And thou shalt love the red wine with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy beer as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
As a rule I would agree to that, but there are times in the summer when I will buy a sixer of Busch or some other “heavy on the corn as an adjuct” beer just for the memories of days gone by.

I can’t accept that one. We have lots of wine tasting events here in CA where “keeping the glass” is the norm. Gotta taste the wine, man. *Gotta *taste the wine!
How about: Leavest not thy guests’ glass empty. (And don’t forget thine own, either!)
Yeah, that one kinda stuck with me, too. I looked at the shelves. All but three of our wineglasses came from tasting rooms somewhere, as did just about every glass in the cabinet. And what about the “walkaround” margaritas in Vegas?

Does that work?

It depends on what you mean by work. You will access the wine, but it will taste like cork. Hence the earlier rule to keep a corkscrew with you.
Regular bars serve shots in small, shallow shot glasses
Good bars serve shots in regular old shot glasses.
Great bars serve shots in rocks glasses
Excellent bars serve shots in rocks glasses with a free beer back.
Any bar that allows you to throw peanut shells on the floor is automatically upgraded one level. In the instance that a bar that already rates as excellent does so, you should consider moving in to the stock room.
Thou shalt not imbibe any liquid of a color commonly found on jockey’s silks.

I guess white russians are right out then. Well I’ll be damned.
I guess long island ice teas are out too? Total BS already
Fair enough
yeah well, my staple is “light rum”, as in Bacardi light, so I guess I fail there… and/or the writer of this list is totally clueless. I vote for the latter. Watch him drink Myers dark rum and coke all night. NOT.
There is no corn in any real beer. Real beer drinkers call that swine “BMC” which stands for “BudMillerCoors”. BMC includes all cheap replacements for real beer. (Heinekin, Corona, Becks, Michelob, etc) Actually some of us call that “Lawnmower beer”, which I guess excuses some of you, if you really know what you want/need and choose it because you’re out in the sun and need the WATER. Anybody herein excused should know what IPA stands for, and prefer it or another real beer after the sun sets.

Don’t you hate it when you come into a thread with an awesome link all ready to go, and the first freaking response has beaten you to it?
