Not according to Wiki

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Bourbon,_One_Scotch,_One_Beer

"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" (originally "One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer") is a blues song written by Rudy Toombs and recorded by Amos Milburn in 1953.
Other artists released popular recordings of the song, including John Lee Hooker in 1966 and George Thorogood in 1977.

From Wiki about Adolphus Busch... had heard this (translated) elsewhere but I cant find it......

(snip)To build Budweiser as a national beer, Busch created a network of rail-side ice-houses and launched the industry's first fleet of refrigerated freight cars.
However, throughout his life, he jokingly referred to his beer as "dot schlop" and preferred wine to drink.(/snip)

A Taste test with Coors Lights @ $18.49 a 24 pak, Keystone Light comes out ahead, and no intestinal issues either

A cowboy, who just moved to Montana from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Beer.
He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn.
When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.
The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy,
"You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it.
It would taste better if you bought one at a time."
The cowboy replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers.
One is in Arizona, the other is in Colorado.
When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together.
So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself."
The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there.
The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way.
He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.
One day, he comes in and only orders two mugs.
All the regulars take notice and fall silent.
When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my
condolences on your loss."
The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs.
"Oh, no, everybody's just fine," he explains.
"It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking."
“It hasn't affected my brothers though."

I was a Jack and Coke guy for decades plust keep drinkiing cokes when I swore off the Jack for a while. Made my feet swell up..too much salt the doc said. Sugar isnt cokes biggest drawback according to him. I aint had another in a long time. Beer and shooters in moderation on my once or twice a week trips to the old folks pool hall/bar combo. Two buck Tuesday is special. At home I tend to toward shooters and wine coolers using my super healthy Ginger/Raspgberry Ginger Champagne and cheap wine combo. For shooters I have developed a taste for some surprisingly smooth real cheap bourbon? called Kentucky Gentleman. Its the same price as Kentucky Deluxe and goes down easier.

I have a bottle of the green label Hornitos Anejo. I can't decide if I like it or not. One day I will like a glass of it and the next time I might not. I am not much of a tequila drinker.

I sometimes wonder what goodies these folks got stashed in the back room for breaktime.

My deceased wife came home from shopping to find me and my neighbor out front of my house with a chainsaw, rope, climbing lanyard, beer in our hands, and a cooler at our feet. We were both looking up at this huge pine tree that had pine Beatles. She pulls up, rolls the window down and said I don't like the looks of this. She asked what were we planning and I told her. She asked why we need the beer. I said we have to think on it first. She asked how long we have been thinking, I tell her about an hour or so. She puts the car in reverse, says she is going back out to shop, she didn't want to be there when the police and the ambulance showed up.

Funny, we decided after a few more beers not to top it but to bring it down in the Cul de sac. By the time we were ready with the rigging and getting ready to cut we had half the neighborhood watching. Some actually brought out their lawn chairs and coolers. I think there were bets on which one of us two was going to get killed or weather or not the tree falls on my house. We dropped that pine right were we planned. I figure it was them thinking beers that did it.

I have always made a game of spray painting an red "X" on the ground of where I want the tree to land at, and then see how close I can manage to get it when it falls. Sometimes really really close. Other times not exactly where I wanted but no harm done.

And yes, always beer involved!

Thinking of opening a secluded bar out in the middle of nowhere... only the finest bourbon served. OTP members only of course.

Can't go wrong with that. Just add a few bat houses to keep the skeeters down!

And maybe a hot barmaid or three!

I think of the two, I would chance the hooker. That seems nasty!!

Here's my rationale...

I like Tequila; I drink it often
I like Tuna; I eat it often
I like Tabasco; I put that shit on everything

OMG I once spent $279 on a 21 year old Balvenie because my brother was coming to visit and was a Scotch snob. This stuff is a bit outside my budgetary limits.
