can't even give it away... the guys drank around it to the hard lemonade and Smirnoff Twist and left that behind. As a friend remarked on his trying it for the first time "oh, man... that's like tossing a skunk's salad!" Bren R. |

That's a horrible visual. Thanks, Bren.
![]() When I said Belgium, I was referring to the Abbey or Trappist brews, of course.

I think Stella Artois is heinous, even when it is fresh and not light-struck. That could be the most disappointing beer I've ever had.
