Well, that nixes Milwaukee, right there! ;)
As long as Leinenkugel doesn't leave the state, I'm happy. :)
Leinenkugel is so much better than any product either Miller or Coors offers.
I would not like to see Miller moving out of the city right when I am moving back!!! It’d be quite sad to catch that whiff of yeast when coming in from Minneapolis into downtown Milwaukee on I-94.
I think Milwaukee would’ve really had the upper hand, if the people of Wisconsin didn’t elect a tax-raising Democrat like Jim Doyle as governor.
And even if they do lose Miller they’ll elect that POS right back into office next chance they (soon to be we I guess) get...
From the sounds of it, even the Denver Post is having voters remorse over their elected govenor...he’s no pro business beacon either.
In the end they’ll just open a new facility in pro-business Mississippi like every other company these days ;)
I am never going to drink another Miller beer after seeing pictures of the festival Miller sponsored in Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s home district in California. I think I will also give up drinking Coors. What really bothers me is the fact that the people in those photos voted Pelosi into office and now the rest of us have to put up with her as Speaker...it’s disgusting.
forget denver and milwaukee. gimme some real beer towns. like kalamazoo (mi) or portland (or).
I’m not a big beer drinker but I found Guiness daught a year ago and found it to be one of the smoothest, creamiest dark beers I’ve ever had.
To all ya’ beer afficiandos, how does this one rank?
Except for that weird tasting Sunset Wheat beer, it’s the only Leinenkugel product I’ve been able to find around Tidewater VA. I remember as a kid in Eau Claire, that the regular Leinenkugel was pretty good though.
Drink enough, and you will be daught or daft.
I would recommend you give Boddingtons a try, if you like Guinness.
It has a very similar mouthfeel to Guinness, but is a lighter ale. I find that people who enjoy the texture of Guinness also enjoy Boddingtons and Newcastle Brown Ale.
They used to make an old-school bock beer in the spring.
Some of my most enjoyable college days in Chicago were spring weekends hanging out on my balcony when it just started getting warm: enjoying good company, Leinie bock, Edwardo's pizza and sweet soul music.
I hope this new arrangement includes better distribution channels - very hard to find Leinie's out here on the East Coast.

Great places I visited there....sad to see the Pabst Brewery closed in 96.....:o)
Denver itself is a dump, crime, trash in the streets etc ....I bypass it when possible.
Milwaukee has been going downhill for years now. It's a perfect example of what happens when you have a city run by democrats. I hope Scott Walker runs for mayor of Milwaukee and then governor of WI. As of right now, he's our only hope.
As long as Leinenkugel doesn't leave the state, I'm happy. :)
Leinenkugel blows Miller out of the water. Miller is pee water.
My favorite:
There are no words to describe the smell of driving on I-94 on a very hot summer day. It's like stank foot x 1,000,000 and it just hovers in the thick, humid air. So nasty.
Thank you....If you ever want good cigar recommendations, I’m your guy....
I like all that you mention, with the exception of Newcastle. Just haven’t really been able to get into the brown ales as much.
Sam Smith breweries out of London (I think) makes some bottled stouts (no can with the widget) that I like alot as well.
When all is said and done, I’ll take a Porter (and a porterhouse).
I have to confess, though (thank God it is an anonymous forum) that while traveling in Viet Nam this past summer (100 degrees with 99.9% humidity for days on end) that I rekindled my affection for cheap lagers.
I’m a fan of Guiness as well. Yuengling Porter or Black and Tan are the ones I keep in my fridge.
