What's your favorite beer? I prefer a nice dry cider. Since my hubby works for a craft beer company I've become a beer snob. I used to never ever drink beer, jager was my drink of choice. Straight, no chaser, but water. However, my palate has widened and I'm not a fan of dark beers like stouts, but I'll try pale ales and lighter beers. (Going along with the topic things that annoy me, I'm procrastinating again!!!!)

 
Overall, I love a good German Hefeweizen. I got to spend a week in Germany in August and that's literally all I drank. I think I had a glass of water at one point though...

My new, easy to find favorite stateside though is Not Your Father's Rootbeer. Out of all the trending "root beer" beers gaining popularity, it's by far the best. I always loved root beer as a kid, and this stuff tastes so legit you can make a root beer float with it, which I highly recommend trying!

 
@Scootover88 I just realized you responded to this, but that "not your father's root beer" is yummy! We tried another one made from a different company and it was super sweet and just not a good flavor. We haven't tried making a float, but I think that may be the plan this weekend!

 
I love a nice Blonde Leffe. 
Ahhh Belgium's produce my favorite Ales.

I enjoy...

I grew up in Germany and absolutely loved any Hefe Weizen I could get my hands on.  It was the only style of beer that would quench my thirst after enjoying a nice spliff of tobacco and h&sh.   Since I have been stateside the last 25 years my beer tastes have varied.  Some people may frown upon this but I am a huge Stella Artois fan....yes I know its a corporate monolith that is brewing beer by the billions of gallons, but I think it tastes pretty damn good.  I also enjoy Heineken and Moosehead....they are all kind of in the same family, a little skunky but if you let them breath a bit, they taste great to me.

As far as craft beers go, I am really digging Allagash White..nice and dry but not overly fruity.  

 
when i was younger i used to love carlsberg. i stopped drinking for a while as an effort to get healthy, And when i went back the thought of carlsberg made me wretch. when i do have an occasional swally its carling or harp. but i do love blue moon also.

 
I go threw fazes ..Even tho ive given the booze up mostly i went onto stouts ..Loved Guinness but after 15 pints of it the stuff coming out the other end was not nice .. 

 
Lol it feels feels like a fresh bullet wound, and looks like a japanese flag.

 
So many beers and so little time.  I agree with aintnouse and enjoy Stella Ortois. Very tasty.

I'm with you on the Stella, @aintnouse. My favorite local craft is Sweetwater 420 pale ale. Refreshing.

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
