I like drinkin cans of PBR and the like on hot summer days. In the winter though i really can go for stouts and rich-bodied ales. Give me a Bell's Two-Hearted and i'm good to go.

As a tradition exclusively for hard water fishing, a buddy and I nip on Blackberry brandy. I hate the stuff but who can argue with tradition.

Awesome! I had this tradition with my grandpa. I can't say I like the stuff but you can't argue tradition to a 76 yr. old man. wink

Anyone else ever have Snowshoe Grog? As much as I detest BB Brandy, Grog was the worst.

Glad to hear Surly is in cans though. I much prefer bottled beer, even if it's the mass marketed swill. There is precious little good beer served in cans.

I usually go with the 25 oz. St. Pauli's or Becks. They don't freeze as fast. I start with them at room temp if I'm going out with the portable.

Don't care what kind of beer it is as long as its -- ice cold, nothing better that beer that's been out on the ice for awhile.

Blackberry brandy is for "stomach upsets" my elders carried a pint of Peppermint Schnapps, and everyone got a swig!

Not much for drinking when im fishing. I'm out there to fish. Plus the fact that i only have a porty and need to drive home after i'm done. Don't want a DUI ever!

I keep blackberry brandy in the shack, but more for medicinal purposes. Ever see the Beverly Hillbilly's, where Grandma was always the Dr. of the house? First thing she'd come out with was a jug with a big white "X" marked across it, full of moonshine. There's a reason for booze being a cure-all to the cold weather blues. Usually cures a sore throat and a heavy head during a cold winter's night. Or at least it doesn't hurt from what I can tell...
