I just finished 1.1 fl. oz. of Ayinger, followed immediately thereafter by 1.8 fl. oz. of St. Pauli Girl!

What can I say, I’m a German at heart. 🙂 Oh, and I’m drunk now.

I am unable to attempt the ‘drinking beer while using the computer feat’ Because I have no beer, and stupid no sunday selling liquor laws prevent the acquisition of same. I have been considering partaking of a beer down at the bar, however I don’t believe the lovely Jenny will be working tonight, and the lovely Jenny is the only one who gives me free beer.

Now this is a discussion I can relate to. As it is Sunday, I’m not drinking today. But I’m on my 6th Coors Light. 😉

My wife has been promising me some good Martinis later. (Shaken, not stirred!)

Anyone (in the States) tried Steel Reserve yet?

I think its disgusting, but if you aren’t worried about flavor and the point is pure intoxication, it is rather effective…

This is really amazing, because I drink beer at home about once in a coon’s age. Tonight, I decided to have one after finishing making my chicken stock. I opened 'er up, and sat down at the computer to check the boards again. Here was this thread.

I like crappy light beer, so this is a Coors light sweating on the worksurface next to me.

“I’m working on my first Shiner Bock of the evening. I can never, never move away from Texas and be bereft of my Shiner Bock.”

Oh no, its a staple in New Mexico, well at least southern NM.

For me its

BUD BUD BUD BUD BUD…  
at least 12 today, well there was a race on and the day ended in a ‘y’

If I’m feeling rich, in winter petes wicked winter brew, in the summer blue moon belgian white ale, and any time something really hoppy like an IPA .

I apologize I’m going to Watkins Glen next weekend and I’m in training.

Argh! I actually had the equivalent of 1210 mL. the 1 “point” 1 fl. oz. was actually “1 pint, 1 fluid ounce” and so on.

I told you I was drunk! Luckily, I feel fine this morning.
