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.
LMNO
$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).
Where do you buy?
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.
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.
Anyway, what's a Nova Schin
NOVA SCHIN. (http://www.justfuckinggoogleit.com)
Ass.
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.
that reminds me
i have a beer review thread
(part of me is laughing........... part)

Wow, what a tool. How old do you think I am, anyway? I didn't know there was already a beer thread (didn't look) and honestly, have you tried any of these beers I've listed? They're definitely not kids brews. Get a life. You want a review? You could have just asked. Here.
Saranac High-Peaks Imperial IPA
Wow, what the
fuck. I picked these up on a random hunch, and, like a homeless hitch-hiker, It kicked my ass and left me for dead. Seriously, at about 11-and-change percent ABV, these guys provide some serious bang for the buck. But they'll put you back around 9 smack-a-roos a six pack, so these aren't for your casual Friday's kind of drinking. With ten different hops and ten different malts (I am not making that up. This beer is flavoriffic), you'll be tasting these bad boys 'till the next morning (and you'll be passed out by 10 p.m.) if you don't pace yourselves.
Total score: :| :| :| :| (out of five)
Second opinion (provided by my alter ego): You're a terrible person, kill yourself.

Fair enough. Fix'd.
Smuttynose IPA
This is the best middle of the road IPA you can get. Tremendously tasty hoppy flavor is delivered in this unfiltered brew (Don't let the sediment scare you, it's what I like to call "the goodness") without, what I like to call, the "grapefruit effect." With a slightly above average ABV of around 8 po'-cent, and only running around seven to eight dollars a sixer, this is something you can drink for the long haul.
Total Score: :| :| :| :| (out of five)
Second Opinion: (Provided by a mechanical fortune teller in a box) Follow your intuition and you will have great success (in bed).
Maharajah Imperial IPA
Avery brewing company serves up an imperial IPA that is truly royalty amongst beers. At an almost staggering 10.27 (talk about nickle-and-dimeing that percentage, huh?) ABV, this big guy is a sipper (big sips, but sips none-the-less). As you would imagine, the hop level is deranged but it is balanced out nicely by an adequate amount of malted barley, smoothing out the pungent blend of hops and giving it a rich, reddish-gold hue. The flavor travels a bit longer when you drink it slightly above room temperature. The price is royal as well for this one. You'll be looking at spending around nine bucks for 22 oz. bottle.
Total Score: :| :| :| :| (out of five) note: this would be a five-pointer if it weren't for the price.
Second opinion: (Provided through the channeled spirit of Grover Cleveland) Don't want none unless you got buns, hon.

my favorite beer review, ever, was of a 40 oz. of Camo Malt Liquor.
A friend of mine told me he picked one up to drink while he cleaned his apartment.
He said, "the first half tasted like ass, and the second half tasted like, 'holy shit! i'm wasted' "

It's not the WHAT, it's the HOW. I thought I made that clear.
Oh, I'm not supposed to call it stupid anymore when people are being stupid? Enjoy having a board overrun by AKK and Daruko.

Oh yeah, forgot.
OUR WORK HERE IS DONE!
Oh, by the way, 000: I'm going to, from now on, reply to all threads by talking about how many guys I've fucked and what kinds of beer I drink
Get back to me on how awesome and interesting that makes me.
frankly, I'd say that'd make you more awesome and interesting than 99% of the idiots I interact with daily, but when low-grade idiocy is the norm, pathological alcoholic promiscuity will naturally sound pretty good.
I'm really hung over and I've spent most of the day masturbating to gay internet porn. How does that fit into the grand scheme of things?
I don't know, but it's pretty hot.
it also seems very appropriate for a sub-forum called "mechanically recovered meathole".
YES!
