Vallerina 2 #51 September 26, 2002 Quoteguinness isn't actually sweet, it's a dry stout. Are you sure you aren't confusing it with something else? I've had it numerous times, and it always tastes like maple syrup to me. It definitely ranks up there with the beers I'll only drink if they're handed to me for free.There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyhi 24 #52 September 26, 2002 Quoteliving in new york, i love my brooklyn beers. Park Slope Brewing Company? What about the others, Heartland Brewery, Greenwich Village Brew Pub, Chelsea Brewing Company. Ever been to Jeremy's on a Friday afternoon? Buckets of beer. New York is a good place to love beer.Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skygal3 0 #53 September 26, 2002 what about a fruity beer? in the western states you can find a fat tire, which is a very good beer. my home dz swears by heineken and will drink nothing but...i like heineken but rolling rock is nice if you want to drink a lot of it, if it is really really cold...but i've noticed since i have been drinking beer it tends to make me fat ...(and makes boys fart...ew!)

AggieDave 6 #54 September 26, 2002 I love Fat Tire, its a great beer, brought 2 cases of it to the DZ to "pay" for my new rig last weekend.

Jimbo 0 #55 September 26, 2002 QuoteOk, i've finally decided to start drinking beer. Make your own. It isn't that difficult and the beauty is that you can make it exactly the way _you_ like it. What could be better? That reminds me, I need to go out and find about 15 pounds of honey. Mmmmm.... - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

riddler 0 #57 September 26, 2002 If you like sweet and salty, go with Fat Tire - it's not my favorite, but it can be found in a lot of places, unlike the much better brew you can only find locally in Seattle, Denver, Portland and other brew-hubs. MMM - Great American Beer Fest. That's the same weekend as the 60-way in boogie Lamar - too bad Lamar and Denver are so far apart.Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
