The *OFFICIAL* Favorite Beer Thread

[SuperD]

...speaking of posting while drunk.....

Haven't seen a favorite beer thread in a while (I don't think). What I want to hear is your favorite beer as far as something you drink on a regular basis and then favorite as far as maybe hard to find or what not.

Mine are not that elaborate.

For me, Becks Dark is my favorite regular beer (and drinking it now, BTW :cheers: )

Samuel Adams Octoberfest is probably my favorite 'special' beer. Can only find it a couple months a year-as the name would imply-and even then it is hard to find here it seems.

[Stabber]

I'll drink antything:lafflol: Heinekin usually my favorite. Havin a coupla few right now!

[TheBadGuy]

I am not up much on dark beer. I like lighter beverages. Here are a few favorites:

-Straub
-Moosehead
-Iron City Beer
-LaBatt's Blue
-Killian's Red
-Sam Adams Cherry Wheat


There are pleanty more, but that is my top 6

[Peter Lezard]

Bell's outta Kalamazoo make several I like.. I'm drinking a "Two hearted Ale" right now!:cheers: I REALLLLY like there stout, and it is hard to find, so I must not be the only one....

-LaBatt's Blue


This is wrong, so wrong.

[Drivetech]

Pabst lite, Milwaukees Best, Sharps, and Miller Lite (only when it's warm...). :gogdog:

[FireMonkey]

Pabst lite, Milwaukees Best, Sharps, and Miller Lite (only when it's warm...). :gogdog:

What is it with people and warm beer? My cousin will only drink his beer warm too....gross

Back to the question at hand. I usually keep a supply of Budweiser in my fridge. I also like Fat Tire, and there's another one that I tried a few weeks ago that was REALLY good, but can't remember the name of it. For dark beers I like AmberBock.

[Mr.LaBella]

Amstel Light:gogdog:

I was actually kidding about my beer choices, but all the ones I menitoned are pretty popular around here (except for Sharps, not even real beer...). My buddies late dad used to keep a case of Miller Lite beside his fridge, always drank it warm. Tasted just awefull warm. "You boys want a beer", he used to say? :doh: No thanks, not even for free... :)

I like Leinenkuegals Red, Becks, Dundees Honey Brown, Killians, Bass, Guiness, Warsteiner, DosXX dark, and even though I can't get it hear in Indiana, Youngling.

And, I like it all frigidly cold!

[WT351]

I'm pretty easy to please, but if I have my choice I have been drinking mainly J.W. Dundee's Honey Brown. I'll drink any Shiner, Ziegen Bock, Corona with lime (I know, I know). :cheers:

[Lemmy]

Falstaff but they don't make it anymore. Pabst Blue Ribbon is good. I wish we could still get Olympia here. That is good beer. Schell's Original and Grain Belt from New Ulm, Minnesota are real good too. :cheers:

[wes]

Guinness
Sleeman's Honey Brown


Hard to find are some Apple Bok beers I had while in school. Seemed to be a very nice, if expensive, beer.

[TheBadGuy]

This is wrong, so wrong.

That must be b/c its like your Bud Light up there. To me, thats probably not only in the top 6 but top two when it comes to taste. My keg frig probably saw more kegs of LaBatts Blue than any other beer.

No, it's because it is one of the worst beers that Canada produces. At least try Molson Canadian if you must drink the cheap(er) beers.

[TheBadGuy]

NO WAY.... Your taste buds must be tainted or they export the good batches and save the schwag for the locals. Take your pick :asskick:

[wes]

I really hope they do send out a better tasting beer. It is foul, foul, foul tasting up this way.

[Clydetz]

I've been stuck on Beck's for quite awhile now. Got a hold of another 6 pack of Beck's Oktoberfest as a special treat.

[nemesis too]

Honey Brown Ale (brew it yourself) at The Beer Store in Boulder, CO. Good place to brew your own. Copper brewing kettles, any hop or grains you can imagine. Grind & brew your own!
When out of home brew, I drink PBR! Born & raised in Milwaukee:doublefu:

BLUES MY FAV TOO BADDIE! AND ITS BREWED ~ 10 min from my house downtown

[Lemmy]

Wait a minute. I like Labatt Blue too. Molson Canadian is good. Molson Golden is nice too. Oh, let's just face it. I like beer! For our friends from across the pond, Felinfoel Double Dragon is fantastic! To The General, Tolch deen bob saes. I don't know if its spelled correctly, but if you speak Welsh, you should get it. :cheers:

[Staphylinid]

I like Kozel and Asahi, but both are dead hard to find around here.

