This is a sad...sad...day.

Oh, and I'm 26 today...This day sucks.

Aside from the fact that you're a fossil, this needs more explanation (for me anyway).

[M'k'n'zy]

We are both from St. Louis so mabye that makes this a bigger deal to us as St. Louis has always been the home of Anheisher-Busch. Its sad to see a great American company be bought out by a foreign company.

[bovine]

is that the company that makes the world-famously bad budweiser beer?

[Shellie]

Happy belated Birthday

[Zeus]

Happy b-day

Who the hell's In-Bev?

EDIT: Ah, they're Interbrew, the same company that owns Labatt's

That sucks for you guys who like Bud. Labatt as a brand is pretty stagnant up here. It's difficult to market your beer to the market if you have no idea what the market is

If it tastes like piss, it's probably beer.

You know, you don't have to register your dislike of something just because the topic came up.

My bet is that you were the victim of a College prank.

I wasn't, ever, but I can definitely say it: beer tastes like shit. And I've tried about 25 different kinds of them, including lagers, ales, and stouts. It may as well be fermented urine to me.

Not everyone who hates beer has done so for reasons other than poor taste. I've heard so many people say "you learn to like it". What should I "learn" to like it, it tastes horrible? Shit has nutrients in it, should you learn to get used to it 'cause it's good for you?

Same story here. I really try to like it, but I just can't. The best beers I've tried are the ones that hide the hops flavor as much as possible. But, that kinda defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

[Julius Seeker]

Well do you guys at least like wine, whiskey, or rum?

[SineSwiper]

Yes. My typical bar drink of choice is a Dr. Pepper and Jack. If I'm actually drinking, then just about anything: orange juice and rum, Yager bomb, tequila (really like tequila). Corzo is a good brand.

Jager bomb involves beer...

[SineSwiper]

Ummm...what? It's Jagermeister and Red Bull. Beer doesn't enter the equation. I make them at home during parties.

Its a shot of Jager dropped in beer and then pounded, around these parts.

All bombs, like an Irish car bomb, are shots of something dropped in a beer, i thought.

Rum, yes. The others? Not so much

Why call it a bomb? The whole point is that you get that speed rush along with the alcohol buzz. Wiki says it's Red Bull (or some other energy drink).

Actually, a Irish Car Bomb is stout, Irish whisky, and Irish cream.

I guess its changed with the popularity of Red Bull over the years, Jager makes me cringe just thinking about it!

Why a bomb? When you drop the shot in the glass it splashes like a bomb i guess. The local place i like makes ICB's with Guiness and Baileys/Jaimeson. Again, dropped in and pounded. Its pretty good.

[Lox]

Well, Guiness is stout. That's how I've always seen an ICB made. I have yet to do one, but I've been dying to try it. Maybe this August when I head to the OBX for vacation.

[Blotus]

A Jagerbomb has never been Jager and beer.

i guess my school was redneck i stand corrected, worry not.
