What beer were you drinking in 2001?

Well I was 11 so I'd hope I wasn't drinking yet but I am drinking a cold Stella Artois as I type this. Cheers

 

Root beer.

 

Milwaukee's Best Ice

I have fond memories of the Beast!

 

I was 7, so probably ice house.

 

I was in college and on a tight budget. Saranac lager was a frequent visitor to the mini fridge because cases were cheap and it was tasty compared to BMC offerings of similar price. Also, the bar across the street served it by the pitcher for a buck during happy hour along with nickel a piece wings.

 

I was only 19 at the time, so Icehouse.

 

Pyramid Hef after work back then

 

Sierra Nevada Pale

 

Bell's Two Hearted poured from a hand-pulled beer engine. Awesome then, still awesome now.

 

Red Dog

 

I was 11.. I preferred the taste of a cold Mexican coke in those years.

 

Root, Ginger, and Birch.

 

My girlfriend (now wife) and I spent the day watching the news and drinking from a 12-pack of Amstel Light.

 

I was 7 or 8 lol but growing up in CT foxon park birch beer was my shit.

 

I turned 21 in 2001 and 9/11 marked the beginning of my senior year in college. I remember that morning very clearly.

I was mostly drinking Bud Light, along with Rolling Rock and Honey Brown (I think?) when we would go to the campus bar. There were also lots of kegs and pitchers with unknown beer-like contents. This was also the year that I started drinking Sam Adams.

 

MGD way back then.

 

I was living in GR, Michigan at the time and my favorite place in town was shockingly not Founders but rather Grand Rapids Brewing. They had a killer ESB that I couldn't keep my hands off of. I was also doing ANG time down in Battle Creek, so Arcadia became my once a month weekend beer fun place to be.

 

At 24 I was drinking Pilsner Urquell, Guinness and the occasional Sierra Nevada Pale. Sierra Nevada wasn't really on tap everywhere and I mostly only drank beer at the bar as I normally had wine at home or at a restaurant. Back then people would comment on how I liked fancy beers. Hmmm.
To the OP...I went to watch my friend play at The Cake Shop a few weeks ago. They had two categories of beer. Craft and then just Beer. Seirra Nevada was under Beer. How times have changed.

 

Red Stripe and Carona? I was in college, what was in bottles back then was easily "better" than cans.

I do remember trying some Sam Adams IPA that maybe had a yellowish label on it, and thinking I could never get through more than 2 of them. My times have changed.