Usually, I drink whatever local cheapass beer is available like Blatz, Schlitz, Hamm's, Old Style, Black Label, or Stag. Unfortunately, none of them are distributed here (and maybe not even made anymore), so I usually drink Blue.

[jivedaddy]

I usually drink Yuengling, maybe Rolling Rock.:cheers:

Yes, they are all still being made. I just scored some Stag in Branson, MO and it was delicious! :cheers:

[nenofury]

Mirror Pond Pale Ale brewed in Bend, Oregon. I used to live in Portland and this was my staple. 8-10 dollars a pitcher at most good bars (even the nudie joints.) Sucks that it's not available east of the Mississippi.:moping:

[GodFreeDaniel]

Almost any beer as long as it's fresh and doesn't taste Skunky or Sour. I can't stand these party store owner's who get a gigantic order of beer in and then store it "AT ROOM TEMPERATURE" in their basement and then by the time you buy it it taste's like SHIT!

[Guillermo]

I like Guinness, Guinness, and Guinness. Can't say that I have ever met a beer that I can't like but I am cheap so Pabst or Miller if I have to buy. Room temp homebrew is the bomb but my friend that made some of the best died last year.

[Mr.LaBella]

* a lot of full fledged sissies on this here board*

:tbg::nana2:

[Komodo]

My everyday beer is ice cold Bud. When I want something special, Killian's, Beck's Oktoberfest, or Bass ale do the trick! My ALL TIME favorite, Elephant Red isn't around anymore.:dammit:

[Drivetech]

Zlatorog (just ask for a Lasko if you are ever in Slovenia :) ) is really good beer. I wish we could get this here in the States...

http://www.pivo-lasko.si/eng/slo/pivo/zlatorog_pivo.asp

Union isn't too bad, either...
There is a real rivalry between the two beers over there "I drink Lasko and piss Union" or vice versa is a common saying. :lafflol:

Union's site: http://www.pivo-union.si/EN/default.asp?ph=0

Union reminds me a little more of Bud or Labatts, while Lasko reminds me more of Mooshead or Molson.
I like Mooshead and Molson better!

[Spufnik]

As if it needs to be said, Becks Dark and Guinness. Almost any stoutish type is for me. Heinie if I must lower myself...

[UT-II]

Right now it's Grolsch Ale for the daily brew and Carlsberg Elephant for the all-time best evar beer that's really hard to get.

[Danbo]

I'm easy to please, as long as it's frikkin ice cold and on draft. No light beers for me, although I can't choke down some of the really dark stuff either. My rule is; if I hold it up to a high intensity light and can't see through it, I ain't drinking it. I like Killians, Amber Bach, Shiner Bach, Bass ale, etc...

[SuperD]

One more I need to add to the list is Edmund Fitzgerald Porter from Great Lakes Brewing Co.

Great flavor if you like dark beer.

[rudechuck]

I haven't posted yet because I don't know where to start. If I'm at the supermarket, I grab Newcastle or Negro Modelo, depending on my mood. I like Guinness. One of my favorites is Samuel Smith's (any style - Oatmeal Stout, Pale Ale, Nut Brown Ale, etc.), or most of the Belgian Ales. When it's hot out, I go with the Mexican brews - Tecate, Pacifico, Corona, Dos Equis. And if I'm at a friend's house, whatever he's got in the fridge. I ain't picky.

[ANDYLASER]

[Fenlore]

I'd say all around my favourite beer is Sleeman's Amber Ale. However when it's not around, and it isn't usually I either drink Kokanee from the bottle or when draft Kokanee Gold. However me being both canadian and a man I drink anything that's put infront of me.

I like black beer grizzly beer and kodiac beer

Umm I mean bear

[MadDaddy]

wow, thats a tough one....it really depends on the time of year and my mood. There is a place in Summerville NJ that has the best beer selection from all over the world that Ihave ever come across in NJ

I enjoy many fine Belgian biers and ales
Me and the wife love a strong French beer called Belzebuth, it's 14% and has devil on it :jdevil:
This time of year I like many a weizen and pilzner
I like good English ales almost any time...also a real lager is always good
I like Guiness on tap from a certain real Irish pub in PA. that knows how to keep and serve Guiness so it doesn't taste like burned horse shit.
I like a few Imperial and triple stouts
And I like quite a few American micro-brews....Dog-Fish Head brewery just popped into my mind.
Amost forgot, anything from the Alaska Brewing Co. in Juneau AK.
I need to start taking pics of the many different kinds of beer I pick up here and there.

[Iceman]

my EDC is Molson ICE, yes ICE, get it?

But, I enjoy a good Guinness, Bass, or Harp on tap.

Yuengling is really tasty.

On a hot day and when I plan on pounding, Corona. I can drink Corona all day in the heat, and not miss a beat. It's like water, and in the heat, you don't need a heavy beer.

