Official Team BEER-FI (Beer Appreciation Thread!)

Meh. I've tried beer, enjoyed it on occasion (if it's good). Overall, though, one thing I've learned is that nothing replaces a good caffeinated soft drink for me. Beer is just too harsh for my taste, and yeah, it's definitely an aquired one. But top three are Guiness, Yuengling, and Killian's "Irish Red" that I've had.

Excellent team. I'm a purist; a common, watery Budweiser is fine by me. The better beers are just lagniappe treats.

The keeper of beer, my local gas station, is open 24/7. I've never been disappointed with their vigilance in keeping the point-of-purchase box-of-beer filled with ice. 12, 16, 24 ounce cans! Which combination to pick and how many? The chilly beers inside seem to school like fish making the choice confusing. Once I'm through gathering my selection it's off to the checker. I know them all. There's Tonya, Steve, Chip, and Dorris. I used to set my selection down on the stainless steel counter, but I noticed that lots of residual water would messy up their work space, so I now hold my beer until they have time to grab a plastic bag. I then do my own bagging. It saves time, and I think they really respect me for doing it. They have a small towel behind the counter dedicated for such problems, but I see no point making them use it.

Hop Ottin' IPA... Eye of the Hawk... Full Sail Amber... Butte Creek Winter... Deschutes Brewery Mirror Pond Ale...

I don't drink much, being the prototypical cheap drunk. One Chimay Grande Reserve and I'm gone. Two Eye of the Hawk, same thing. Hop Ottin' is lighter but I still have a hard time walking after a couple. I do better with water.

I am rather normal looking. I am not having too many of them. Maybe 1-2 in a week. That doesnt mean that I dont enjoy them.
