OT: Whatcha Drinkin'?

[Bookman]

To be honest though, I generally never buy 4/6 packs anymore, so going to liquor stores is something I hardly do at this point. Casanova's is really the only one I go to because 1) I can get stuff there that isn't distributed to Minnesota and 2) I can fill a growler in addition to getting whatever bottled beer I came for. It helps that I'm fairly close to the MN/WI border too.

With the great offerings from many of the local craft brewers all around the metro, I just don't see the need to buy distributed beer much anymore. Especially if it isn't a particular, difficult to find, seasonal. I'd rather drink fresh beer on tap or/and bring a growler home with me.

I've also started dabbling in brewing from home as well. Nothing crazy yet, just going off of kits from Northern Brewer.

I agree - I have a bro that lives downtown, a couple blocks from Great Waters and Tin Whiskers, and with the 24 green line just opened, easy access to Town Hall, Surly in the near future, plus lots of new breweries along the way. Not to mention Muddy Pig, Happy Gnome, Stub n Herbs, and all the other fine watering holes within easy access. He never drinks at home, and neither would I given all the choices for fresh, fresh beer.

Check out Northbound Smokehouse too. I've probably said it a ton in here, but they're one of my favorite places going right now. (Right off of one of the stops on Hiawatha.) Especially since Town Hall isn't quite where they used to be yet due to shutting the brewery down for reno. Great beer and food there.

Depending on weather, we'll be cycling to Enki, Excelsior, and Steel Toe this weekend. It's a fun ride.

You guys are such alcoholics, we're gonna need a part II of this soon.

The only problem I have with alcohol is that I'm running low on vodka.

I have also developed a pretty serious drinking problem over the last few months.

Brooklyn East India Pale Ale. Balanced ale, not as hoppy or complicated as modern IPA's. Easy.

Also, a name suggestion for the next thread: Whatcha Dinkin' II - And Why?

If we use that thread title, I hope the typo stays.

Thats just the tiniest bit inappropriate

It's a thread about drinking and other alcoholic consumptions. It ought to be a tiny bit inappropriate.

Maybe we can just do "OT: Whatcha Drinkin'? 2: This is the 2nd Part"

Time to haul these tapped kegs away.
