Beer Thread or "Nine Beers Americans No Longer Drink"
 

Nine Beers Americans No Longer Drink - Yahoo! Finance

Figure it's about time for a 'beer thread' ... I need a break. Saints are losing, Lions are losing, there's the absurdity of being accused a racist because I may disagree with liberal propaganda from time-to-time, world coming to an end 12/21, Falcons possibly winding up in the SuperBowl, going over the 'fiscal cliff', wrestling is not 'real' ... it's all almost too much for a man to bear ... almost. That's where the beer comes in, :mrgreen:.

Sapporo is probably my all-time favorite. It's light, it's crisp, it's clean. It's like water with cool flavoring. It's also imported, slightly expensive & hard to find.

Then come the 'shop-guy/steel-worker' beers ... PBR, Stroh's, Blatz ... in that order. Cut my teeth on a Blatz, literally. Neighbor gave me one when I was a kid, put it to my mouth and tried to remove the cap with my teeth ... didn't work out well. PBR (Pabst Blue Ribbon) remains my personal favorite & in 1976 was the #1 selling beer in America. Stroh's was a hometown favorite & a surefire way to have a hangover the next morning ... always figured it had something to do with the 'fire-brewing'.

Honorable Mention goes to Stella Artois, brewed for the holidays & I keep a few bottles in the fridge during that time in order to make visitors feel special.

I don't really drink any of the nine beers on the list, and if you offered me #9, Milwaukee's Best, I'd ask you if you're trying to pick a fight with me, :lol: ... not that I'm so much a beer-snob that I wouldn't drink anything put down in front of me either. The Buds', the Millers', the Old Milwaukees' & the Michelobs' just never appealed to me all that much.

So, here's to you Black & Gold, :cheers: ... and excuse me if I get started on my holidays a little bit early this year, :mrgreen:.

You had me until here, lol.

I drink the Amber beers myself. I, like you though, usually would drink whatever they put in front of me.
