Man, I wish I had a pic of the time I strapped on a 30-roll toilet paper pack onto the back of my beater mtb.

Nah, that's just carryin stuff the way bike-carryin-stuff is designed to carry stuff. I want like a trailer with a washing machine, or a bike towing a bike, or a bike loaded with an 8ft carnival stuffed bear or something.
And I'm guessing that beer is gross.

Yes, tag ur it!
Is that some kind of diy fairing on the front, to make up for the having a non-aerodynamic bike on the back? (I mean if the bike on the back was a Tri bike, you might end up going faster)

Well,
full disclosure, that isn't exactly me on the bike. But I captured it on my own helmet cam.

Picture of beer haulin' was not submitted for tag evaluation but just to help out a comrade in distress over not having a picture of a 30 pack of something.Originally Posted by RubeRad

Old Style was probably equal to any West Coast brew I used to drink back in the late 70's such as Rainer, Lucky Lager or Olympia.
Not submitted for the photo competition but only for your viewing, if not drinking, consideration, two brews I like. Also to stay somewhat thread related is a picture of my bike coming back with a six pack, a box of shoes and assorted other stuff from a shopping trip. Inside the Number 3 lunch bag is an old Pentax K1000 I sometimes carry around when I want to take a picture the old fashioned way.

Interesting. I drank a bit of Yuengling Lager one summer when I was in PA. Didn't know they made a Porter, I'd love to try that. As for the other beer, I expect if I tried it, I'd say

NEW TAG: a picture of you and your bike at Home Depot, or some other reno place, with an oversized item (lumber, insulation, french door, etc) strapped to the bike or in a bike trailer.

Could I be in Reno, hauling a slot machine to a repair shop?
Could I be hauling supplies out of a shop that specializes in renovating those retro neon blinking "(No) Vacancy" signs (shop is named "Re-NO")
How about if my father is Irish and my mother is Dutch and my name is Ren O'Place?
How about if I discovered a long-lost memo about lack of available rooms from the Inn that sent Mary and Joseph to the stables, with a subject line of "Re: No Place"

I always bring back a couple of cases of Yuengling products whenever I visit relatives in Philadelphia. Sometimes Porter, which I have enjoyed since my college days at Penn State over 50 years ago, but usually Traditional Lager.

That's amazing that they've invented an internal stabilizing system that keeps the black and the tan separate. I wonder how they guarantee that they pour separate?

The same way the black and white is kept separate when drinking a black and white milkshake through a straw; you don't! Originally Posted by RubeRad

That picture is amazing, but looking it up, I'd just call that a chocolate milkshake (with some extra chocolate syrup drizzled around). I don't think I've ever made a 'chocolate milkshake' with chocolate ice cream.
Black & Tan though, is a novelty drink that depends critically on the appearance of the two layers. Mix it up, and it's just two beers mixed up.

You misunderstand, there is no need to mix up the Black and Tan, the ingredients are blended before bottling/canning.Originally Posted by RubeRad

As far as black and white being another name for a chocolate milkshake, read the previously posted URL. I speak from experience with a year of after school soda jerking at a real soda fountain almost 60 years ago in Philadelphia.

I was joking. A Real black & tan has the 2nd beer carefully poured in over the back of a spoon to keep the colors separate and look cool. There's nothing special about the flavor of blending black with tan. In fact, since the tan is a lager, and I hate lager, I'll go for a blend of 100% black every time.Originally Posted by I-Like-To-Bike

Seriously, if I wanna eat, I wanna eat, if I want a beer/ale/etc..., I want that and not food.
I usually try to keep to the motto ... if it ain't made via Reinheitsgebot that it usually can **** off and die.

In San Diego, I am a fan of the "West Coast IPA", but need to mix it up with other styles to avoid burnout. The 'New England'/Hazy IPA with its cloudy tarty fruitiness is a refreshing change of pace, but also Porter/Stout, Nut Brown, Amber, Gose. Firestone Walker's 805 is kind of uncategorizable, but good. The biggest-selling beers that I enjoy are Fat Tire and Pyramid Apricot Hefeweizen.
