So I am stuck in AA watching the game Saturday night. But, on the plus side, I have a keggerator. Now, this keggerator is empty so my question to you, MGoCommunity, is what type of beer should grace my keggerator for this monumental day?
yes plz
... as I've never had it, but this seems fitting:
Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.
It's okay. Nothing great to be honest and you can definitely do better. The only thing that really seperates it from the other Lagers on the market is it has the word Wolverine on it.
It's just like another lager. Equal to (or maybe slightly better than) a Budweiser. It's also fairly cheap, though ($6-$7 for a six pack).

High Life is never the answer.
Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
What are you talking about? I have a 6 pack of High Life in the fridge right now. It's the answer if the question is "Do you hate yourself tonight?" or "Are you broke as hell?"
"I'm Harmon Tedesco, best goddamn placekicker in the whole continental world."
ive had enough low paying restaurant jobs where high life was the answer for me as well. There are better ways to get a buzz on for cheap, in my opinion, but i can undertand the lure of the high life

And now I get your username.
if the answer is "what tastes like watered down pee and will make you feel horrible in the morning?"
my vote for your keg is newcastle. not too strong, not too heavy, and very very tasty

Newcastle doesn't hold a candle to nearly every other brown ale I can think of. And it's British. Are you too good for Amurrican burr?
p.s. High Life Lite is the answer if the question is, "What beer can I drink literally all day long and not get sloppy drunk?"
"Bend over and I'll show you." Perfect answer to nearly any question.
kegerator of High Life + Oriental Express = WIN, just like our boys will do in Arlington.
I think I had High Life + Oriental Express take out 2 days a week. Neither of them in isolation is great, but you put them together and it's the perfect food-drink combination.
Bells 3rd coast. Supposedly 2-Hearted is being released by the keg per Bell's website.
a year ago. so methinks this is not new news.

It does indeed come in Keg form, and it is indeed glorious.

or in a tub of ice.
Use fridge for this:

life is like a box of chocolates... and you got the Whizzo Quality Assortment
I don't remember the name of the brewer, but the beer is called soft parade, a mellow way to start the day, then i would transition to Cowcatchers Red Ale ( Mt.Pleasant Brewing Company) Similar to killians and bass, a touch smoother finish, and finally to celebrate a wolverine victory, i would suggest Coal stoker Blackberry ( Mt.pleasant brewing company) think guiness and chambord for flavor context. Best of all all 3 are available at Meijer.
It's a Maize and Blue world, everyone else is just livin' in it
If you're going Mt P, you have to go Trainwreck.

Soft Parade is from Shorts Brewing Co and is always a great choice. I think its around 8% abv so its one to be careful with the wife/gf
Beat me to the punch!

I believe Short's brews the Soft Parade.

Shorts Soft Parade. And while it may taste mellow, it's actually about an 8% beer if I recall correctly.
I got the shotgun. You got the briefcase. It's all in the game though, right?
Honestly if you're planning on putting down a keg in an afternoon and evening of football, go for something light and with a slightly lower than average alcohol content. Give yourself a chance of remaining upright and functional until the PAC12 games wrap up. Pilsner Urquell is my favorite for marathon drinking. Have some heavier beer and/or liquor on hand if desired, but keep the keg something easy to push your way through.
Plus that way the leftover booze will be easy to kill off with light evening drinking during the week. I tend to get PBR kegs these days, good price point, tastes pretty good, and you can just blow through it without turning yourself in a puking mess.
For anyone buying cans, Trader Joes also now has their own lager at 5% ABV and 58 cents per can. It's shockingly good and perfect for when you need a cooler full of cans for your party.
All day IPA is my new favorite session beer. That or oberon
I like where your heads at. This excites me every year way more than Oberon.

I have been drinking Founders Pale Ale lately and it's easy to drink and about 5%. Love it.
My buddy (yea I know you're going to read this Mitch) had that at his wedding a few weeks ago, SO AWESOME.

Hoegaarden wouldn't be a bad choice, if possible. It is 4.9% APV, as I recall, which isn't terribly high. If you don't mind unfiltered beers or beers with a citrus background similar to Blue Moon, this is a pretty good selection.

Too OT for opening week. However, I can't resist and will contribute anyways. Oberon. Get it while the gettings good, seeing as it'll only be available for maybe a few more weeks.

I don't know why. Pretty sure you can get it in a pony keg, though.
Killians Red. That way you can turn the tide into urine.
