You missed one?!?

The hints didn't really help me that much, just confirmed for me before I clicked.

I guess it's a reflection of wasted youth.

Or, just wasted.

I didn't drink them there imported beer when I was young. Heck, we thought Coors was "fancy beer". :)

It is. Made from bear piss. :gomer:

14/15. Grew up with my grandfather as a GM of a local beer distributor who used to travel to beer conferences and bring back exotic cans (@ the time). I had a huge can collection that got tossed when we moved ~15 years ago (I'll never forgive my wife for that). I was the only kid in elementary school with a beer can pyramid in his bedroom. :D

This brings to mind a current "crisis" that is going on within my wife's family. Her 20 year old nephew was recently caught with some beer and the family is portraying him like a raging alcoholic and wants him to get help etc. My wife was explaining this to me just yesterday and ended by saying something about how concerned she is etc. I said "wait a second...he's 20 years old for goodness sake, almost 21!!! I was legally drinking in Georgetown bars when I was 17 years old!!! Hell, my dad always finished a day working in the yard, or building a fence, or a deck etc by throwing me a beer or two when I was even younger!". To each their own I guess. With our daughter, we've taken more of the European, open policy attitude and I can't get her to drink at all!! Go figure.:)

My parents allowed me pretty free reign, with the understanding that I don't go out driving or get falling-down, vomiting hammered.

...and I turned out just (hic) fine! :latenightdrunkls: :gomer:

I just blame my drinking on my wife. That's always good for a exaggerated rolling of the eyes from her. :cool:

I decided to do this for fun because I don't drink beer more than a few times a YEAR. Got 11. Not too bad for a less than novice. At least I got MILLER right, as it was my maiden name. :laugh:

Shrohs

I was weened on Stroh's. It was actually a good beer until they sold out in the 80s and moved the brewery to Milwaukee from Detroit. :saywhat: It was a darker beer and actually had flavor compared to Bud, Miller, PBR, etc. of the time.

fun quiz, in which I aced!

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference

15/15.

But I'm a professional (retired now :)).

Wouldn't let me do the cocktail one though.
