I haven't felt the rice increase here, but I am find myself going for Old Milwaukee more and more often anyways. Unfortunately I also have resorted to Milwaukee's Best more than I used to.

Ah, Milwaukee's Beast - the only beer that tastes like the can it comes in

Seriously, how does a beer taste like Aluminum?

I was buying high life, till I realized pabst was almost 2 dollars cheaper around here. So PBR for me.

Currently coasting on a 24 oz can of Steel reserve, and approximately 12 beers... I've only got 3 left... but it's 5 a.m. so I think that's an o.k. time to call it quits, as much as I'd like to keep going.

I've actually had this. No wait, it was High Life and Sparks -- the malt liquor energy drink.

See, I was drinking a 40 of High Life and a hot girl just sort of reached for it and took a sip, and I was like "Ehh, whatever, she's hot. It's cool." So we were sharing. And then she was like "Ohh, let me show you something cool," and dumped a Sparks in there, and I was like "What the fuck? Why did I let this happen? Oh yeah ... she's hot." So I kept drinking.

It wasn't bad. I wouldn't do it independently, but it wasn't bad.

You would. And you have.
Still just figuring it all out. Still not really figuring it out.

I don't have anything of value to add to the thread, but I just thought that massivedrunk's picture demanded a caption.

The first thing I thought of was a commercial in which all of the city's car traffic is jammed up and someone needs to get a message through.

Who ya gonna call?

BIKE PATROL!

Starring...
massivedrunk as the badass bike messenger with a chip on his shoulder
with..(unnamed sidekick)

It's still in development, but I think we could make a pilot out of it.

Theres also a malt shortage. With the increased use of ethanol in gas as an alternative energy source, farmers are growing less barley and more corn for ethanol production. All malt based beverages will go up as well as poultry, pork and beef. The killer is that you get worse mileage on either 10% or 80% ethanol gas!

I prefer the "Flo-J", Drink the neck out of a 40 of O.E. and top off with OJ. Gets you to the land in short order.
