Well yeah, I have to say I am more of a red wine or spirits man - and yes a bourbon (Wild Turkey for me) and coke is always welcome, as is a dark rum and coke. I also like a nice whisky and ginger in the winter.

 

Still - there is something about living here that inspires more beer drinking - especially in the summer.

Oh dear, let's not go there

 

The Yokes store in the next town used to stock "Kulmbacher" and every time I went through I'd stop & get one. They came in a brown bottle with one of those flip top porcelain lids like a Grolsch. It was a true German pilsner, best beer I ever drank. They stopped stocking them years ago, I quit drinking years ago (more or less). I still pick up one Newcastle Brown Ale at the grocery store every few months. Also enjoy an Alaskan Amber Ale every once in a while with a good grilled burger or something. Ever had an "Arrogant B*stard", lol? You can't not order a beer with a name like that when the waitress reads through the list

I love all those except for the Alaskan Amber. For some reason to me it seems a little off from a true amber. Next time I am on the mainland I will have to try it again because I love amber beers.

Favorite summer beer (now retired :( ): Terrapin Sunray. Terrapin also brews the "Hopsicutioner", my "go to" beer at the local pizzeria.

AH HA!

My type of post.

 

Stella man, plus radio 4( I am of course an intellectual ) for interesting stuff at cruise alt.

 

PS word of warning !!!

Special Brew!!!!

This particular beverage if partaken of rather to enthusiastically CAN lead to complete collapse of landing gear /mountain side close inspections/ much eating of mud,water ,cod and carp ,airport terminal buildings and towers can also be subject to visitations from wild eyed pilots singing 'OH for the wings of a dove' whilst waving there joysticks in the air (euphemism alert) and trying to land 747s at three hundred and eighty miles an hour with no flaps/gear ,fuel etc etc

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

 

Captain quaffer

or Andy as I am occasionally known

Hahahahaha!

 

Mix half special brew with half white diamond cider for a very interesting snakebite, a few of them and you will be flying.... Out the window!

I'd say it's just as well most of us can't afford full-motion simulators to fly in.. :Sick:

All set up for VFR EICK to EIDW later. I've also taken advice from @Raindance (and @ Shamrock727) and bought a sample of http://www.spitfirea...e/the-beer.aspx

Yessssss! That's one of the brews on tap at the Jolly Drayman, a British-syle pub in Bethel, Maine. It stands up well to the heartiest of meals.

Hmm. Vodka & coke? Only way to drink vodka is a generous helping in a big glass with lashings of ice and a twist of lemon. Rum's OK with coke though..

:drinks:

 

(Good thread, BTW)

Bingo! I'm more a beer drinker, but I've gotten really great at making an Old Fasioned... That's right, my weapon of choice is whiskey.
