:woohoo:



I'm going back on payday to clean out the rest of their inventory! :woohoo:
The dancing goat-man kind of worries me, though. Perhaps this is some kind of Evil Twilight Zone Devil Beer?

1. I remember drinking Stag Beer at 5.99 a case.
You got what you paid for, too. :)

2. "Bock" is the German word for goat.
So most bock beers have a goat in the logo somewhere.

Don't worry about the logo; there's an Austrian beer called "Rauchbock" which means "Smoked Bock" or "Smoked Goat" if you want to be literal. The label showsa goat with a cigarette in its mouth!

3. I should have remembered that!
My German skills aren't what they used to be. Anyway, it's quite a nice beer, I just got lucky enough to find a distributor trying to clear his inventory, and I'm more than happy to help him out!

4. I'd try that
I'm a malt liquor guy myself, though:

10. I bought it at a distributor in Carbondale.
The pale bock and the festive ale were on sale. I don't know if they were trying to clear out the seasonal beers or if they're not carrying Dundee anymore. That would be a shame, because I think I just became a fan.

11. Yes, life was good that day.
On Sunday afternoon I tied my first deer hair bass bug, and on Sunday evening I caught two beautiful largemouth bass fishing with it. Monday afternoon I found the cheap beer, and Monday evening I made fried fish and hush puppies for myself and my parents, and it was awesome. I really had my mojo workin' for a few days there.

8. Lions Head (Wilkes Barre, PA) is $10 - in bottles even!
That's a really good beer!

12. I haven't tried Lion's Head yet. I'll have to give it a try.
I was surprised to see it in the stores, because I thought Lion's Head was mostly brewing Yuengling Lager now. I guess they're doing both.

13. I once got a bottle of wine for $2 that didn't suck...
of course after downing a bottle of Mad Dog, the next day I had a hangover that mightily sucked!
