Americans' Most Preferred Alcoholic Beverage is...
Quote | Reply
Beer, of course! :-)


From Gallup:



  • Four in 10 alcohol consumers say they most often drink beer
  • 30% prefer wine, while 26% opt for liquor
  • 62% of Americans drink alcohol, consistent with historical trend

D'Kid & I were watching the season premier of Game of Thrones, and I offered her a sip of my Ommegang Bend the Knee Ale [I got one with the Targaryen label



http://www.ommegang.com/got/bend_the_knee.php

She said "This doesn't taste like the beer I usually have"
"That's because your friends steal their dads' Coors Light, and not the good shit, like I get"

Where did you find that!!! I'd definitely give them a try. My local beer store started carrying Ommegang brews last year but I haven't seen these around.

If you ever get the chance to tour the Ommegang brewery do it. It's ride outside of Cooperstown NY. Go see the Baseball Hall Of Fame, make killer weekend out of it.

That seems like great news until I just saw that Bug Light is number and the top 20 is pure swill.

I bought this one for the premiere of Season Six [the first season I would watch anew from start to finish, after starting from zero and watching 50 episodes in 50 days]

http://forum.slowtwitch.com/...ost=5883892#p5883892



I kept saying to myself, 'Should I open it now? Nope. Not quite yet' and managed to save it until after the "Battle of the Bastards" ["Oh yeah! NOW!" POP!]

I realize you've sworn off politics ("allegedly"; much like Duffy periodically attempted to remind/reassure us what a liberal guy he really was after yet another rant straight out of the Steve Bannon playbook, yet I digress...) ~ but what to make of the 30% uptick in hard liquor consumption just since the last election...??? That's a pretty sharp bend in the trendline, no?
