Used to own a small tavern in Seattle in the’80s. PBR on tap. I had a Saturday night last call special - a six-pack of Hamm’s 16 oz. to go for $4.00.
I’m not snooty. I mostly stick to Beck’s or Heineken. Don’t care for wheat brews. Wheat belongs in bread and breakfast cereal.
Murphy’s Stout is a worthy foe for Guinness but not so easy to find. I kept a small stash for one customer who really liked it. Not a big seller, though.
Yeah, when I looked it up, I was surprised to find that it’s really not popular anywhere outside of the town where it’s made, and even there, Guinness still outsells it 3-1. But it happens that my local grocery store always has four-packs of tall boys in stock for a good price, so it’s the only beer that I ever have in my fridge.
Agreed! I always liked Guiness on tap, or Murphys from a can.
Smithwicks (prounced 'Smeddick's') beats both of them, though, hands down. :-)
