Nothing like a crackling cold IPA after mowing the front acreage on a hot summer's day.

As a New Yorker, I'm partial to Rheingold.

Not sure about the beer, but I am partial to their spokesmodel. ;o)

Beer's one thing, mass produced corn-meal laden swill is another. If it's a beer ping make sure it's for beer.

I'm innocent! But on the other hand there's Joe. He's my evil twin. Or am I the evil twin? I dunno.

But as soon as I read about Ballantine Ale my brain locked up and I fainted.

Oh that's good. I assure you, the majority of IPAs are legit!

My guess is there is you are both evil. But if you like Ballantine's IPA, you have at least one redeeming quality. ;o)

Indeed. Only had 1 IPA that wasn't the real thing in my experience.

I'm just tired of folks calling Mich Ultra "beer". There ought to be truth-in-labeling laws for that.

I'm a hop head thru and thru, so IPA's are in my wheelhouse. Though Stouts, bitters, pale ales, porters, and pilsners all have a safe place in my palette.

And light lager beers like Mich. Ultra come in handy only when you are thirsty and water is not available.

I tend to think of it as Alka-Seltzer with a bit of alcohol.

Then I've consumed scores of cases of Alka Seltzer in my yoot.

Believe it or not, Trader Joes brand of Hefe and IPA is very good and only $4.95 for a six pack.

Since my wife makes bi-weekly trips to TJ's, I will verify your theory.

Joe,, bring a straw, it's a free-for-all! :-)

(Pissant, you'd have twin heartattacks if I told you neither of us drinks anymore) [And the 'anyless either' jokes are disallowed, but beer maids are still wonderful :-)]
