I still had two left in the refrigerator when you and I were on my front porch one night, and I offered to give you half of all the Shiner Bock in town.<BR/><BR/>That would be a heck of an offer now. Actually, it was a pretty good offer Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00372790238744903272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5506451.post-91479336537746281692007-06-29T08:10:00.000-07:002007-06-29T08:10:00.000-07:00There's no Shiner on tap in Billings that I know o...There's no Shiner on tap in Billings that I know of, but we can buy Shiner and Shiner Bock at several Billings stores.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5506451.post-68932525674486576862007-06-28T22:30:00.000-07:002007-06-28T22:30:00.000-07:00I understand that someone sent a bottle of Bud lig...I understand that someone sent a bottle of Bud light to the state ag lab and got back a report: "Your horse has diabetes."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5506451.post-90190567097723024102007-06-28T05:37:00.000-07:002007-06-28T05:37:00.000-07:00No Shiner Bock on tap? or in a bottle?

Can't seem to get my name to come through. I agree with Vince but I do rather like Blue Moon, even if it is cheaper than others. But Guiness, Moose Drool, Pig's Ass Porter, Dragon's Breath and a few other dark brown beers are what I prefer. And David, you and Ed are both cool. And you should stay that way for at least the next two months.

How much can a product be diluted and still retain the label? I look at those "lite" beers as the homeopathic approach to brewing.
