Budweiser American Ale, what do you think ? Options

[Daftboy]

I was just wondering if anyone has tried this yet....yes I know it only came out today ( and yes its in my fridge) but I wanted to ask some beer drinkers out there what they thought.

[D-Man]

I will be purchasing this product when I get off of work then. Thank you for the heads up on a new beer to drink

I will let you know tomorrow.

[Daftboy]

No problem..

[DEATH]

Hey D-man - I'll split that 6er with you - bring some by the shop.

You can check out the new audio setup too tho I haven't had much time to tune it yet.

oOOHHhhh And what time are you're working till; sir? And are you owners going to be leaveing so that you can fcuk arround with me for a second, and see what's up with this crazy rattling noise of mines? Maybe drive it arround the block and hear it? (i wanna check something on my tire to, Do you got a jack?)

[Sinyk]

Let me know how it is compared to Canadian beer. oh wait... nm...

[Daftboy]

ok well I just had one....its actually pretty good...The lacing is not that grand nor does the head sit around to long....I do not know if any of you have had Victory Hop Devil...its very similar in taste to that except this is a little more carbonated.. its your avg. ale some lighter notes in it like caramel...with a dry hoppy after taste...not quite a IPA not quite a ale...either way I did enjoy it but wish it had a little more flavor...I would have it a little warmer then you are use too though since more aromas and flavors seemed to be more present then.

Damnit people, I'm here at work and dont get off till 17.00 and I WANT THIS BEER TOO!! Why cant one of you quit being greedy and E-Mail me one.

[supershannon77]

Daftboy have you not learned your lesson with drinking yet? Don't make me have to post more pics...hahaaha the party the other night was awesome but boy do I suck at beer pong...oo and u gotta see all the videos we made we are just to funny

[Random_Stranger]

Do you ever wonder if someone purchasing O'Douls gets carded?


I am not a fan of budweiser, but lately crazy beer is coming out. Chastise me if you like, but I love Hefewiezen! And I drink Coors Light...... I know, I know..... PLEASE THOUGH! Let us know how that $#!T taste with some comparisons.

[97lestyousay]

Do you ever wonder if someone purchasing O'Douls gets carded?

Yes they do. lol

I used to drink IPAs, pales, and ambers, IPAs beeing my favorite of the three.
I think the market for this type product is there, but if I was buying it I wouldn't be
buying budwiser, I would be buying redhook or deshutes. I think maybe they are about
15 years late with this, I don't see it taking off. Much like the select line.

[Daftboy]

97lestyousay you should try a company called green flash ....there in San Diego I think, there IPA is awesome

[D-Man]

I was unable to find this stuff at the stores yesterday So i just bough some budlight Mostly because of my partner-in-crime refuses to drink the original king of all beers Yeah, He's a puss like that

J/P

[97lestyousay]

I don't drink real beer anymore. I really don't miss it much, except when people tell me about
a great IPA. lol

[DEATH]

I went looking for this after D-man and I parted ways yesterday and nothing. Maybe budweiser has been have shipping issues do to the clean up IDK.

Yeah, Due to the hurricane and all, that Kroger didn't have shiskibidibble on the cooler selection. Beer was there; but in obviously assaulted quantities. I suppose because ya'll are just getting power over there. but alot of stores are barely opening. I'll check on my side of town tonight. (were we've HAD power )

[Daftboy]

There is also a AB factory like 45 minutes from my house...=/

[DEATH]

Ours was on the SE side of town. "Was" being the operative term

[D-Man]

yeah, w/o traffic, it WAS like 15 min drive down the freeway for me.

[Daftboy]

i can mail you one if you want lol..

Yeah that Select Line isn't doing too hot from what I see. Usually people round here only drink Coors, Amber, Budlight and Budweiser. I guess there are a few select dark beers that managed to gain favoritism from time to time, but those are the majority from what I see.


LOL That's funny as hell bout the O'Douls.

[D-Man]

Well, Odouls actualy has alchol in it. a freakin MINUTE amount, lol, but regardless.

http://www.Odouls.com

Read the bottom, says something about less than 5 percent.

.5%, big difference

normal beer is about 4% except in Utah I think its like 3% or something, most IPAs are around 6%.

[D-Man]

na, i believe bud-reg is 5 or 6%, with fancy-chick beers being at like 6-7% and then odouls at .5% So... mathmaticaly speaking... you'd have to drink 10-12 odouls to equil one beer...

