The official Roscoe Beer Snob Thread

[Jeff Moote]

I refer back to Gard's comparison of Bud Light to sex in a canoe. Those who know the punchline know exactly what I mean

[RocketMusic]

Sex? In a canoe? Sign me up.

Same for Bud Light.

I love Dunkels....

we've got 2 or 3 dunkels on tap here at the Plattduetsche. why don't you come down this year to the NYC BassFest on August 12, 2012 and show us your Roscoes that we New Yorkers hear so much about.

I've been drinking some Frombacher myself. Mighty fine Pilsner from Germany.

Been there, done that. Not as difficult as one might think.

Hey, when at the lake with a group of people, we did what we had to do to get away.

Dude, I live in Manhattan and own one of the finest Roscoe basses ever. Woo me with promises of good beer and good food and I just may bring 6340 along...

August 12th this year at the Plattduetsche. 35 minutes from penn station. The food is good, real good. But the beer is awesome.

[DAMON]

I'll keep that in mind!

Corona vs. Budweiser vs. Coors vs. Guinness Joke


After the Great Britain Beer Festival, in London, all the brewery presidents decided to go out for a beer.
The guy from Corona sits down and says, "Hey Senor, I would like the world's best beer, a Corona." The bartender dusts off a bottle from the shelf and gives it to him.
The guy from Budweiser says, "I'd like the best beer in the world, give me 'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser." The bartender gives him one.
The guy from Coors says, "I'd like the only beer made with Rocky Mountain spring water, give me a Coors." He gets it.
The guy from Guinness sits down and says, "Give me a Coke." The bartender is a little taken aback, but gives him what he ordered.
The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask "Why aren't you drinking a Guinness?" and the Guinness president replies, "Well, I figured if you guys aren't drinking beer, neither would I."



Try the veal, I'm here all week!

Classic.

Made more so by its accuracy.

[RocketMusic]

Thanks man. Yes, #6360 arrived on Thursday, gigged last night with her (Sat). Plays like butter and sounds FANTASTIC. Nothing compares to a SKB 5 string neck for gigs; so easy to play that I can focus on the other aspects of the performance like my crappy background vocals

Will get better pics later, for now this was taken with my iPhone 4 at the gig:



Cheers, Pete

Good IPA - not filtered. That may be why it is so clean and easy to drink; who knows if it is real, but it sure sounds good.

........and Yes, I like black pepper on everything but cereal!

[Darkstrike]

I hit both ends of the spectrum tonight, Hoegaaden(for some reason, Firefox's spellcheck tells me this is a misspelling of "renegade") and Harp.

Nice, I don't care for many IPA's, but I'm always looking for one I like, such as this one:



..and, black pepper makes everything better!!! No joke: try cooking some granny smith apples in brown sugar and sprinkle some fresh ground black pepper on it.

[DAMON]

Both Long Trail and Lagunitas make some great IPA's. You have to try Heady Topper from Alchemist brewery. No joke, one of the top 3 IPA's I've had.

Unfortunately I can't make it to the GTG, so knock back several for me boys!

Damn!

I was really hoping you'd be able to get here. Sigh...guess I'll have to hit that Lagunitas that's hiding in the shop fridge after we shut down for the day today, in your honor, of course! I'm gettin' started early!!!

If it's one or the other - give me sex in the canoe. I wouldn't pour Bud Light in my toilet. I have a lot of respect for the toilet.

If we're gonna talk beer, let's bring on the REAL BIER.

Mühlen Kölsch



Awesome when served with this.....



or this...




Or Weiss Brau Schwarzbier...



with anything on this menu....



Except maybe the Sauerbraten unless you're really really adventurous.



Or let's leave Germany and head for the Netherlands and toss back a few Grolsch. Yum.
