I remember those big Foster's cans. That stuff was really unique back in the day.
What no Bud fans? My daddy was a loyal tall boy Budweiser drinkin, camels smokin, Dallas Cowboy lovin, guitar playin, House of New Orleans...o.k. I don't know where that came from. Love my daddy.
No disrespect to your daddy, Michelle ... honest ... but I can't go Budweiser. And you can't make me.
No Budweiser here either, I grew up anti Bud. With Pabst, Schlitz, Blatz, Miller, Hamms, Potosi etc. who needed to support a beer from out of state.
It's alright. It was one of those moments Larry, I don't even drink beer.I go with the hard cider myself.

I've never had the pleasure. I'll look for some.:::roots around in an imaginary refrigerator:::
Hmmm ... seems we're all out.
I will have to try that, I am stuck on Apple.
There's a microbrewery in town, Fish Brewing Company, that makes pear cider, and you can get it on tap at their pub, The Fishbowl.It's called Spire Draft Cider, and I've seen it in bottles at the grocery store, too. But, it's better on tap.

You bet, Jim. Be ready to jump in on the fly as I hold the door open.
I will look for that while I'm out Jackie, thanks.
The Underground Pub has it on tap - Woodchuck Pear Cider. I don't go there often, but when I do, I almost always get at least one glass of pear cider. In consideration of the fact that I'm only slightly a fan of certain pears (I like Red Bartletts and Bosc), it's a surprise I even bothered trying it. However, pear cider is divine - not as sweet as apple, cool, refreshing, bubbly, fragrant...

I thought you said you were going to hold the door open, not open it as I was jumping in. :-).

Timing IS everything, Jim!
Huh. I never liked Budweiser either.But pear cider sounds too much like a wimpy drink, like an appletini or something. Unless I visualize some old guy making the cider in a backwoods still.
Sorry Jim. :::drives around the block to make another pass, this time with the door open:::
Woodchuck Pear Cider's bottle will kick your bottle's butt any day. It's NOT wimpy! It's not.
It's not.
It looks somewhat acceptable, I must agree.
Woodchucks are our friends, folks. Yup.:::looks for an opener:::

And if fella enjoys an appletini, what's wrong with that, I'd like to know!What's in an appletini, anyways?
Apple flavored vodka - laaaaame. Skyy Vanilla, on the other hand... :)
Okay, if YOU say so, Heidi.
Absolut has the corner on the flavored vodkas market. Absolutely, they do. Skyy Vanilla is superior to all, though.
According to the Skyy site, an appletini is made with 2 oz Skyy vodka, 1 oz sour apple liqueur, splash of lemon-lime sodaMix Vodka and sour apple liqueur in shaker filled with ice. Shake and serve in a cocktail glass. Add a splash of lemon lime soda and garnish with a green apple wedge.
Hey, that doesn't sound bad at all!
Definitely different from the apple flavored vodka...

But I'll say this: In SFO this spring I had a nice pint of pear cider. mmmmm.
We don't have Pear cider at our local store. I will have to settle for my Hard Apple Woodchuck, for now.Has anyone ever tried Absinth?
Is that the stuff that makes the heart grow fonder?
one would think....from this thread.....that this is an AA group threadyou guys just like to drink it seems. even though you may not like something you at least have already tried it. a TC party would turn into a mosh pit quickly especially if King Dinosaur was onstage
