Some of you already know my sorry-ass story, but I'mma repost it ANYWAY;

I used to hate the taste of beer. It was not pleasurable.

About 5 years ago I finally started getting into it, and I got into Heineken Light. That was my beer.

I also could drink Sapporo and Red Stripe Light.

Up until the summer of 2011, that was my story.

Then I discovered Dos Equis (lager, on tap, with lime).

That's my shit right there.

As I mentioned on another thread, I tasted Weihenstephaner (lager) at a German restaurant in NYC and it went down SMOOTH. Really nice. One (giant) mug of the stuff and I was toast.

None of that fancy stuff. Just give me some plain ole Bud Light.

My dad drinks that like water.

Seriously.

It's his only daily fluid intake.

hehe...It's my mom's beer too! I actually like it too. I'm a cheap date. LOL

I like beers with lime...it's a match made in heaven!

Currently, i'm drinking Miller Chill but i've also had:

Corona

Dos XX

Tecate

BL (Bud Light) Lime

Molson Ice

I go to the bar at On The Border most Friday's after work. They serve it on tap, in big-ass frosted glasses...here, a pic is worth a thousand words...

I've had it on tap at Buffalo Wild Wings and it's almost as good (they don't chill the glasses there) and I've had it at another place called "Cabo" on tap on TWO separate occassions and it tasted like piss.

That's why we stick with OTB. PLUS, the bartended is funny, sweet, and has an enormous set of boobs...did I mention she gives out hugs to us regulars???

you gotta have it with a few slices of lime

And the best thing about it is, it tastes the closest to water. I don't drink beer for the taste, I drink to get fucked up. If I want something for taste, I'll drink a Coke.

I'm tripping out with all the Samuel Adams and ales up in here. A friend of mine owned a restaurant and he used to give me a case of Samuel Adams every now and then. I'll take any alcohol that's free. I'd still have to have mainly my Bud Light when I was drinking but I'd drink a Samuel Adams every two or three beers or so to make the Bud Light last longer. Whenever I'd have company over, they didn't like the Samuel Adams either. One day, my brother inlaw said he'd take the rest of it off my hands and keep it in his refrigerator for when the broke ass freeloaders would come over empty handed when they would play cards. Hell, they wouldn't even drink it and they'll drink anything free. Most of us just don't care for it down here.

Me too. But I have to start out the evening with either something like Bud Light, Coors Light, or something like that and then once I've had enough of them to get me buzzing to where I don't care, hell, I can even drink Milwaukee's Best. But I have to start out with something decent first. I also keep me a glass of either gin and orange juice or Jim Beam and Coke over to the side to sip on while I'm drinking beer to keep me good and drunk. I drink the clear liquor when I'm in a partying or horny mood and if I know I'm going to be drinking with someone that I might want to cuss out, I drink the dark liquor because it brings out the bad side of me.

My buddy stays away from Tequila.

He says that it puts him in a "fighting" mood...everytime he's had tequila he's gotten into a fight.

Doesn't happen with any other type of alcohol.

from Yahoo!;

Ancient primates also enjoyed alcohol. Humans aren't the only species clever enough to find out that ethanol gives drinkers a pleasant buzz. Chemist Steven Benner of the Foundation for Applied Molecular Evolution and his colleagues have found evidence that today's humans, chimps, and gorillas all descend from an ape who walked the Earth 10 million years ago and possessed a taste for — as well as the ability to metabolize — alcohol. Benner was able to determine this by looking at the enzymes of extinct primates, connecting their genetic code with modern humans. [Science News]

First, anything from Rogue.

Second, anything from Lagunitas Brewing Company.

Third, anything from Mendocino Brewing Company.

If none of that is available, strong ales. I love IPAs, double and triple strong stouts, red ales, and in particular, barleywines. Have a strange love of witbiers (white beers), too.

Always from small to mid-size micro breweries.

Don't like most beers labeled as "lager" and I hate anything with Saaz hops. I can actually pick them out if they're one of the ingredients. Absolutely hate 'em.

Tequila is dangerous but I still love it. I think I told this story....

About meeting my future in-laws and I was soooo nervous I kept throwing back shots of Tequila. Well, I ended up on my hands and knees chasing after their bulldog under tables and what not. This is what I was told because I couldn't remember a damn thing. Thank goodness they didn't hold this against me.

I like all Belgium beers, if you go to Belgium you'll not won't 97% of the beer made here. I will say this try Bud Platinum Light.

This beer is very smooth, I heard it wasn't selling well so I purchased a couple of cases. Higher alcohol content, maybe that's why I like it.

I know. By who me or his family?

The saving grace everyone was kinda tipsy... though they weren't crawling around on their hands and knees chasing after a puppy bulldog either.

I righted the ship the next day, his mother used to get up early to cook breakfast and if you were a guest you were suppose to cooking something, they never had. I fried some green tomatoes and brought Franks hot sauce along with me. She (Marie) laughed about me bringing Franks, never heard of it. I kinda knew I made a fool of myself and apologized and explained my state of mind. No one ever said anything about that night until 20 years later, my father-in-law was telling his granddaughter about meeting me for the first time and pulled out a pic chasing '"Che". That was wrong. I never drunk Tequila around them again.
