Not sure why the top matters with a dillo in reach...

I've been enjoying Modelo Especial lately. If not that, it's usually Corona.

I concur. Been drinking a decent amount of it out here in Cali, since we couldn't get it in NH, and it is some pretty tasty stuff. Gotta say though, I miss the hell out of Long Trail ale

What I don't get is why doesn't everyone do twist offs. The tech is pretty old already.

Sam Adams is not a twist top.

LOL, anti-beer snobbery is just as annoying, but in worst taste.

Technically Maudite is a twist off... you just have to then yank the cork out.

I got some Shiner Variety Pack cases that were excellent. Kosmos, I think? was the best

Ironically, the Shiner Bock was the worst of the bunch. Had a distinctive bleach taste?

WTF is wrong with you TX guys? I had to get another 3 cases just to be sure. Yep, still there, but drinkable.
