lol I thought that poppyseeds on muffins and bagels are not high enough in content to be called a drug.


you'd need to eat about a pound of poppy seeds to get a positive reaction.

no way, too easy to get caught with it.
besides, job tests are easy, and they rarely watch you pee, they'll just put blue stuff in the toilet so you can't dilute it.

the stuff i get is powdered urine and a pouch of water you tape to your leg/thigh/butt/crotch to warm the water, then you just mix it in the restroom.

or you can drink the "goo".

That is good to know. Not sure but I think most of the beers I drink are in brown bottles. Isn't Rolling Rock beer in a green bottle? Do the green bottles make the price of the beer any cheaper?

I haven't had a Heineken in years.

I don't drink many beers except when out at restaurants. The last time I was in Japan I had some Asahi Dry with a wonderful sukiyaki dinner. Now that was some good beer.

I have never tried Warsteiner or Newcastle. I did try Jamaican Red Stripe last year and I like that. So from now on brown bottles only! :woot:

I think if you like Lager beer, Warsteiner is a very good choice if you can find some... it's pricy though... i think it's what Budweiser should taste like.

czech beer is the best beer i've had.

I found this. Which one is your fave kenjilina?

Purity Laws

Czech beer is brewed under laws similar to the famous German purity laws - the only ingredients permitted are hops, yeast, malt and water. This results in a deliciously pure product, which knocks the socks off the bathwater we brew over here. Of course, there are inevitable consequences - the Czech Republic has the highest per capita annual beer consumption in the world (around 159 litres!)

In fact, it is estimated that 20% of the population are registered alcoholics - still, I imagine their hangovers are a little less painful that those suffered by lager gulpers in this country!

Pilsner

The most common type of Czech beer is the lager (from the German "to store") or pilsner (named after the Czech town Plzen). This is a bottom-fermented beer - the yeast sinks to the bottom of the fermentation container during production, and the process takes place at a fairly low temperature.

The increased production period ensures that the final product is smoother and fresher. Additionally, the combination of Bohemian hops (considered by many to be the best in the world) and crystal clear water results in a much softer flavour than many German beers (which can taste bone dry), with a very clean aftertaste.

Brands

The original Czech lager is Pilsner Urquell (www.prazdroj.cz) (meaning "original source" in German). Brewed in Plzen it is a deep golden colour, and a full and rich malt taste. Balanced, flavourful and very stylish.

Next comes Staropramen (www.staropramen.co.uk), which has been available in increasing quantities over the last few years. It too has a deep golden colour, and is medium bodied. Slightly yeasty, it has a reputation for being characterful and classic.

Budweiser Budvar (www.budvar.cz) is produced in the charming little town of Budweis, and is famous for sharing a name with one of America's best known and least flavoursome exports. Available in most decent bars across the capital, it is lighter than most Czech beers, and its slightly spicy, citrus edge (less soft than the others) makes it unique.

Kozel (meaning "goat" in Czech!) Premium ( www.beer-kozel.cz) is less common over here, but is gaining a bit of a reputation nonetheless. It is a dark lager, and is often praised for its moderate bitterness and astringency, and smooth, complex aftertaste.
