How do you like your kegs?

[EstimatedProphet]

Variations on a theme...

[JimmyJazz]

1. Sorry, but I don't drink beer - I take my chardonnay on the

oakier side, if that is of any interest to you! :hi:

[EstimatedProphet]

3. Well, that counts as an "Other"

It's still kegged.
How you doin?

[JimmyJazz]

5. Aw Sweetie - I could not possibly be any better!

Thanks for asking. And you, how are your Big Day plans coming along with the Prophetess? Will she be in DC as well?

[EstimatedProphet]

6. She's coming in for the weekend

She has to teach classes all week unfortunately, so she can't get away until Friday-which is too bad, since this is the only chance we'll have to see each other in January.

[JimmyJazz]

9. So you will be there for the week?

I will send you some pm's closer to the event so we can make sure the we hook up as well as other DUers who are going! I know what hotel I am staying in, but that's the extent of my plans so far.

[EstimatedProphet]

11. I get in Wednesday afternoon

and I am open to suggestions as to where people are staying...
I don't want to rent a car, whichj restricts me to Metro, and restricts hotels to $120/night or more. I'd rather not pay that much. I'd see about staying with friends, but I don't think any of them live near Metro stops.

[JimmyJazz]

13. Damn. I know some of the hotels are forcing a 3 night ridiculous rate

minimum, but I know of someone who has some rooms. I think that's for anyone who wants to crash. You can ask me if you want for information. I don't think that would have to be on a Metro stop for you because someone will have a car and be able to help you. I'll send you a pm with my hotel information - I don't have it handy. I think it may be on a metro stop, but again, if not, I'll have transportation - and I'm pretty sure it was in your price range.

[EstimatedProphet]

15. Sounds reasonable to me

If nothing else I could get one of the downtown hotel packages for $10,000...:eyes:

2. Heineken

:toast: :beer:

[Renew Deal]

4. Bud Light or Yingling (sp)

[JimmyJazz]

8. Yuengling - but you were close!

:hi:

[48pan]

7. Make Mine a Smutty!

Smuttynose Portsmouth Lager is most excellent. (Local Portsmouth, NH brewery)

[Kellanved]

10. filled with beer

which begs the question: why didn't you list any? :shrug:


:P

[EstimatedProphet]

12. Is that a criticism on the brands?

If so, do you have a favorite brand?
Personally Sam Adams or Bass usually is what I favor. Also microbrews too.

[Kellanved]

14. well

neither Sam Adams, nor Bass are exactly what I'd consider beer. Bass (oww, the next morning) is a nice try, Sam Adams is not even that. (IMSO - In My Snobby Opinion)


Microbrews are a wide field; there certainly are excellent ones, but being microbrew doesn't automatically make a brew good. Same goes for imported: I know several(most actually) great European beers, which don't taste like they should stateside.

My vote goes to Jever; but there are several other good beers available in the US (there was one good Pils from Pennsylvania, but I don't remember the name).

[EstimatedProphet]

17. Well if I really had my druthers...

I'd have a keg of Lindeman's Kriek. But I don't have that kind of money...

[IowaGuy]

16. uuh...Cold?

[pscot]

18. Pilzner Urquell kegs are hard to come by

outside of Pilzen, Czech republic. Serious beer drinkers should consider a pilgrimage to the brewery.

[EstimatedProphet]

19. Suits me!

We should arrange a DU package trip!

[Kellanved]

21. don't bother

Since the takeover by SAB there is only one question left:
which one is the worst: Which brewery brews the worst "Urquell". They brew it all over the world now - not even the Czech brewed can be considered good any more.

[Sporadicus]

20. Does Red Stripe Come in Kegs?

If so, I'd like to try draining one singlehandedly :toast: :beer: :puke:

[TheCentepedeShoes]

22. No longer drink beer

so I'll substitute Hubby's answer: bottomless.

[Endangered Specie]

23. No Beer for me...

I prefer liqour... Vodka :)

Beer takes to long.
