    Well this one really saddens me. I love zombie dust and bought cases of it and loved every drop. A couple weeks ago I picked up my first case of it for the first time in like 6 months, so I had my first one in quite a long time then. Every single one I have makes me feel sick or uneasy for some reason. Just seems to be zombie dust. So its my worst beer experience because I dont think Ill ever want to drink the beer I once thought was the greatest thing ever

    Edit: and its weird, I still love the taste, so its not like a take a sip and want to throw up. No I drink it, tastes great, but then get a badly upset stomach EVERY time I have ONE and even if I have just ONE. Idk so weird

    Did you maybe catch a bout of stomach flu or other nausea after having one the first time? I got the stomach flu once after having some pesto, and now the smell of it alone makes my stomach churn. Every seperate ingredient of it isn't a problem, but combined they make me want to puke.

    Worst beer experience was when I dropped a 4 pack of 90 minute IPA on my garage floor and 2 bottles popped.

    how is that your worst experience? Sounds like you had an awesome night and cool bartender; really cool actually. don't worry, that story you just told is far better than westy 12.

    I've done this a few times and never puked, nor have I seen anyone puke from it. I think the beer I used for it was Heineken, other times Amstel Light. I also used to funnel beers. Although back then I could drink. Binge drinking sure was fun I must admit. While I still drink equally for both taste AND feel/buzz factor, I've calmed down quite a bit. Also, doing power hour or funneling Eye of The Hawk would send me to hell for that evening :astonished:

    Was at a Stone Brewery Anniversary party at Cal State San Marcos (2nd session) and me and a fellow BA were staying over at the sheraton by legoland. We started with several beers at the hotel pool in the morning, then headed to Pizza Port for pitchers and beers before the event. Our wives didn't need all their 10 tickets so we each had about 15 to use and then headed to a nice dinner. Although, the four of us became two of us and the two of us, and the two of us was choking back high class vomit the whole time.

    My buddy and I once, while already completely obliterated, decided it would be a good idea to do power-hour with a jug of Carlo Rossi. We stopped after 12 minutes.

    My worst drinking experience is pretty much everything that happened to me from age 16-20. Luckily by the time I was legal, I started to get the idea of quality over quantity.

    In college my roommate's brother came to our apartment to hang out and tie one on. We offered to go buy him beer since he was like 19 at the time and he only asked for a 6 pack of Bud Select or some crap like that. We told him that wouldn't be enough but he insisted. Well guess what, it wasn't enough and we refused to give him any of our beer until he polished off the jug of Carlo Rossi that lived above the fridge as punishment. I give him credit...there was about a pint left and he polished it off

    I hear ya. I guess it's up to interpretation. Maybe it wasn't my "worst" beer experience, but simply my most disappointing. I'd probably feel the same way if I passed up on a Younger (which I am also yet to have). But you are right, my few days in Belgium were awesome and I can't wait to go back.

    A nice Vietnamese concoction by the name of Hue. If that is beer then I'm a show pony.

    This is not so bad compared to what I've read in this thread, but last week I picked up a 22oz of Port Brewing Shark Attack at my local BevMo. Sat in the fridge until last night, and I poured it to discover what looked like someone had shaken up a dirty water snow globe. More floaties than a bottle of Goldschläger, and it smelled way off (I've had it before). Pulled the bottle out of the trash to discover it was bottled on 9/2011. Pretty sure this red ale was not meant to be cellared on the top shelf in full light for a year and a half.. Now I don't trust anything that's sitting on the shelves in there. Wife said I should take it back to BevMo, and I said I don't have the receipt, don't you think it would look strange to walk into BevMo with an empty beer bottle demanding satisfaction?

    They did have an area where you could wait AND drink at the same time. It's called the whole f'ing place.

    You could've waited in line with a beer. You could've waited inside the brewery with a beer. You could've waited in the pub with a beer. You could've waited in the barrel room with a beer. You could've waited in the walkin cooler with a beer (AND watched Christmas Vacation!:slight_smile: ).

    All you needed was a general idea of when they were going to get to your # in line and then head over to the front of the line around that time. If you were waiting at Dark Horse and you didn't have a beer, you were doing it wrong.
