Beer with caffeine? How did nobody ever think of this before?

The beer equivilant of the Vodka & Red Bull? I have to try this when it comes out.

Drew Carey is your friend.

“Hey, this bottle of horse piss is actually giving me a buzz while it makes me drunk! And do I detect a subtle taste of rasberry?”
Bleech.

Redhook made a Double Black (see the sidebar)for a long, long time. I used it for late-night studying during college. Where’ve you been?

It’s been done, the brand is called SPARKS. It’s disgusting as hell.

Buzz Beer: Stay up and get drunk all over again!

People, people, I think we can trust the good people of Anheuser Busch to only issue quality products that will enhance our lives and our enjoyment of them.

Memories! Or I should say no memory of drinking that stuff at all! :wink:

Can they throw in enough additives to make it stop tasting like beer? Because then I’d be interested!

Obviously nowhere near a store that sells Double Black. :smiley:

Obviously. I’d expect someone named Lord Ashtar to sample something of that name immediately, should he discover it. It just sounds all dark and gloomy. Or maybe I’m thinking of Vader…

Would you mind explaining this? The individual words make sense but when you string them together in the manner you have, well, it’s almost as if – and I know this sounds crazy, so I’m just going to say it – you don’t, you know, like beer. That can’t be right, though.
[sub]I used to dislike the taste of beer, too. Someone offered me an ice cold Corona once and, fast-forward almost ten years later, now I can knock back a pint or two of the darkest stouts available this side of the pond without batting an eye.[/sub]

Now if they can just find a way to add some nicotine (and perhaps gunpowder) to it…

Get the ATF on the phone, STAT!

Eh - It’s like Mtn. Dew’s AMP plus 6% alcohol.

I was facing the necessity of mowing the yard relatively early in the day one Sat. I still hadn’t fully woken up yet, so to motivate myself and simultaneously reward myself with a buzz in advance I chugged one of these before going out.

Now, this day was 95º and blazing sun right at noon. After about half an hour I was shaking and having vision trouble. I had to go back in the cool house, lay down & guzzle a quart of water.

Which brings me to a question: won’t the addition of caffeine to alcohol just increase the likelihood of screaming hangover? Since it also dehydrates you, like alcohol?

They’re calling it"B to the E". Typed B[sup]E[/sup].

SOMEBODY needs to be bitch-slapped.

To the tick-tock, ya don’t stop!

Not that I’m a fan of any of the mass produced American type beers, but I think I must recommend this product to a local …uh… shop? that we have here.

The place that sells computers, firearms, coffee, beer, and food. It could be a geek goldmine.
