Beer Snob Rant

[Froski]

Why PBR??? I just don't get it. Of all the shitty beers out there.... PBR? I can see drinking it if you're broke and it's on special or if it's product loyalty because you were raised on it but it's like a cultural phenomenon. I wouldn't use that piss to cook with. I like Warsteiner's motto - Life's too short to drink cheap beer

[Diana E]

I'll drink pbr because most joints don't sell meister brau..

so if you had 5 bucks on you, and you were in a bar that had $ PBR drafts you would buy 1 beer instead of getting 5 drafts?

I'd dig in his tip jar when his back was turned and never come back. Drink is for drunk, it's not a toy or a status symbol. The only thing better than cheap drink is free drink and I could give two shits about looking fancy. That's what you call pragmatism.

Life's too short to drink cheap beer

Life's too short for you to waste all your money at the bar...it can be the difference between spending 12 bucks to 40 bucks

edit: I would only understand what your saying if I only drank once a week... or less

[eddie shots]

i drink to get fucked up. so the cheaper the better. i do enjoy a fine beer with dinner or to cook with.

it's my money, I'll drink it up if I please..... I know the bars wouldn't carry it if it wasn't in demand. To translate the original post. There's alot of fashion victims drinking PBR

i've been living on PBR and High Life for a good couple of months now. them's the tastiest of the cheap brews.

[Gut Check]

I'll drink pbr because most joints don't sell meister brau..
HAHAHA. Nice, my old man is always talking about that stuff, is it actually still brewed? I think Meister Brau had the first lite beer, and I think it became Miller Lite, the greatest beer EVER.

[dbhobbs]

DB Hobbs is 6 bucks a 12 pack and pretty damn tasty to. PBR just gives me gas now. If i can't find the hobbs it's the high life. Or two Joose

[Froski]

I was into Genessee cream ale for awhile for cheap beer. 12packs of highlife bottles for $7 at Publix can't be beat. I usually drink Miller lite if I'm watching football and drinking all day.

i was on a genessee kick for a while there as well. some fairly tasty stuff too, but hard to come by around here....well, at my old place anyway. don't know the liquor stores around here just yet.

carling black label is not too shabby either.

I could go off for days naming styles and brands I enjoy, but I'm too damn tired. and Chimay is the true champagne of beers.

ok..i get what your saying...I mean, I dont dislike the taste of any cheap beer...but I would never go out of my way in saying that I paid for it because of the taste..

but yea anyways..i dont dislike any beer, but Pale Ale.........I fucking hate that shit..always have.....tastes like pine trees

[bat_girl]

I'm riding a beer high because I recently realized that the beer I fell deeply in love with in New York, Blue Moon, which is not available as Blue Moon in Canada, is actually sold here as Rickards White. Same beer, same great taste, different name.

i used to have a stash of that for folks over at my "poon palace" and a stash of some expensive craft brew for me when no one was around. i'm a jew you know. :tongue:

maybe that's why no one comes around anymore....:frown:


folks in richmond say pbr stands for peoples beer of richmond or something like that. i never have been able to really stand the stuff unless i was already getting hammered off something else, usually a yuengling.

when i was a kid, i'd go to my grandpa's and kick back a ballentine cream ale or 2 with him. then he stopped drinking.

I will be drinking the shit out of some yueling with my dad when I go home to PA for xmas. Cant get that shit down here. I can tear up some high life and bud lite but I have been on an abita kick lately. Its nice to drink the local brew.

Anyone remember Blatz? My god that shit is horrid my grandpa drank the shit out of that stuff.

