The bear must recognize that he has a problem , and, by doing so, will make his first, determined steps to a clean and sober life. We're pullin for ya bear.
we have a bunch of bears around our property up here in maine and they are a big pain in the ass.
if I can getr a case of Rainier and left it out so theyd drink, pass out and then wake up all hung over, would i be considered an enabler?
Yes, farmerman. And you'd be enabling the bear to drink insipid beer, which is worse. Rainier used to brewed in Seattle; I have no idea where it's brewed now. Sad...
was Rainier a sweet beer? bears go nuts over sweets. My wife feeds our bears. I tell her shes nuts too, because while we are gone they try to get into the big steel building. They havent succeeded but every yeqar we come back there aqre more scratch marks on the sill plates.
Not especially sweet. Just the standard local lager. Now, though, who knows. I don't even know where the stuff is being brewed. The brewery is right beside the freeway south of downtown, only now it's the headquarters for a coffee company...
The only American beer that retains the local brewery (not microbrewery) feel, is Yuengling. This is one of the finest tasting beers (especially their Chesterfield Ale) and its a well kept secret. I dont think much of it makes it ouit of PA. When we came up to Maine I had to buy several cases for my ex-hippie friiends whove moved to Vermont and MAine yeqars ago. They only miss Yuengling beers and we manage to sponge off them for aa few days by bringing a Yuengling tribute.
I havent drunk it for 11 years but I can still remember the taste , most other beers I only recall as sour tasting headache sauce.
Yuengling is as available as Budweiser here in God's Country...good stuff too.
bear-whatare you saying??? Yuengling is Yuengling. Did Budweiser buy them? ohhh Jeezus, isnt anything sacred? i hope they havent started adding piss to the mash and then watering it down.
no, farmerman I'm merely saying Yuengling is easy to come by here.....sorry to scare you like that.....
oh............. never mind.
It could be worse, it coulda been Iron City Beer . . .
AHHHH Iron City, Rheingold, and that **** from Baltimore. 3 of the finest headache inducing brewskies made.
Oh yeh National Bohemian ---yaaaag
National Bo, now there's a horror story from the past . . . don't forget Rolling Rock . . .
Interesting re Green Death: Rainier used to brew an ale (that wasn't really an ale) fondly referred to as Green Death...
