So I was on the road home from out of town today and stopped by a Red Robin to grab a bite on the way. There was one seat at the bar, so I took it, in-between a couple and a group of guys hitting on girls. So I look at the tap, and noticed they have both Fat Tire and SA Noble Pils (which I have three in the fridge as I type)... I decided to go with the Fat Tire because it's been a while since I've had one and I have SA at home. Anyhow, a few min. later, one of the guys beside me said, let me try some of that Sam Adams to the bartender. She poured him a shot of it... and he made the funniest looking face I have seen in a while. He said "That is nasty... it has some kinda funky aftertaste." And after-wards, followed with the token man comment, told his buddy, here you try it. He took a sip and was like "Yeah man, that sucks!"... then one of the girls tried it and said... "It's like bitter-sour, maybe it's gone bad." Then... one at a time, they each ordered a Yuengling off tap. I started thinking, I like Yuengling, but I have noticed that it is starting to become a member of the BMC crew. But thanks to this forum and the joys of homebrewing I can say that I now see the appreciation for good beer.
