Title: Colorado?
Post by: Bjorn on March 10, 2007, 06:55:50 AM
I\'m going to Boulder, Colorado for work. But I plan to have one weekend free there to see some stuff and maybe taste some watery amercian beer.

Any recommendations?

Anyone living nearby?

Possession of pot is legal there. You can try that.

When I visited my buddies in Denver, the change in elevation wreaked havoc on my stomach, I had tons of gas and had to take monster sh!ts.  Get some Gas-X at the local pharmacy there if you feel it coming on ;>

As for your destination.. Colorado is all about the country, just experience Midwest Americana & good clean air at its finest :)  You\'ll want to have a big mem card for your digicam if you go hiking.  Check out Tripadvisor\'s (http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g33324-Activities-Boulder_Colorado.html) take on the attractions nearby.

edit- it seems Denver is a mere 30 miles away.  Check that place out if you want more culture and cityscape

If by \'taste better\' you mean \'loaded with trans fat\', then yes. ;)

Wendy\'s ftw. But I love White Castle. They aren\'t all over the states but here in Jersey, there are a few of them and they are amazing. Can\'t eat them too often and they definitely aren\'t good for you but they taste so good when you have the craving for them like I do.

I always drink Fat Tire when I am out west.

fat tire is good, but if you can get your hands on Moose Drool, that\'s pretty tasty.  Also Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is a nice change from what most are used to.

Actually the microbrew scene is pretty big out west, not much watery beer there....just avoid Coors & Budweiser

I love beer dude. But microbrews aren\'t big here in Jersey and that annoys me. I\'d love to try the lesser known companies. I bet their beer is a lot better than the big beers. I know Bud, Coors and them suck in comparison. I try to drink Yeungling and Sam Adams when I can but I want to get better beer than that.

I hate that law. If you buy beer in one state and move it into another for personal use, that is your business.

yuengling=rolling rock sorta the same...

try rogue\'s "arrogant bastard" or "dead guy ale"...or take a beer trip to Buffalo and try Flying Bison\'s many brews: c130 hercules, dawn patrol, aviator red, blackbird oatmeal stout, or Scotch ale. Or try Southern Tier IPA or winter warmer. those beers will knock you on your ass. http://www.flyingbisonbrewing.com

So basically she wanted some hot chocolate before she headed back to Sweden ;) You should be proud. She probably bragged about you for weeks to her friends :)

^^^heh let\'s do the math....i only drink corona and shots of tequila when i go out, so when we were at the hotel i was still kinda buzzed, and we all know that alcohol can keep you long and strong for awhile...so add that plus some stiff backshots, i think i represented the u.s. well!  :fro:...i actually smashed the poononie twice that morining.

i wonder when bjorn is comin\' over here?...i\'d tell him to hold off a minute because lately there\'s been an outbreak of tornadoes in the midwest...just the other day there were a total of 63 tornadoes that touched down in that part(midwest) of the country..:eek:...i saw some videos and trust it\'s scary how tornadoes just toss cars and trucks around like they\'re paper....i saw a tornado go over a brick house and it just sucked  up the house into it\'s funnel and started spinning all of the bricks and debris around...scary s**t.
