......is really good.

That is all.

Sorry Fuzz, but in my opinion, it is the most overrated beer out there. 

hater.

 ;)

I haven't seen it locally for a long time. Picked up a couple bottles last night. I guess I don't follow what's rated highly or not but I think it's o.k. Not the best but o.k.

It is not a bad beer, and when we had the pub it was our best selling micro, I just never thought it deserved the hype it has gotten as it really is not that great IMHO.  It must have something going for it though since it does sell well.

I've never cared for it either, but then I live in one of the mecca's of microbrews...

Good beer, but ya...... overrated.

I still really like Pete's Wicked, but its harder to find around here than it used to be ever since my local supermarket stopped carrying it.  Hmmmm, perhaps I'll make the trip tonight to get some though  ;)

I'm a fan, but there are better out there. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Moose Drool, Alaskan Amber, and Stone IPA are among them. I'm also a big fan of Anchor Steam, but a very different style of beer.

bravo.

Coincidentally, after I finished my Fat Tire I had two Sierra Nevada's.  8)

I also give a thumb's up to the Moose Drool, although I haven't had one in a while.

This is just hitting big here.  I saw one dude asking for it a few weeks ago.  They just got it in now.  I haven't tried one yet.

We'll see.

It's no Michelob or anything.

 ;D  I know.  I'm thinking of branching out.  You know, get cultureized.     and stuff.

I'll start with overpriced nasty status beer, and move to like lemon juice finger bowls at dinner.

Small steps.

Yah, no PBR either.

Harumph.

I'll have you know PBR won some sort of award 120 years ago, hence the "Blue Ribbon." Besides, you get a 12 pack for like $1.95 or something. When I'm smuggling cheap beer that tastes equally bad ice cold or lukewarm onto the golf course, it's got to be PBR.

It's actually the last quasi regional company making pisswater American Lager that hasn't been swallowed up by Coors/AB/Miller, which is worth supporting by itself.

There used to (PacNW here): Oly, Rainier, (now made in Los Anhelies of all places) Lucky, Hamms, Blitz, the list used to go on.

And they support NPR, so as a filthy lib, I can feel good about drinking it.

That stirs up memories. Several years ago, I spent a long snowboarding trip in Driggs, Idaho, riding at Targhee during the day, pounding 11oz Olympia stubbies/hand grenades at night. Great snow, fantastic terrain, terrible town, awful, awful beer. Good times.

Pounding stubbies?

Never mind, I'm better off not knowing.

Pounding stubbies, jumping on hand grenades... sometimes you take one for the team. What did you call it?

I'm also reminded that PBR is featured prominently in two American cinematic masterpieces: Blue Velvet and Midnight Madness.

I get it now.  It's like going home with Nina Picciso, yes?

'zacktly. I think.

I've noticed the same thing with Pete's.  I used to drink Pete's Wicked Ale all the time in the mid 90s.  Then for a long time I couldn't find in anywhere, but just started seeing it again in one of the local grocery stores in the past year. [sm_thumbsup2]

A few years back when I was actively seeking my pilots license, I used to fly with a friend into Driggs about once a week.  I never could figure out the allure of it, and it got to where I could fly there and back blindfolded.  It turns out, my friend was buying dope from an employee of the cafe there and I was an unsuspecting mule.

Kinda on topic, when I lived in CA I used mow this old guys "back forty" as he called it...a huge fricken yard that must have had a slope of 88 degrees.  The pay sucked, but he always had a fridge stocked with Oly 6 oz. shorties.  He was usually loaded up on Old Crow, so he never missed the all the beer me and my brother filtered out of there.
