ubkev Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 Alright, draft is quickly approaching. This is a major moment in Sabres history. Any of you having a special or appropriate beer while watching Eichel get drafted? Would like to hear fellow Sabres fans are sippin' or slammin' when it all goes down. Bud Light! Quote
GoPre Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) Bud Light! I hope that's only because Murray is making the selection! He's a Bud Light freak! Ha ha Edited June 24, 2015 by Thanes16 Quote
3putt Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 Quick poll, what's the most you've ever paid for beer? Any volume. $46 for a case of Three Floyds Dark Lord Alright, draft is quickly approaching. This is a major moment in Sabres history. Any of you having a special or appropriate beer while watching Eichel get drafted? Would like to hear fellow Sabres fans are sippin' or slammin' when it all goes down. I spent this entire season at a new place that had the NHL ticket. After the fourth visit, they would see me coming through the parking lot and have a beer poured and waiting in my little corner seat. They were going to remove it from the rotation but kept it because they new it would go based on my frequency. I will be having a Bell's Two Hearted Ale when they Announce Jack's name. Quote
LTS Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 Quick poll, what's the most you've ever paid for beer? Any volume. $30 for a 750ml bottle. I've paid more for a case of beer as 3putt says below, but I don't count that. I mean, I've purchased a keg before too, so you know.. the pricing thing without volume can be misleading. $46 for a case of Three Floyds Dark Lord I spent this entire season at a new place that had the NHL ticket.

Any Bell's is good. My friend had a couple kegs of Two Hearted Ale at her wedding. Heck yea. Quote
MattPie Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 I'll be on the road all Friday evening, so no beer for me. Much sadness. On the bright side, I'll be in Buffalo to see the aftermath of the celebratory riots Saturday morning. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 $30 for a 750ml bottle. I think that's ~$1.20 per ounce. That trumps $1 per ounce for the 120 Minute. FANC-AY! Quote
MattPie Posted June 24, 2015 Report Posted June 24, 2015 This isn't the most expensive, but awesome: local place had Dogfish World-wide stout 10oz pour for $7 one day. That and one other beer kicked my ass. I think the most expensive per ounce was that same WW Stout at $12 for a 12 oz bottle at Wegmans. Quote

Except Bud is Belgian now. Narragansett would probably be the correct choice. Maybe even...Sam Adams. Ugh. Quote

GoPre Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) Natty? Isn't drinking supposed to be fun? Ha In college it didn't matter what it was. Simply suck it up for the first two natty's and things were fine after that. But wow! Sam Adams as your college beer?! To pricey for my friends and I back then. Of course the philosophy was different. Quantity > quality. Today it's quality > quantity. Edited June 25, 2015 by Thanes16 Quote

Ha Whatever was in the fridge is what we went after. Some nights it was Natty. Other nights it could've been Milwaukee's Best, Miller High Life, PBR, Bucsh Lite, etc... Depended on who bought the brew that night. Busch Lite wasn't that bad actually. Edited June 25, 2015 by Thanes16 Quote
Claude_Verret Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I drank box wine in college on more than a couple occasions when it was all that was available / cheapest.

The only bad beer was no beer. I drank box wine in college on more than a couple occasions when it was all that was available / cheapest.

Personally, I don't like Sam Adams Lager and most of the seasonal rotation, they just don't taste good to me. The rest of their beer is OK to good, but nothing special in terms of craft brew. Quote
hsif Posted June 25, 2015 Report Posted June 25, 2015 In college it was all about low price..... Iron City Brewing had it's "Holiday Beer", which got pretty popular after the March following the Holiday season. Quote
