Sounds like she was maybe missing the “secret ingredient”.
Obviously you missed thread about the overwhelming number of McDonalds in Milan.
Samuel Jackson Beer
It’s the one that says “Bad Motherfucker” on it

The beer Ferret Herder was refering to, the Maudite, is produced by Unibroue, out of Quebec. I would heartlily recommend some of their other brews, especially the Eau Benite, or the Blackcurrent. It’s suprisingly good.

Did actually eat at a McD’s in the Mestre railway station. Only other option was a little shop with candy, chips, some funky sushi things in a small fridge and stale-looking bread. Had a Chicken Sandwich, but think they forgot the sauce. Used a lot of ketchup instead. Had a chicken-parm-ish taste. Hit the spot, regardless.
No real point to this comment. Hit reply and didn’t feel like wasting the time it took to load.
What? :dubious:
There was a stink here a year or two ago because a local microbrewery was trying to sell beer with “good beer - no shit” on the label.
The biggest problem I have with Sam Adams beers is that, although they are decent brews, they consistently miss the style they claim for their beers. Their Scotch Ale is too thin without the amount of maltiness it needs. The American Pale Ale seems Hop-phobic, the antithesis of what an APA should be. And the HefeWeisen has no discernable yeastiness. They aren’t bad beers, but they are not true to style.
The thing to do in that commercials situation is ask for a made up beer. “Ah, yes, may we have a round of Gekookte Luiers Stout? What? You don’t have it? Sigh…I guess I’ll just have a Guinness then.”
How do you feel about us men who wouldn’t touch the bacteria piss known as beer?
I’d say that proper beer does not in any way, shape, or form resemble piss, and that beer - like most alcohol types, coffee, etc. - is an acquired taste. I’d note that alcohol is a byproduct of yeast, not bacteria. And, I’d mention that I wouldn’t appreciate my brewing (or cooking, etc.) being compared to bodily waste.

If you drink it, Beatiful naked women will have sex on your lawn.
Of course alcohol is a product of yeast flatulence.
BTW…my Pumpkin Ale is smelling quite nice in the secondary…trade a pint for some of your witbier
The carbonation failed. I forgot to add the carbonating sugar initially, and an attempt to recarbonate didn’t work. What has worked is force-carbonating it in a Tap-A-Draft minikeg, but of course that’s not as handy as a bottle. (And no, you can’t have the minikeg.
)
I’ll have a pint of Badezimmerbrau.
With me, or with each other?
On second thought, doesn’t really matter, I guess.
Homebrew, I love you.
Why does everyone think the girl is Dutch? She sounded v. Russian to me…

Or do you mean homebrew as in the beer? Or both?
I did something similar: put in a date 100 years before my real date. I don’t understand:
(1) Why teenagers are not allowed to learn about beer. Not drink it – just learn about it.
(2) Why they think that a teenager won’t put in a fake date anyway.
Oh, and in some parts of the civilised world you are allowed to have a beer before you are 21 years old. The borders of the US are not the borders of the known universe (well, not for all of us).
The Newcastle Brown Ale site does the same thing- and Scottish and Newcastle is hardly an American brewery. I think the rationale here is that only Americans go to beer websites. The rest of the world knows enough to just drink the stuff.
My wild-ass guess is that there is some kind of regulation on avoiding advertising alcohol to teenagers. You know, how the cigarette companies get flak for using “cartoon characters” (Joe Camel) or other methods (like Kool’s promotion of cigarettes using hip-hop songs/giveaways/merchandise/etc.) that appeal to teens. Now we know there’s no foolproof way of keeping teens off websites, but at least this way the company can say they are definitely not using any kind of enticements on their homepage to intentionally lure in underage drinkers.
