Where did you go dude? I was at Corning. Genesse sucks.

I agree. One of my top favorites. Among my work travles the Marriott in Buellton has it on tap. mmm...beer on an expense account....

ChinoEd · 02-15-2007, 10:04 PM

I like chimay red bottle or on tap at Barneys in Old Town Pasadena is wonderful... I like Stella..Sierra Nevada (all flavors)...Anderson Valley IPA.....
These are upper end beers that I love but to be honest I'm not that snutty..
I try to have a balance when I buy beer.... The best beer for the buck.....
What can I say... I'm a beer whore...

I'm a beer whore...
I can drink most of them...
Although some of the one's you mentioned are at the top of my favorite list.

Undergrad at Cortland State (when i attended ranked #10 party school in nation by Playboy

). Also grad at Binghamton U. Many a road trip in my day so imagine hit a few of the same bars as you.

Where you riding back east. I miss riding rocks/roots a bit but not the cold.

gotta love the Matt's beer balls though

I stay at that Marriott all the time for work. The Firestone Brewery restaurant right down the road is where I eat (and drink) every time I'm there. There's some beautiful riding in the area too.

went to Corning Comm College in Corning, partied in Binghamton a few times, then went to IU and really partied! started riding there

CalEpic- thanks for the advice. I had a hard time even getting back to my room! Maybe I will make the Firestone races and stop in there for old time sake

Next time you go to the Brewery restaurant, try the Firestone Reserve Float. It's two scoops of vanilla ice cream floating in a mug of their Reserve beer. The first couple of spoons are a little harsh but then it goes down real smooth.
They have a great looking cycling jersey too.

On the earlier subject of Coors Light, I once heard it said that
"The art of being wise is the art of know what beer to overlook."

I was at Chili's the other night and had a Karl Straus "After Dark"....tastey times!!! Its not too heavy, and it has that hint of chocolatey hops or something like that. It goes well with the Memphis Dry-Rub ribs!

ECOdork · 02-20-2007, 12:00 PM

since i haven't been riding as much out here and getting a gut anyways, I've been homebrewing to pass the weekends.

brewed up so far:
-fat tire clone

-"STR" stone ipa clone (in honor of the good times had with STR!

This stuff is shaping up to be LIQUID GOLD!

-Abita Turbodog clone

-Raspberry wheat

I plan to venture out and start concocting my own recipes now that I'm getting the hang of it.

Any ideas??

Saxon Lemon Lager is the closest I could think for ya. If you like the lighter stuff, try Hoegarden from Belgium. If you like it "fruity" add some Belgian Framboise Lambic and make a bloody hoe. (not my name for it). These can all be found at Bevmo.
