  I’ve written a fair many food blog entries… curious as hell as to how I’d score?  Of course you are.  I scored 72/100 on the foodlist challenge.  I went out for tom yum the very next lunch… 73 now

  I’ve not written nearly as many beer related blogs- I scored a 50/100 on the beer list challenge.

  I will argue both lists are more of a portrait of a lifestyle choice versus true love of food….or beer.  for instances:  beer list; if I’ve purchased every beer at an average denver area “good” liquor store… I’d have this list in spades.  I’d bet everyone in cali/oregon washington/chicago/big towns wisconsin/pittsburg and dallas can manage about as well- a small town store in the middle of the rural areas would flunk this test.  food list challenge was fairer in that it covered stuff I can get each and every one but I’m in a state with a high instance of cash vegetable crops and an asian presence… thus I can work the wonder/hostess or rainbow whatever they got the asian mart or a thai joint and wake to paella for breakfast as this town has a superb latino presence too….  I’d bet you’d do as well in portland on   the food but god help you if you aren’t huge city back east usa…. the retort is such is meant to be FUN….. but you’ll seriously wonder if such is nothing more than which party school did you attend for college?…on someone else’s money.

  I’m also going to complain about the bullshit of too many crappy ipa’s ipa’s are ndia Pale Ale woo I know a term congratulate me.  nothing says bitter face like ipa.  I happen to have this thing for a sweet red… I know one person who’d laugh to read that  yes, the entendre too…  I’m 37.  I don’t consider it the height of sheek to switch from tomyknockers ifI’m caught to bemoaning the social digrace of shiners…. oh hahaha on beer names… tommyknockers makes a far beter brew as a ROOTBEER of the maple kind…  but let’s talk reds… I like ‘em with attitude..yeah back to beer talk… I like  not verymuch fat tire..new belgium brewery I beliee..I hate chicago legacy red

  … in fact outside of pabst brewing company and no pbr isn’t my thing but I do like carling black label now a pabst product for a short spell- not the miller molson coors carlings made with 100% Brittish grain…  Pabst brewing co. Chicago red can black label or botles or bottles shove it beer snobs scievtifically cans are more recyclable and keep your beer fresher longer but no beer snob gives a shit about science youl find…the most atheistic prick believes in the god of a glass bottle not taste.

   

  I’m fond of leinenkugel’s red lager, I remember a day in 92 when killian’s irish red used to actually taste good…then it went two row watered down which can happen with coors stuff lol.  Ilove lately a fresh case of sessions green lable beer…red ale…full sail brewing company bend oregon.  I’m so tempted to name the names of those fabulous redheaded lasses but  nah.  I liked the laurelwood free range red – portland area mini chain brewpub.

   

  next when discussing wimp water big company beers- pick a shade of yellow boring… bullshit I like flop and foam too thank you.  but lets cover this one:  take a coors light, a foster lager, and a sapporo  now tell me that you’ve  a range of that taste in upgrading hoppinesses…  now take a red strip jamaica man!..again it may have been but it’s canadian now…beware of that imported from part….a moosehead and a grolsch.  to me I can stand this sweeter lager tastes in beer but if you take it from grolsch into st pauli girl I’ll not likely finish a single bottle…nasty hate the sweet blonds…as in sugar crack kiddo sweet.  warsteiner.. yeah whatever…. it’s a weak excuse for german beer according to my german roommate once upon a time but he’d buy that versus the pisswater crap we bought…however he was excited about steel reserve -211- beer…which I think I’d buy over warsteiner too I also would buy the 211 over budweiser high gravity beer..yuck.    I’ve had an oak aged stout beer which required a sping of chocolate raspberry to be palatable…I have had some omg ipas…. to me that’s regrettable  about on par with…matilda beer from goose island brewery chicago nevermind skip mcnasty learn how to brew beer chicago! that’s two beer that are so nasty I will remember them forever.  gross island of spewery is more like it.  nowalaskan amber I cant remember if it wasany good.  thats the trouble with good alcohol really

   

  and no, that doesn’t apply to red heads.

   

  well, asside from the list not mentioning stella artois why not kokanee beer that’s purdy good ice cold beer…or the cheap 12 of ranier I had in the car driving the coast of the pacific ocean souther washinton state… I mean no, not the best beers but lets point out it’s a memory but- I will be happy the list covered old style – the left overs from colt 45 heh… but where are the old e folk  old english versus mickey or colt 45? maybe a king cobra… who remembers when icehouse tried to go national as a premium beer and like miller genuine draft fetches a bit more than icehouse…but I like the”warmer” taste of going from coors into miller beer but miller genuine rat piss in a can is still bad yuck first taste yuck.  and I like sapporo and especcially the distinctive steel cans of theirs yes, steel. not alluminum.  but I’ve rocked an asahi super dry! woo was that thee beer that day for driving around with the cooler stocked…yah like that was legal not.

   

  I can tell you proudlu the blue can of schlitz malt liuor was a night.  but do you see what I mean- 50 big company  eers oh just toss in a chimay 10 bomber beer?  yes! me beer afficianado now  tacate in a shady el paso pub with a syeah list corona for mexican beer sure… tacate too? my fav and I dislike coronas don’t serve me one corona is on par with st pauli girl but slightly more palattable.  but what about carta blanca or sol?   or if you’ll list a molson a miller, and a coors? jesus!  why not bitch about miller red being gone and how hard it is to find herman joseph’s private reserve and uh I’m thin on molson properties…  but why not go deeper- institute a go deep 3 only rule to impints…where possible..  why not natty ice goes head to head with old  milwaukee  have that  take on american beer- remember that dallas or pittsburg? white paper black letter just like old generic tinned vegetables….  and fosters? australian for beer…um oddly enough it’s not fully available there but it is here!.. the corps of engineers soul from nam era told me they sure did ship it there but budweiser trumped it.

  why not put in pyramid apricot ale  against a few less of the imports…or dog paws blueberry beer- it is golden  but explodes your mouth boom blueberry mmm …  or not samuel adams boston…bastan… anyways  what about…arrogant bastard ale?  I’m sure someone’s worthy…     I’m sure @godfatherofgreenbay can toss in some defuct classics too.  I am not pissed smithwicks harp and guinness made it but damn murphy irish stout is delightful   and boddingtons yeah whatabout the infinitely superior tetley not tea but ale… that’s wow as a lighter thirst quencher at 3.3 abv  and awwww what about those who say what’s the point to 3.2 or n/a beer?  um it’s palattable… a smirnof malt beverage? um beer… or what about a laziza which is a no alcohol malt beverage the raspberry is tastey- laziza… chicago didn’t fuck that one up.  odouls amber… that makes far better beer in roasts or beer bread than you’d ever begin to try a budweiser on….and yes they’re BEER  beer is beer before the booze within it.

   

   have you caught the joke yet?

   

  I did alright on the food one and bitch and moan I’m not in the beer club lol heheheheheheh pretty sad as I have more breweries close to me that gfob does  yes yes nevermind that wisconsin has more breweries per PERSON than colorado…we’ve more   but after the irish holiday of beers…. you need to try some meade…and a kickass tour of calvados….
