Both sound right up my alley. Sadly Pliny looks like it has very limited distribution. Not sure about New Glarus.

I've never liked beer ... and believe me ... I've tried and tried.

I think many people -- including my family -- will agree with you ... but for other reasons.

There are beers I'll drink. There are even times a cold beer is the only drink that will do ... for example at a Louisiana shrimp boil (pre BP, of course) on a hot September afternoon ... set on a picnick table at the edge of the Tangipahoa River under the shade of oak. It also works at a Texas BBQ. At these times a cold beer is all that will quench a thirst.

There was this one occasion ... at the Montana Brewing Company in Billings ... I found a beer very easy to drink ... even in the cold of winter. Of course, I can't fly to Billings every time I want a beer.

I used to dislike beer, but then again, that's because I just had average swill. Quality beers are every bit as good as wine or other spirits.

 

[MrGoodBytes]

well I've started on my beer scale back for the next 2 months.... I'm sticking to only PBR.

 

[StandupTJ]

Winter is my favorite season for beer. Tons of delicious stouts, RIS, and porters (my favorite styles) released for seasonals. These have been what frequent my beer fridge lately.
(Sorry about the different sizes)
