Ok, so I’m in Aldi (a discount supermarket. I LOVE discounts! :mrgreen: ) and I see this beer. I’m looking it over and a guy says “It’s Aldi’s version of Corona.”. This is Indiana so remember people help you even when you don’t ask for it. I love Corona so for $4.99 a sixer I had to buy it. Anyway… it tastes like a soda to me, but it’s different and not bad. Not Corona though…

I was detailing the Kia earlier today and my neighbor brought me over a Hamm's Special Light. They sell for $9.99 a 30 pack. :shock: To be honest, I've had worse. :lol:

Does Thumb even realize this is an r/c car site?? Not really, but it's the only site I visit anymore so y'all get the brunt of it. Quiet tonight on the board anyway so here's a video that fits this thread quite nicely. 8) Some babes too. :mrgreen:

I tend to drink coors light. A buddy got me stuck on it a few years back. I buy the 1.5 gallon fridge kegs. They last me a long friggin time. I don't drink that much.

Extremely cool shot of the glasses, how did you pull that off?

I came home to a Kokanee Gold, well maybe a few of them tonight.

Topping off a lipo and heading outside for a quick rip, taking my beer with me. In a chilled mug of course.

Thanks, I will give that a read.

Had one of these tonight, the last time I tried it was last summer. Quite a good taste to it.

Hahaha!! They bottle it at 6.6%, kind of strong for my tastes.

Not to bad really if you have one, Two might be pushing it. The caramel and vanilla notes really shine, tasty for sure.