The best beer for flavor I've had is Chimay. This beer is one of the best I've had. If you've never had a Chimay, you don't know what you are missing.

http://www.chimay.com/

[Big John aka Mod 12]

Ice-: I've never seen you drink a beer.

I like Weidmer's Hefewiesn in the U.S. In Canada my favorite is Alexander Keith. AU, it is Victoria Bitter and in Germany, the list is too long to mention. For everyday drinking, in Germany, if was the .5 ltr bottles of Heiniken that I got at the BX. Budvar in the CZ was fantastic and only cost $.40 US for a .5 ltr, when i was there, anyway.

[Fenlore]

lately I've been drinking alot of Great Western Pilsiner, it's a bloody good beer, though in a can not good, but bottled or draft is great.

[yoffione]

I see this question alot on forums and I have seen very, very few of the major brands mentioned, ie. bud, coors, miller. If they are mentioned then the "tastes like water, piss" comments abound. I drink regular bud 90% of the time. I do drink others ranging from coors light to various stouts. I do home brew and tend to stick to the medium ales. I guess this was a favorite beer thread so I should have said shiner bock and shut the fuck up. We (my buddies and I) just drink alot of beer and it gets EXPENSIVE buying the micros all the time.

[Fenlore]

hey, if you like bud then there's nothing wrong with saying you like it... well mostly anyway, point is if ya like it ya like it. And Great Western is a brewing company out here in saskatoon but it's name brand they have Lager, Honey Wheat, Pilsiner, Light and previous beers include a Dark beer, an amber beer, an english style bitter beer and I think maybe they've tried a cerveza but only the first 4 are in production right now I think.

[MadDaddy]

Here is one of the many beers I picked up yesterday...err Friday, that are very good and have a J Devil flare to them. This is a nice hoppy English ale from the Ram brewery. Too bad I am sick and can't enjoy them as much as i would like.

http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e364/MadDaddy13/Beer.jpg

[Danbo]

Updated favorite beer for me. Goose Island Nut Brown Ale! Either that, or Newcastle. :jdsmokin:

He said Ram... heh heh heh!

[Bonzo]

Ladies, Fish, and Gentlemen,


Coors Original is the mainstay at the Doofus Compound. Has been for years, but something interesting happened with the advent of the new local sports bar here atop the sacred slopes on Mt. Zoomie, Northern California. They have this wonderfully delicious ale called Great White on tap. The full bodied golden brew has a very light taste with a slight hint of citrus. My son and I managed to down about 5 pitchers of this stuff and it left merely a mild hangover.

Rolling Rock ( ain`t the same since AB took over)is my every day, brewin up my own beer which looks alot like the Dirty Dicks Maddaddy posted, call mine Mad Hatter Ale, 1st batch was real hoppy so I had to adjust it, good now 5 gallons should go to keg tomorrow. Best part is I bump up the alcohol content as high as I can. Only need a couple brews to get buzzed.:madaddy:

[RoadFish]

Funny, my son in France requested that I bring him back some St. Pauli Girl from the States. I packed away a six pack in my checked luggage. My flight took me through Frankfort and, while putting away a few Becks in the airport waiting on a flight to Toulouse, I asked the bartender if she had heard of St. Pauli Girl beer, as it is brewed in Germany. She had never heard of it. I checked out Wikipedia and found out that it is only brewed for export.. live and learn. :chuck: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Pauli_Girl

[Big John aka Mod 12]

A couple of years ago the model for St. Pauli Girl was from Tacoma, a very nice girl.

I've had a few local brews and wurst in the flugplatz myself. Did you hit the sex shop downstairs? I had to stop in.

BTW, I hear there is a big knife show in Vegas this weekend.

I got turned onto this stuff when I went out to dinner with Claude Bouchonville and his crew in Gembloux.

Well Joe, this Belgian would normally walk to his fridge, take out a Duvel and make a pic. But seeing as he is +/- 5500 km from home, in a "dry" place (desert & no alcohol) he had to make do with wat he found on the internet. ;)

[MicroFanatic]

you need to try one of these. The following is a compilation of favorite microbrews from over the last year. If the brew was not good - the bottle got tossed.

I have to admit the majority are HIGH on the hop scale but all VERY good!
Disclaimer - there are many greats that don't come in 22oz bottles or even get bottled at all that did not make the list.

Love that one. Great flavor. :thumbsup:

I've had the Arrogant Bastard & Double Bastard. Good beers, but sometimes I just get a little worn out on the super hoppy stuff. Had the Sierra Nevada Torpedo several times this summer. Nice and strong without being overboard on bitterness.

