second one: oh fuck i've only tried the 90 minute . yeah, where'd you get that one?

Moan & Dove has it, last time I had it it was like $11; last time I asked for it, they were out of stock.

Whole Foods has it for $9.50. Liquors 44 for around $10. Spirit Haus for $10, I think. Spirit Haus also has a lot of other tasty beers....

And Russels has the 1.5L Baltika 9 for $3.50, I think. When I get better, I'm going to get one and get piss drunk on just that one celebrating my graduation.

Thanks for posting that Myra, I hadn't tried it before. I bought a bottle this afternoon, and I must say it's extremely tasty

Edit: The one I got looks like a darker one than your pic though. I assume there are different types? My local only had the dark one.

I hear Toohey's is great stuff. Must get myself some if I ever make it to Oz.

Tooheys is pretty average really. There are worse, but there are definitely better too.

Like Coopers Sparkling Ale

Australia has some awesome micro-breweries. I visited the Mountain Goat and Hargreaves Hill breweries when I was there last.

Wait, really? A litre and a half for $3.50?

What I drink a lot of the time is this.

Alaskan Amber
Alaskan Winter Ale

5.5 years in a college town with not much fondness for lame beer pong / creepy dudes with backpacks / meatheads trying to get laid parties will do that to you. Although, tbh, I've been going to bars only since 2006.

Russels is pretty good - for a store right in town, their prices are not bad. They have good deals on Scotches and Whisky and I like their mixed mystery 6-packs. Good wine selection too. If you want beer though, Spirit Haus is THE (expensive-ish) place.

And I finally found a cigar place - the tiny liquor store on Rt. 9 on the wal-mart/whole-foods side - not so tiny when you walk in, and they carry hookah tobacco too. They sell Romeo Y Julieta cigars, which is confusing, since I thought those were Cuban - maybe they sell the Dominican version.

Pro-tip: if you need booze on Sunday after 6, go to the tiny Rt. 9 liquor store or Liquors 44. Since they're in Hadley, they're open till 11 (mmm, town laws)

Yup, something like that. Of course, it doesn't keep longer than about a day in the fridge. Ask me, any beer should be drank right after being open!

I should not know this much about any of these. I need to find a job and do something productive!

Had this last night:

Phenomenal! The head had the most intense chocolatey taste...delicious!

Posted by Psiweaver on Jan-07-2009 03:56:

Hoegaarden
Le Fin Du Monde
Stella
Guinness

a whole bunch of others that I can't remember.

Posted by miamitranceman on Jan-07-2009 05:27:

At the moment: Anchor Steam.

Dos Equis Lager

Posted by whiskers on Jan-09-2009 04:33:

The Baltika 9 is 50.7oz, 8% alc, $3 with deposit, and yes, it CAN be finished in one night...

Posted by serch54 on Jan-10-2009 00:05:

for any of the Hoegaarden or Blue Moon fans, try New Belgian's Mothership Wit.. I think it's the superior white (and Im not a fat tire fan)
Boddington's Pub Ale in the yellow can!

Ballast Point brewery is right down the street from my house, so I have the fortune to hop over there and get a few growler fills a week. They have a ton of specialty brews no sold in stores. If you can, try their Sculpin IPA - the most unique IPA I've ever had

Stone brewery definitely has a style which you either enjoy or hate it seems. But regardless of how you feel about their beer, go the their World Bistro if you ever get the chance. it's AWESOME. huge beer garden with waterfalls and chillout areas. and their food is a 10

for you NorCal'ers: Russian River Brewery is on point. I highly recommend all their beers (and the pizza at the resteraunt is great!)
