(Or, as the case was that night, Indian food, which works just as well.)<BR/><BR/>And frankly, as I've said on the show, I really don't like being drunk. Don't get me wrong, a nice little buzz is fine but I feel awful when it gets above that, headachey and sick and nauseous.<BR/><BR/>As you've stated, we're not like other shows. And you no longer like our show, which is fine. But to question us for having the gall to not be social misfits? I have to say I find such eager embracing of buffoonery more than a little childish.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10601112097285360658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503619686876072567.post-20960868474147406792009-02-16T10:48:00.000-06:002009-02-16T10:48:00.000-06:00Do you think professional tasters drink the entire...Do you think professional tasters drink the entire bottle? There's a reason for dumping a beer. If you're tasting a bunch of beers in a sitting, you don't want to get drunk, especially when they're high alcohol. You also don't want to get palate fatigue, or you'll end up not fully appreciating the next beers.<BR/><BR/>Sure, it's their home base, but what's the problem with dumping a beer?RunawayJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11260004991617632452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503619686876072567.post-31861028145738291262009-02-15T13:38:00.000-06:002009-02-15T13:38:00.000-06:00Indeed.

If you have to drive, you need to itznay the heavy drinking altogether and sip something that won't have you wrapped around a tree or worse.The American Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05404663929961039814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503619686876072567.post-14677401983533980512009-02-15T12:25:00.000-06:002009-02-15T12:25:00.000-06:00Since the studio doubles as a home base, I'll give...Since the studio doubles as a home base, I'll give you this. However, if a beer sucks, there's no real use in finishing it just for the alcohol. That's what 151 is for. Also, I've been at events where they pour lots of different high-alcohol beers and if it's a choice between getting home safely or finishing the glass just to avoid violating a Man Law, I know which PD I'd rather face down.Brian Yaegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809280960510780621noreply@blogger.com
