Favorite Alcoholic beverages

[Hatta]

Beer is awful, no matter what temperature, brand, flavor, etc.

Have you tried any good wheat beers? Generally they're very light on the hops, and all the yeast makes it taste a lot like bread. Alcohol really shouldn't be the major flavor of any beer.

Beer can be an acquired taste.

I personally love the taste of beer. Then again, I like that Malta stuff too.

It's like how you are supposed to use a little steak sauce to enhance the flavor of a steak and instead you just drink it straight from the bottle. Goes from being tasty to kind of gross.

You should never put "steak sauce" on a steak. No excuses. If you over cooked the steak or bought a bad cut, learn from it, don't try to hide it.

Well, as is the case when buying cheap beer, sometimes a better cut cannot be afforded. If I want the steak taste and don't have money, I get the cheap stuff that feels like cardboard when you eat it and add some steak sauce. No regrets here, sometimes a man needs meat.

I feel another intense thread change into pro- or anti- mayonnaise and arguments (friendly) over how to and how not to make a sandwich. These threads make me hungry. I should clarify that when I add steak sauce to my cheap-ass steaks it is in no way coated. lightly basted on at the most. I hate ketchup, but I find nothing wrong with a LITTLE cheese to go with fries.

It's all about tastes. Eating is supposed to be pleasurable for everyone, not a contest to see who eats things more properly than everyone else. Eat and drink what you want and add what you want.

PS: I don't mean that to sound offensive at all. I love talking about food and drink and I love finding out better ways to prepare and cook food and drink, but I try not to hold it against anyone else if they don't agree.

Oh hell yeah.

Leave any piece of meat marinating in the right stuff... it'll go down.

I honestly think that certain beers are no longer made the same and have lost their quality. There are also plenty that I can no longer find.

Anyone hear of Grizzly from Canada? Can't seem to find it anymore.

Yeah retroman, I also am a big fan of New Castle.

open beers are dangerous. I drank a beer a few nights ago that I thought was mine. Turned out to be my wife's warm leftovers that I had (only minutes before) placed a bottle cap I squished in half inside. I chugged it, got the cap stuck in my throat, and regurgitated it all over myself. Everyone was like "wtf?!"

Me too man.

And I also agree on the dangers of drinking open beers. In undergrad, I had a few friends who would piss in solo cups, and leave them next to kegs at frat parties. Sure enough, people would snatch them up, take a sip, and then puke.
It's very juvenile, but as they say, when in Rome...

The funny thing is, the stuff they were drinking was the same color, and most likely tasted worse...

Ah, kegs full of Natty Light. Nastiest stuff on Earth, but cheap enough to fill a swimming pool with.
