Wow, just wow
Saw this at a bar the other day. Pretty sure all beers are undistilled?
I'm sure someone will show up with a "well actually..." on that one.
It's part of Miller's branding for Fortune. They're trying to market the higher ABV as something to be served a few ounces at a time in a rocks glass. Because, y'know, 6.9% is a sippy drink
Yeah, served in a sippy cup, to babies! LOL!
So we are not supposed to drink those bombers of 8%-10% in one night?

Hmmmm, let's see, 22 oz. of 10% alcohol, which is 20 proof, right? Uh, only if you have lots of aspirin in the house. And in YOU before you go to bed. And a bloody Mary for breakfast.
I enjoy rap, but thats just terrible haha. I do remember when the true fourlokos came out and you could seriously get smashed off of two of them. $5 to get wasted, you cant beat that.
I remember when they started brewing that crap. I lived by the former rolling rock brewery where it was made. The crap the put down the drain killed all the good bacteria in the treatment plant and caused Latrobe to smell like a third world country for an entire summer.

...which is the equivalent of 5.5 oz of standard 80 proof spirits, which is equivalent to 3.67 standard drinks...scaaaary...you can keep your aspirin, I'll have another beer!
5.5 oz. of standard 80 proof spirits puts my 130 pounds flat on the floor! Ah knows mah limits. But hey, drink on, I'll just watch.
How do you handle lifting 5 gallons of wort?! Thats like half your weight

We have a nice Brew Hauler (or whatever you call those web belts that go on the carboy), we use plastic carboys, and I have a nice strong KotC (King of the Castle) who is the Brewmeister. I'm the Assistant Brewmeistress!
That being said - I carry around 40 pound sacks of bird seed no problemo.
You can if you're a REAL MAN
Just giving you a hard time I do love the brew haulers!
Oh thank the Lord I don't have to live up to THAT at least!
No worries, I knew ya were yankin' my Brew Hauler. I might be an old fart and female and can't put beer or other alcoholic beverages away as good as you BIG STRONG MEN but hey, I does what I cans!
This is a brewer's forum. It isn't how much you can drink, it's how well you can brew!
So I was having lunch with my Mom when my wife called asking me how to activate a Wyeast smack pack, this is what my Mom overheard:
"You just need to smack the package really hard"
"Don't worry, you can be pretty violent with it without the it exploding everywhere"
"Just smack the package between your hands till the thing inside pops"
"Okay, now just shake it really good"
"It will start to swell up like a balloon, that is normal"
I'm at a brewery and someone just asked for "specials"... Say wha? Everything is cheap... It's a brewery

On topic, "black coffee and pilsners are too bitter for human consumption".

when we had a drip coffeemaker, I loved that beginning of the drip bitter goodness & wished the whole pot was like that. but I also add some Splenda because I like a little sweetness to balance the bitterness
hmmm... I wonder what else that could apply to?
