IMO, with the exception of Leinie's original, one would be well served by limiting oneself to beers/ales/malt beverages from one of four countries:

1. Scotland.
2. England ("bitter" only, ideally "cask ales").
3. Belgium.
4. Australia (stout only).

Of course, if all one cares about is having a horrible hangover, there's always Stella.

Wait until you guys get old.

There are stages to this whole beer drinking thing.

I think most of you are still in the pseudo-sophisticate quasi-beer snob stage.

My biggest criteria is the smell of the beer farts, and I will waive that prerequisite for about a 2 dollar a case price differential. lol

LOL +1

Back when I drank and lived in a bachelor pad (this was when I lived with a bunch of college guys.. I didn't go. I enjoyed all the parties without the payment/school work) I remember drinking A LOT of Milwaukee's Best Light bottles. I believe they were $5 a case of 12. You can't go wrong with that. Now, mind you, I hated the Beast. HATED it. Until I tried it in the bottles. It was like a totally different beer! I'd pregame with a 6 pack of Bud Light, then move on to 2 cases of the Beast, then hit the bars. Well, bar. We'd never make it out of the first place we hit.. LOL

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

Yeah.. We drank that stuff because we really had no choice. It was either beer, or food. Most of the time it was beer. And even then we had to sacrifice taste for affordability. We were smart shoppers, though, that's for sure. $20 would get my friend and I a large Papa Murphy's pizza, 2 cases of the Beast, and a six pack of Bud Light. That was our Saturday morning/noon.

Now this is a bunch I can get behind, so to speak.

Royale Order of the Blue Flame

I have a problem with their math. It is stated that one in eight people produce enough methane for it to be flammable.

These people must be too prissy to drink Milton Bradley. a/k/a "Toy beer" in these parts, you guys are calling it Milwaukee's Best...or the "Beast"

It ain't the beast for nothin' is all I'm sayin'...

There is no friggin' way that those farts generated after sucking down a twelve pack of Milton Bradley are not highly flammable, I don't give a damn who is drinking it.

lol

Last time I was in Green Bay I tried Spotted Cow. Nothing special. It was ok. I think its probably only popular because it has a funny name.

I don't get beer farts, so that doesn't factor into my evaluation at all.

The closest I have ever come to a decent lager was Baltika Extra Lager, a Russian beer. It was an unusually malty, almost fruity beer, 9% alcohol if I remember correctly. I enjoyed the first half of it, but then the sweetness got cloying and I had a hard time finishing the whole thing. The buzz was pleasant, however. ;)

Yeah, really. Beer drinking is so, well, 20-something'ish.

What do I drink? Glad you asked.

If a beer, I'll drink Guinness. Probably has nothing to do with the beer and everything to do with when I'm drinking Guinness, I'm imagining myself with a hot redhead. I love redheads.

Bombay Sapphire with the bottle of Vermouth nearby (but not in the actual martini glass) with two olives, stirred, not shaken. That's a real martini. Vodka in a martini glass is NOT a martini. It's just vodka in a martini glass.

Or Johnny Walker Scotch, Black Label. I'm not snobby enough for the more expensive labels yet. Just pour it over ice.

If you're drinking a Bud or a Coors, especially Coors light, then I'm just going to have soda pop because if you're not going to drink, I won't either. In that case, Dr. Pepper or Cherry Coke.

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.

bboystyle (29-Apr) : Tom*

Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?
