Also, be very careful when abbreviating the term... Could potentially alter your weekend plans, if in the wrong company.

**WestButteTruck** · 10-03-2014, 06:28 PM

Here is mine. Brewed in Missoula, MT.

Hey man, this is hard work...gotta stay hydrated. Need a smoke with that? (I work in a cigar lounge). I'm often tinkering on the truck before or after work in the parking lot. Got some new belts to put on Monday before my shift now that I know I have a '72 350 in my '71 GMC with a long water pump (belt sizes from a '73 look like they'll work a little better than the guess work that's on there now).

I'll have Oktoberfest on tap here in the mancave soon. There are always half kegs that don't sell and you can get them for $50...it's crazy cheap! If you like a hoppier beer try Yuengling Lord Chesterfield Ale sometime. Not super hoppy but it's their hoppiest. I'm not a hops guy.

Wizo · 10-03-2014, 08:33 PM

Ok folks, I can clearly see that part of this thread is taking a slight left turn. But thats ok

I'm with you on that one. My garage fridge is inhabited heavily with Yuengling. I think I have to keep my garage door closed now since my neighbor saw my stash.

Sillyoldman · 10-04-2014, 11:24 AM

Because it's a big deal when I accomplish something.

Keith Seymore · 10-04-2014, 11:37 AM

You are correct: it's not what I thought it was going to be.
