For real, if you’re slumming it with the beers - you have to go with the champagne of beers, Miller High Life

Yeah, this guy in my neighborhood, he and I used to drink to excess every weekend. We'd basically do two Miller Lites, one High Life. And repeated 3-4 times over with some Jager bombs in between. Smoke a pack of cigs in three hours. It was a mess.

Not sure if you said those two on purpose but those are the opposite of local.
Both are owned by InBev.

Elysian is from Seattle, WA
Bluepoint is from Patchogue, NY

They originated there.

I remember the Frapparound play, it got annoying

And that is why "It's never a bad play to get the puck on net Sam" is the worst line in all of sports

and both sold out to literally the evilest of beer companies.

Drank a pink sour made with raspberries, vanilla, and honey last Saturday. Corona with lime on Tuesday. A imperial pumpkin stout tomorrow. Just drink what you like.

When I was a teen, "Ice" beers were the thing we all wanted. Maximum alcohol content, minimum cost. Beast Ice, Natty Ice, etc. We were teens drinking to get drunk, it didn't matter.

Then you get to college and take a step up to thinks like Miller Lite, Coors Light, that stuff, where you could drink 15 in a night still. Someone invariably would roll up with some fancy shit and you'd drink three and be like, I'm done. They weren't good for beer pong or beer bongs or any of that.

Flash forward a couple of years, some people split off to "real" beer and a lot of us stuck with what we grew up with--cheap, light, domestic. And the beer snobs look down on you but those people can go f*** themselves. If I want to get plastered on the weekend I'm too damn old to drink 10 microbrews that add up to 2500 calories or whatever. I'd be 300 pounds if I did that.

I will stick to my Miller Lite and cigarettes (I actually quit a year and a half ago) and be happy and anyone that thinks I'm doing it wrong can get f***ed. Beer snobs are awful people, and if any one them are in this thread, yes I'm talking to you, too.

Good for you. f*** that fancy shit. Stick to Lite beer and clear alcohol and you’ll be good

I f*** with budlight. And vodka. That’s pretty much it for me lol

I mean, to each their own. I like brown liquor and Bud Light gives me vicious headaches.

On a serious note: When I travel to the US, I always try to drink something local. Bluepoint in NY, Elysian in Seattle etc.

When I am at a game, I will drink whatever it available, as long as it's not something "exotic". Miss me with all those specialty beers with "unique flavours". Pumpkin Spice IPA etc I will never ever try.

Yea but would you slug Coors Lite if you visited Colorado??

I tried Coors Banquet a few years ago. It's not terrible. At games the lite beers are easy to drink of course.

The Rangers got Blais, a second, future cap space and room for young players to grow for Buchnevich. The trade didn’t happen in a vacuum.

I think there would be more bitching that potentially two of Krav, Kakko and Laf are outside the top 6 than bitching over trading Buch. It was the right thing to do.

 

[JimmyG89]

Just get whatever the hell you like. I do fancy a nice Bluepoint at the beginning of the 3rd period of games I attend at MSG. It's a twist from the standard Heineken or Stella that I would have had the majority of the night, either pregaming or during the game.

Corona and Coors Light are the most frequented beers in NYC. Bud light doesn't do anything for me. Miller lite is high on my list of beers. Besides those, a nice Goose Island or a Guinness gets the job done. Guinness is very underrated since it is not carbonated, but a nitro, and it is smooth as can be.

Coors Banquet is a solid beer. Coors puts out a local beer in Colorado only called 'Colorado Native' which is very good.

I never understood the desire for anyone to tell anyone else what to eat/drink, or really tell anyone else what to do really. The glaring exception being when it directly effects me or my family.

In terms of drinks, I have found bourbon and scotch leave me with very little hangover the next day. I think it may be more due to the fact that when I drink beer, I RARELY drink water because I am so full in general already whereas with a liquor I often have a glass of water handy.

If someone wants to drink moonshine from their backyard, go for it. If someone want's to drink Pappy, go for it. It's all about what tastes good to you.

Could we please return to talking about the roster? I really could give two craps what beers you like or don't like

I don't remember the name of the bar but I went to a game on a Saturday with 7 of my friends and we found a place that had $2 PBRs. We were probably there for 3 hours, was trashed by the time the game started. At one point the game was super slow and a little boring then all of a sudden a random shot went in. I immediately jumped out of my seat to cheer and got extremely light headed and ended up falling on top of my friends creating a domino effect that knocked over like 6 people and spilled a lot of beers.

Last two times at MSG I went tequila then red wine the next lol.

Depending on how tonight's game goes, all this beer talk can come in handy for those who take pre season results too seriously so it is indirectly relevant.

 

[Blais to Win]

One day I realized I had been drinking pretty much every day since I was 15. Then I stopped.

It's f*cking awesome. You should try it.

There is a different vice that is becoming increasingly legally available that comes with no hangover, calories, or potential liver damage.

The calories are still a big problem the way I do it

 

[Raspewtin]

I prefer a cocktail of extra strength clorox with heightened stain removal and chocolate milk

I recommend diet soda. Helps satisfy the cravings in my case.

Plus anti inflammation benefits, mood stabilization and better quality of sleep.
