Talking For the Beer Drinkers

Thought this was pretty funny. Enjoy

CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE BEER DRINKER




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel shamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."
~ Jack Handy





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day. "
~Frank Sinatra
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~






"When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading."
~ Henny Youngman

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not."
~ Stephen Wright

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. Sooooo, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!"
~ Brian O'Rourke

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
~ Benjamin Franklin

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."
~ Dave Barry

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BEER: HELPING UGLY PEOPLE HAVE SEX SINCE 3000 B.C.!!!
~ "Unknown"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remember "I" before "E", except in Budweiser.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And saving the best for last, as explained by Cliff Clavin, of "Cheers". One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. Here's how it went:

"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

Yuengling!

As far as grocery stores, Kroger carries a few of the local micro brews here in Columbus. I usually try to stay away from that macrobrew crap.


Gotta love the oldest brewery in North America. Too bad now that I've moved to Ohio I can't drink my fav beer. I have to transport kegs back for my kegerator.

My favorite is Guiness....But since I don't want to pay the $ for it, I tend to stick to cheap beers. I like PBR, Natty Light, and Miller Light for the average day. I spend a little more for those "special" nights.

I like Pacifico out of Baja but only if it's from there. The stuff they sell in the state taste no where the same as the stuff you get across the border.

there is nothing wrong with PBR....It is cheap and gets the job done. I haven't found many beers that I don't like, except for Budweiser. Can't stomach it. The BEAST (Milwaukee's Best) is also another good, cheap beer, along with the Champagne of Beers: Miller High Life. Like I said before, it depends on the situation I'm in. I mostly stick to Lite.

My current Favorite is Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale. Great fresh hoppy nose, but at 6.8% ABV it’s a sipp’n bier!
But a local brewer, Stony Creek, has been on sale for a while at Merchant of Vino for $5.99. My wife loves their vanilla porter but I love their Red Ale. The red is big and malty with a strong hop signature.
