Best beer for practicing bass!

[Killed_by_Death]

I usually think, this is going to be a great night. After about 4, I think, damn this bass is heavy!

Ommegang Rare Vos, or any Belgan Trappist ale.

If you are practicing with an FMIC product, it could be Samuel Adams, Dos Equis, Asahi Kuronama, Hite, Bintang, Kingfisher, Taiwan Beer, or Tsing Tao.

I'm a huge fan of their Supergoose, but don't get up that way very often.

I'm too much of a wimp for Supergoose. The regular Mongoose is okay, but Supergoose... Whew! That's potent.

I'm posting this here because we're mixing bass and booze. . . . . Back around 1984-85, I sipped a mixed alcoholic drink from the same cup as Jaco; yes THE Jaco. No excrement!!! I signed up for a lesson with him (his "agent" at the time, THE Jerry Jemmott no less, placed an ad in the Village Voice newspaper to the effect that Jaco was giving private lessons) that would take place right before his gig at the, now closed, Lone Star Cafe in NYC. At the appointed time I came up to his table, where he was having dinner with his wife, to introduce myself, and he immediately handed his cup over to me and said something to the effect of "here, have a drink". The lesson itself started about 15 minutes later, after he was done with dinner. Also way cool is that I briefly got to play one of his (his only?) fretted J basses... OK then, let's hear from all the non-believers and skeptics.

Bass or Becks Dark for British Invasion. Coors or Bud for classic American Rock and Roll. And when I'm feeling a little Reggae, Red Stripe "Ya Mon." Keep the groove.

Ten Barrel Apocalypse IPA. I love hoppy beers.

But who am I kidding? I don't drink and play anymore. As I've gotten older, I'm more aware of how much I suck when I drink & play. Wish I'd known that when I was younger.

You won't get a buzz, that's for sure.

Free is good, but the best beer is free and cold.

Great Lakes, Bell's, Founder's all make some great beers.

Motorhead is Heavy Metal on some songs, and Punk on other songs.
I asked Lemmy about it, and he said, "We are Motorhead, and we play rock and roll, MATE!".

PortvCity Brewing Co makes a delicious Porter. They are in Alexandria VA

Wasatch Brewing in SLC Utah makes a mean porter too. They call it Polygamy Porter.
