Back in 2002 I was in Golden Colorado to visit some friends. We had gone
down tot he hotel bar for happy hour and their special was buy one draft
beer get one free. I asked the bar tender if it was Coors. His answered
"No sir. We have some good beers too"

LOL! That's awesome.


In a beer bar in Bruges they talked me out of ordering a Blanche de
Bruges, for the same reason: the local product was clearly inferior.

The day we passed through Bruges we ended up staying in Ypres. It was a
hot summer day and I ordered a glass of beer. It was incredible. I was
too busy enjoying the best beer of my life to find out what it was. It
was incredible.

It's a social thing. Shmoozing with your buddies for hour after hour, while
downing beer after beer, is a mark of True Masculinity. So a lower-calorie
beer seems desirable.

There was a short-lived low-carb beer in the late 60s, long before low-carb
became a trend. I remember seeing the ads in New York, but I don't remember
the name.

Some states allowed the sale of 3.2% alcohol beer to 18 year olds,
while you had to be 21 to buy 6%. It was commonly referred to as 'Near
beer'.

I remember 3.2, but I don't remember that law. In my home state, you
could drink any alcohol at 18. Neighboring state was 21 so we had quite
an influx of partyers on weekends.

The beer was called Gablingers and it was brewed by Rheingold so it
was available in NY, NJ. and New England. Chuck

3.2 beer is not the same as near beer. Why do people blow out their
asses? Near beer has less than 0.5% alcohol.

Do you have proof that it wasn't referred to 'near beer' by kids in
parts of the US 50 years ago, or is your head up your ass and you need
your glass belly button to see your keyboard?

3.2 beer is not the same as near beer.  Why do people blow out their
asses?  Near beer has less than 0.5% alcohol.

so. In Missouri, the only beer you could buy on Sundays was that 3.2
junk. I drank my share of it. When the piece of shit John Ashcroft
finally left office, the laws against Sunday sales were repealed.

offended and needless to say I was no longer invited to any more Coors

Sounds like a win to me. Coors is awful.

Yeah. AB Natural Light is the only good beer.

When we go camping in the Ozark back country we see lots of empty cans
of Nat Light thrown on the side of the gravel roads. The yokels drink
a lot of the stuff. That and Busch.

The definition of non-intoxicating beer was changed from 0.5% alcohol
to 3.2% by Act of Congress in 1933. "Near beer" has no legal
significance. Why do people blow out their asses, indeed.

In Oregon, until at least the late 70's, all we had was 3.2 beer. Folks used
to go across to Vancouver, WA to buy Coors. Coors was the beer of choice for
beer runs across the river.

It takes awhile, but you can get drunk on it.

Belgium has some of the finest beers I've ever tasted. I do my fair share to
keep those monks rich when I pass through the area,

Same was true in WV, but you could buy regular beer in the ABC stores or zip
over to Ohio. No Coors though.

I knew an Air Force fighter pilot who flew out of MacDill in Tampa in the early
70's who would pick me up a case of Coors whenever he flew out West. Obviously,
my taste in beer has changed, since I now consider that horse piss undrinkable.
