I am totally replying to that add.

This is the best Dogfish Head brew. Hands down.
Better than Palo Santo Alto?

Left Hand Milk Stout. This is the second best beer I've had lately. Very, very delicious. A pretty drinkable stout, even for amateurs. Some creamy chocolate and coffee flavors.

Just had a couple of these today. I concur with your review. My reigning standard bearer for the brown ales is still Rogue's Hazlenut Nectar. but at $7 a bomber I'm trying to find a cheaper substitute.

Anyone know where I can get this in St. Louis? They don't sell this stuff in Connecticut and I'd like to grab some before I go back to school. I tried this stuff once and loved it. Kind of forgot about it until I read this thread.

Most on here will probably poo-poo this, but I've had several of the ones on this list and I enjoy them thoroughly.

Corona Lite is pretty good and very close to the original, and Bud Select(sorry Jim) is one of my go-tos when I can't decide on anything else.

I once heard that beer doesn't get you drunk it's when you're drunk and eat all that late night greasy fat food.

Beer has calories, thus the number of beers you consume does count toward making you fat if you drink enough of it and often enough. The greasy food makes it worse, sure, but the beer counts too. Even if it is low-carb; calories are calories. Liquor's got 'em too.
