I thought people from Utah didn't drink beer.

So you say, Kalen, so you say........ ;D

Have a nice day.

More like so I've tasted, so I've tasted.

Next time you're in San Diego, seek out a nice Stone IPA and Alesmith Speedway Stout...you won't regret it.  And if you can find it on tap, all the better.

John,

If the golf truely sucked that bad, I think I would eat twice, forget the golf.  No use wasting four hours when it could be one.  Plus, there is the odd chance you get a decent looking waitress, which magnifies the hour, and so on and so on.  Next thing you know you have a big juicy steak, a cute blonde checking on you every five minutes, and some fancy drink that makes you think she likes you (which she probably does).

Now, on the other hand, if I had to play with a salesmen the next day...thats different altogether.  I still dont see why you couldn't go out to eat twice with the man.  Picture, you save a long time sucking up and playing terrible (on purpose), and instead you get to enjoy his BS over some villo scallipini or something.  Then, get the not so cute waitress, and stick him with some drinks, and you can laugh the next day because he got denied by her.  Even better, now you can go eat a third time, but not with the salesmen (who didn't end up selling anything anyways), and then go to that cute blonde, and not get denied.  That's like three hours of eating, one hour with a blonde (at least at the restaurant), and a round of golf on a boring course you didn't have to play.

The ideal place to do this is Pullman.  Technically it's a secret but there is only one good golf course and every other course in the vicinity (there aren't many) is like the Brittany Spears to pop music (probably should be gone).  But, the restaurants are pretty tasty and your essentially guaranteed to have a cute waitress.  So, your set all ways.

Cheers,
Jordan

Jordan,

Never play poorly on purpose because it makes you either a fool or weak.  I was brought in as a ringer and I rang the bell to the tune of 16 drives.  We won and everybody was happy.

I'm still going back someday and asking about those $16 drinks.

One thing is very clear from this thread - a lot of guys on here need to get passports and venture beyond the US!  The definitive answer is pretty much anywhere in Continental Europe.

As long as we're on this topic, I found a beer that is better than -- yes -- even my long-worshipped Miller High Life.  ;)


As an added bonus, Leffe has much higher alcohol content.

Kalen,

The Stone IPA is incredible.... especially with the extra AC. Have you had the Bastard Ale??

JW,

I'm not a Utah native, and I suffer while here.  While there are a few good selections in the bottle, I can't get anythin good on tap due to state booze laws.

Robert,

I've tried most of Stones offerings...more than 10 at least.  I do love the IPA and Arrogant bastard ale for sure.  When your feeling frisky, try his big brother the Double Bastard Ale, thats a mans beer right there.

San Diego may be so-so in the golf dept, but for the beer, its the golf-equivalant of living in Monterey, except its all accessible!!  ;D

Charleston? i would disagree - yeamans/ CCC  / Kiawah Ocean course - plus a couple of other good courses seal the deal

Boston ? - also disagree - irrespective of Private or Public - besides TCC - Myopia / Essex / Salem / Kittansett  and the rhode island  / cape courses    - plus a few others are really good
