I'm sure Vegas is an incredible scene in the run-up to the Super Bowl.Vegas is an event city. It’s what keeps this place air conditioned. Luckily I live and work far enough away from the action that it doesn’t really affect my daily life. There was a ton of OT available for the weekend, however, I opted to sit this one out.South of Columbus, Ohio. -

But I had a good laugh at your parting line mentioning “mid-strength beer”. I am just wondering what ABV qualifies as “mid-strength” in your estimation?
Craft beer in the US has moved over the past decade to double and even triple IPAs, with ABVs north of ten percent. I have the waistline to prove it. @Foghorn’s beloved Curieux is just over ten.
Now of course I also know that the Europeans were on this game many moons ago, and that while Americans are really just discovering these glories, the Belgians in particular have been there and done that. But then I also recall you mentioning some low-calorie Guinness beer you’d become fond of, and so I am genuinely curious where you fall on the strength preference line.
I know that’s a very long response to your parting shot, but it is Friday, and at least I didn’t say anything about your roof.
To the matters at hand,
yes - those crazy Belgies have been bang at it for years with their mad double digit % beers. I suspect it's a ruse to drain foolish youths of their cash whilst 'on tour'. I find those invariably syrupy, but perhaps I'm a a Philistine after all?
Over here the traditional bench mark for 'strong' is 5%, amongst mainstream beers. That's where Stella Artois sits, and that is the reference beer for booze fuelled bozos. I like it, but then again I do prefer a handful of 3.5% beers when I have a thirst on.
0% Guiness is a revelation, the calorie count is slightly lower - but it's Guiness, so it's like four rather than 5 sugars in your coffee.
I am now full abroad the 0% beer bus, on school nights. I like a cold beer and I am unkeen on drinking every night because it makes me miserable.
Also, yours is not a long response - I refer you to my post you replied to. 👍
I am a fan of Guinness in general but have yet to try the zero. My father switched to na beers some time ago and I will have one on occasion. We have come a long way with making na beer here in the US. On the calorie front, years ago I recall an underground ad campaign of sorts by Guinness where they were trying to convince unsuspecting Yanks that there aren’t actually that many calories in a pint of their stout. The campaign explained to people that a pint of Guinness had fewer calories than a pint of orange juice. So, how bad can it really be? That seemed to be the logic. Just don’t bother looking to see just how many calories are in an entire pint of orange juice…nothing to see here, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike -
Cleaned out the Egg yesterday, it’s been awhile. While finishing the clean out this morning, I noticed my first crack in the firebox. It still has a lot of life in her. Pre-smoking tomorrow’s dinner of pulled pork.

@lkapigian - I'm sure you don't get any credit for the spread. But within the fanatic food community I am sure you are held in the highest regard (or at least the restaurant patrons...). 🌮😎

What a great game. Feel bad for Moody, he is an amazing kicker, but I suspect he will be replaying that extra point for a while.

Cold bending trials for Hess Black Pearl SCR’s.
Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
Status- Standing by.
The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
Just read about the passing, at age 94, of Bob Moore company founder of Bob's Red Mill. Good guy, good company, good products. I've bought a lot of their products over the years. RIP Bob!

Then the Chiefs just keep grinding and capitalizing on mistakes in the 2nd half. The kick was low and the line did its job. He will be replaying that for a while.
Heck, I still replay a handball call on me from soccer in 2nd grade that cost us a chance to move on in the tournament. (It was a good call too, I f’d up)Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL
