holzy44: Some beers don't travel well. Maybe Urquell is one of them? However, I've got to say that I've never seen canned Urquell in Canada. Plenty of bottles, but never cans. Of course, canned beer usually tastes tinny and gross, so even if I saw it in cans, I'd probably stick to the bottled variety.
Rogue Dead Guy was my first legal beer at midnight of my 21st. I'm not a big fan of it though. Haven't had the double dead guy.Haha I'm with the others on maximizing the ratio of alcohol to price. Gotta watch drinking those weird beers in a bar that doesn't specialize in them though. I bought a La Fin Du Monde in a Pittsbugh bar a month ago and it was 6 months expired. Not a big deal with those because they are bottle fermented and can keep for a fairly long time, but I didn't take a glass with it and when the bartender opened it and walked away 1/4 of it foamed out onto the bar before I even touched it.

I dunno, I think Keystone is pretty decent for a super cheap beer. Put some lime in it. It's better than Pabst, or Bud lite, or Miller lite.

Yeah, I read his comment backwards. I guess this year's Celebration Ale (Sierra) is getting right on top of me. :P

I didn't see IPA or wheat beers.
