PBR gets the job done, but...

Being raised a punker, and being in a hardcore/punk/thrash/metal band, I am often seen drinking PBR (considering the "free beer tickets" usually only entitle me to tall PBR's or nasty 'Gansettes). While this is just good and fine, sometimes (all the time really, depending on cash flow) you need something that will send your taste buds into a tizzy. The following are some of my favorite beers, in no particular order.

Smuttynose IPA

Victory Hop Wollop

Maharajah Imperial IPA

Gordon's IPA(this stuff is amazing for a canned beer. Unfortunately it's fifteen bucks for a four pack)

Saranac High-Peaks Series Imperial IPA

Sierra Nevada Torpedo

Thirsty Dog Siberian Nights (this stout, mixed with the Smuttynose IPA, makes an awesome black and tan)

Simcoe IPA

Harpoon Leviathan Imperial IPA

NOVA SCHIN or GTFO.

$9 for 12.

Never heard of it, I'm assuming, by the price, it's a basic pilsner. If it is, though, PBR's got it beat at $8 a twelve pack (I only drink my pils when it's cheap).

The bootlegger...I mean the liquor store...

Well, it's just that you referenced at least 3 New England/East Coast beers in that list up there, so I was trying to figure out if you simply knew a good place to buy, or if everything was proportionately cheaper than Boston's prices.

Dimocritus

Ah, yes. I'm in RI and I do beleive that it is a bit cheaper here than in Boston. The problem with RI, though, is that you can only buy booze at the liquor store. It's illegal to sell it at convenience stores for some reason. Pisses me off.

Nova Schin non-alcoholic beer

This is probably why I've never heard of it.

Google fail.

The N/A is a subset.  Dummy.

Fuck, the "I'm so impressed with myself because I'm old enough to buy beer" threads are among the most useless and inane ones on the board, and that's saying a lot considering we have threads that were started just to be useless and inane. I mean, there's already a whole thread dedicated to people talking abut what they're drinking; does each individual who reaches legal age need to start their own to make a list of what beers they like?

Hell, at least throw in a review or two, to make it worth reading.
