    my bachelor days were filled with Amstel Light, but as I get older and cheaper I now drink Miller light - a 30 pk. is comarable in price to the AL 12... still tastes like beer, and you can drink 10 before feeling a buzz..

    as a lifelong upstate NYer, I must also admit to a taste for the local swill - Genesee Light... Don't knock it until you've swam in the filthy Genesee river and seen what the stuff comes from..

    Guinness if it's cold out, some sort of ale like Sierra Nevada or Bass if it's warm.
    Guinness also makes an ale called Smithwycks that's the best I've ever had, but I haven't seen it outside of Ireland.
    Victoria Bitter is also very good, but again, it's not imported into the US. Pretty much a staple in the South Pacific.

    Bri- no squirrel reference on this thread? image

    Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's

    Smithwycks are great. I drink them when I go to Ireland. I dont know where you live Griffins, but they sell Smithwycks in a bunch of places near me.

    I would pick Guinness over anything if it was actually the Guinness you get in Ireland. The stuff they have in kegs over here is brewed in Africa and it definately doesnt travel well.

    I know I'm in the minority here, but I don't drink. I am 31 years old and I have never even tasted an alcoholic beverage. My parents raised me that way and I am very thankful for it. I am not trying to be a "holier than thou", but it is the truth. My wife has never tried alcohol either and we are raising our children to be the same way.

    Did you mean "Mormon" or "Moron"?

    No, I am a Baptist, and no, I don't think I'm a moron. image

    Hey man, if thats your choice and you are happy with it, more power to you. My father was born and raised in Ireland and never touched a drop.I remember years ago he didnt even have a sip of champagne at his and my mothers 30th aniversary toast.

    I, on the other hand like to think I am making up for all his lost time imageimageimageimageimageimageimage

    More power to you.

    I do not drink either.

    I drank your share, your wife's, my own and that of several other people before I decided it was time to stop many many years ago.

    Hey, it was there somebody had to drink it.

    Now I pass the time trying to get my wife drunk. It's not working very well. She drinks once or twice a year and two for ones are lost on her.

    No loss, she's a trooper either way and I'm still crazy as a sh!t house rat without the alcohol.

    Drink up gentleman! Someone has to pick up the extra that I left!

    when I drink (the three or four rare ocurrences during the year) it has to be Killian's Irish Red.
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12
