Decibel 0 #1 March 2, 2004 Not only is it one of the most popular beers at my DZ, it seems that many other skydivers like it. Personally, I prefer my homebrew... :> By the way, a Dutch friend of mine assures me that Heineken is the Dutch equivalent to Budweiser... think about that next time you tip back a cold one! :P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ifics 0 #2 March 2, 2004 Down here in Texas its Shiner Bock, eveyone drinks it (including me, its MMmMmmMMm good) Its a beer local to Texas. So I guess what beer the DZ likes is different everywhere, I mean nobody is perfect we all cant drink Shiner Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It might be as popular in Holland as Budweiser is here, but it DEFINITELY tastes a lot better than Budweiser (of course, that is personal.. but I think a lot of people would agree to that) Real dutch Heineken tastes nowhere near the Heineken they serve you here...

Decibel 0 #5 March 2, 2004 koune: Yeah, I guess it is... is there any way to move it? vdschoor: Heh, I agree, it is definately better than Bud... but then he actually *likes* Bud, so I suspect his opinion might be suspect. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blahr 0 #8 March 2, 2004 QuoteQuoteIsn't this something for the talk-back forum? No it's a critical aspect of general skydiving! Opposing point of view: I'm a recovering alcoholic and I dont drink. I DO skydive. Some of us prefer to not be inundated with the alcohol threads. If you are going to post about beer, wine, liquor, and getting hammered, thats fine but I dont think its unreasonable to ask that folks be sensitive enough to at least keep them in the proper forum. This isnt it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caress 0 #12 March 2, 2004 I love Heineken, so does my hubby! It goes good off the ribs at play time, and I think it goes well with chocolate-chip cookies. It is a matter of opinion as to what is considered yummy. It is the beer of choice among our friends out here. I've learned.... That being kind is more important than being right.

Rainbo 0 #21 March 2, 2004 Ahhhh. You bring back memories. Beer drinking hasn't been the same since I got back from my job in Gouda. I did seven months there for my company in 97. I could use a good triple right now. RainboRainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

bluskidave 0 #24 March 2, 2004 Hey Deci, I vote for your home brew over the heinies but with Dave Hobbs bringing Newcastle brown ale along with Corona,ShinerBock, Dos Equiss Special lager, Guiness, and of course Phil and Debs' Miller Lite there is no reason one must drink all the Heineken.Are you bringing any home brew this weekend?
