Similar thing here, ToE.

Since we've moved to Texas we've found a lot of great local breweries. Shiner isn't one of them and this stuff is completely undrinkable and went down the sink.

I bought it hoping it would be like the excellent Young's Double Chocolate Stout. No such luck!

Same reasoning here. Fortunately, I happen to have a Young's DCS sitting right next to me. Unfortunately, I only have the one. It has always been my understanding that Shiner makes crap. From experience, I would rather have one than drink one, it's less painful.

Yes, Shiner is pretty much the beer of last resort. You're probably right that getting a shiner would be less painful.

I cannot fault you for trying as so would I. How could one not be curious about something labelled "Birthday Beer Chocolate Stout?" Although I would agree with you on it being a beer of last resort, I am pretty sure that powers will argue that label belongs to PBR.

You mean beer of not resort. I was reading my latest Whiskey Advocate and Lew Bryson mentions how the Boiler Maker is making a comeback. My favorite line: "it came out of ****ed-out dive bars into the trendier places, carried by hipsters and artists and mutated as it spread." :p A can of PBR and a shot of Jim Beam. :puke: He mentions that doing such would not be respecting the whiskey but with that combination, bad twice doesn't say much. :p
The Sly Fox Pilsner and Heaven Hill combination mentioned doesn't seem like the horror story that the previous combination is though. :p
