I like beer, but it fills me up to quick so 2 beers is about my max as far as liquid consumption foes. If I drink 2 Hop Nosh IPA's (my current favorite) at 7.2% I get a nice small buzz and its all good. If I have to drink 3 or 4 I feel like a bloated cow.

I have the same problem (beer fills me up too quick so I can't drink alot of them)

That's why I take shots of bourbon whiskey and chase it with beer and drink beers between the shots

This may have answered my question.

So in utah a bud light is 4% and a budweiser is also 4%
But in idaho the difference in alcohol between those two beers would likely be greater right?

Out of state budweiser is 5%abv

I use this site to check if it's not on the label https://www.realbeer.com/edu/health/calories.php

Fun fact, Guinness is 4%abv in and out of Utah. It has the same starting and finishing gravity (how you measure abv and also how you determine the "body" of the beer) as Bud Light. Really the only thing that sets Guinness apart from Bud Light is the color and roasted flavor that comes from Black Patent. Other than that it's just as thin, just as dry and just as weak as Bud Light.

Damn, couldn't find shock top on that list.

Hey gameface, im going to the bar tonight to watch the jazz game (The Puck).
Do bars generally sell beers higher than 4% found at gas stations/grocery stores? Do you have a recommendation for what beer I should order if I want high alcohol content? Maybe a sam adams or something? Or does the alcohol content have to be lowered to 4% even in bars because its Utah?

In Utah if a beer is sold in stores or gas stations it cannot be sold anywhere else in Utah at a higher abv.

When I go to a bar I like to order Hop Rising, a 9%abv double IPA. It is very hoppy (bitter) though, so if you don't like that it's probably not for you. Dopple Bock is I think 8%abv, but it is a darker beer, although not dark because of a roasted barley flavor but more of a caramel flavor.
 
My pet peeve is when people hijack a perfectly good thread to talk about abv in beer. Freaking alcoholics.;)
 
"like, um, yeah... ya know?"


I recently spent a few hours with a friend I don't see very often who uses that phrase WAY TOO MUCH. Sometimes I have to work too damn hard to figure out what she's saying. Then I realize why I don't make more of an effort to see her more often.
 
No stick pans. I cook a couple eggs every morning....wash the pan....looks totally spotless....put it away. Then I pull it out the next morning and it always looks like a bird crapped in it overnight.
 
People who play Buckner but don't understand Buckner. It's supposed to be people we'd rather have on the Jazz than Buckner, not any word that comes to mind. Might have to start negging Buckner violators to get things under control.
 
I hate it when I'm in week eight of the semester and my Anthropology teacher hasn't graded a single assignment, won't return any emails, does pointless, ********, boring powerpoint presentations every week that have ZERO point, because she doesn't test on anything we do in class. She didn't tell us this until AFTER our first test, which everyone bombed because they studied her lame *** power point garbage.

Seriously, F the Po Leece.
 
I have straight A's except for that class, which I'm sitting in right now, and I'm pulling down a whopping 45%.

Intro class, which is easy enough, just as long as you know what the **** you're supposed to be studying.

Intro is a pain if you have no interest in the subject. It's essentially concepts and terminology and a very rudimentary introduction to the four disciplines. I think professors hate teaching it since it's boring and trivial for them.

I was most excited for this class at the beginning of the semester, and I'm bent that my teacher is ruining the experience for me -- at least, in my opinion. She's an adjunct and the only teacher in the university that teaches the subject. Come to find out, she's a sociology teacher who just took the job because they needed someone. She taught us the other day that the dinosaurs died out because of a comet that hit the Earth.
 
Sociology =/= Anthropology, even if the studies are within the same department.

Have any questions, ask. Only have a Bachelor's but I was a student for Intro my senior year, so I have an idea of student's problems in Intro (and the Intro class I was an SI in was also with an adjunct professor, but her problem was her hard to understand accent, not seeming indifference).
