The Future Is Back: Return of the DeLorean

Do you get the Czech Budweiser ( Budvar ) imported to the US ? - that's a good beer, one of my favourites

Yes, but it's imported as "czechvar" due to legal issues over the name with Annhesier Busch in North America.

Remember your grammar - "I" before "E", except in "Budweiser".

Weird.

Now I seem to remember some good micro-breweries in Cleveland, and they made beers with Cleveland-ish names like Burning River. Some of the seasonal beers were acceptable too. The vineyards of Ohio were not so good tho....

I once had the misfortune to be given a can of PBR on the return bus from a white water rafting trip (Lower Gauly River, W. Virginia). That was without a doubt, the worst shite beer I have ever, ever drunk. End of.

...........Well, maybe not. There was this pallet of beer that found its way onto the tailgate of a Herc returning from a deployment in West Germany, back in the day. It indeed turned out to be so un-drinkable that..But I digress and that is a whole 'nuther story.

Anyway, your Sam Adams served in frozen glass, is an experience. The taste is thankfully negated by the coldness, but the explosive gasses it produces once it ferments in the alimentary canal must have been noted in more than one divorce petition.

Cheers. And cheers again, Rusty

Nah, the team's concessions crew knows its fanbase very well.

PBR, Stag, and Coors are for the season ticket holders who show up to every game, good or bad. They're provided in 24-ounce cans. Depending on the game, one to ten cans may be needed. Some people seen drinking PBR appear to be hipsters, but then you see all their scars from playing hockey and think again. Cost: $3 each.

Molson Canadian is for the white-collar season ticket holders who show up for every game, good or bad, and for the parents of the hockey players when they come in to see their sons at a home game. (Never mind that all the players on the team are primarily from Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Missouri, it's what the hockey parents seem to drink on a regular basis.) That's provided in 12-ounce plastic cups, since we can only get it in bottles and no one really wants to walk through broken glass when someone drops their beer. Molson Golden occasionally shows up as well, though I've never tried it. Cost: $3 each.

Coors Light and Miller Lite are for the wives of the season ticket holders, girlfriends, and anyone who showed up to the beer vendors after the PBR, Stag, and Coors ran out. These are also either in cans or screw-top aluminum bottles. Cost: $3 each.

Killian's and Blue Moon are for the corporate season ticket holders who are bringing in their entire office for a game and white-collar hockey fans who show up to one or two games a year. These are provided in the fanciest and schmanciest of 12-ounce plastic cups, flown in directly from the Solo factory and hand-inspected for flaws. Cost: $3 each.

You know it's a blue-collar crowd when the Stag runs out first. I tend to go with the Coors or Molson.
