I quit drinking beer a year and a half or so ago and drink those lightly flavored sparkling waters. Yep. Had to quit beer for a while. Tried the NA stuff and it just isn’t good. Started popping a LaCroix (or whatever dafugg they’re called) instead. Much better. Got a Soda Stream machine a few years back. Carbonate my own water from my well, add a squeeze of lemon, lime, grapefruit, tart cherry juice, etc and make my own expensive "seltzers". I love the dang thing. Only real sodas I drink nowadays seem to be the Jarritos down at the Rubio's taco shop. My wife bought me one of those a few Christmas's ago. It's still in a closet.

Yeah I know, gay question.
But I need to take a break from the brew.
(I'll spare you the details, not fun health issue...)
Been slurping on Busch NA and Heineken 0.0 for the last week.
What else is there?
O'Douls?
Coors make one?
NA White Claw? .Why? Beer tastes horrible and bloats. If not for the alcohol there is no reason. Sodawater. Water. Tea. Coffee. Fake beer. Makes one shiver in thoughts of why.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

'Nother laCroiy fan here.
I quit drinking beer about two years ago, and this makes a good "refresher"
I tried the NA beer, but just couldn't like ANY of it.

Felt like it about a week ago.
Got into the Tom and Jerry's, beer, prime rib 3-4 days in a row...
Didn't do me any good.
Going low(er) fat and light beer once a week.
Wouldn't hurt me to lose about 10-20lbs either.

Sam, you better look and see if Keystone makes one. That would be the bomb.  Hush now, you ever tried mowing 2 acres with a 38” cut with no Keystone?? Better have a 12 pack on ice. Any more grass than the typical suburban back yard calls for a cow, or at least some goats or sheep. Out here in the arid west, one or maybe two cuts with the weedeater on the firebreak is all that's needed other than the lawn. Spend all that time on a riding mower just to have green grass that looks better than the neighbor's ? No thanks. I have better things to do, like keep an eye on the innanet news stations. Scheidt be goin' down, don't want to miss out and get scooped by some other yahoo on here.

Ed, I'm sure you could find some recipes online for seltzer mixed drinks that could be tasty. Of course, if you're a neat whiskey person, no need for a shot of fizzy water, homemade or otherwise. Maybe one of the boys could use it?

Clausthaler and St. Pauli sort of taste like beer, Coors has a slight isoamyl acetate hint to it (like the real thing - if that's your thing). O'Douls amber is drinkable. Heineken tastes like seltzer water to me.
What would Porter Rockwell do?

probably felt that in your pancreas after all that fat and alcohol. Do some intermittent fasting a few days and just drink bone broth and lots of water Felt like it about a week ago.

I've tried many of them and find the Clausthauler and Heiniken to be the best. Strangely enough, the zGuiness product was the worst.

Only people that quit drinking are alcoholics that can't quit drinking. And they can always tell you the day and time they quit cuz they've hated every miserable moment of their lives since.
No offense LOL. Hey Fireballz, whatever happened to your big Jesus kick? LOL hey Dave, why not use the sock puppets for maximum effect? You can create your own consensus. ![[Linked Image from media.giphy.com]](https://media.giphy.com/media/29HRejgahYenVsohB5/giphy.gif)

Ribka, I'm gonna follow your advice, lay off the sauce and watch my diet.
This has happened before but I didn't realize what the hell was going on.
Bone broth......lol
Slo, sorry about the crazy wife.
Luckily mine is still reasonable...knock on wood.

Sam, did you have pancreatitis, too?
I had a recent episode - Doc said to cut back. He wants me at 2 beers per week in 6 months.
I've always been a curmudgeon - now I'm an old curmudgeon.