[Froski]

The first guy who ordered a yuengling from me while I was bartending asked for a "lager." I put a bud in front of him and he says, "no, a yuengling" like I'm supposed to know this through osmosis. It was the first time I ever heard the name so I told him we don't serve Chinese beer here. Pennsylvania people live in a fucking bubble.

try iron city beer then. that should help you become a steelers fan.
mix it with vodka and it's called an "imp 'n'arn"

arn is how they say iron there. :tongue:

[richmond1779]

when i lived in richmond, there used to be a local brewery called main st. brew co. 2 skins worked there and could get us 2 free kegs each every weekend for us to party down to.

plus they did all these seasonal 6 pack beers that in the markets would cost 599 or more. go to the retail shop at the brewery and a 6 pack was 399.

the cool thing was, you could get the scottish ale one week and it would be awesome, the next week, it would be smoky as hell. that was the only drawback.

but knowing i was supporting a local skin and his family made it worth while.

then i became good friends with both brewmasters at richbrau. they make good beer there too. the golden lager, porter and espresso stout are excellent.

yuengling used to be great when it was union made, cheaper than bud, and not mass distributed. when i was living down the shore, i used to drink that shit all the time because it was cheap and exceptionally good. when i visited my parents (an hour north in north NJ) nobody had ever heard of it, let alone stocked it. once they started mass distribution, broke the union and jacked up the price, everything went to shit. it gives me insta-headache now and tastes like milwaukee's best...namely, terrible.

I really like it especially in Summer but don't bother with the lemon...
But drinking it from a proper glass usually helps for me...
In Germany its fine and I managed to get an original glass so I drink it at home as supermarkets now sell it and I found a little shop near me that sells obscure hefe...nice stuff..
Better out of bottles of course...

You tried the dunkle hefe....bit more bittery...?

[mikeyoi]

I love great beers,go to Toronado in SF,the bottled beer list is longer than the wine list in most high end restaurants.The tap lines are clean.At the same time I love PBR. It's a good "session" beer.I also tend to get it for free at a bar I help out at.It's like water but better.I just got back from SF and everywhere I went they gave me PBR.No complaints from me on vacation budget!

I like Warsteiner's motto - Life's too short to drink cheap beer

Haha that cracks me up. When we got back from Iraq on Sunday, my buddy's dad was waiting with 2 12 packs of pbr and a bottle of jack. It was the greatest beer of my life. Like a bunch of other people have already said, when you're drinking to get drunk, beer is fucking beer.

It's because they're fucking O-L-D.

Cotton tops drive slow no matter where they're from. I plan to drive EXTRA fast when I reach 65 to disprove that stereotype.

If some faggot bartender gave me guinness in water when I ordered a bud, id take every tip on the bar and leave.

I used to really hate PBR. Recently I've started drinking it and like it a lot more than Keystone. I also like Old Mil, but cant find it around here.

So, Mr. Threadstarter, what is it you like to drink? I'm a beer snob too, I just know when I'm drinking, and when I'm tasting.

I drank alot of Seahag IPA on saturday night. It was the first time I tried, it was good. Coopers Pale ale is good but I don't think it really tastes like a pale ale. I like Sierra Nevada.

The bartender was a sweet little Scottish lady named Tess and the costumer was a dipshit regarding the guinness with water thing.

As far as faggot bartenders go, if I order a drink and have to wait for some assclown to do his juggling act with the bottles before I get my drink, he'd get goofed on for it. I don't care if you can shoot fireballs from your ass, give me my fucking drink. TGIFridays does that shit.

I hardly consider Sierra Nevada or a canned IPA to equal beer snob but whatever. Never had Coopers.

I usually don't go to bars that often, since there is only two in my local area that would even be worth going to, and one is my place of employment. I usually don't like hanging out at my work on a day off, but when I'm there I get drinks for a $1. I'll pick up better beers than PBR when I'm there. If I'm I'm drinking anywhere else, I don't usually have the money to spend on high end beers, so buying a Black Label or a PBR will be the order of the day. Its cheap, refreshing, contains alcohol, and doesn't rot my gut like High Life or Bud (I always get the worst heart burn from them). If I'm going to a house party I'll usually get a six pack or twelve pack of better quality beer like Sam Adams or something from a local brewery to drink personally and share amongst friends. I'll also bring a case of the previously mentioned Black Label or PBR for the other party goers to mooch off of. I keep my home fridge stocked with some quality beer.

i used to love going to the richmond beer festival to sample brews that were locally made. if you can find it, there is a brewery in hampton called st. george. pretty good stuff.
