I love ambers.
YuengLing has been my steady date for a while now.... not available in TX as yet, but I pick up a couple cases when I visit the grandkids in BAMA... plus in a pinch it is as far west as Louisiana. Others that I have when out to eat include Dos Equis and Abita. The latter is brewed in Louisiana and is really growing fast.
Another Abita I just "found" is "Andygator". Local cajun place was out of Amber so I tried it and it was really, really good.
And, yes, Cinci chili is an abomination that is not to be taken internally.

Both Abitas are available at Total Wine in Austin (Lakeline). Which do you like best?

Ha- beer is beer, and wine is wine. There are a few "wine in a can" things showing up of late. Most drinkable, but all of them pretty nondescript.

Tour- regarding yen-ling that Chinese beer they make in Pennsylvania. I fail to see much difference between it and a bunch of the other national brands. I tried it several times when it first became available in Ohio- and I haven't gone back. I just finished a Great Lakes Dortmunder, and that's much more to my liking- even with the price premium. Dos Equis is my go to brand when I'm doing Mexican. Just no to Corona- which is South of the Border Budweiser.
I think I've mentioned it before- MHO is when Coors went national, something changed. Early 70s, I could pick out Coors from a lineup of 5-6 other brews without fail, won a lot of money doing so too. Not anymore. Who knows? At my advanced age, maybe my nose is shot.

The hits keep coming from over at Bengals subreddit:
They have drunk heavily of contaminated Ohio River water if they believe all that.... 8-0? Starting out with on the road against Seattle, 49ers, at the Bills, road Steelers, I'll give 'em a win against the Cardinals, tossup Jaguars, and road Rams? Can we say more like 2-6 in the real world?

...In other news, Bengals first round selection Jonah Williams, who was selected #11 overall is lost for the season.
When it rains, it pours. ???
All joking aside, I hope he recovers well, never wish players outside of Pittsburgh to get hurt.

To hell with that. I hope he retires too. The Bungles are to my generation ( I’m 30 ) what the Steelers were to my fathers. Their fans bring out the worst in me. Then there’s Dave Lapham.... actually never mind. I hate them.The worst part about this afc north take over will be the Bengals fans. They’ll go into hiding and we won’t get to rub salt in the wound. Those idiots want to prance around in those Halloween uniforms acting like Akili Smith and Peter Warrick never happened. Well guess what sunshine? It did. Their 15 minutes is finally over.

Arrrgggg!!!! You would have to bring up f'n Dave Lapham, I had him blotted out of my memory until you mentioned him. Just another reason to hate the Bengals. For those who have never heard a Bengals radio broadcast- instead of getting a competent color commentator expert- Mike Brown hired a freaking biased cheerleader instead. Since the Steelers announcer Myron Cope passed away a few years ago, Lapham has to be the worst going.
But there's more news. Having a chat with my doctor this afternoon (he's a Bengals fan) and the subject of the Bengals came up. Mostly because I was getting a pretty good chuckle about Brownie's post when he walked in. Seems like Jimmy Haslam wasn't the only owner who pulled rank and wanted some major PR drafting (Johnny Football), Mike Brown made the same mistake. My Doc was doing an orthopedic residency down in Cincinnati and ran across the former Bengal's team doctor. Apparently he did a pre draft physical on Ki-Jana Carter. Hey, Mr. Brown- Carter's ACL is 85% gone. DON'T DRAFT HIM. We know how that one turned out.

I listen to the radio occasionally when I'm driving or doing busy work. I avoid 700 WLW and 102.7 WEBN on game days SOLELY because of Dave Lapham.
He sounds like a goddamn chimp with his beanbag caught in a vice when he's "calling" games. I don't even think that most Bengals fans like him either.

I’m not gonna lie. If the bungles lose on a Sunday, or better yet lose to my brownies on a Sunday, I can listen to WLW all afternoon. The sound of those flowing tears is music to my ears. See, as others have alluded to, I also live right in the center of bungle land. My hatred for that team and it’s fan base is profound. To me Dave Lapham is EVERY bungles fan and EVERY bungles fan is Dave Lapham. They all belong to it, no exceptions.
Did anyone one else see his awesome “victor with jerk” post game segment after Randall and 6 clowned Hue Jackson last year? It was amazing, you can literally feel him starting to tear up. Like a big fat playground bully that isn’t used to someone kicking his ass.
This is new team with a killer instinct. Put your foot on the throat and mock them about it until they quit squirming. I absolutely love it.

