Gonna have to check out how to make beer sounds kinda fun and I might get lucky and make something that tastes good.
Stop in for a drink.

I was tempted to confirm with carefully cropped photographic evidence of the appropriateness of this statement …. but we shan't go there.However the trade-in may be an upgrade.... He may wanna keep the new one...
Tito's Margaritas are on the menu for this Friday night. And maybe a Taco or 3 before the nights movie. 1969 Easy Rider. Fonda, Hopper, ("oh ive got a helmet!)Nicolson….and a nicely crafted soundtrack.

Tito's Margaritas! Now that sounds like a good idea. I sure do like Tito's and tonic. It's pretty purs stuff. They are now producing their own I believe. They started with Ehanol plant alcohol and running it through a 6 plate column still. No wonder why it was so smooth. LOL

I thought it would be out of my price range but not. Thanks Toolman.
You start with a kit that get's you the brew barell and starter ingredients. If the kit doesn't have bottles and caps you need some. That's about it to start. The LME (liquid malt extract) water and yeast is all you need to start. The LME and yeast are in the kit. After your first batch all you need is a refill and they have lots. I have made a half dozen different kinds and all have been good.

I'll order a kit and see how I do.
I looked at the time zone map. It's 5:00 somewhere. Besides, it's Saturday. Hey I need to finish my whiskey and switch to beer. It's International Beer Day today!

Well damn! I’m at work and they frown upon beer breaks.
. But I did have one after midnight, so technically that was today...

Cheers Dave. One of my favorite flavors!

Trying to enjoy the weekend and forget about next week at work. I have to travel during the first part of the week. 4 flights in 3 days with two nights in hotels.
I really hate business travel.

Looks like fun.

Yep. It’s a nice lager and my favorite. Easy drinking, not heavy.

The Firestone moniker comes from a winery that branched out into brewing.
Same Firestone as the tire empire.
He was also our Congressman for one term if I remember correctly.
Sounds like my kinda stuff

Very smooth. Last time I had one they didn't change the recipe that I could tell. Unlike Coors Light. Not the same as it was when Adolph and family brewed it. I sure like my home brew. Fun to make, the anticipation is exciting, and the kudo's from friends is the icing on the cake.
Love me some Yuengling. I bring a case home whenever I can. Octoberfest, I just bottled 4 gallons of home brew. Already planning on some fun winter holiday beers. The barrel aged beers are all the rage and are a lot of fun.

Coors Banquet still gets consumed here on occasion. As a youth it was pretty much my favorite. When I was 20 and joined the Operating Engineers Union I was told in no uncertain terms that Coors was not acceptable in the presence of other Engineers due to it's non-union status 
There was that one issue with what I think was a bottle that had spoiled I drank, 15 minutes later on the way down the mountains it was a projectile exit. Avoided Coors for long time after that.

Boulevard is some good stuff. Back when I used to travel to KC regularly for business I always made sure to get whatever was seasonal to try. Their seasonal chocolate ale is amazing and it sells out fast.
I am looking at some seasonal chocolate orange stout for the holidays.
