ALCO really prefers the instant rebate, call me up and ask for some beer, then we get disconnected. I get him some Shock Top, and he gets the beer, walla 100% instant rebate for alco.

How I get most of my beer ...

Anyway, right now, I have a $15 rebate on Coors if I also buy $30 in steak sitting on my steak. I pick up Coors (or Coors Light) for $13.49 at Kroger, place in fridge and use for cooking as the need arises. When guest arrives and said individual is not discerning, offer him/her a Coors.

I've gone through two different Coors, a Modelo, a Corona, a Guinness (good beer), and a Heineken rebate the last three months alone.

I did not realize that Modelo offered rebates. Even though it is a low-cost beer, I actually find Modelo Especial ideal for drinking in extremely hot/humid weather (perfect for teh Pit, really). Negra Modelo is fine for any occasion, IMO. It may not be in the same league as St. Bernardus or Julius Echter, but I think it is a fine beer.

I do - is anyone willing to subsidize?

When I was a corporate trainer, part of the (de facto) job was drinking customers under the table.

Beer rebates are a great concept. Everyone has the "duuuuudddeee - beer, man" colleague.

Your beverage and/or dinner tab is on me at the next :rolleyes: function. The steaks were killer. Even in my highly inebriated state, they were quite tasty.

That was back to the musical interlude. And I do use Seagram's Extra Dry Gin to make some great martinis.
