Zamboni Man Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 MMMM Beer....drink up all the wine you want, just leaves more beer for me.
GoodBye Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 As I'm reading this post I am reminded of the song called "Alcohol" by Brad Paisley. Can't get it out of my head! Alcohol Brad Paisley (ASCAP) I can make anybody pretty I can make you believe any lie I can make you pick a fight With somebody twice your size I been known to cause a few break ups I been known to cause a few births I can make you new friends Or I can make you say bad words 1st Chorus And since the day I left Milwaukee Lynchburg and Bordeaux France Been making the bars lots of big money And helping white people dance I got you in trouble in high school But college, now that was a ball You had some of the best times You'll never remember with me Alcohol Alcohol I got blamed at your wedding reception For your best man's embarrassing speech And also for those Naked pictures of you at the beach I've influenced kings and world leaders I helped Hemmingway write like he did And I'll bet you a drink or two that I can make you Put that lampshade on your head 2nd Chorus 'Cause since the day I left Milwaukee Lynchburg and Bordeaux France Been making a fool out of folks just like you And helping white people dance I'm medicine and I am poison I can help you up or make you fall You had some of the best times You'll never remember with me Alcohol Alcohol Repeat 1st Chorus
SD Jarhead Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 yes you are 440884[/snapback] In other news... Surveys show the use of tampons is up in the US also...
SD Jarhead Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Well it is a better leg spreader than beer... 440825[/snapback] That just means that there's more fat and ugly women who won't get laid. You've never heard of wing goggles, have you?
Chilly Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 We suck like the French. 440741[/snapback] Wine has more alcohol then beer.
boomerjamhead Posted September 15, 2005 Author Posted September 15, 2005 Wine has more alcohol then beer. 441038[/snapback] 5 oz wine = 12 oz beer = shot (1 oz) 40 proof whiskey.
Pete Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 I love wine and beer. Why would you consider them mutually exclusive? I am a huge fan of Champagne too, not to mention single malt scotches, tequillas, cognacs
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 You haven't lived until you've had a glass of this: The best wine I've ever had the pelasure to drink...Dollar for Dollar.
KRC Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Wine has more alcohol then beer. 441038[/snapback] Well, you are not drinking the right beer. Here are my thoughts on the subject. You can match beer with food, just like you match wine. You get the right type of beer, served properly, and it will equal any properly matched wine served properly. The problem is that you have people drinking the crappier beers and they will not match up with wine. You cannot just pick up any beer and expect it to go well with the food. Take the time and effort to match the beer with the food, just like you match the wine with the food. Your appreciation of beer will increase DRAMATICALLY.
BillsFanNC Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Take the time and effort to match the beer with the food, just like you match the wine with the food. Your appreciation of beer will increase DRAMATICALLY. 441126[/snapback] Exactly. Here is a great article about appreciating craft beers with food. http://beeradvocate.com/news/stories_read/643/ What we need is a wake-up call to both brewers and restaurateurs. We need brewers and their distributors to put some real focus and actual effort on selling quality craft beer to fine dining establishments, and restaurateurs to simply just wake the hell up. This should be an easy task. It's a fact that because beer is so versatile, it pairs better with food than wine. There's more complexity in the range of a single beer style than there is for wine. Beer is also perfect for infusing with food, and, like wine, many beers can be cellared and sold as vintage. Pair this with proper presentation and glassware, and restaurateurs could have a lot of fun integrating the No. 1 alcoholic beverage in America into their menus.
Ramius Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Beer is great, and me personally i dont like wine...or what any of you would call wine...the only wine i will drink is the $3 bottle of arbor mist or risling, the cheap stuff
Puhonix Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Beer is great, and me personally i dont like wine...or what any of you would call wine...the only wine i will drink is the $3 bottle of arbor mist or risling, the cheap stuff 441202[/snapback] Check again dumbass... Reisling, the one you like... is not a cheap wine. Hey, you may have some tastes in finer foods after all!
Doza Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Maybe its because America beer sucks? While American wine can hold its own?
Pete Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 Maybe its because America beer sucks? While American wine can hold its own? 441230[/snapback] very true. I will further add Canadian beer sucks <duck>. That is unless you like skunky beers. Belgium, German, Czech beers- now those are some great beers!
todd Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 We suck like the French. 440741[/snapback] I don't know about that. If you call drinking the pisswater that passes as american beer manly, I might have to disagree. Bud? Pisswater. Coors? Pisswater. Genny? Pisswater. If that's what Americans drink, THEY are the pansies. If you want a manly beer, drink Guiness. There ain't nothing wrong with wine. Wine & martini's, baby. Good stuff.
