How many beers am I looking to drink? How often do you spend 40+ dollars at the bar that this is the ceiling that you set for a cheap night?

most likely a local draft product. NOLA Brown etc

Yeah, I could easily get out of a bar for $40 drinking good beer as long as I avoided the really premium stuff. No Chimay Blue bombers.

PBR > Bud Light, Miller Lite, UItra, Coors Light, etc..
and usually cheaper or the same price

This. I don't remember the last time that I drank 40+ at a bar just paying for me. You could drink 5-6 good beers at that price with tip.

40 bucks will normally buy me plenty of bud light. Especially if they're running a special on pitchers.

Never had shiner before. Sort of burned out on pbr though.
Just trying to spread out 40 as much as possible. I usually drink Sweetwater.

True, but being better than those doesn't make it good. Just a better option in my humble opinion if I'm really going cheap.
For $40 I could go through four or five Racer 5's at the Chimes and still cover tax and a decent tip.

Bear Republic Racer 5 IPA... from California, it's a pretty damn good IPA and a regular on tap at the Chimes these days. It's one of my 3 or 4 go-to beers if they don't have something new I find interesting.

i gotcha. is it real hoppy? i don't care for a lot of IPAs
Posted on 4/14/11 at 11:16 am to Rohan2Reed
It's not the hoppiest IPA out there, but it's definitely more hoppy than a NOLA Hopitoulas and WAY hoppier than an Abita Jockamo IPA.
I'd say in the grand scheme of IPAs it's on the hoppy side of things, just not the extreme.

Same here. Get one almost every visit to the Chimes.

i'll have to try one next time i run across it. 
Posted on 4/14/11 at 11:20 am to Rohan2Reed
If you like it, also try the Arrogant Bastard from Stone... same price for a pint.

Anything I wanted on the menu
I don't think most places would have a beer that cost more than $40
