    Dubon gets the lineup from the Duster and then passes it along to Joe. That's why you see too much Dubon and not enough Chas. I really believe this.

    Never liked Dubon much after he had a Blue Moon beer while giving an interview.

    Blue Moon shows he makes bad choices in life.
    Nasy beer. Limes ok.
    Oranges in beer BAD

    Try a Hoegaarden. Belgian monks started brewing it 600 years ago, they must be doing something right, right?

    Celis White is a very good one too. The history is fun:

    In 1966, Pierre Celis in Hoegaarden revived witbier, a regional beer style that had become extinct almost a decade earlier when the town's last brewery closed. Celis's first brewery was in his father's stable. In 1972, he relocated to an abandoned soft drink factory, and by 1985, he was brewing 300,000 barrels a year. His Hoegaarden Brewery burned to the ground that year, and Celis, who was under-insured, wound up selling his Hoegaarden brand to Belgian giant Interbrew. That company, now known as Anheuser-Busch InBev, continues to make Hoegaarden to this day.

    Celis, at the age of 67, founded a microbrewery in Austin in 1992.[1] At a Brickskeller tasting, Celis, who spoke English haltingly, remarked that he chose Texas because its inhabitants speak with a slow drawl, making them easier to understand.

    Would love to. But when I had a bout with the diabetes I gave up beer.
    Empty carbs.
    So like a true drunk I switched to Titos and g-zero

    Thank you Angels....for giving our bats life. We can always depend on that franchise.

    I liked the call on Diaz's grand slam: "I was thirsty for runs....Hey Barkeep...I need a Yainer Bomb!"


    I hope they are serious about getting rid of the blackouts.....I have mlbtv and not being able to watch the Astros from CTX is insane.

    Nice to see Chas benched against a LHP

    I guess there’s just no interest in getting him going

    Celis White is good beer. When I was the GM of the Tavern, on 12th and Lamar, we had it on tap. Eventually we replaced it because it just didn’t move. This was back in the late 90’s
