I would laugh at myself if I was told ten years ago I would assert this belief but these days i also find that good beer is best enjoyed in moderation. :cheers2:
It's amazing how craft beer has just exploded over the last 10 years, at least here in the states. Is it the same way over in the Netherlands? I mean, in that part of the world good beer is something that has been popular for a long time. It seems like here in the US, people are just beginning to catch on.
I didn't really notice it but yeah, here craft beers were always around. Especially from our mayonaise loving neighbours on the south! :biggrin: But we are still the most big on plain lager beers or so it seems. The main difference I am noticing compared to let's say 15 years ago is how much more people drink wine here compared to beer. Also more fruity beers and rosé kinds of wine. Everybody is drinking 'bubbles' everywhere now. I don't get it
according to tigerdile its always friday somewhere. no. i'm not sure i follow that logic either. but its what i just read.

^ That video is so old school. That was back in the days when at least some things were still cool, including New York City.
I go drink with Friday regulars at the bier halls. =p Well every second Friday to coincide with their pay weeks. If I don't do this I just stay indoors and rest up for Saturday nights.
when the hell was new york city EVER "cool"? there have been times when defferent parts of it enjoyed verying degrees of coolness perhaps, but as a whole, i really fail to see the 'coolness' of cities in their entirity. every city needs a hundred times the resources it contains, just to keep the people in it fed, even to produce the air for them to breathe. there are only three or four things 'cool' about any city; public transportation, odd little resteraunts, university engineering libraries, and i will have to admit, slightly greater odds of meeting people who happen to share whatever one's own unique interests might happen to be. but there really isn't the way to live as your body and mind evolved for you to do so. maybe cool to visit, for all the different kinds of shops and museums and stuff like that. if your broke in a city, people think there's something wrong with you. if your broke out in nature, the plants and the animals and the air really don't know or care anything about that. to me, excitement is mostly just people pretending to enjoy anxiety.
you just named a list of reasons why a city is cool. The only negative was that it isnt self sustainable....farms and ranches...BOOM! Problem solved.
