Bad luck America

There's another one:

It's like some kind of weird universal law, Irish like Guinness and Scandinavians like mead.

...and Aussies like sheep.
 
Yeah well NK has never been here so he is just relying on what he hears

Hey DarkJester ... yeah we do have some particularly good microbreweries here in CT


There are some great beer events happening the month of October across the US as well as UK... check them out!

I'm going to a few myself here in the area


I mentioned to Anth that I had my first Newcastle a couple weeks ago and I might have a few more in the future
 
Shiner a Texas beer that is moving out of the micro-brew catagory and is going more mass market, still only available in Texas but it is available all over Texas (not an easy feat).

I would catagorize this as a decent beer (shiner boch to be specific), not going out of my way to get it, but at the same time would not turn it down, plus they have awesome bocktoberfest every year (GodSmack and Pat Green on the same stage, figure that one out).

Personally i still prefer a more stout beer like Guiness, Modelo Negro, Murphy's Fat tire etc...
 
Course I've never been there, your teen pregnancy levels are still relativly low .

Alright, im ready to put my money where my mouth is. MAP Pisshead meet is offically on. We shall hold it in Australia, obviously, because beer tastes better in hot weather, and its already 36C here. We also brew EVERY beer here, including most of the European beers now, I was shocked to find out Becks and Stella were brewed here now!

The rules of this meeting.

1) No martial arts talk, unless its to challange a fellow member to drunken boxing or wrestling.
2) Minimum of 5 units per hour. Nursing beers is for the Germans.
3) No chick drinks. No coctails unless approved by the league of pissheads (which we shall now be known). Yagabombs are already approved, and we shall go for the world record.
4) Anyone travelling from overseas (most people) will require several bags to smuggle booze. Dont worry, you wont need clothes, you'll just take them off and start dancing when you get here anyway. Customs has cheap booze .
5)If you pass out, you WILL be drawn on, you will have your eyebrows shaved off, furniture will be elaboratly strewn around you, and you may wake up wearing an outfit that would make boy george blush.
6) Drinking competitions are mandatory. You MAY NOT back down from any challange, and there will be many. If you lose, your punishment is to drink more, if you win, you drink more.
7) If you throw up, you have to replace the booze you selfishly wasted, plus double to make sure your liver doesnt get sad not being able to process booze.
8) Kebabs and curry are the only food allowed past your lips. Eating anything "healthy" is punishable by death.
9) Beer bongs are your best friend, and you may be required to skull hard liquor through one.
10) Drunken orgies, or other naughtiness are encouraged.
11) Any pictures taken must be put on the site, lets show thoes other ma sites how its done .

Keep the list going people.
 
Bull. The only time to discuss martial arts is when you're suitably drunken. (Those of you who have criticized my posting style, take note.)



That ain't drinkin food.
 
Yeah anything with Curry has got to go. I vote for American fare.. Brisquet, Ribs, wings, drunken chicken.. BBQ peeps! Or do they not have that down in Aussie land?
 
By the way


I don't like Newcastle Brown Ale
I don't like Guiness



1) Just is filth to me
2) It's OK, I would drink it. But I see no reason when there is better stout out there (though sometimes I have no choice).
 
I'm going to take a stab and say you're talking about the mead. It is wonderful isn't it.
 
New in America!
Anheuser Busch has come out with a new product Spykes
A beer spykes is a flavor that you add to your beer, but it contains caffine, and other additives. It also is 12% alcohol in a very small bottle, something to give your beer a little kick. It comes in mango, lime, melon, and chocolate.

I tried these tonight (believe it or not after working out, one of the girls had a few in her gym bag) As a shot they're ok. And I suppose the lime would taste pretty good in an ice cold Corona and the chocolate in an Amber Bock but....
I'm thinking these kinds of beverages are generally for people who don’t like beer. But then there is another solution for people who don’t like beer.... don’t drink beer!

I don’t like Jنgermeister, but somehow I think I can refrain from pouring shots of “spicy mango” or “hot melon” into it. Instead, you see me ordering a vodka & tonic .... or BEER
 
Tried some at renaissance fair many years ago, loved it, but there was a strange side effect; after consuming many in a row I found I could no longer approach anything at a 90 degree angle, somehow all I could manage was a 45 degree angle. Must have been the inspiration for FMA.




There you go, a product that can turn a 'Bud' into something worth drinking. Adding caffine and more alcohol improves everything.
 
I get that same effect after much tequlia. And nothing, and I do mean NOTHING can inprove a bud. Well maybe the flushing action of a toilet will improve it.
 
Mead is a wonderful thing. Its the only time I'll drink throughout the day. Go to a LRP event, crack open a bottle of mead after breakfast and sip slowly at it during the day.
 
I guess you can come, though you already want me abit too much, stalking me like you do. Your insatiable desire for me, mixed with booze, would be rather scary.
 
Ewwwwwww! Only in america could they invent something to destroy beer! Though the lime shot in a corona sounds alright actually, that stuff tastes like water...

A woman that likes beer? Your after my heart arent you .
 
You are so wrong there.

There are few things which go as well with a beer as a nice hot curry. And a doner kebab is the perfect post-pub 'snack'. (For most people, it's the only time they can bring themselves to eat one! )
