Fair enough. You pick your battles.

Drinking a Boatswain Double IPA right now, only $2 for the bomber. Great value for the price, feel like I'm drinking for free.

not my favorite. I did, however, find it to be very bitter. Especially compared to Sierra Nevadas IPA.

DFH Burton Baton, homebrew Indian Brown Ale, homebrew summer wheat, homebrew DIPA, BORIS, 10th Anniversary Ruination, and um... a 12 pack of Genny Cream Ale are what I'm rolling with to the party I'm going to.

And by summer wheat, I mean 55 of them.

Best mass produced that can be found just about anywhere IMO.

Had a back in black, followed by a $2.99 bomber of arrogant bastard in wake of the news of heckert probably being fired. What a fucking joke the browns org has become if that's true.

I had about 6 MGDs while tuning my bike with a buddy of mine. Sometimes there's nothing like pounding some shitty beers.

Awesome !!! Had about 3 Celebrations then The Devil Dancer. It was lights out for The Wife after that. I managed a the PW and drank half a Two Hearted, then it was nite nite time for me. I love how the Devil Dancer pours a 'redish' color. So. Much. Hops.

The first one I bought this year was a single. I can't remember how much it was. Next time at the store the Beer and Wine Manager was there and he gave me a 4 pack to purchase. First time in Ohio as it is 12% this year...or at least the label says 12% as it's been 13% in the past.

Just realized I typed Celebrations the other day. That should be Centennials. That's what happens when I post sober.

I drank a 6 pack of Mama's Little Yella Pils this weekend. Love me some pilsners during the summer.

I had a couple Spotted Cow Lagers in Milwaukee yesterday. Pretty good, not sure if I would make it my everyday beer given the chance, a little too cloudy for my liking.

Finally had Le Freak last night. A Belgian-IPA mix had me skeptical, but that was delicious!
