either way, I like it! Just sayin no bottle cap MOSAIC

I dare you to drink STEELE RESERVE and play PINBALL! 
the sugar will have you bangin off the wals like a pinball 
But if you couls, KINGS OF STEELE!
natty ice is a tough one. I'm not artisitic enough to do bottle cap art (i did google it). But a friend of mine glued different bottle caps on a plank and sealed it in resin. It became the top of his home made bar. I've been collecting bottle caps looking forward to the day i can do that. He did have 1 coke bottle cap hidden amongst the beer bottle caps.
No need to run cover I'm sure you are referring to the American lagers that the "Big" breweries make here , I agree that stuff is rubbish . But we've got tons of great small breweries here now producing really great beers, and I would Argue some of the best beers in the world . There was a time when someone asked me "What country produces the best beer ?" and for a long time for me it was England , but with what we've got over here in the US now with the smaller craft brewers I now believe that America(USA) produces the best beer.

Fair enough, I've tried a number on my frequent visits to the US (Microbreweries) and there is some very good stuff in the US but for me beer comes out of a keg, not a bottle or can. But you're right, I was really referring to the dreadful stuff like Bud, Bud light, Coors, Coors light, Michlob etc., all of which taste exactly the same and bloody awful too.
Best lager type beer comes from the Czech Republic, best ale is from Timothy Taylor in England
yeah the US has some amazing craft beers, and at our league we're lucky to have a few brewers that bring home brews. Last league night I had Simtra (http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/23200/78377) and Fresh Squeezed (http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/63/60330) - both are awesome American craft brews!
Bud, coors, miller, yes, thats yellow water. I'm a yuengling fan myself. I prefer a cold german beer over a warm english ale most of the time. Although an ice cold miller chill with lime was great on a hot day. Of course then they stopped making miller chill....
It's a common misconception that English Ale is served warm among you guys! It isn't - it's served from a cask at cellar temperature so about 10 deg C or 50 deg F. You get the proper flavour without your mouth going numb with cold.
Lagers are served at about 3 - 4 deg C similar to how you serve it. In the UK German beer is not so popular; Czech and Belgian lagers tend to be the premium ones.
Quoted from genex:Pliny is a great beer for any occasion for sure! Last night I had one of my favorite Berlinerweisse's - Bear Republic's Tartare. And then I proceeded to get my highest score ever on Theatre of Magic:
This. New batch making its rounds through San Diego. Such a great beer.
Quoted from pinheadpuckguy:Were you at the after party at MGC Flank? I had my Lucifer's Kiss Vanilla Bourbon ale there on tap.
I didn't bring a game or anything so I didnt stick around, will be there next time for sure!
I am gonna bring two brews next year. Probably "Honey I Shrunk My Weizen" and maybe "Hoptical Illusion" or a black IPA.
