Kitsune,
It's not the beer, it's not even the friends, it's the area- Beaverton?? WTF??! That plastic, soulless yuppified wasteland. EEeuuuwwww!
No wonder you are getting #$%* about PBR.
Come on over to the Eastside where Pabst is a religion. Served at our finer establishments. Used at christenings, bar mitzvahs, and the occasional bachelor party. Every Wednesday night the First Unitarian church of Elvis holds their bingo and PBR social.
Now, that being said. Starting out with a Belgian wheat is a pretty big jump. Kinda like taking your driving test on the Indy 500. Try a Mirror Pond or a Fat Tire.
And as for the rest of you Philistines......
Portland Oregon is the Micro Brew capitol of the WORLD!
We have beer that will give you the power to bend spoons with your mind.
Beer that will make you irresistible to women. Beer that will give you the ability to understand the lyrics to Louie Louie. Beer that will give you the ability to see four minutes into the future. Beer that will give you the power to make that impossible bank shot EVERY.....SINGLE.....TIME.
Y'all just don't know whatcha missing!
