PrincessChey 5 Posted August 13, 2007 Is this carbonated? Has anyone had it and been ok? I havent tried ANYTHING carbonated yet, but I am going to a Mariners baseball game next weekend, just wondering if this is something I can drink since I havent tried beer....let me know if u have tried and whether u had problems or not. I mean, they serve wine at the game but I would just feel weird. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catzintj 1 Posted August 13, 2007 i dont drink anymore with my band since i get acid reflux. but i did for about the first year and i drank margaritas and a few beers. the beer is on sip and wait. on sip and wait. slow. so i did not drink much beer. we really arent supposed to drink liquids with calories. but i had a few fun nites with my friends and never gained any weight . but i got heartburn from the last time i had a margarita, so i havent had alcohol since. have fun.

babygrl1234 6 Posted August 13, 2007 I have had both beer and Mike's with no problems. Drink them slowly. Mike's also has a "light" hard lemonade with less carbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blj5362 0 Posted August 13, 2007 I drink wine coolers (Fuzzy Navels) but I always shake them up and pour them over ice to try to get some of the fizz gone. They don't bother me as long as I do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaffer 1 Posted August 14, 2007 Mike's are carbonated. Personally I have an easier time with beer, as opposed to other carbonated drinks like pop (I wont let coolers pass my lips). I find the beer has smaller bubbles, likely due to it being naturally carbonated by the yeast. Maybe pick up a Mike's before you go to the game & see how it goes. I would also try a light beer & see what you have an easier time with. Andrew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
