    Thanks, I'm becoming blind apparently.

    Round the clock masturbation takes a toll.

    Not really beer, but gimme Colt .45s. Preferably inside a plain brown paper bag.

    Damn, I miss Olympia.

    I've made the rounds with a lot of those. Bud was my go-to beer and then it started giving me headaches. Switched to Stroh's and after a while the same thing. Ditto Rolling Rock. I haven't had that happen with Yuengling or PBR yet.

    Can't you just stick a mouse in an empty bottle and get a free case?

    Please restrict such shameful admissions to the first person.
    An attempt to mitigate your embarrassment through use of the second person plural does not fly.
    You (second person singular) were young. You (second person singular) drank Zima. The rest of us did not.

    I tried one, really half of one. It tasted like Prestone smells.

    There are times when I question how much of a journalism board SJ still is. Then we get a quality post like Buck's. And that kerning stuff. All great.

    If you were just hanging with guys the Zima was pretty much unacceptable. But if girls wanted Zima and there was no more Crazy Horse or Yuenglings left, it was OK to have a Zima. Kind of like in Superbad when Evan said he would get Kyle's Killer Lemonade for Jules.

    It isn't on the list ... but being a Chicago-area native, I have to put in a"good" word for Old Style. Went into one of my home town's local dives during my first return to the area in years and ordered one for old times sake -- and damned if it wasn't bad. Was the first beer I ever drank (stolen bottle from the parents' refrigerator) and first one I got drunk on in high school around '75 or so. That stuff was about the only beer we drank in high school.

    Bronco, I too consumed my share of Old Styles. The following ad mentions "krausening," which I have heard as a synonym for "plastered." As in, "He's fully krausened tonight!"

    For NY-NJ, one not on that list is Rheingold. Not 100% sure, but think in late 80s-early 90s case of Rheingold or Schaeffer was $8 or $9.
