And I also like good beer, I just am sometimes in the mood for a Coors Light.
Yeah, I too succumb to the coldest tasting beer on hot days filled with yard work. Really nothing better in that scenario. They go down like water. :bag:
sounds like you both can appreciate a good session beer.
You know, this has become my session beer of late. Actually actually true.
Are there rebuses on the underside of the bottle caps?

Had to Google that today too. Man, am I dumb.

Yeah, they contain symbols for Rock Paper and Scissors so you can play roshambo with your drinking buddies because, you know. who wants to effort with the actual hand signals when you're enjoying your session beer.

 
I understand economies of scale and all that, but this SmartPost stuff can be pretty stupid sometimes. I ordered something from a company based in NYC, but it turned out that one of their warehouses is about a mile from my house. But instead of it getting sent directly through the post office and getting here in a day, it was picked up by UPS, delivered to a central post office facility about 20 miles away, sat there for a couple of days, then was sent down to our local post office to be delivered 4 days after I ordered it.

4 days to go about 45 miles when I live 1 mile from where it shipped. SMH.
That's not SmartPost (FedEx) or SurePost (UPS).

Both of those postal injection shipment methods move packages through their networks and insert into the USPS system at the Post Office (DDU) level, not at the BMC or NDC hubs. I'm not aware of any offering where UPS and SmartPost picks it up and puts it in higher upstream as it defeats the whole purpose of leveraging the USPS' highly efficient and effective final mile while avoiding their horribly efficient and slow sortation network. The only time that typically happens is if there is some type of interruption in UPS' or FedEx's sortation network (weather, etc) that prevents them from moving it themselves.
Apparently it's Mail Innovations. Not sure how that's supposed to be the same/different as SurePost.
UPS Mail Innovations works in conjunction with the US Postal Service. UPS Mail Innovations picks up the package and hands it over to the US Postal Service to complete delivery. The package can be tracked on the UPS & USPS websites using the tracking number provided in this email.
And all I know is that the package traveled 4 days and 50 miles to go from a facility a mile away from my house to my doorstep.
<1 lb. Works on the assumption that it will be treated like regular mail which the USPS does okay through their sort centers. We wouldn't use it.

 
Wonder if I should do a beer ramp-up before derby weekend... I haven't been drinking too many beers lately, just the brown stuff (not poop). I feel like Homer and the boys will be pounding cold ones. Can I just come in cold turkey and hang?

That reminds me. I am, under no circumstances, allowed to have hard liquor during the weekend.

Seriously. It's for your own good.

To prep for derbz I've been ramping up for approximately twenty years.

There was a time during the underage drinking years where Lucky Lager was the go-to (cheapest) brew. Under every bottle cap.

Lucky had those, as did generic beer, which we referred to as Beer Beer.

:lmao: I remember one day going with a couple of my buddies to the Food 4 Less (or whatever) to buy beer. I remember that a 12 pack of Lucky was about .20 less than a 12 pack of Schaeffer (or whatever). I think it took me 3 minutes to explain to my buddies that the Schaeffer was a better deal because Lucky came in 11oz bottles and that we were really buying an 11 pack.

In the end I still think we got Lucky...because, you know, free puzzles.

Ballantine's quarts with the puzzle on the cap.

erego, I couldn't help notice I was caught in a speed trap.

Schmidt was my favorite cheap beer, it wasn't good, exactly, but it was less terrible than many others. And the artwork on the "Sport Packs" was a big bonus.

When I was 17 I thought that drinking Lowenbrau was about as good as it gets. :bag:

 
Stroh's and Stroh's Light here. Why? Because the pharmacy in Jackson sold 15-Packs of Stroh's for $5.99, which is what a crappy 12-pack of other cheap swill would retail for. Also, in a fraternity party full of cheap beer coming in the ghastly white can of Milwaukee's Best Light, it was nice to have a cobalt blue can stand apart. Was easy to identify the beer thieves that way. Lastly, I was about the only guy who could stomach it. :flex:

 
I get the feeling that there were a lot of things that GM did in college because he was the only one who could stomach it.

Miller Lite, known to some as Boggs, is readily available and shares none of the social stigmas of the top 5, ie. for single guys out there, you can drink this and won't scare off the ladies. Many bars carry it in bottle or draught form. Also the unofficial beer of the Jersey Shore. Whether or not that is a positive is up to you. Michelob Ultra (tied for #3) is an acceptable substitute, though harder to come by.

It was Strohs. Stacy Stroh, IIRC, went to a rival HS... had a party one night that reportedly had mountains of Strohs kegs.
