Heh, spoken like an amateur. You obviously have never been a serious session drinker. We all love the microbrews, but the real drinkers that are putting in the hours need a beer that is less filling.

Re: Fucking Millennials - Another disappointment
There are plenty of great 'session' beers available these days that don't base their claim to fame on the shape of their can or their celebrity endorsement, they actually have flavor.steveschneider wrote:Cameron wrote:

All Day IPA is one Michigan based example that is infinitely better than Lite anything.
Many microbrews have now recognized the market and are addressing it, but then again, if you don't actually like beer, Lite is a great choice

I love All Day IPA, but it is 50 more calories than light beer. I definitely prefer the All Day IPA but if you are in a serious drinking session a light beer is also a viable option.

I like Griffin Claw Gateway IPA better than All Day. It's also about 25 fewer calories than All Day.steveschneider wrote:I love All Day IPA, but it is 50 more calories than light beer.

Thanks, Pantry. I will check it out. Founders makes great stuff but I’m always into checking out new beer.

Re: Fucking Millennials - Another disappointment
I used to be a light beer and count the calories in beer guy. No longer. If I have to worry about how many calories a beer has, I probably shouldn't be drinking beer. Fuck sessions and light beers. Including All Day IPA. It's not an IPA in my book. If I'm going to drink an IPA, I'm going to drink a full bodied hoppy as fuck IPA (Dripa, Two Hearted, etc.). I'm not going to compromise taste for calories.
If I'm feeling a little chunky or haven't hit the gym, I just won't drink beer.

This guy gets it. I'd rather drink water than light beer. Catch pretty much the same buzz, actually...

Greek Drinking Symposiums -
"Symposion is Greek for "drinking together"—reclining on couches and enjoying the famous triad of "wine, women and song." The ancient Greeks adapted rituals of communal drinking from the Near East, but they turned them into a style of life: this was euphrosyne (bliss), the highest form of pleasure, and the focus of aristocratic Greek art and culture."
Click on the link at look at the picture in the link "This red-figure volute krater from the 5th century B.C.E. would have been used to mix wine and water at a symposion."
Watering down, or going lighter in your drink is nothing new and is a viable strategy dating back centuries ago and adopted by some of the best drunks to ever walk this planet.

That would be me dwags. And the people you classified at a party you were at as not millennials (but actually probably are.) We’ve kinda talked about this before though, as there is some bleeding effect when you try to categorize generations. What’s really the difference between a boomer born in 1963 and a gen xer born in 1964? (None really. They’re both worthless fucking asshole boomers.)DWags wrote:Have we talked about these guys in here yet? Scroll down to get an explanation

Re: Fucking Millennials - Another disappointment
That article is pretty disingenuous dwags. If you include the probablys in with the definitelys (like it does when it talks about the percentages that won’t vote) then you’re looking at 57%. 57% would not only greatly exceed traditional young people voting rates, which is around 20%, it would exceed the historical turnout rate for midterms for the entire country (40%) and approach the turnout rate for the entire country for presidential elections (60%)
The whole article is “record turnout, not so fast” without actually talking about historical turnout. Why? Because even just the “definitelys” would in fact be record turnout for a midterm, and significantly at that. I mean, look at these rates below then re read that article. Based on the numbers provided, is there a situation where you can imagine that young people turnout would be anything other then a record for a midterm, and probably a record for even presidential years for young people?
That was a very bad take bro.

I certainly hope you're right. I'm sure there are a shit ton of people who won't vote from every age group, but will bitch about the results. I have a feeling though, that these midterms will have record number of voters turning out. From both sides and all ages. Maybe, in the end, it's the best thing that Trump has ever done for us as a nation.

Now, what will be interesting but can’t really be determined until after the fact is the millennial vote as a percentage of the total electorate. You’re right, every group is going to vote more than they usually do. So, the question really is “are millennials going to increase their voting rates more than the other groups?” That question really can’t be answered yet.

I don't know many Millenials doing that. Sure are a lot of 50-60 somethings doing it though.

You act like that is a bad thing. You realize many of them are complete idiots, right?
I was attempting to talk to one of my kid's friends this weekend. College sophomore. Didn't know "which one of them was good and which one was bad" in regards to political parties. Had no idea what either one stood for or has done... like ever. I ended the conversation with "Dude, you REALLY should take a poly sci 101 as an elective."
