The Beer Thread

[shoop]

I tried a couple of ciders about 10 years ago and didn't really enjoy them. Haven't had any since.

Maybe I'll give ciders another try to see if it was just the brand and flavor that I didn't like.

It’s possible. I don’t really care for Redd’s but Cider Boys is good and angry orchard is decent. Try draft first way better than bottled.

Oklahoma had a similar law for a while. I believe it was recently changed.

IIRC, for the longest only beer with something like a 3% ABV could be sold in stores. You had to go to a bar to get beer that had a normal/higher ABV.

Well that sounds backwards ass.

IKR.

Common sense says sell the stronger stuff in stores so more people will drink it at home and stay off the roads. But Oklahoma was like, nah....

Those places also sell ice.

You can buy real beer here now but you can not buy cold beer in a liquor store

Laws like that make zero sense.

Took me a sec. K.

They are usually made by Evangelical hypocrites.

They are usually made by Evangelical hypocrites.

Worse than that, they are usually by Evangelical hypocrites from 150 years ago, and the politicians of today are too afraid to change it.

They aren't afraid to stomp on our freedoms or waste our tax dollars, but they're afraid of that.

Edit: shit, I see you guys are talking about a new law. I should have read the whole thread.

Anyway...

I will therefore blame the Atlanta Braves for this idiocy. @1bigfan13

As an aside, this sort of idiocy is a big reason I haven't gone back to the Republican Party after I left in 2016. This pseudo religious bullshit is a big waste of everyone's time, energy and money, and diminishes freedom for no good reason. This does not represent my interests. It will not achieve it's stated purpose of reducing drunk driving.

These are local silly laws, though. And that bill was just introduced. It will never pass.

Pennsylvania was a state where you couldn't get alcohol outside of a bar, beer distributor or liquor store at all up until the last few years when super markets started figuring out loopholes.

Even now, if I go to a supermarket that sells alcohol, it's in a separate section of the store, I can only purchase it in THAT section not the supermarket at large, and I can only buy up to a certain amount (I forget the exact amount).

It's totally absurd.

Really? That's surprising. We don't even have that in Texas.
