quite a decent idea, but there are a lot of cheater deleters around here.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 11:46 PM) "The Jesus" I was going to suggest The Abiding Dudes as a team name.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 11:44 PM) You ever watch Thirsty Traveler? He got dysentery from some. No I haven't seen it. I watched some of a couple of Three Sheets episodes online and that looks like a good one too. I seriously think those guys have the greatest gigs in the universe. I would drink some good ol' virgin-saliva-fermented corn beer in a heartbeat just for the experience.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 11:39 PM) Like chicha? Exactly right. The traditional beverage would be primarily maize as the fermentable, digested with saliva to yield fermentable sugars and then often spiked with manioc or other psychotropic agents.

Oh, maybe let Gage work on the site and kill it.

Just need to let it go.

QUOTE (Kid Gleason @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 10:19 PM) Beer drinking has been calmed down, but I still drink only the finer things. The whole reason is more for the loss of weight thing. I suggest letting that Beast age as long as you can. It was a VERY potent brew in the alcohol burn department. I have a feeling the longer that badboy sits, the better for all. I still have one of mine in the crawlspace and am waiting for the prime time to crack it. Maybe the way you can "repay" me is that we both agree to crack them on the same night and write about them here. Oohh, I really like that. I haven't gotten off my duff to chill mine and won't yet, until there's an evening that works. I'm right there with you on the cutting back to lose weight thing, sadly. I'm back to trying to eat well and lose some pounds, and the recreational drinks are the biggest impediment. Hard to cut out.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 09:44 PM) Well we got the game back from last nights loss. And the Mariners actually help us out tonight!!

Every time you go away you take a piece of me with you. You think Hall and Oates were writing about lepers when they penned that one?

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 07:14 PM) I just want to make sure that I don't accidentally say something wrong on your facebook page. QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 08:00 PM) Please...please....please dont say anything on there about this. My facebook page is really watered down as Tex so kindly pointed out on my wall. Soxtalk is where I tell all my real thoughts and stories. This is going to be a hoot when it blows up. I smell Sweeps Week Ratings Blitz!

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 08:50 PM) I've had Bell's cherry stout but I just walked away with what I usually do: I don't like cherry. QUOTE (G&T @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 09:15 PM) Same problem for me. If you've ever had Ommegang Three Philosophers it's the same issue. Everyone seems to love 3 Philosophers but I can't stand it. Interestingly, I like real cherries. But in drinks, it all tastes like Tylenol. I used to brew a mean choke cherry stout based on the recipe from Charlie Papazian's origial CJHB book that I bet you both would have liked. I do know what you're talking about though. The Bell's cherry stout is not an every day beer for sure. It sure as hell beats the taste of the gawdawful cherry wheat Sam Adams came out with several years ago. Any love for kreik lambics? For fruit lambics I'll usually grab a framboise first in deference to the wife, but I quite like the kreiks as well.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 08:47 PM) Flaxx and G&T, Any of you tried Xingu? It's a black ale from Rio De Jineiro I quite like. Comparable to Rogue's Dead Guy, if that's your bag. QUOTE (G&T @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 09:14 PM) I have not had Xingu, but that's a schwartbier which I do enjoy. Nothing goes with hot dogs like schwartbier. I know, I'm sophisticated. Good beer with a fun history to it. Cultural anthropologist Alan Eames, aka, "the Indiana Jones of Beer" is the one most responsible for the beer. He cotends it was based on his South American anthropoligical research from Amazon areas where alcoholic cereal beverages were traditionally made using human saliva as a source of amylase enzymes. Sounds yummy, no? But G&T is right — the beer Eames and Brazil's Kaiser Brewery came up with is very modern and quite squarely in the Franconian black beer style ("I see your schwartz is as big as mine". . . ). I'll take a Köstritzer over a Xingu — both for regional "ur" authenticity and also because I've run into several abused bottles of Xingu that were past their prime. All in all though, a quality New World interpretation of a classic Old World style.

QUOTE (Kid Gleason @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 08:02 PM) Oh, I know!!! There's this beer...it's HIGH alcohol...it's called The Beast! Stop me if you've heard this one before... QUOTE (Kid Gleason @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 08:09 PM) I've only done it once before. I can't remember if there was anything special done. . . I was waiting for the right moment to give KGleason a special shout out for a wonderful gift a couple of years back. One I owe hime something special for. . . and then I heard these nasty rumors about him cutting back on his beer drinking. Say it ain't so, Kid! What may astound you is I have managed to hold on to The Beast to put a bit of age on it — yep, it's still waiting but getting impatient. I think it gets chilled tonight and consuned tomorrow! Back then. Florida got NO Avery products. Now we thankfully get lots, but I've never once seen The Beast so it is still a one-of-a-kind beer for me. One of my favorite beer cafes here has White Rascal on tap which I think is a pretty solid witbier interpretation.

Something bigger! Wind up the Victrola one more time!

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 05:41 PM) Huh? He followed that up with a "But. . . "

Who will stop the madness?

time has sped up

so much cheatin and deletin!

poo

Oh, I see Pants is a sneaky deleter too!

Nothing from you, Mr. Kettle.

Lung disease would be more enjoyable My L post was first, but Knight went all Delet-y Smurf and now I have to change mine? Boo-urns!

Just be thankful if you never saw the second movie. Worst movie ever.
