  • Packers fans are always cool.

    Packers and Bills are my two favorite opposing fan bases.

    Steelers and Cowboys the worst.

    Bengals are the stupidest.

    Yep, on all counts. I'll add in the Jets' as one of the worst.

  • Hey Browns fans visited Cleveland a month ago. Very nice city and beautiful stadiums. They were doing construction on Browns stadium when I was there so they wouldn't let us go inside. The field was gorgeous and went in the Pro shop and even bought a Browns football shirt. Anyways best wishes to you guys this season. I hit up a place called the Thirsty Parrot there, you guys ever been there behind Progressive field? I was treated great there and all the Brown fans were super nice even though I told them I was a Packer fan lol.

    Thanks. How can anyone hate the Pack? They are traditionally classy....like our Browns.

  • Also watched the Tigers Indians game there. I wanted to go up the terminal tower but we couldn't find out how to get to the top. Nice mall on the bottom though.

    I pretty much agree as well, though I have to be a little touchy since my daughter essentially claims to be a Cowboy fan, now that she lives in San Antonio. But, is it fair to say that with women you have to give them a little grace? I mean, for her, she became a Cowboy fan because she liked the cheerleaders.....and not for the reasons most of us like the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders. (she actually likes them because of their cheerleading. And now she is like the captain of a Texas University cheerleading squad.).

    But your are right on about Packer fans. Great folks. In fact we have family friends that live in Green Bay.

    But I would also say this....Steeler fans are the worse...but they also rival Bengal fans for the stupidest.

    Fair to say?

    If you ever see Ballast Point Sculpin IPA, it's the best beer ever created.

    They sell it at Heinens here supposedly. I will have to go check it out.

    I bought a six yesterday of Shock Top's Honey Bourbon Cask Wheat. Got half a bottle down before I had to give up on it. Thankfully the wife will make sure it doesn't go to waste. I like trying new stuff but damn it sucks when you get one you can't even force down.

    I'm not a fan of the fruity Summer Shandy either. I tried it on tap at a Browns game last year and although I could at least forcefully drink that one down. Well, at $9 a cup, you'll find a way.

    Can someone give me a good summer ale out there to try? I've had Sam Adams and Blue Moon summer wheat ale. They are ok, the SA one is fairly tasty, but looking for something else different... My problem too is being able to find it. There are a couple wine and beer shops near me that get better selections, but still are limited.

    Sierra Nevada Summerfest. Nice clean taste. No gay fruit.

    Had to go out of my way to find this a little (at my nearest Giant Eagle actually), but picked up a 12 this weekend to try...it was absoeffinlutely delicious. Thanks Z for pointing this out. I've not yet found a Sierra Nevada I didn't love.

    BTW they had a Sierra Nevada 4-way IPA variety pack sitting next to the Summerfest. I was tempted to pick it up as well, maybe next time. Right now I'm trying to find good beers to enjoy aside from IPAs.

    I'm not a big IPA guy, but always like to have 2 or 3 options in the fridge ... One is usually Sam Adams Boston Lager ... My favorite fallback beer since I was a youngster ... Just like the taste.

    Tonight I picked up some more Sierra Nevada Summerfest and it is going down smooth ... Good and flavorful, but it doesn't try too hard like some Summer beers.

  • In my attempt to score the much heralded Ballast Pointe IPA l ended up with Lagunitas IPA, because both brands were mentioned in this thread and it got all screwed up in my mind.

    So anyway, the Lagunitas IPA is just ok for me. Doesn't quite have that bite, and l can't dance to it.

    Ever tried Breckenridge Batch 471 IPA? That's pretty up there for me in the IPA department.

    If Yan can cook, so can you.

  • went into hastings with the crew and tried a broken bow brewery irish red IPA the other day. like i said i'll do 2-3 of the good tasting fill beers and then switch over to something lighter....BUT this was really good stuff. made in their brewery about 10 miles away in tuckahoe, NY.

    anyone watch the new show on HBO called 'the leftovers'? well that whole first episode was filmed in and around where i live in the rivertowns. post more about it in westside steve's movie reviews.

    yeah the Lagunit as ipa is ok but it's a run-of-the-mill IPA. They make one called "Sucks" which is great. The Breckenridge 417 is overpriced in my opinion. Be careful when getting bottled IPA because if it sits on a shelf the hops tend to fade.
