You must have an awfully myopic view of our great country if you're
limited to a 200 mile radius of your hometown on the weekends.

20 years as a USN fighter pilot, 17 address in 20 years. have lived on
both coasts, including gulf coast, including 30 months in Japan...don't
need to drive around to see what a 'great; country it is...The
"Republic of Boulder' and it's county suits me fine plus I can use that
$30 for a tank of gold to buy a new tire.

You have no use for the micro breweries, while I have.
Still, I think that Mickeys' is better than most beers,
regardless of origin, price, or reputation. It is a good
honest pilsner with a respectable alcohol content.

Yep, I fond that out 5 times last night....

This one time, at a chili cook off in La Grange, I remember digging thru
the cooler HOPING to find a Lone Star Light! (Light is MUCH worse than
regular Lone Star). The only other choice was Buckhorn. If you haven't
tasted either imagine Pabst/Iron City/Falstaff that had been sitting in
a hot warehouse for a couple of years.

Hey, it's their own fault for letting (making) a broke guy (me) buy the
beer.

I apologized for years, I don't think the rest of the cook off team ever
forgave me.

It was a great day in the City of Pittsburgh when Tom Pastorius opened
the Penn Brewery (has it been 13 years already?). Microbreweries such
as The Foundry and Valhalla have come and gone, but one can still grab
a fine German meal of and wash it down with copious amounts of Penn
Dark.
Funny how much contract brewing for Sam Adams Iron City used to do.

Don't know about Floyd, but I have heard that Lance Armstrong (like a
lot of Texans) prefers Shiner Bock, while Levi Leipheimer (like a lot
of Californians) prefers Sierra Nevada. I must say I have much more
respect for Levi's choice.

See my post...doin't mind SB...Sierra Nevada makes me gag.....

Dumbass,

A brewery makes you gag?

Might you be referring to their Bigfoot Barleywine?
Porter?
Stout?
Pale Ale?
Brown Ale? (goes great with barbeque)
Celebration Ale? (seasonal)
Wheat?
Summer Ale?

S-N is not my favorite brewery by any means (that would be Stone
Brewery) but they put out decent stuff, across the board.

My usual is SN Pale. Seems kinda variable; maybe it's just me but there
have been samples where if that had been my first SNP, it would have
been the last. Their Stout, I've tried a couple of times. An insult to
the name.

Mickey's? It's been 20 years, or more. You're up! --D-y

It's 20 years 1986-2006!

My grandfather was a cooper (barrel maker) at the old E&O Brewery
(Eberhardt & Ober Brewing) until prohibition: "Drink E & O Early and
Often".

The E&O Brewery building remained vacant for many years until it opened
in 1986 as Penn Brewery. They are pretty unique among microbreweries as
they produce pilsners vs. ales. They make some very good German style
beers and great food also.

Out here on the left coast Sam Adams ran a bunch of BS ads claiming that
most breweries spill more beer than Sam Adams makes - probably very
true!

Pittsburgh Brewing Co. makers of IRON CITY has produced about 99% of the
blue label Sam Adams Boston Lager. Portland's Henry Weinhard
(Blitz-Weinhard) and Genesee Brewing Company in New York State make the
Sam Adams red and green label beers, I can't remember which is which but
read the labels.
