Hi,
Who gives a flying pig shit what hipsters drink?
The only good thing about a drunk hipster is watching them fall off their fixie at the red light.
Just had a Nogne Pale Ale, and aq North Bridge Extreme Imperial India Pale, I would recommend both beers to anyone.
Nogne is Norwegian, North Bridge is Danish. Both are really well executed, but if you're only going to try one, make it the North Bridge. Their cocky claim of complete balance on an IIPA was why I had to try it. So I could sip and make comments about how they are full of themselves, unfortunately for my ego, but fortunately for my tongue - these guys have nailed what they were trying to achieve.

Cheers,
Nik

^I used to drink lonestar at bars as I'm actually quite cheap in those situations. Then I noticed the skinny jeans, converse rocking type enjoying the brew (especially in the dirty 6th areas) and that killed it for me. I now fork it over and go with Shiner.
They do like PBR as well. So much so that PBR t-shirts have become hip. By the way, have I told you about the 'hipsters go home' website my friend founded (then soon forgot to pay to keep the site up)? He printed out bumper stickers and everything, but there was no way in hell I'd put one on the M3.

I always either drink Lonestar or Bud Light when I'm out at bars.
It's a huge hipster beer in Austin.

When I can save 2-3 dollars per bottle by buying Bud Light or Lonestar, yes I'm going to take the plunge when I'm at a bar. Plus they are a hell of a lot better than Coors or Miller. If I'm at home, I only buy nice beer. Money is key when I go out, especially when it's on 6th Street.
