    Maybe the aftereffects of Mother-in-Law's Day from Sunday night? But, I think all the people from will-burg are to blame......its easier that way....

    Is it too much to hope that it's going out of business and another, cleaner, supermarket will take it's palce? OH please. C-Town is the most disgusting market I've ever been in. :x

    Although the "Steel Reserve" is still left over. :twisted:
    Has anyone actually ever drunk that stuff? The packaging is like a parody of itself!

    ive had it before. its 8.2%, so it has that chemical/sugary taste that most overprocessed malt liquors have. id say st. ides is more bang for your buck, at 8.3, that is, if you have a steel stomach...

    steel reserve does some crazy crazy things to a man (or, I suppose a woman). one of my friends from back home always claimed steel reserve was produced by the government that was conspiring against black people (he himself was black, and introduced me to steel reserve). the irony was bittersweet for him when he got really drunk one night and did some really stupid shit and landed in jail for a few years- no word on whether he was drinking steel reserve.

    When I was in John Jay it was Balentine XXX, Boonsfarm Apple Wine or Brass Monkey (I shudder thinking about them now)!

    Ballentine XXX really isn't that bad. And as for Brass Monkey... "that funky monkey"!

    I recall carrying a backpack around in college filled with 40s of Steel Reserve. One for me, one for the guy on the street with a harmonica who sings a song about me, one for me, one for, one for... oh who can remember?

    Sorry, it was me.

    I'm super hip. I listen to bands you've never heard of, and couldn't possibly appreciate until they sell out and start appearing in "clubs" and "bars" and "on CDs and MP3s". I was having a party for all my hipster friends, and while dusting my collection of concert flyers and deciding which belt buckle I would wear tonight I realized that I didn't have enough food or drink for my elite crowd.

    So I popped down to C-TOWN to load up, paying for it all with my trust fund credit card. I love the whitefish stank, it's so authentic. In fact, I'm going to call my next band Whitefish Stank.

    "40s were good back in the day
    'til the new 64 came and changed my way
    St. Ides ain't holy,
    the Colt's a lass,
    Get down with the thicker shit- pour another glass."

    Just a few words from the horrible rap group i was in in high school. The 64 oz olde english jug (complete with handle) changed my high school life.

    teddyballgame, I think Whitefish Stank and the Steel Reserves is going have to sample the bassline from your track. It has all the hallmarks of a great hipster almost-ironic-but-not-quite sampling: cross musical genres, obscure origin, from high school.

    Apparently, C-Town restocked.

    And in commemoration of this memorable moment, I snapped the following photos for you guys last night:

    I'm am fully aware that you are making fun of hipsters here, yet instead of laughing about it i'm really getting angry at them!
