yeah i dont get the big deal...its actually a decent write up...i just wish he knew more about nyc bars...especially since he acts like hes the expert

[Rome]

He sounds like someone my age who's been * asked * to cut out boozing.

I'd farg his wife while he's out.

i have no qualms saying i will 100% die young of liver disease due to drinking...and my girl knows this...but id rather live my life to the fullest for its first 50-60 years than live a middling existence but stay born till 85

cracked open those vodkas today and the pear is incredibly good...sweet enough to drink on the rocks, and i can't stand vodka on the rocks. maybe the best tasting vodka i've ever had. the strawberry was definitely milder...tastes really fresh like you're cramming a strawbeery in your mouth with each sip....100x better than the artificially sweet ones...but not strong enough to drink straight. at least for me. i imagine it will be very good with a mixer though.
the habanero / bacon is obviously vomit inducing by itself but i will rate again after making bloodies with it for sixers tomorrow...i have a feeling it will be bangin.

supposedly coronoa 40's just hit the US...i despise coronoa but the bottle is pretty hott....has anyone ever seen these in their local market :hbionicbatsignal

Looks interesting, I won't go out of my way to drink Corona but it's okay every once in a while.

Bud Light is my every day beer, so last night I tried a Bud Platinum. Taste like shtein but it has more alcohol in it.

[ice grillin you]

never heard of bud platinum....how much more alcohol does it have

bud btw i think has the most alcohol of any big brewery domestic

Corona is a nice beer-like beverage on a hot day, when the drink is nice and cold. When it gets warm, though, Corona gets pretty nasty. I don't think I could down a 40 fast enough.

I tried Shock Top Raspberry Wheat yesterday. I've tried a few fruit flavored beers before but thought they were awful. This one had a nice taste to it.

im the same way with flavored beers...they generally repulse me....but this cat that tailgates with us and brews his own beer makes a strawberry i think?...and its pretty refreshing

I think it has double the alcohol that regular Bud has. I like to pace myself so getting something that has double the alcohol content isn't up my alley.

[ice grillin you]

holy farg double would mean 10%...which is stronger than any malt liquor.....i def wanna see this stuff now...

Apparently a regular Bud has %4.5 and Platinum has %6

[Munson]

I drank 4 beers as a "pregame" for the loop last night and ended up not needing a drink at the bar. 3 very strong, aged 3-6 months Dogfishes. I knew my tolerance has gone down over the last few months but goddamn.

[ice grillin you]

thats not accurate sd....bud has 5.0 i think maybe even a little higher

if this platinum is only a % higher nd gross then it can go to hell....if im drinking really gross (all beer is nasty) then it better be minimum 8%
