Ah, memories. many moons ago when I was in college. In fact, I drank quite a lot of it.

Re: Genesee 12 Horse Ale
Same here - college and lotsa Jenny Cream Ale and 12 Horse when you could find it.

I'd say if there are a dozen more favorable 12 Horse replies we might have us a contest. Unless or until - good memories.

Re: Genesee 12 Horse Ale
I'm from upstate NY originally. Haven't had a 12 Horse in ages but enjoyed many a Genny Original back in the day and still pick some up whenever I'm home. Luckliy i can get Cream Ale out here in Colorado and grab a 6 pk every now and again. Brings back a lot of good memeories. cheers

Seems like a theme here. Growing up in CT. High school and college years.

Re: Genesee 12 Horse Ale
There is not a groundswell of love expressed for the old, reliable 12 Horse Ale. Still, there is love.

Shall we make it a contest or leave it at that, fellers?

A decent, inexpensive ale - less snap than Ballentines and more than Jenny Cream Ale. Hope this helps, sick boy. Feel better.

mmmmm...Ballantine is one of the best "cheap" beers ever. Their IPA was good too. Nice and spicy. The closest thing I can find to Ballantine is Weinhard's Blue Boar. cheers

Re: Genesee 12 Horse Ale
I want to do a contest - I really do. And you guys should have first crack at it.

Lemme come back with this again in a new thread, as a contest, after I get moved. In the meantime, the contest will involve something about my relationship with the picture (or the contents of the picture). No guesses now please. Just a heads up for you 12-Horse good guys.

Hmmmm. Now what for a prize....

Cigar?
