I just poured a beer down the sink after one drink.

My first craft I poured down the drain was a couple weeks ago - Boulevard Lunar Ale -- Tasted acidic, both of them! - I felt bad for a few days pouring two beers down the drain, but the taste that lingered in my mouth/head for 2 days reminded me why...

Interesting. I had the same experience. Then...3 days later it was about 5 degrees and I decided to give it a go again along with some rotisserie roast beef and grilled potatoes. It was nice.

I don't know if it was the cold weather, if my taste buds evolved in 3 days or the rich meat and potatoes meal blunted the taste buds.

Either way...I'd never buy a 6/12 pack.
 
I live a few miles away from the Millstream brewing company. I think you must of got a bad bottle, I've had many a bottles of beer and also soda and always good.
 
LOL my GOD the SA Cranberry Lambic is horrid.... im actually choking one down right now but i have a fairly good buzz going and dont want to waste my good beer - saving my last 6er for tomorrow's game ;)

you know what i do with beers i dont like? I make beer bread. if you have a beer you cant stand/want to get rid of, just follow this recipe:

I have to try this out, Sounds great:mug:
 
I have never had the Cranberry Lambic but i'm sure it's terrible. I will tell you this, JW Dundee's Hefe is drainable... It's the worst hefe i've ever had in my life.
 
*Sigh* Well, I am sad to say that I found #2 of the brew that had to go down the drain. It unfortunately was my first Doppelbock and it tasted like utter ****. (To me) I would venture to say that this Doppelbock was a Doppleganger of that disgusting SA Lambic.

It almost made me cry to have to dump that brew. Its almost like being a kid again and learning what foods you like and dont like.
