The US does have some fantastic local brews, but it seems most people are content with the gnat's piss off the shelf of Walmart.

But then I'm not much of a fan of beer, so I'm by no means any kind of expert.


Fair enough. I'm a beer connoisseur and brew my own. I'm a little invested in it. I was just genuinely interested in what good beer they might have.

Obviously, no selling alcohol through the Drive-thru.

I would also say that, depending on the restaurants location it might be prohibited as well. If the restaurant was located along a freeway or highway for example it might not be allowed to serve. That way you aren't allowing a driver to come in, get hammered, and then drive away while drunk.

If I were operating a restaurant I would at least have a limit to how much alcohol you could sell to someone.

There are states that have drive up liquor stores already, it's not a new phenomena.


Yes, but they're not places you are getting food for immediate consumption.

Sure, nothing is stopping people from opening it in their car, but we really don't need to encourage drunk driving.

We have a decent number of Belgians, though sadly the closest place that has the Grimbergen Triple is by Chicago, so I'm not casually getting one anytime soon.

I have a doppel homebrew that's due to be transferred into the carboy as soon as I can get the temperature on the minifridge stable enough, for what that's worth.

Their chicken here in the US is edible, IMO (as is all food/taste related things)


If Australia is the SH version of the USA... does that make New Zealand the SH version of Canada?

Down here, Hot & Spicy (from those outlets that still sell it... it's not actually shown on the menu even for those that do any more) is edible, and was possibly handed down to mankind by the gods of Olympus as a reward for fealty.

Original recipe is pretty much just like eating oily cardboard.

Lol, I said it was edible, not that it was good tasting

Honestly, whenever I buy fried chicken anymore, it's either at the local grocery store's deli counter, or in the form of "wings" at a place like Buffalo Wild Wings or Hooters

Being able to get a beer with your chicken wings or Big Mac in the drive thru isn't "encouraging" anyone to drink and drive any more than drive-thru liquor stores already are.

Actually I do southern fried chicken. I get free range yard bird and Crisco. Lightly breaded and into a Wok. Yes a Wok I said.
I do pork chops in a deep pan......damn my arteries harden twice over just thinking and I know what I am planning for dinner this weekend
