Bucdaddy's annual beer (mini) manifesto

by bucdaddy on Apr 1, 2011 11:02 AM EDT

Most of you should be familiar with this, so ...

here's the abbreviated version:

What name is on the ballpark in St. Louis, Milwaukee and Denver?

Do those teams need any of your financial assistance to kick Pirates ass?

Drink accordingly, my friends.

I find PNC's beer options perfectly adequate so that there's never a need to even consider such swill. There's Yuengling for the timid, Penn for the slightly adventurous and around the park you can find the likes of Dogfish Head 60, Hop Devil and Railbender Ale with which to fortify yourself during those April night games (and the playoffs in October).

Prosit!

On top of not supporting the enemy

Bud and Coors products especially suck and you shouldn’t put crappy stuff in in your body. Miller is okay in a “if I have to drink mass produced swill, it might as well be a Miller.”

Still, there’s too much good beer in the world to drink any of that crap.

Not if you're in college

Yuengling is about as high-end as I can drink right now, (damn budget) and I have a large amount of MGD 64 (I didn’t know they canned water till I bought this). Gonna be a long couple weeks

The glare of the spotlight is harsh, and the pressure that success breeds immense. We revere our heroes, but expect much. And criticism can come as easily as praise.

I drank plenty of Stroh’s and Old Milwaukee in college. I know where you’re coming from.

They have DFH at PNC now? Wow. I always go with the hometown Penn Pilsner or Gold because I can’t get it here in North Carolina, but I rarely say no to a 60 or 90 minute.

And have for a couple years at least.

Used to be you had to trek out to far left field to the 475 Club, or whatever it’s called, to get it, but now I’ve seen it at kiosks in other parts of the park. Best part is, it doesn’t cost any (or much) more than a 16—ounce Yuengling.

you know what makes it hard

i logged into one of my fantasy league drafts late, and missed the 1st 3 rounds. It had already drafted Ryan Braun for me. Fortunately, it drafted Cutch in the 2nd.

"i hate ryan braun so much"

I don’t know why – - Ryan loves you…

Look, he even blew you a kiss:

Roller Dam Red Ale.

The don’t sponsor anything as far as I know. They’re just a small brewery in Davenport, IA.

I’d drink something from Pittsburgh if I lived there.

Swear it now!

Bring some Roller Dam to the June 4th soiree! I’ll bring moonshine!

I'm not as drunk as some thinkle peep I am.

WE'LL bring moonshine.

(That’s a good idea, actually.)

Y'all have got to go to

Deutschland, where every town has its own brewery and your choices are pils, weissen, dunkel-weissen, radlers (ladies only), heffe-weissen, etc. Literally, you cannot buy a Bit(burger) in Frankfurt or Berlin or Hannover because Bits are only brewed in one city. (I drove past it and saw the brewery from the autobahn, but never ausfarted to try it.

If you can’t drink German, drink Saranac, Magic Hat, Dogshead, or another micro-brew.
