DO you change your oil while eating powdered donuts too DF?

**Sparks4Ever** · 08-24-2007, 09:18 AM

I really dig Jolly Pumpkin's Bam Biere. Certainly not for everyone though.

I've started drinking a fair amount of Leinenkugel's Original. Very refreshing pilsner. Unfortunately, it's pretty hard to find. Most stores only seem to carry Leinie's Red or their Wheat beers.

After several minutes of debate, I threw out my morals in favor of continuing drinking. I don't think they air those commercials anymore so I have lightened my stance, still have never paid a dime for it though.

I'm not even sure what this means...but I can change my own oil, I just choose not to. And I haven't had a donut in at least a year.

I drank miller high life in california a few weeks ago. 3 cases of it. It's fine. Gets the job done. No side effects.

I do like the new commercials with the guy who looks like Tony Gywnn. Particularly the radio ones where the callers call in to ask if they are living the high life. "Hi, I'm at this bistro-" hangs up. "What's a bistro. You are not living the high life".

I also had a beer out there called Fat Tire. It's from Belgium. That ws pretty good.

Cheap: Stroh's
Pricey: Tetley's

The new commercials are definitely a step up for miller high life, and the beer is fine.

I believe Fat Tire is from Colorado, by New Belgium Brewing Co...close.

Hopefully you had a nice trip and nobody broke into the trailer while you were gone.

**Oblong** · 08-24-2007, 10:34 AM

I can't even afford those trailers. A double wide in the valley still runs you $350,000.

what kind of hazing did your sorority sisters put you through?

I only drink Jack Daniels anymore if I can help it, but if I ever want to drink a beer, I just head for the mountains and drink me some

$7.99 for a case of 30, you can't beat that action

Fat tire is all over the place here.

I can't stand those Miller Commericals. When he goes into the fancy restaurants and the fancy stores and takes out the Miller High Life? Hey genius, there's no Miller High Life in those places! They sell GOOD food there, what the hell would they be doing with Miller High Life?

Impressive cost, it's about 15 bucks up here. I guess deposit, and maybe some stupid taxes will do that though.

**Tressel** · 08-24-2007, 11:09 AM

back when I was in high school it was $6.99 for a 24 pack.

It figures you would dislike the best new ad campaign running right now. "You mess with the high life, and the High Life will mess with you."

Actually, their radio commercial bums me out. The one where he disses the guy with the lime in his beer. I've been drinking Miller High Life with a lime in the neck of the bottle since I don't know how long.

**Tressel** · 08-24-2007, 11:13 AM

I like the part where he goes "next caller....*thump* *thump* *thump* and he just hangs out, absolutely hysterical

yeah but those places also sell $8 hamburgers. "You people crazy"

Hey at least you own up to it. I guess that's worth something.

I just cannot stand the taste. I can drink some liquor, but that is about it.

**RedTeamGo!** · 08-24-2007, 11:52 AM

Used to be Blue Moon, but right now nothing beats a Guiness. Black and Tans are also absolutely delicious.

**iceteebone** · 08-24-2007, 11:55 AM

Maybe I just need to venture out and try new beer? Basically I just had Miller, Bud, and Busch.

I love me some $8 hamburgers. Am about to go get myself an $8 Corned Beef sandwich.

Why? Because I'm simply not fat enough.

You must be from Ohio. Or Bay City.

Those are college beers. Cheap, easily accessible, mostly watered down. They're starter beers. Then you can move into other real kinds of beer, you know, ones with actual flavor.

i don't think you can get any of these beers in a 40oz. there seems to be a major disconnect between your taste in music and your taste in beer.

Houghton Lake area. I originally hail from Detroit, but I didn't drink when I was in middle school.

**RedTeamGo!** · 08-24-2007, 12:03 PM

The Limber Lost at Houghton Lake may be the worst bar I have ever seen.

That is considered Houghton Lake's finest.

I actually live in Roscommon and the local bar wanted to get a license for dancing (couples dancing, not pole dancing) and the towns people denied them saying it would lead to drugs and crime. Apparently dancing with your wife is a crime.

**RedTeamGo!** · 08-24-2007, 12:09 PM

The Limber Lost features 4 dollars cans of busch light and nothing on tap. Just insanely horrible.

I don't go to the bars here. Some of them actually have good food, but for drinking they are terrible.

My favorite is Tecate, but I drink a lot of Labatt, too. Rolling Rock is a good summer beer.

Didja stop by the brewery while in town? I took a tour, it was pretty cool to see.

**potthole** · 08-24-2007, 12:27 PM

Michelob Ultra Amber wasn't too bad. My preferred dark(er) beer is Leinicougals (spelled way wrong) Red, but Ultra Amber is descent.

**Blade** · 08-24-2007, 01:01 PM

Yuengling's (east coast)
Clipper City (Orioles micro Brew)
Molson Canadien
Labatt Blue
Monty Pythons Holy Grail Ale (only got this at Old Chicago Restaurant)
...and if im forced Bud Light

I'd highly suggest Bell's Oberon, it's like liquid gold.

You mean a FRUIT LIME??????

**mottsi** · 08-24-2007, 01:40 PM

My favorite beer is FREE BEER! hahahahahahah!

Actually mine are the following:
Guiness
Molson
RedHook Long Hammer IPA and their Blonde.
Miller Lite
Busch Light
Pike Brewery, I like about all of their beers, with Kilt Lifter being my favorite. I actually spent a good day sampling and resampling their product about two years ago. We drank enough that we couldn't remember where the rental car was. We found it the next afternoon. Oh good times.

Around $11 an 18 pack in Cen. Fla and we don't have deposits, just taxes.

you can get it a lot of places, including Costco.

Yup, I greatly enjoy it (when it can be purchased).

Since I don't drink - when ever I go to a brew pub I like to try their micro-brew root beers. Some of them are VERY good and most have little to no carbonation. It is a nice change of pace from A&W and Barqs.
