I've been watching this show on HDNey that's essentially a Diners, Drive-in & Dives and Man v Food for drinking.
They go from city to city and learn about local bars and beers/liquors.
Pretty cool show.
I guess the host ( Zane Lampley ) is a comedian but I hadn't seen or heard of him before I started watching the show.
Anybody else watch this ?

yea, this is a fun show. He used to do pretty much the same show on a different channel called "Three Sheets". He's a comedian, actor, writer, producer.....all kinds of jobs.

A friend had suggested trying to find the Three Sheets.
I dig the shoe because Zane and the other guy, Steve, play off each other really well.
I think they're coming out with new episodes this fall but in the meantime I'm watching older ones.

nice. I've been wanting to try the Presidential beers they had on the episode where they went to Philly. all of those looked good. I think they were in philly.

I just watched that episode last night. I was only half assed into it so I have to go back and replay it.
The one on Utah was interesting because they discussed the state's requirements for alcohol.
Although at one point one lady contradicted what they had been saying all along so I'm still confused.

Drinking Made Easy is a great show!
Three Sheets is being rerun on Spike these days, so look for it. It's much the same but each city they visit is from a different country.
HDNet also has Art Mann Presents, which is a travelogue of parties, festivals, and events, also usually centered around drinking.
I'm a big fan of Three Sheets and Zane Lamprey. Drinking Made Easy is a little too dopey for me. I'll still watch it if it's on though. I think Steve McKenna is good in small doses, otherwise he just comes off as some drunk asshole. Too frat-boyish for me.
BTW - If anyone in the NJ area wants the Presidential beers, the Spritis Unlimited in Red Bank has them all.....and they're fantastic! :drunk:

I agree in that I think a lot of the challenges are setup to allow Lampley to win and for Steve to look like a jackass.

This show is one of the few must watch things for me.
They were just approved for a 3rd season.
Hoping they hit CT this time.
This past season they went from Baltimore to Newport RI and then Cape Cod.

Didn't Dave Attell do this a few years ago?

I remember him having a show but not sure if it was the same exact thing.
The host, as somebody posted earlier, did an international version ( Three Sheets ) a few years back.
