My beer snob brother in law has had me taste a number of "amazing" micro-brews and imports. I tend to agree with the sentiment that beer isn't good. I just think calling it "tasteless fermented bread slop" is an insult to tasteless fermented bread slop. Given the choice, I'd rather drink distilled vinegar, and that's saying something.
You poor lost soul, your life must be so dark and empty.



But seriously, I guess you're not a fan of anything bitter?

It would be if they hadn't invented coffee as well.

Irish Whiskey.
I just had some Redbreast the other day, and I really enjoyed it. Before that, I don't think I'd had an Irish whiskey aside from Bushmill's or Jameson.

Every beer I have tried, minus Guinness, taste the same in the end. Sure there might be that other extra flavor.
I'm OK with it. I stick to ciders, vodkas, rums, absinthe, and the few liqueurs I like. I hardly have an issue getting drunk :p

Not terribly so. There are bitter foods I don't dislike, but I can't say I like them.

If you eat or drink enough bitter stuff, you may find it slowly becomes your favorite.

Or, instead of acclimating my palate to the taste of ***, I could eat and drink things that taste good to start with. Which reminds me. I was going to see if that new hard cider they're advertising lately was at the grocery store when I stopped in for some vitamins, but I forgot.

It's been my experience that if it's got an advertising budget then chances are it's crap.

Being more pretentious than hipsters just makes you super-hipster. Super-Hipster.

I don't know what you do with beer but by the time I'm done with it, it has at least one more form to go through.

Mazra becomes one with the beer he drinks, one day he will turn into a godlike entity existing entirely of beer and he will spawn a new religion that quickly takes over the world.

Ah. Reminds me. The last batch we bottled should be drinkable this weekend. It's a delicious Red (ok, technically an Amber, whatever), with an infused coffee flavor. In the past, we've gone with a very mild coffee flavor, which works well, but is almost lost as the beer mellows. This time we went a bit stronger (hopefully not too much though). Went with a more bitter hop too. We'll see how it comes out.

Also working up a new creation. Could be great. Could be disastrous. It's our breakfast beer. Cinnamon Raisin Oatmeal Stout. We're seriously trying to make it taste like a cinnamon raisin bread. I'm thinking we fail miserably, but who knows. Making beer is fun and cheap. And you get beer! What could possibly go wrong?

Not a single drop of any beer you ever consumed is turned into pee. What happens when you consume beer is that your body realizes the superior quality of your beverage and decides to evacuate all other liquids from your body to make room for more beer.

More Maine Beer News: It's been illegal for bars and restaurants to display the alcohol content of beer. The craft-brewers organized and changed the very old law.

Apparently the brewers are aware that the beers they create are higher alcohol content then your standard bottle of PBR and wanted the consumer to be aware of that. STRONG BEER

For whatever reason our whacko governor refused to sign the thing - whatever. The 1937 law was repealed.
