Beer

I won't say anything about my poor drinking habits years ago, or how they led me to disaster. It means nothing and does not pertain to this post ...sorry:oops:

Say all you want, IMHO. It could end up making a difference in someone's life. Just do it in your own thread where it is appropriate and not a hi-jack.

We all are aware to one degree or another, the potential perils of alcohol. But the lecture does not belong in a "what's your favorite beer?" thread.

For one I dont recall the TOPIC of this thread ... Whats your theory on beer... it was actually what is your prefered beer ... if you dont drink beer stay out of it or change the channel ... if you want to preach how awful it is go to the spiritual room and counter it there where others will tend to agree with you ... if you have nothing nice to say about the DISCUSSION here stay out of it or change the channel .... Now back to our regular scheduled program.

As for me I drink Bud Light bottles if I am at Buffalo Wild Wings I drink a tall Blue Moon ... other wise I will have an occasional Crown and seven. Some of the Bud light commercials are great I cant wait to see what they do for the Super Bowol commercials.

OH, I get it now.

NEW RULE: You may only reply to a thread if you are in complete agreement with the discussion. Anything said to the negative, will be dealt with harshly ..

We dont need new rules we just need the ones we have enforced .... hijacking a thread for your own benefit would be a rule that would be broke here .... discussion about a topic you might not agree with is not a rule infraction. No where in this thread does it say for you to go out and START drinking it was what do you PREFER (implies you already drink a beer) .... see the HUGE difference there.... this would be one of the problems with these forums ....

So you get to tell people what they can talk about and what threads they can be a part of? Yet you bristle when someone adds some input you don't like?

I say that if you don't like someone else's advice, you ignore it and carry on...that's my take.

I think that you miss the point of many of the threads from people that have been down this road before....real life experiences from people who understand the utter foolishness many people take drinking to and how it completely takes over people's lives. For some it has a spiritual side but others don't want to see their friends' lives ruined by alcoholism.

If this thread were "what's your favorite poisonous snake" and I had kept a black mamba as a pet and been bitten and almost died....do you think that anyone would have a problem with me giving my first hand experience? Would anyone bristle at me saying "believe me, I have been bitten and this is a bad idea"?

For some reason when you get in front of people's good times, no matter how good your intentions are they bristle.

That's it from me on the topic....carry on.

I don't drink like I used to but still have a few every now and then. I like michelobe light most of the time but drink michelobe amberboch and fosters to. We have a beer made here in ky that after it is brewed it is aged in used bourbon barrels for like 10 days,it's called ky bourbon barrel ale. I payed 12$ for 4 of these things and couldn't drink it,the bourbon smell and taste I couldn't handle,even though I used to drink wild turkey like water. I enjoy an ice cold pint of jäger often though.

And as I already stated ... NOBODY is telling anyone to drink here .... its a discussion about what you already do .... PERIOD ..... if you want to start a discussion about how bad it is and the affects it has on a persons life then you should do that where it is appropriate .... if you think that should be the lounge then do it there no in a thread about a totally differerent discussion ... like I said if you dont like the current discussion stay out of it or dont read it ... just like the TV at home or a radio station ... its nothing personal here its just the way a forum discussion should be allowed to run not everyone will EVER have the same beliefs but for that person to be told his beliefs (when they are the ones that start the thread) are wrong and are never a good thing ... which ever way you want to spin it.

And Im not bristled at all ... just have a conversation about the TOPIC at hand .... trying to keep to the DISCUSSION of this thread is all.

10-4 we're all friends here. Whatever the discussion, people gotta understand that if someone with life experience you don't have sees you going down a road they've driven, they can't help but warn you.

But anyway, apologies for hijacking or helping take part in the terrorist overthrow of this thread.

As for the original topic, my palate must be broken because I can't taste any difference in any of them.

Peace to all.

Sorry, didn't realize Scott approved.

Tear each other up fellas.

Nobody is tearing anyone up in here ... thats why Scott approves and thank you Chris ...

This really does go a long way you did the right thing.

Guess once again I am the bad guy here .... oh well it is what it is ... I stand by that I did nothing wrong all I did is wanted to know where it went and why .... and I explained why I fealt the way I did is all ...

Way to go Mr. Tominator.

People of RT, take note here. He made a simple mistake and fixed it. Kudos Sir.

Now back to beer.

Who makes their own and what flavors?

There are a couple of guys at work that have been making their own brew for years, some good, others not so much. I might have to give it a shot soon and am in the market for a start style kit to see if I like it. Any ideas?
