FAXE exist in europe too.. i did not know u had them here in North America

I'm not a Honey kinda guy but I tried Sleemans Silver Creek Lager. BLEH! That was a waste of money. $20.45 for a 12-pack, and the beer tastes like a cheap runoff of carona with a lime in it.

better idea....quit drinking completely and you save even more money...i do that....43 for a 24 is too much.

Labatt Dry, Black Label, Black Label Dry, Black Label Ice, Molson Dry, Steeler, Old Milwaukee, Labatt Ice.

They were all on sale $24 for 24 over the past few weeks (some of them still are)

Buy a two-four of the cheap shit and get a 6-pack of your favorite shit. Everything after the 3rd or 4th beer tastes the same anyway, so drink the good shit first then pound the cheap stuff.

No sacrifice too great when it comes to good beer. Heineken has a special place in my heart for some reason. Is anybody a fan of mead or a barley wine though?


Posted by DjSuez on Apr-29-2003 10:32:

oh come on, 5 liter barrels are very common here...we once did a race, who would empty one first...

i won, 2 hours, 35 minutes whehehe

Standard Irish can = 500ml - 1/2 litre
I'd say that's just thr european average though??

I hate those wee tiny 330ml cans. I reckon they were invented for the smaller man, so as he can go about sayin he had 15 cans of beer!! Where infact he only had the european equivalent of about 9.9 cans

my theory on the matter anyways

I was talking to the other Greg, but you're right.

Heineken is good stuff, but personally I prefer Boddington. They come in big cans too.

Most Americans are pansies when it comes to beer. I go to the bar and nearly everybody is drinking a light beer ... for the low calories!!! POSERS !!! Stupid frat boy mentality (except for my frat ) I miss the good old days of going to a gasthaus and they would give you your own mini-keg on the table. Canada is better but not by much ... the best beer in the world is in wien!


OMG dude your fraternity must be way cooler than everybody elses!

How ironic that only your house doesn't have the stupid 'frat boy' mentality.

Your house is probably the one that buys Coors original to look hardcore for not drinking light beer.


Posted by torontotrance on Apr-29-2003 15:20:

there is not much difference between light beer and normal beer in terms of calories.

here in holland i think that cans are even smaller than in the US. I'm drinking right now from a tiny Heineken can and feel pretty silly



Hahahah. I know the Heine bottles are so small! WTF? In Germany they serve you huge glasses though...

I was talking to a dude from Norway on MSN, and he said that most of the price of beer is just from taxes. I can't remember how much he said a six pack of Heine was...like 40 US dollars or something...some outrageous sum.


Posted by torontotrance on Apr-29-2003 15:27:

same here.

Molson and Labatt are companies, not beers. Both companies make several different brews. Have you tried all of them?

yea thats a 30 pack of cans probably of some american piss water beer, my favourite beer would have to be the Ayinger Maibock in a .5L bottle poured into my mug, but htye discontinued making that beer, so I'll settle for a Spatan

LMAO. Key Minus. That was my buddy's favorite beer. 30 packs were like $14.00

Yeah Ketel One is my liquor of choice.

I've seen some of the nastiest beers at our frat parties. Hmm lemme think...

Grain Belt
Classic Draft
Burger Light
Wisconsin Club

*pukes*

Someone mentionned Big Rock's Grasshopper. That's one of my favourite "local" brews. I usually go to the liquor store and buy something different each time. I'll just pick one of those 6 for $13 packs. It's good stuff but damned expensive. If I'm going to get wasted though, I'll buy two 1.5L bottles of Heine and a case of Kokanee Gold and

LOL!!! that is the staple of SIU also, at every party the kegs are that shit. even once at the liqour store my friend and I got into a convo with the worker there and he said that I haven't been down in Carbondale long enough beacuse I don't have Keystone Light running through my vains, I gladly told him that it was water and my roomate buy my Guiness BTW the strongest beer currently is actually a US beer, Samuel Adams Triple Bock, but I think it's more of a barley wine rather than a beer and it's as thick as syrup
