Actually, I can't drink much; my youthful days of tying one on are far behind me, thankfully.

Congrats on the weight loss, assuming it's a good thing.
I hear you. I was never a big drinker to begin with. But now I don't like to have more than a few drinks when going out since anymore and I don't get that deep sleep at night, even if I spread it out over several hours. : \

I grew up in Kansas and 3.2 beer was all they sold. My folks liked a cold beer on hot summer nights. I had a sip or two as well. It's ok. I don't drink because of health reasons. I would if I could. Watch out for those Baptists you see in the liquor stores!

Lightweights!!
I used to start out with a six pack of tall buds. I also liked Michelob Light so I could raise my pinkie when drinking in a bar. When the sun starts to come up, its time to go to bed. Ahh, the good ol' days.
If someone didn't tell you it was 3.2 would you even know the difference?

YES! I can tell the difference in one sip. 3.2 tastes like water to me, and I don't drink that much anymore.. My favorite cheap beer down here in Tejas is Keystone. Shiner Bock is not cheap but it is a really good beer. I also like Corona, and Sam Adams, and and and.. Beer and pizza go very good together. Beer and Pepperoni pizza = yum.

I agree, I'd be able to tell the diff., too, but maybe not in 1 sip.
Re: pizza and beer, did you hear about some guy who invented beer that tastes like pizza? Here's an article of it.

The thing is, if you are talking about the big name, highly advertised labels, it ALL tastes watered down. Give me a good bock, some Choc, Harps, or a European ale, stout, or pilsner, but you can keep your Coollerweiser lite ice........I was going to say "Put it back in the horse" but it lacks the character for even that.

I know! I like milk and I like juice, but I don't think I'd like them together.  But if that Chicago pizza beer is rolled out across the country, curiosity will probably get the best of me and I'll give it a shot.