Not sure l caught the segment you mentioned but l listen to my fair share of WLW to and from work (their traffic reports have saved me from being late a few times) and they interview Lapham frequently during the season. Last year was the downest l think l’ve ever heard him when talking about the Bengals, especially towards the end of the season. The pauses he would take before answering a question, the occasional sigh. You could hear his disappointment through the radio.
And Bengals fans really are the worst. I have many in friends and family. They’re the most uppity and annoying bunch when they are going good, and then yeah, disappear into a hole when they start going bad. It’s not even fun to razz them when they’re sucking. It feels like kicking a cripple.

I’m at work so I haven’t listened to it, but I’m pretty sure this is it. Again, fuck Dave Lapham and all that he stands for. My Browns are not a team you can make excuses for. Especially since we all know the bungles history of having “class.” I’m sure he was just distraught when that rapist Jeremy Hill jumped into the dawg pound. I’d love to hear his opinion on all the class Ochostinko displayed over the years.

It was pretty amusing running through the long Twitter thread. Lapham got duly called out over the Browns showing no class in that game, When they had thugs like Packman and Burfect on their roster. And now it will all be better that we've cleaned up our act. We'll see about that.
Your thugs probably cost you a playoff win against the Steelers short attention span Dave.
But getting back to the original Bungle fans delusions- they're not looking in the mirror- if the criticisms they're leveling against the Browns are fully in force on the banks of the Ohio. Rookie HC, new offensive system, defensive backfield a mess....

Others that I have when out to eat include Dos Equis and Abita. The latter is brewed in Louisiana and is really growing fast.
Another Abita I just "found" is "Andygator". Local cajun place was out of Amber so I tried it and it was really, really good.
And, yes, Cinci chili is an abomination that is not to be taken internally.
Both Abitas are available at Total Wine in Austin (Lakeline). Which do you like best?

The Andygator... totally different depth of flavor... but a pair with a meal brew, IMO.
Tour- regarding yen-ling that Chinese beer they make in Pennsylvania. I fail to see much difference between it and a bunch of the other national brands. I tried it several times when it first became available in Ohio- and I haven't gone back. I just finished a Great Lakes Dortmunder, and that's much more to my liking- even with the price premium. Dos Equis is my go to brand when I'm doing Mexican. Just no to Corona- which is South of the Border Budweiser.
I think I've mentioned it before- MHO is when Coors went national, something changed. Early 70s, I could pick out Coors from a lineup of 5-6 other brews without fail, won a lot of money doing so too. Not anymore. Who knows? At my advanced age, maybe my nose is shot.
Ah.... the "Coors' Mystique". Really not sure anything changed other than the fact that you could finally get "the banquet beer". It was available in Texas long before it was in Ohio. Time was when I took vaca's to CLE I toted Coors to Dad and he, the pre-expansion Stroh's (a/k/a mothers' milk) to me.
As for Yuengleng... it's just a nice "everyday driver"... smooth enough to drink solo... hefty enough to stand up to a variety of spicy foods with which I prefer a brew over the grape.

Too late. I found them both and bought the Abita Amber. It's fine. Next time I'll get the other.

I'll second the motion on that one Gipper. That sent me on a trip down memory lane of beers that are no more- or were just plain bad. Who can forget Carling Black Label "Hey Mabel, Black Label"? My life probably would have turned out differently if I hadn't gotten rejected when I applied for a lab job at CS Schmidt's brewery. Ah, Heileman's Old Style- fully krausened. As my co worker Ralph said, "fully poisoned".
I'm struggling to remember the name of the beer (it was big at the time) I drank in the Adirondacks with a former girlfriend that gave me the worst hangover of my life. Can't remember the name, but after 40 years, the memory of that one lingers on.
EDIT: It came to me- that beer was Schaefer. "The one beer to have when you're having more than one". More like the one beer to have when the next day your head feels like it's been whacked a few good ones with a baseball bat, and then is about ready to explode.
