As for Corona... most people I know can't stand it.

I used to hate beer as well. The reason for it? Because I hadn't had a good one. The only "beers" I had were MGD, Bud Light, Bud Ice, Budweiser, Micholob Ultra, and someone's honey lager (not Honey Brown... that stuff's not too bad). So I came to the conclusion that all beers taste the same... and they all taste like crap.

How wrong I was.

I'd keep trying. If you can find a bar with a large selection, they will usually give you a free taster (about 1/4 of a shot's worth) of the beers. (at least The Ginger Man and Flying Saucer do)

Here's my suggestions. (Click the link to read other's reviews)
- Belhaven Scottish Ale
- Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
- Shiner Bock
- Bass
- Samuel Adams Old Fezziwig Ale
- Samuel Adams Winter Lager (I'm not sure if this is the same as their Winter Brew... I've never had the Winter Lager... unless it's the same thing with a different name)
- Fischer Amber Ale
- Negra Modelo
- Smithwick's
- Harp
- Fireman's #4
- St. Arnold Brown Ale
- Boddington's Pub Ale (but only on tap)

That's all the really good ones that come to mind. If I think of any more I'll let you know.

Cheers. I haven't seen any of those anywhere in Australia, but I will keep my eye out.

For Christmas, my brother gave me a 10-beer microbrew sampler pack from World Market. He knows me like only a brother can.

Man. And my mother got me pajamas this year.

The roommates are planning some sort of a New Year's shindig, so I think I am going to make a big pot of mulled wine. Does anyone have any suggestions/recipes?

Spike it with some rum to make it really kick.

I kid.

Something I should've gotten for my brother.

Never mind... he's 10.

Wow, I was playing my whistle when I read this and you made blow quite a nasty, loud, and high-pitched note... at 11 at night. The neighbors thank you.

It's really not necessary to practice with a rape whistle. They are pretty easy to "play." *sad*

I personally would squeal like a little girl in serious glee if I saw a spiked bowl of punch that was flaming. Yess.

Rum?

Spike it with everclear. Everyone will thank you later .

In other current and exciting news, as of today I'm legal for tobacco. You better bet I'm going out to get a pipe and a cigar to try today. I've already had cloves and they weren't anything special, but I do find myself wanting to try them again.
