Learning about a new beer

So last week Nick and I go down to the hot tub at our lodge after a long day of poker. Super important to remember and take it easy after playing poker all day. Nick grabs the case of beer he bought earlier and we head out the door.

Get to the hot tub. No good lookin' girls. Oh, Whistler, why do I even hope anymore? We crack open some beer. Molson something-or-anothers. Not the regular Molson Canadians anyway. There are some other people in the hot tub drinking Kokanees. We're just sippin' away, hangin out, meeting new people. Everything's fun. We just have 2 or 3 beers and head back up to the apartment and play some more poker.

NEXT WEEK...

Nick buys some beer, same beer as last time, our trusty Molson-whatevers, we are thinking of hitting up the hot tub before the lodge closes it down. Then I hear Nick, "dude, are you serious"

Me: what?
Nick: This beer is non-alcoholic
Me: What!? Are you for real?

On the side of the can it says "MOLSON EXEL" and then ".5% ALCOHOL", but the decimal is insanely small compared to the number. Canadian beer is standard 5% alcohol. Why would we even look for the decimal?

So these people in the hot tub must have thought we were either recovering alcoholics or just incredibly lame. Can you imagine if I had asked them if they wanted to shotgun a beer with us? God, we are retarded.

Cons: Bought non-alcoholic beer, looked like idiots
Pros: Can pound beers while i play poker all day and not worry about it hindering my play. Haha, syke, there are no pros. Sigh.
