An aside...

I'm aware it's out there.

I don't get it honestly.

I mean I remember being younger and drinking whatever just to drink.
Was it a good idea? No.
Did it do what I intended? Yes.
My choices were limited back then really.
I drank a lot of Pabst before there were hipsters.
I drank a fair amount of Haffenreffer Private Stock when I was poor (oddly enough a Pabst product until recently.)
And then there was the Budweiser...

Eventually I smartened up with Blithering Idiots, Hop Wallops and Aecht Schlenkerlas.
(Which reminds me of a story for another time...)

But now there's this stuff...
















Admittedly I've never even tasted it.
I don't think I will either.
I got this can as a gift.

Those of you who know me know that my nickname going on 15 years now is "Joose."
It's been spelled that way the whole time too.
Kind of too bad for me that there's something marketed with that name.
Especially something that is generally antithetical to what I think about beer.
A funny coincidence none the less.

  1. Flavored malt beverage with caffeine and tuarine? What the hell? Who makes this blasphemous beverage with your name on it?! Unfortunate to say the least.