To get drunk, you'd need about what? 15-20 reg beers? So that'd be... 150-200 Odouls? and i though i had to pee alot when drinking reg beer

WTF?! Not everyone drinks like you. Your liver is gonna look like some kinda nasty by the time you hit 30, kid.

[Sinyk]

Just drink when you are hungry. It will only take like 3-5

[DEATH]

He's not joking either. He finished 5 of the 6 pack I bought a few mod days ago in less than 30mins [And didn't even save me a second one LOL].

Beer has different percentages in different states. Texas has 6% I think and the nasty beer I drink in Ok on business has only 3.1% and gives me the only hangovers I've ever had from beer in my life.

[GriffGirl]

You guys oughtta come up here for beer. Aside from being like the microbrew capital of the world or something, I think our limits are pretty high when it comes to beer. I'm gonna have to look that up though. But we're definitely no okies.

Edit: After further research, it appears Oregon doesn't have an alcohol limit for beers.

The beer I drink the most is called "golden monkey" by Victory they are 9.5 % ;it is a golden belgium beer with some spices...it is tasty and a 6 pack does me in.

eithers does NJ...i have had beers that are 13 % or so

[D-Man]

He's not joking either. He finished 5 of the 6 pack I bought a few mod days ago in less than 30mins [And didn't even save me a second one LOL].

oh yeah... Sorry about that

EDIT: It's you're fault too. I ALWAYS buy us tall boys when it's my turn to pay, WTF were you thinking with those 12oz bottles? shez, I dont even buy those for my house... Unless its the 20 special for 13 bucks. You just cant beat that deal Well, not for budwiser anyway. Concerting i get the Lonestar 30 packs for 11.99

But you guys wouldn't like lonestar. It's HARDECORE Texan beer. I use it to strip paint and wetsand sometimes.

[DEATH]

Not to sound elitist or richy in any way but cans are FTL - that's why I always get the 12oz bottles
Nothing like a room temp Shiner in a bottle for me tho.
Daftboy - I must try some of this 13% beer - got any recommendations?

[D-Man]

You wern't complaining yesterday

Daftboy, Where do you purchase this golden monkey; and what is this beer with 13%?

Corona will always be my favorite. Salted and limed properly, there is nothing like it

[Daftboy]

The beer I drink is 9.5 that is the golden monkey. The one that is 13% is made by Flying Dog Brewery i can't remember what its called...double IPA or something like that. There are plenty of beers that are 10- 11 % you just have to look for it.

hmm, I might have to make a stop on my way back from the meet next month.

[D-Man]

Shannon; Mind your punctuation!! Daftboy, I want to drink whatever you were drinking in the pictures that Shannon showed me!!

Where can i purchase golden monkey? or is this a state-wide beer? like lonestar?

[Daftboy]

its made by a company in MD so im not sure if its out there or not....=/

[D-Man]

i'll just goto my local specs and buy a whole bunch of beers i've never heard of one day. That could be fun...

[supershannon77]

Haha normally I just added a bunch of ....... in between thoughts but sometimes my mind just goes and I rush and rush and rush...I would be much worse if I drank any of this beer you all are talking about...I will try to type so u can understand me better haha..I don't want you to miss anything important that I would have to say!

[D-Man]

And we wouldn't want to miss it.



So back to topic, Has anyone discovered this new Bud-Ale in their local shops?

[Daftboy]

AYe!

[97lestyousay]

If you ever get to southern OR, Bend to be xact stop by the deshutes brewing company
tasting room, Mirror Pond Pale Ale straight from the vat with hopps floating in it, I highly recommend.
But make sure you have a ride.

[GriffGirl]

I'm there!

And I'm with Death - cans FTL. Beer from cans is nasty.

If you want to try a beer with high alcohol content, if you guys have Cost Plus World Market, they have a really good selection of International beer, many of which has pretty high alcohol content. I'd start of with Spaten - it's a really good beer IMO. There's a few Belgian ales that are really good too, but I can't remember the names. (I was on this huge "beer spree" when I lived in NYC - you can find ANYTHING in NYC)

http://www.worldmarket.com order online!

[SeverX13]

i tried it. didnt like it to much. it was right there with jamcian red stripe (that stuff is nasty). personally i like corona with lime

[GriffGirl]

Red Stripe is awesome!

Hey it just occurred to me, we need to have the PNW meet at Dechutes in Bend LOL. Okay so like only 3 of us will be old enough to actually go in, but still...

Edit: Don't get me wrong - I LOVES me some Corona with a lime!
