Seeing how a pint of Guinness is around 4€ in Galway and in Dublin can cost up to 6€, foreign beverages aren't SO much more expensive. There is an irish wheat beer called Curim or somenthing similar. One bottle is a proud 3,30 € in the shop. Only english ales can be even more expensive.

Paulaner,hoffbrau,spaten etc are about 8-9 bucks a six,which isn't cheap but it's reasonable.Mainstream stuff like Bud is more like 4-5 bucks a six.And we have Yeungling here in NY,(right next to PA) but it really isn't something to get worked up over.If I'm drinking PA beer I'd rather have a rolling rock.And I can make my own Black and tan's,don't need a brewery to mix it for me.

Right now I'm drinking a Miller high life-if I am having mass produced US twist top beer,this is what I have.It's less salty and carbonated than most big US beers.
we have lots of decent micro brew beer here in the us,even the overly hoppy IPA stuff is ok if you aren't eating with it,you pay about twice the amount for a six than bud,but it tastes much better.
I have years of cheap shitty beer drinking behind me,and at this point I would rather drink what i like or stick to water.
it's just another in a lifetime's worth of lessons never learned

i think the whole thing with me and yingling is, i can't have it where i'm at. back in virginia, i could go grab a fuckin case of the shit for like 14 bucks at 7-11 or shoppers or whatever, and here it's non-existent. and i'm like watering at the mouth dreaming of one. mostly for nostalgia purposes i'd say.


i can't drink IPA unless it's all there is to drink. i like some pale ale, sierra nevada is alright, but that india shit is not my shit. i'll drink it, don't get me wrong but i wouldn't pay for one.




about to finish my last 2 winter lagers.
i think next i'll hunt me down some hobgoblins, shh

Plain water. Had Glenfiddich, hot spiced wine and milk (seperately) last night and felt a bit sick later on...
Still to this day
I can hear the whistle blow
I can smell the sage burn
I may be as old and stubborn as a pine
But I am just as wild as the young.
