    I think this is the ultimate test of my sample slab collecting. Not only do I have to drink the beer, I have to purchase it also. I need everyones feedback on this. image

    BigE,

    Gmarguli could be the witness, and I don't see anything wrong with having pizza with the beer.

    I don't think I would want Gereg around. He would try to get me dunk and then take pictures or something.

    I would drink a beer for a sample slab. In fact, you owe me 6,890 slabs!!image

    My guess would be the "or something"

    You can only have sample beers if you want sample slabs. You get real slabs if you drink real beers. imageimage

    Yep, for a sample slab, an NA beer seems appropriate.image

    Hey, if it has to be "drink a beer" make it one of those Nude Beers, the cans have naked women on it. We can kill two birds with one beer!

    You pay for the beer, and I'll drink it for you. You can keep the sample slab!

    I would if it were me. I could think of worse things in life to drink. I would not drink the water in some places.

    Cameron,

    Beer is not the root of all evil, but if you wouldn't otherwise imbibe, then don't. If you want to drink a beer to win the sample slab, being 21 years old - you have that right. Whatever you decided to do, make it a choice you are comfortable with. Good luck!

    Beer is food...that's why the monks started brewing the stuff. Imbibing responsibly, it is truly a wonderful beverage. I personally am a big fan of beer....

    But if it doesn't appeal to you, then no sample slab is worth it...

    I'd rather have an Iron Mike's Hard Lemonaid.
    The President claims he didn't lie about taxes for those earning less then $250,000 a year with public mandated health insurance yet his own justice department has said they will use the right of the government to tax when the states appeals go to court.

    I used to be a member of this club . . . until I grew up already . . . for the second time!

    Can I have a sample slab anyway????

  • Conder101Conder101 Posts: 10,536 ✭
    Just how rare is this sample slab? It would have to be pretty darn rare for me to drink a beer for one. (I'd do it for a sample NGC 1.) Now for one of the lesser rare samples, a shot or two of straight 100 proof bourbon yes, a beer no. Wine is no problem but I would prefer a red over a white. (I'm the second heaviest drinker in the family and I haven't had anything since 1982.) I don't object to the alcohol, I object to the beer.

    O come drink beer with me
    I don't give a d---
    for any old man
    who won't drink beer with me...

    Take out the old gold goblet
    (a line I can't remember, how strange)
    and we'll all have another keg of beer
    Keg Of Beer

    'Cause it warnt for knowledge
    that we came to college
    but to get a little while we're
    (RF while we're) <never did know what RF meant>
    get a little while we're here

    so drink drink drink to (???)

    and the rest of the words are no longer in my head


    Hmmm college was a long time ago and I got to learn intelligent songs like this one...I don't even know what the tune was supposed to be (though I can hear it in my head).

    Just think you too can act stupid and sing stupid songs years later!

    Drink the beer if it's legal and you want it, don't drink the beer if you don't.

    If you have a moral stance against it, don't let some jerk browbeat you into doing something you don't want to do. I believe the old punchline is something like "we've established what you are, now we are just negotiating the price", so don't sell yourself for a material item. Unless of course you want to image

    Have him buy a Mexican beer called Nude Beer. Each bottle has a photo of a girl in a bikini. Oh, did I mention that you can scratch off the bikini?? The beer sucks but the bottle is great.
