haha, I\'m there. don\'t i owe you one though??
hey leith, any news about BajaBash?
Alright Leith, I won\'t give you a hard time for this one, because you are a Newcastle fan. I do love the Good Guinny, but, the Sweet Newky Brown is my favorite beer. Always treats me right. That is, when it\'s not skunked. I have gotten more skunked Newcastle than any other type of beer.
Guinness is one of the worst stouts I\'ve ever had. It\'s not bad, I mean, on the good/bad spectrum it falls slightly on the "good" side, but it\'s the most overrated beer ever and it\'s a weak exampe of its style. Plus, the Guinness we get is brewed in Canada and only half as stong as the real stuff brewed in Ireland.
This is very true, it\'s MUCH better over there. No comparison really.
There was this beer that I tried in Ireland called Smithwick\'s... god, it was so delicious, what I wouldn\'t do to get my hands on a pint of that stuff! *sigh* I need to go back...
Dont get me wrong, I love my Guinness but I just cant drink it as often anymore. Im a huge New Castle binge asof the last few weeks, good
****, never used to like it and then I fell in love as quick. Guinness is too inconsistent, ya have to go to a bar who knows how to poor one, ala Tommy Sullivans in Branford (and if ya get the right bartender ya get yourself a nice little clover on top of the head). I\'ll still drink a guinness when I want one, but not as beer of choice for a night of drinking anymore.
And, I dont think Id buy a keg of it anymore after the price tag, heh. But then again I dont care that I took a hit that night, everyone had an awesome time.
damn guys, now i want some beer...
See Jocelyn not so lonely huh?
Matt I am going to hook up w/ Pat this weekend to go over Baja Bash
Guinness is good... New Castle is ok once in a while... Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is where it\'s at though....
AAHHHHHHH. You had to do it huh? If there was a beer I do not like more than guinness its that swill. I know it seems odd but i just never fell for the hippie trap of Sierra. I remember when that crap first hit the lots in the early \'90\'s. Everyone I know now loves it and I am convinced they are just blinded by habit. Oh man I hate that stuff. Sorry Marcial but if I buy u a beer it will be Newcastle.
No way Sierra is a great beer, nice and hoppy but not TOO bitter. Worst pale ale I\'ve ever had was the Red Hook IPA.. now that stuff is GROSS
now leith... if I were to buy you a beer, I would want to buy you whatever beer you wanted... see, that\'s southern hospitality...
truthfully though, if I\'m out to DRINK, I can\'t down heavy beers all night... I usually get a guinness or two, a sierra, and about 10 good ol\' Miller Lites... yep, that\'s right... yellowbeer...

Smithwick\'s is pretty common in NYC Irish bars. It\'s decent, definitely one of the smoothest beers I\'ve ever had. It\'s like silk...light in body and not the slightest bit bitter. A little kid could drink it.
