Yeah you are. You just don't know it. We are everywhere.

Too bad you can't deduct mojitos. Thank you Bruce Campbell. The Veranda Lounge in St, Clooud makes a good one.

Surprisingly (VERY surprisingly) the TGIFriday's in Maple Grove makes a decent one. Santorini's in Eden Prairie makes an excellent one, and I think it's Brit's that makes the best one I've ever had.

The worst I've had was was Hoolihan's in Maple Grove. Horrible.

Ok, the Two Brothers Monarch White beer is pretty tasty.

Very similar to Hoegaarden, but with a better finish.

Hey, Brent... did you get the picture I tried to send you from the grocery store? Baltika for $2.99.

I did, and I chuckled. Then I shed a tear because I miss you.

We may be miles apart, but we still have our love of Gophers and beer making that bridge between us.

Awww... I miss you, too.

Maybe next time I'm back a bunch of us can get together. The last few times have been crazy busy with stuff.

Of course, there's always Houghton.

Meijer's Sh*tty Acres?

Also, am I going crazy or have they been brewing the No. 9 less sweet lately?

I like the Meijer. To me, Meijer is like Cub and Kroger is like Rainbow.

Haven't found a Byerly's equivalent, yet.

We passed on the Baltika this evening, though. Picked up the Oberon little keg instead.

You passes on a good decision. Baltika is amazing tonight.

I liked it after they remodeled it, but the store so huge that it's occasionally difficult to find something that should be relatively easy to find.

I have switched to generic beer so I can save the last 2 bottles for when company comes over tomorrow. Sorry for the drunk, drukn post delay.

I generally just go for groceries. If I need things from the other side of the store, I go to Target.

Oberon is some darn good stuff too though. In fact, Bell's makes some very good beer to begin with - I had a couple bottles of their Porter left in the fridge, and those were nice and tasty.

But, avoid their wheat beers at all costs, save Oberon. Trust me (and Twitch.)

...generic beer?

Re: Official Drinking Thread Pt 5: Four Horsemen + Jerry: It's called The Voltron!

Oberon is good, haven't had any of the Bell's others.

Generic beer = macros like Bud, Miller, etc.

Miller Lite. I bought it yesterday to add to my stash. I ran out of New Glarus earlier in the week and I only have 2 bottles of Baltika left.

Oberon's OK. Not great, but OK. Too many people from Michigan around my age genuflect to it like it's the greatest beer ever. It's not even close to being the best beer Bell's makes; the aforementioned porter kicks its ass.

Any cheap beer you switch to after your taste buds are numb.

It definitely isn't - that title belongs to Expedition Stout. Oberon's definitely good though, and worth buying a sixer for a solid summer beer.

You had a mojito at Houlihan's? This raises so many questions. Like who did you get to watch your many cats? And how was the Sex and the City 2 movie? And when was the last time you shaved your vagina? And so forth.

Comparing Meijier to Cub is an insult to Meijer.

I always think Oberon is overrated until I drink one, and then I remember how good it actually is. It's pretty much the best beer to drink on a warm summer day.

I met up with some friends (male and female) who live near there. I did that once. And obviously made a mistake. I will not ever go back there.
