Your not far of Mr. T, my parents had a small country store in in a itty bitty town called Whiting Kansas so access to beer, Coors beer of course, was no problem as long as we had money to pay for it. Forget the aspirin tho. Paul.

Well, in High School, you'd drink beer through a straw, after taking an aspirin, to get yourself drunk....of course, now, the kids have more potent means...Traveller

Excellent shot, very good colours and light. And agree with Jim - the straw is a very nice touch

Thanks for your comments Jim, that straw put Alastair in a tizzy. From now on he'll be looking at me from with a raised eyebrow. Paul

I love the colors and lighting.
The straw is the winner.

No booze, it's a strawberry smoothie, the doctors and the pharmanst tells me not to drink any alcoholic beverage, nor carbonated drinks so I made me a healthy drink and got the idea for a shot when the first glass I grabbed was a beer glass. The contrast is good/bad not to mention the color contrast.
Personally I am not a micro brewery guy, I find them far too heavy and pungent. We have a large well known micro brewery here in Kansas City called "Boulevard Brewery" and a friend had a 50th birthday party there and a open bar. I tried sample sized drinks of everything they had and didn't like even one. I've tried other micro brews too and they just are not my thing. Paul

Nice. I'm not a Bud fan. I live in Boulder, which has been accurately described as the "Napa Valley" of beer, where every beer from every microbrewery is better than Bud. But perhaps this non-standard Bud is actually worth drinking? But with a straw? Is that actually beer? At any rate, it's a great shot.
