Stella Artois is a breakfast beer

not so much. my friend brought over some Sierra Nevada (green bottle) and i didnt like that either.
safe to say green bottles are beer i dont like.

No problem with that at all. I just usually pick up either Miller Lite or Rolling Rock because they taste good to me and are a good price. But I'm still young and drink more to get drunk than to enjoy the taste....which I do anyways.

The reasoning behind the brown bottle is that the colour stops ultraviolet light from penetrating the glass. Ultraviolet reacts with the hops in the beer which results in a skunky smell and/or taste. The hoppier the beer, the quicker the reaction.

Ultraviolet has no problem penetrating green and clear bottles. If you want to buy beer in green or clear bottles, look for ones in boxes or reach far in the back of the shelf where there is less light. Fluorescents also cause this issue.

And yes, it is unfortunate that Pilsner Urquell comes in green bottles. This has got to be the biggest bonehead move they could have ever done.

Green or clear bottle are more attractive than brown bottles, that is why they do it. But you are spot on with everything in that post.

Idk... the one time i tried a vaporizer i felt that it was very inefficient and the amount of "tobacco" i had to use was way more than I would normally have to use with a pipe. Maybe it was just a cheapy vaporizer though.

it actually seems to preserve product SUBSTANTIALLY. I pack one and I'm good for a day or two, a few sessions each day....
