8. For the first 15 - 20 years I was a Coors Light/Bud kind of guy
then my brother got into home brewing and after a few years of drinking his fine work, I found I no longer loved the cheap stuff. I accidently became a beer snob.

9. I have a friend in CT who used to brew his own beer.
Quite impressive and could knock you on your ass.

I would make my own, but don't have the room for it here. Oh well.

3. Water, and a little bit of light lemonade
I'd like to consume some liqour, but the wife is asleep, and I don't really care to drink alone.

13. Why would you assume that?
The place called Red Hook is in Brooklyn. :P

Also, the beer has an Eastern brewery in Portsmouth, NH.

17. 'tis flavorful--and this one was free :)
Went to the liquor store yesterday hoping to find a six pack of the stuff, since the only way it seems to be available in my area is as 2 of the 12 bottles in the "Family Reunion" sampler. The store didn't have a six pack, but they did have a single loose bottle of the stuff (I know not why), which he threw in for free with the sampler :woohoo:

"It's always "beer-thirty" my friend!" :toast:

Pretty damn good, actually. I find myself really loving the summer seasonal beers, such as Leinie's Summer Shandy and Sunset Wheat.

29. Alpine.


New Brunswick’s award-winning lager was first brewed in 1937 by P.W. Oland from a batch of pure yeast he discovered in New York. Coming up with a name for his new brew proved difficult because most beer names during that time were inspired by Germany and Austria and with World War II looming on the horizon, it seemed like a good time to break with tradition. Finally, P.W. Oland found his solution on a Christmas card featuring images of the world-famous Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps. The new beer would be called Alpine. The rest, as they say, is history.

Many pork and chicken dishes (BBQ anyone?) compliment Alpine Lager. One of the most popular pairings: pizza.

hahahah, stupid history on the site, but fuckin good beer.

31. Seeing as how I went to a party last night, I'll go down the list:
First stop at a "Tequila Fridays" spot my ride goes to every Friday with his work-buddies, so I had a nice shot of sipping tequila (can't remember the brand.)
At the party, I had a VitaMix frozen-fruit smoothie with two shots of Tito's Handmade Vodka.
Later, I had some of a pre-mixed margarita on the rocks, with an additional shot of some mighty tasty pomegranite liqueur :D

And topped it all off last night due to some hurting teeth with a percocet.
