| I'm really liking this Newcastle Brown Ale, not sure if I like it more than the St. Bernadus or not, but it's awesome.

I know Pilsner is the beer that every Saskatchewanian drinks, but I actually quite enjoy it, though it's almost too easy to drink.
Is Boxer beer a Mannitoban beer? Or is that Alberta? I've never tried it, but I hear it's making it's way into Saskatchewan. | Boxer is definitely in Alberta. But don't bother with it unless your on a budget. My friend compared it to being the generic beer of a generic beer. It tastes terrible.

However now that they're wrapped in the mashed tobacco leaf like a black & mild instead of the paper wrapper (paper wrap = cig, tobacco wrap = cigar hence how they bypass the ban) they taste like crap. Seriously, awful, awful, awful.
apparently there are some sites that you can order a carton (10 packs of 16) for the price of what used to be spent on 3 packs of 20.
I don't know that I'd buy 'em just because i'm not that into it, but I have some friends who are very anti-democrat because of this right now |

| Hmm, I love a cigar wrapped in a tobacco leaf. Like Backwoods, my favorite low budget cigar. Awesome, they're a bang for your buck.

| By the way, I sent both an email to Half Pints and Fort Garry.
Can't get Fort Garry in your area.
Half Pints say "The SLGA will have our beer. I think the one by McNally Robinson should be your best bet." |

| My birthday and my roommate's birthday is coming up....We're planning on dropping a pretty penny on some fancy liquor with a few other buddies. Does anybody have any recommendations?
Also, my roommate was discussing getting some absinthe...does anybody know anything about it, and if there's any brands to look into? |

| I've decided that the New Castle is definitely my favorite drink so far.

It's a bummer I have to order it by mail...nobody in my town carries it. Oh well.
Newcastle is a good beer. It's my go to for when I have friends over and I'm buying. |

Almost Enough - do your research before you order. The good stuff is wonderful and the bad stuff was some of the most vile stuff I've ever tasted. I've only tried it three times (three different brands), two were good and one was horrid. I don't remember which we had, but if you want I can ask my buddy and see if he remembers.
Also. Mm. December. Having my first rum & eggnog. Thinking about making my own eggnog after the stuff I bought runs out, which I've never done before. |

| My wife surprised me the other day with one of the big ol' bottles of Rouge Chocolate Stout. It was really good, but maybe just a tad bitter for my taste. I also just grabbed a pack of Hoegaarden, which I've heard good stuff about. |

He has invited me over for a night of beverages and Beatles Rock Band. I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Thanks for the input MicahB. I'm going to probably order one of the ones featured in that video. Most likely the one distilled in Philly. |

I'm a fan of vodka, but I can't handle the flavoured stuff (for the most part) |
