The beer snob factor of this thread was dissappointing.

Tasty beers I've been enjoying: Duchesse de Bourgogne, La Fin du Monde, Monkfish Triple, Weihenstephaner Hefeweizen.

I concur - was expecting more ...

shame on you sf, shame on you

Am I the only one that thinks stella is overrated?

the thing with Stella is, in Belgium it's basically your light, fallback beer when you don't feel like getting buzzed in five seconds from all their deliciously strong shit. i think there is a time and place for Stella just like there's a time and place for Corona and other beers that are less expensive than the flimsy aluminum can they're in.

imported beer is way expensive in Brazil, i'm jealous of all you North Americans and your widely available variety of microbrews! I'm stuck with Skol most of the time (which i don't actually mind . . .)

have you guys tried miwaulkee's best? so cheap so good, only 10 bucks for 24 pack

im on a chimay kick since my friend got it in on tap at his bar.

wow, must be a nice bar. the only place i've seen it on tap was some place in san francisco.

Posted

yeah... well... its nice but not expensive... not a high class place ya know. he just likes good beer and only carries good beer. also has either a band or dj every night and never a cover.

i think a pint of chimay is 5$... maybe 6

Posted

wow that's beautiful. bars here in japan charge around $8, though i can purchase one at the local import shop for a mere $4. where is this bar located exactly? that price is amazing.

jacksonville florida... in a neighborhood right outside of downtown.

he also lets people paint on the fence and walls outside in the back... hes been the main force behind underground hip hop in jacksonville for years, so writers go there to practice... there is a whole yard area behind the plcae with picnic tables and fires when its cold.

Posted
wow, if i ever go to florida i will definitely check it out, sounds great. what's the name of the place anyway?

its called shantytown pub... 6th street in springfield if your in jacksonville. its the only place i go out to anymore.

its exactly the type of place ive always wanted to see... good beer and wine, good music, and no pretentiousness. also a stack of 90s transworlds and source mags for some memories

I question some of your choices... well, actually all of them. Steel Reserve?!?! Stella Artois?!?! Carling?!? Is this a top 10 beer list, or the list of 10 kinds of swill you'd be caught with at the local?

Ha.. must love the wifebeater. I just threw up Steel Reserve because I used to drink it quite a bit back home.. and I just happen to like Carling for no particular reason.

If cheap beer is your thing come to Pittsburgh. Its as if inflation never made it here. Dollars drafts everywhere all day every day and depending on where you go, its normally something pretty decent ala Hoegaarden, Sierra Nevada...

Posted

really? sounds like a fucking deal...

I live up the road from Anheuser-Busch so Budweiser and related brands are usually the cheap stuff. Our local bars had penny pitchers and $5 trays of the 8 oz solo cups of the stuff, we used to get killed for anywhere from $5-15 a night in college.

My fondest memories though are of rounding up my Japanese friends and taking them out to random white trash bars and lounges. $1 cans of PBR at a bar, but the memories are priceless.

Posted

Yeah its pretty decent. College kids have it made here. Theres a bar called Boomerangs that has 25 cent coors light drafts. Logans has 75 cent PBRs. Ridiculous deals around here.

Posted

yeah... shanty town has 3$ quarts of malt liquor for metal mondays...:D

also, some rouge stout that i want to try.... cant afford it tho... fucking 13$ a bottle... 11% tho, and its a 750ml bottle

This is off topic, but relating to your bar's name.

My friends volunteer for this 'Adopt a Block' program shit where they walk around and pick up trash around the neighborhood. The other day a journalist for the newspaper got assigned to follow them around for a morning and do a piece on the program. Well they decided to scare the crap out of him by wandering through some particularly seedy back alleys in my already seedy neighborhood. Long story they wander down one alley next to a busway and actually found a shanty town. Crackpipes everywhere huge structures of cardboard boxes... It was under the bridge like two blocks down from me.
