Some of them are part of my personal growth as a beer drinker...
Growing up in Appalachia, Bud was synonymous with beer.

Sam Adams was my 1st discovery of flavors other than the
corn/rice of American light lager.

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale taught me that some hop bitterness
could be OK with a balanced malt backbone (and APA
remains one of my favorite styles)

And Pliny taught me that hops was more than bitterness...

I've had (and enjoyed) some of the other on list as well, but
those are the standouts that mark profound shifts in my
enjoyment of beer.

I'm wondering what it means about me that I see alcoholized SunnyD on the shelves now. Is it because the youth that grew up with the ceaseless SunnyD ads, for something only a gnat's a $ $ away from being Tang, is now old enough to drink?

But I have no issue with the premade Jack & Coke.

I ponder these things.

Earlier, after I got home from the store I put away the groceries I bought and took the empty plastic bags out to the garage. I put them in a larger plastic bag with the other bags I've collected. I probably won't ever do anything with these 45 bags, yet here they sit. In my garage. Taking up space.
