Cheapest beer ever, costs only 0,40€! Sure, not the best beer ever but still do-able though.

Ha ha, silly, it all depends on where you live. Different areas have different distribution deals, better or worse, and some states allow more and better beer to be sold at retail (that is, some states still restrict shipping into state beers above a certain ABV--and many of those are the better beers).

My general advice: Stay away from imports. Most are lagers and aren't as flavorful as ales, and as well have been shipped long distances over time and are not going to be as fresh as a good local or regional microbrew.

Go for a good local or regional microbrew. Something ale. IPAs are a good bet.

This is such a gross misunderstanding. Yes, the big American beers--Bud, Coors, Sam Adams, et al--are indeed shit. But there are plenty of small domestic brews out there that beat the pants off imports.

it's a decent dark beer-- i dont drink much dark beer in the summer though-- though you might, especially in the evening.

let's see...

gmku-- a nice cold lager on a hot day is one of life's simple pleasures! come on... there is a place for those in life (and no, it's not the pisspot, ha ha ha)

gmku 05.29.2008 01:34 PM

Ha, yes, there is a place in life for a good lager. Just not in mine! I can't help it. I'm a beer snob. Meh, I dunno, I just have never liked lagers much.

Okay, gmku's break time is over! Back to work!

Rob Instigator 05.29.2008 02:16 PM

I like the guiness
I like drinking cans of tecate with lime on a hot day

I like Rolling Rock

I like Lone Star ($1.50 at most punk dives in Texas)

I like to taste all beers actually. they are all good in different ways. the only type of beer I have tasted and not enjoyed is unpasteurized ales, the ones made by monks, which trigger in me a terrible alcohol allerguic reaction.

gmku 05.29.2008 03:07 PM

OMG, Lone Star. Blecchh. Rolling Rock, ralf. I am having severely nauseating flashbacks.

Of course back in my AF days in Tejas, I used to drink the Lone Piss. I used to let my doberman drink it, too.

DNAINTHEDNA 05.29.2008 03:14 PM

ive seen this at random stores...and its one of my faves

 

gmku 05.29.2008 03:22 PM

why. All I can say is, why. Why for the love of God. *head in hands, tears in eyes, disbelief coursing through brain*

girlgun 05.29.2008 05:20 PM

DNAINTHEDNA 05.29.2008 05:21 PM

Pookie 05.29.2008 05:21 PM

hahahaaaa no.

in oklahoma we have really weird liquor laws. you can buy 3.2 or faker beer at convenience stores and grocery stores. in order to get real beer (like guinness), you have to buy it at room temp at a liquor store m-saturday 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.. liquor stores sell real beer. but there are some brands that make both faker beer just for us okies (or utah i think?) and real beer. like you can get shiner, tecate, pbr and probably a couple of others with alcohol content of 3.2 at a convenience store or 6 point at liquor store. something like bud, coors, etc... is ONLY 3.2 in oklahoma... whereas if you cross the border, it's 6 pt.
