Weird Al - Canadian Idiot

You mentioned Granville Island. I used to like some of their stuff, but they seem to have morphed into just another industrial brewery. Used to be you'd see the claim on their packaging - "all natural ingredients" - that's gone. Their "Prototap" series is gone. They did a fantastic "Wee Heavy" for Robbie Burns Day a couple of years ago - but lately they just shoot for the lowest common denominator, seems to me.

Another beaut that shows up in BC occasionally is Rogue (Oregon) Brewing's "Dead Guy Ale". For hopheads only. Bitter & grainy & clean.

Boozes and sex. Wonderful. Better than it turning ugly like DV.

Anyone tried Guinness? A taste like no other. I can only sip this can like two times before I turn green.

Sportsdude · Nov 27 06 01:36

LOL Turning green. Yeah Guinness is diffferent. I like Killians Irish Red better though. Guinness tastes different over here then in Ireland apparently. In Ireland its really good. Here so so, aquired taste.

Around 18,19 I just said F*ck it. I'm 18 years old in the rest of the world I can drink but of course not here. I drink for pleasure anyway, never been drunk tried a couple times to get totally wasted but I think its impossible I'm too big so it would take a lot and I've got a high tolerance level. Oh well who wants to get totally wasted anyway, I don't remotely find that cool whatsoever. Apparently throwing up is sexy I find it repulsive.

well ya gotta admit, it sounds like it's in the ballpark, so to speak ;-)

But what's this??! I turn my back for a minute and this turns into a booze and sex thread!!??

good show, that was my great hope for this thread.

Nice to see my name up there "Weird Al - Canadian Idiot" ...kind of gives me a warm glow. Although that might have been the jalapenos & shooters..

al equals SEXY STUFF. Nuff said.

Russ · Nov 27 06 02:51

I normally drink guiness for the first little while when I go out to a bar, well the first three anyhow. Its a meal in itself, you cant drink more than a few.

Other than that I drink 1516 or Sleeman Honey Brown normally for beer. And Crown Royal or Bacardi Gold for the spirits.

Although it does depend on what I have left in my cupboard.

Im actually waiting on some stuff I ordered out of the states to come in. Im making a kegorator out of an old fridge I have at home here. Ive got some stuff already, and Ive been looking around for the best (read cheap) places to get kegs of beer that I can keep the kegs for three-four weeks at a time.

Lise · Nov 27 06 03:06

Kegorator. Neat. A new word. Let us know how it works out, Russ.

Russ · Nov 27 06 03:12

I can say bad news already lol. will do Lise.
