I'm at Gorb's level of drinking - just not at his level of documentation. Shit takes time and commitment, yo.

EDIT: Nom nom nom... Tweak. It's funny, when I have beers in my fridge I will drink them instantly.

If I put them in my "aging chamber" *COUGH*closet*COUGH* I can easily say "nah! Better let it age". Funny how things work.

I definitely don’t photograph all of them. That would take too much time

That Tweak is from 2014 so all the coffee is pretty much gone. Still a very tasty beer however.

Got cheaper then a $10 whore in TJ and just bought a 30 pack of Natural Ice yesterday for $14 and some odd change before tax so i am set for at least 3-4 days. Not the worst but certainly 2 miles off from one of them there fancy beers i see you fellas posting about. Ironically for a gas station beer i have been buying tons of Stella Artois as well in the 6 pack but at $10 a pop a bit rich for me but still dang my favorite beer to date.

If you're willing to pay $10 a six pack occasionally, try some good beer for goodness sakes. They'd have to pay me to remove a 30 pack of natty ice from the store.

I think the key is ABV. If your objective is drunkeness, get yourself a nice Belgian tripel or something.

Example: Real Ale Devil's Backbone. <$10 for a 6-pack. Over 8% ABV each bottle and tastes nom nom nom.

With shit like Natty you will just be pissing all night before you even get drunk enough to pass out.

Those do look good and given how much i like Stella i can assume that Belgian has to be even better. Sadly i never seen that anywhere in my life here. Maybe its sold by region or something? I Know ABV is key and its why i have Natural occasionally cause i drink fewer to get where i like to be. I am not exactly a fan of getting drunk and i enjoy a cold beer over anything else so unless i find a better brew sadly i will be sticking to Coors or Natural in 30 packs or Stella when i feel like being a bit good to myself.

Its all commercial beer everywhere i freaking look out here and i live in California. Other options i have tried are Ipa and honestly i can't stand them at all . Maybe i need to make distance out here to find good beer idk but usually i have a tight budget and Stella lately has been as rich as i have ever had out here lately. I certainly wouldn't have a issue spending maybe even more once in a while if its incredibly good but options are so limited i get what i can get here i guess.

Stella is pretty good but the bottles are a bit smaller than 12 oz.

Trying out a 6-pack of Caldera Lawnmower Lager.

So good...popped open the can,started drinking...and was sad when I realized I'd drunk the whole 1st 12-oz can down.

Taste is addictive.

Russian River - Happy Hops $5.99/btl. Was drinking Pliny on tap Thursday and the local Total Wine had stock of this. Very, very good beer.

I mentioned a spruce I need to take down this fall, and said I was looking for a backpack to hold fuel and bar oil to refuel in-tree cause my little saw has small tanks that would run out. Someone suggested using plastic pint bottles in my back pockets. Great idea I thought. I was impatient, so I went yesterday hoping to find something good in a plastic hip flask, but I settled for vodka, and Southern Comfort.

I have both bottles in the freezer. Taking it as a shot, the Smirnoff isn't the worst thing ever. It goes down quick, and the aftertaste is/ok/. Sipping is another story. It just isn't that interesting. It's like akvavit without the interesting flavors. I'm interested enough to buy another bottle made in the vodka belt, but I'm not expecting much, and suspect it'll be the last vodka I ever get.

After the vodka's gone, I'll try the Southern Comfort. As a kid, I like it mixed with soda water. To me, it tasted like a less sweet 7&7. Haven't had it since I was kid, so I'm interested in seeing what my adult opinion is. I'll probably think it sucks :^D

edit:
I was just looking at my pic, and thought "Is 375ml a pint!?". It isn't. It's 12.68oz. That's enough for two fills of my saw. Including the initial fill, that should be enough to get the tree limbed going up, and blocked down til I need to switch to a bigger saw.

It's alright, but doesn't taste as good as I remembered. Once this pint's gone, I'll probably be good for the rest of my life :^D
