A beer run to Ohio for that overrated rot-gut beer?
Jees ........when I was at Northern Illinois it was runs across the Mississippi for Coors, then when I was in Chicago it was runs to Wisconsin for Point SPecial then later SPotted COw direct from New Glarus. NOw heading to Ohio for Yuengling. None of them are classically great beers but the fact that they taste good and are relatively inaccessible makes a good reason to make a run.
If I happen to buy some beer, when my supply of bourbon is getting frighteningly low, I'll usually spring for some Molson Ice or Labatts & once-in-a-while; Heineken. I also like Dortmunder Union & the classic black-n-tan; 1/2 pitcher of Harp Ale & the remainder Guiness Stout!
I won't waste my money on all those johnny-come-lately yuppie brews...
Back when I was in the USCG, and drank alot, it was Old Millwaukee, Red, White and Blue, Pabst and whatever was cheapest on tap.
Now that I'm much older, and, do not drink much at all, I go for quality and taste, prefering IPAs and ESBs. I've become a beer snob, coffee snob, and by virtue of marriage, a red wine snob.
Not cheap.....thrifty to be politically correct....or cheap.....Nope. "Frugal" comes to mind on a Connie forum.
Cheap is for the KLR650 forums...Nope, .22 is a frugal investment in shims (washers actually), cheap is the labor to twist the carb and drill the 7/64th hole Names like "Thermobob" and "Doohickey" (AKA "Doo") do indeed create the impression of being cheap, but I assure you nothing says "Fruagl" like a set of ammo cans welded to fence posts cut to size and bailing wire used to secure said contraption and all of this to haul 5 cases of PBR to the woods
