How to Make Almost Any Craft Beer Taste Better

Post by John Sand »

Drink a Bud Light first. I'm not trying to be a beer snob, but I had this experience last week. I went bowling with some friends and neighbors. (About my second time in twenty years. I didn't finish last, or hurt myself.) The first guy went to the bar and brought back a pitcher of Bud Light. Of course I drank it, though after IPAs it seems like club soda. The next guy brought back a pitcher of Blue Point Toasted. I used to drink it regularly, and I still do if it's a choice between BMC or Blue Point. I put Sam Adams in the same class: a good fallback in the absence of micros. Wow, after the BL, the Blue Point really shone -more body, more flavor, I could taste the crystal and hops.
I'm going to keep some light beer around to improve my homebrew! :D

I acquired some MGD after a barbecue last summer. I was thinking of cooking with it, but I think instead I will just save it for the next time I make a so-so batch.

Get some Billy Beer...yours will really shine! :lol:
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
