Corona with 2 limes and a tequila chaser with salt and lime. Works every time!!!

Lineman, Linebacker? Turbo Dog and Nathan's Hot Dog w/Chilli!

Receiver, Defensive Back? Amstel Light and Grilled Oysters!

Quarterback? It doesn't matter - Drew is the only quarterback and is on a secret beer and diet combo developed by a Belgian Priest and Tibetan Monks - so the rest are holding clipboards or like the rest of us waiting for our Monday Morning Quarterback Session!

Between Beers/Chaser - My Buddies from the 1919 Club have a generous shot of the rum of our namesake...

I'd say what's CHEAP, because beer is basically 5% alcohol and 95% urine. Your body processes the alcohol in the form of buzz and your kidneys process the rest and away it goes!!!

Alaska

Dixie, Dixie Blackened Voodoo, Dixie Crimson Voodoo Ale and as was already mentioned by Mardisgras9, the Abita Amber! Oh how I miss those flavors as I have only been able to enjoy them when I was in the Crescent City visiting during Jazz Fest many years ago. So Dixie or Abita of any kind and I'm in my happy place!!!

Dixie doesn't taste the same as it did when I was in high school.

Dixie isn't made in New Orleans anymore. It was sold to a company and is made in Atlanta..... BLUCK

All the Abita Beers are the unofficial beers of N'awlins.

Just read up on DIXIE. The DIXIE Brewery was severely damaged during Hurricane Katrina. They can't get the old Brewery back in operation so they outsource other brewery's to make the brand.

That probably explains why it doesn't taste the same.

They're doing what they can to bring it back to New Orleans so I'll buy a DIXIE next time I guzzle some brew to support the local brand.
