New Sponsor for Striper Cup

[FishermanTim]

Personally I hate Bud. If I had to choose between that and pickle juice, I'd take the vinegar residue every time.

Here's what I found strangely humorous is Bud's last greatest campaign to be the world's best "beer maker" by pushing their "born on dating" crap. I didn't know beer had such an exact shelf-life, and that if you drank beer AFTER that date, you were drinking "less-than-perfect" beer? (Doesn't ALL Bud fall into that category?)
It was nothing more than a ploy to fool people into thinking that they NEEDED to buy "fresh" Bud, or risk some unknown beer malady from drinking old Bud.

I like trying brews from independent brewers.
I like micro brews, but shy away from any extravagant concoctions that stray away from the basic recipes for good beer, ale, lager or stout. When you start making chocolate-rapberry stout, for example, you have strayed too far and have lost me.

I like Guiness (draft not bottle EVER!!!), Harpoon, Sam Adams, Rolling Rock (old not new), Hardcastle, Smithwicks (from draft in Ireland, not from a bottle here), Samiclaus (?) (one bottle is enough)
and any number of small brewery simple creations (IPA, stouts and lagers).

I do like the wachusett beers. They have some wild concoctions but they're not totally overpowering like some of these overly hopped beers that feel like drinking oatmeal.

Booberries are loaded with anti oxidents right. So if it comes down to a matter of health then go boo.
