sounds like the dream man....you guys are lucky over there though, in the uk craft beers don't often come in packs so unless you are getting a deal like the one you mentioned before it can be outrageously expensive. i'm afraid tonights drinking is nowhere near as interesting as yours...i have a fresh bottle of beam black which is nice...beer wise though i have nothing but budweiser. it was free though which is a plus...the guy who gave me them also offered me a free budweiser festive jumper...i would have taken it but it had "drink responsibly" in huge letters on it....i play for the other team mate.scream ale wrote: ↑Sun Dec 30, 2018 12:48 pmThey are pretty fun to make and and an awesome way to try different brews. Especially awesome when something in the cooler primarily comes in $20 four packs and I just don't wanna cough up the bucks for the chance to try something that I really might not like. Even more awesome still - when I've tried one of those beers from the super pricey four packs and I go back to make another mixed sixer and some kind and wonderful (or possibly just careless) employee has stocked the cooler with five or sometimes more of that very pricey delicious beer that I can now get more than four of for nearly half the price of that four pack. Fuck yeah.benitobeast69 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 30, 2018 12:32 pmI love the whole make your own six pack thing. they have it at my local store and I think if you buy 6 bottles (or multiples of 6) you get 25% off. basically makes up for the huge mark up on single bottles over packs and means you can try a load of different brews. kinda makes me feel like i'm on a little solo bar crawl at home.scream ale wrote: ↑Sun Dec 30, 2018 11:51 amWorking my way through a sixer I made at the supermarket of various beers in the cooler. Currently swilling a 'Peace Bomber', ale made with Riesling juice, from the (usually) fine people at War Horse. This one is a miss and a half, for me at least. Really not liking it. This strange citrusy after taste and flat beer thing it has going on kinda...sucks? I've definitely had worse though. Also in that sixer: 'Meat & Potatoes' dinner stout from Lord Hobo(pretty tasty), 'Pennsylvania Tuxedo' from Dogfish Head(not bad, not bad) and three 'Breakfast with Churchill' an oatmeal coffee stout also from War Horse(the only one in the bunch I've had previously, looking forward to these).

Re: What are you drinking right now?
^^^Beam black and free beer sounds like a winning combo to me good sir.
About to crack into a fresh bottle of Bushmills black to end this sorry ass excuse for a year.
Cheers everyone!!

Re: What are you drinking right now?
We were upstairs at my parent`s and had some champagne. Needles to say we were a little tipsy by guzzling vodka all day.
Still I manged to down a couple of father`s whitewines, though I felt a little bit uneasy seeing the bottle go empty. He told me important stuff that we both wont remember, he for being old and me for thinking about having my next real drink with some smoke

Re: What are you drinking right now?
Cold beer. All day long. It's been a fun day off.
Re: What are you drinking right now?
Clearly not drunk enough to call it quits. Drinking more of the usual despite it being a work day tomorrow -- I'll manage.
Don't worry. We're in no hurry.

Re: What are you drinking right now?
Old Port (Portland, Maine) "bourbon" whiskey that is named Liquid Riot.
It's kind of like tea instead of robust coffee.
45% ABV but it has a handy dandy Grolsch-style bottle stopper.
At least there's that.
Tomorrow: 4" of snow as we hunt for a place to live in Bangor or Veazie.
Now for more Maine "bourbon"
