Cigars and Beer...whatcha like?

[Dr. No-No]

I've got to stay with the Rare Breed and 2 ice cubes.

I smoke a pipe and enjoy different blends.

I would have to agree with Black and Tan for beer. Although, an ice cold PBR on a hot summer day goes down great.

Regards,

Joe

I remember Moon's suggestion for some "fine" wines.....maybe he has a suggestion for some more "fine" beers and stogies?? :yes: :stupid:

 

[Big Dave]

I drink Lite Beer from Miller, not "Miller Lite." They haven't had good commercials since the pro athletes were pushing it.

Guinness is great. Haven't had any in a while.

Black and Tan is good too.

I smoke Kool Milds (just enough fiberglass for me). As far as cigars, Swisher Sweets are my first choice. If I smoke a pipe, Captian Black goes good.

I like Wild Turkey (double straight, no chaser). Bacardi 151 (same way) works too. I dedicate any shots over 100 proof.

Come on Dave the commercial with the two hot chicks arguing over less filling/tastes great then fighting half nekkid in the fountain is their best commercial yet!

 

[Big Dave]

You're right, THOR. I forgot about that one. Believe it or not, my TV is off most of the time (most of my collection is unrestored or three hours away). I think I only saw that spot once or twice.

At our company Christmas party, I did a variation of the old Lite beer ads. It went something like:

After a long day of installing heating equipment in M&I Homes, I like to take tme out for my favorite beer... Lite Beer from Miller. Lite has a third less calories than the regular beer, and it tastes great. That's important, because I can't afford to get filled up when I have to do a crawl space.

Lite Beer from Miller... Everything you always wanted in a beer (Crush can on head) ... and less.

My boss thinks I'm weird.

 

[THOR]

Sounds perfectly normal to me but I might have a warped sense of normal

For Mr. Natural...

BTW... Sorry I can't help with the CIGARS... I roll my own.

but you all knew that already... didn't ya. :

 

[Mr Natural]

ahhh.....Pabst Blue ribbon got my first buzz on that stuff. my dad used to love it and always kept a supply in the frig for watching the game on tv. Another favorite was the 3 rings........Ballentine Ale. Always good with pizza
Guess you never had the experience of Gennesee beers:beer: :drunk: :stupid: uke:

 

[Dr. No-No]

Moon, I didn't see any Hamms in your pic.

Big Dave, if you like Wild Turkey you would probably enjoy Rare Breed.

Regards,

Joe

 

[moondog]

Hamms... ah yes. After my dad stopped drinking, many years ago, he use to stock the old beer fridge with Hamms & Gobel for his old drinking buddys who would stop by. He'd always by the cheapest stuff he could find. I know some folks that had such a close relationship with Hamms that they use to call it their "Porkchops"... Hard core beer drinkers for sure.

Out of that list I posted I've been known to drink a few of each (many moons ago), but "Buckhorn" was my biggy. 12 packs for $2.99! Couldn't beat it. There was also "Olympia" which was a buck more a 12 (when I really wanted to celebrate.)

Some of my favorites these days are: Negra Modelo, Guinness, Gosser Dark, Sierra-Nevada Summerfest, Goose Island Hex Nut Brown & my most recent discovery "Allagash". That is when I can afford them.

First beer out of my parents sight was when I was 13, a Genny Cream Ale, that my friend Ken had been storing in a special spot in his attic.....too bad it was summer and the beer was hot uke:

Lots of Genny drinkers around here, IIRC it's made in Rochester. Personally can't stand the stuff. I drink Bud and Blue for the most part.

 

[grumpy]

When i drank beer it was Bud or Molson. Olympia is about the worse next to the only beer that taste like its name Blatz. Nasty stuff !uke:

 

[JoZmo]

Not a big beer drinker here. If I have more that 3 I start burping and farting. Haven't got drunk from beer in many years, I nod off first.
I do enjoy a beer after working in my yard on a hot summer day or with a good pizza.
Have a few favorites, nothing too exotic... Corona, Amstel, Sam Adams or Pete's. :drunk:

For cigars, if you want to call them cigars, Tiajuana Smalls, Cherry flavor.

 

[Dr. No-No]

Down South we had some cheap beers also: Jax, Pearl, and Dixie.

There used to be one called Hopin Gator. It was a lemon-lime beer and tasted awful.

Now I usually try something new to me when I buy beer. Tried some Blue Moon ( I think it was the name) and it wasn't bad.

I usually just stick to the hard stuff.

Regards,

Joe

 

[moondog]

Grumpy - Hi hear ya on the Blatz. The first beer I ever attempted to drink was a Blatz when I was 12 years old.

Puked that stinkin' dog right back up. uke:

Believe it or not... It took me 8 years before I even considered trying to drink another beer.

no joke.

Moon you struck me as a bong kinda guy! :

I hear you all on the Blatz a little store in the town where I grew up used to have it dirt cheap that's why we drank it, it works but uke:

Moon Allagash? is that from Maine?

 

[Lefty]

Well you guys are hard to top on beer stories, but the all time worst stuff ever made didn't even have a name. In the Air Forces you could drink beer at 18 on base but most only served this 3.2% **** in pitchers for 50 cents.

Damn it was nasty and gave me as much of a headache as a buzz.

And you can only imagine what the bathrooms smelled like after a night of 50 cent pictchers.

Any others in the armed forces remember ???

Thor - BONG? What's a BONG Better to go to Webster's Dictionary.

BONG: a simple water pipe consisting of a bottle or vertical tube partially filled with a liquid (as water or liqueur) and a smaller offset tube ending in a bowl.

My goodness... Those would probably be used for illegal substances. What kind of guy do you think I am anyway. Like I said, "I roll my own"

As for ALLAGASH. Yes it's brewed in Maine. A few weeks ago a friend brought over a 6 pack of their "White Beer" & I really liked it.

mOOn

BTW... In my day it was called a plain old simple "WATER PIPE"

 

[Dr. No-No]

Moon, I hear you on the waterpipe. Remember how cheap pot used to be everywhere?

It used to be a nickle bag, zig-zags, and Boone Farms Strawberry Wine. Talk about action from the chicks...

Joe
