The Bell's Christmas Ale this year is crap. If you haven't tried it yet, don't bother.

I forgot about New Belgium's 2 Below, though that's not really a Christmas beer. Bought a 12-pack last night.

Popeye, you and I have almost the exact same taste in beers. Pretty much everything you mention liking or disliking I agree w/ you on it.

That's kind of a shocker. I'm a huge fan of Bell's.

Yeah, I was surprised as well. It's highly carbonated and the finish kind of tastes like dirt. Just a bad beer.

How many did you have to drink to get drunk? What exactly was the experiment?

I drank 6 pretty quickly and felt nothing at all. Switched to wine. Much more effective.