Anyone here tried the 120 Minute from Dogfish? Only place I've seen it around here wants $9.99 for a 12 oz. bottle, and I just can't bring myself to doing that at the moment.

I must confess I'm anticipating some cooler fall weather so I can go back to more stouts. I really like them but when it's hazy, hot & humid I just can't take more than one at a sitting.

[Peter Lezard]

I'm hooked on Bells stuff... I had a Oberon ale after work today...

[MicroFanatic]

jujigatame - I have tried the Dogfish 120 minute....don't like it as it is very thick and yeasty sweet. I MUCH prefer the 90 minute = good stuff! Wish they made it in a 22oz :madaddy:.

Stabber - LOVE Southern Tier! That brewery puts out many fine ones!

Peter, never tried the Bells - I'll keep my eye open for that one. Would love to try their Hopslam, Consecrator Doppelbock and Two Hearted Ale!

[Peter Lezard]

Hopslam is some bitter stuff...I love it. My all time favorite is the Expedition stout.

Shoot, I always like Becks Dark, Moosehead, Newcastle Brown, Guinness, Leinenkuegals Red, Red Hook ESB, and Grolsch.

Don't like Lite beer, but I will never complain about it or turn down one offered to me :ssmile:

There is this beer in Slovenia that I can't find anywhere here, I dont' think that they export it yet. Lasko Pivo is one, and from another brewery there is one called Union. They are competetors, and I like Lasko better, but both are pretty good. Not sure how they compare to the others on my list, been a while since I've had them, but I sure did like them when I was over there...

[Kura]

[rudechuck]

Favorite is tough. Depends on my state of mind, what I'm doin' (eating, hanging out, at the beach) and the weather. I like Chimay, but it's expensive and heavy. I like Mexican beers in the summer, especially on the beach (Pacifico, Tecate, Modelo), and heavier beers Brit ales with food (Bass, Guinness, etc.). But if you give me a Bud, I won't say no.

Oh yeah, and I like whiskey too.

[zappadragon]

Back in my drinking days I would have to say Yuengling or Red Stripe. That is of course unless you go back to the college days of a fine Natural Lite.

Blue Moon is my favorite, but Budweiser is always tasty.

[Parker]

Another round of props for the Silver Bullet.

I'm close to saying it's impossible for a favorite beer.

Coors Light and Shiner Bock for general consumption, some of the Sprechers are amazing, Bell's Third Coast beer, Bombadier, Fullers Pride, 1855 or bottle conditioned ale and other Brits for wintery enjoyment, as well as Smithwick's and Newcastle, Carta Blanca or Sol for south of the border fun....

Find me a barstool and a cooler, I'll make due.

How about the best Barleywine, anyone? I'll vote Sprecher on this one....

Chuck, if you can find a Sprecher "triple" it's in the same league as the Chimay. $2 a 16-oz bottle in four-packs.

[Sean O'Hare]

When I can get it a pint of Blue Moon with a slice of orange is awesome! Most of the time though I drink a New Brunswick, Canada beer called Alpine Lager.

[RNST]

A Hoppy IPA is my first choice.

I have been hooked on this IPA from " Spinnakers " in Victoria BC for a few years now. I drove an hour out of my way to buy a dozen large ones. I then drove back to the Ferry to get to the island I am staying on right now. Tastiest IPA I have ever tasted.

http://www.spinnakers.com/brewery/beers.php


Do you people actually like Bud, Coors, and all that other stuff with no taste? IMO might as well drink water and pretend you enjoy it.


:cheesydevil:

[dazr4]

Sam Adams Boston Lager. N'uff said.

I'm a big fan of Bells stuff. My all time cooler weather beer is their Expedition stout. The Third Coast old ale is also great. In summer I like Oberon. :cheers:

[nj640]

Local, I would have to say...Amber Bock...like drinking a liquid loaf of bread! :cheesydevil:

[50calmike]

Theakstons Old Peculiar, Youngs Ram Rod, Sam Adams Octoberfest, Sam Adams Scotch Ale, thats about it..................oh almost forgot......VB. Had some real LaBatts in Niagara a few years back. Oh another one I had in St. Thomas can't remember the name of.

[Parker]

Sprecher Scotch Ale - it's like drinking carbonated whiskey!

And someone else here likes Old Peculiar, eh??

[WaRiOrWoMaN]

My favorite is always somebody elses beer.:ssmile:


I guess that's it for me. when i get beer from someone else i am in the mood for it. when i buy my own, just isn't right. lol :decisions

Amen, A&W for me. Me no likey alcohol

[Norcalflat]

If Im broke(which I usually am), PBR.

If Im doin ok, Guinness.

If Im doin good, Allagash Curieux(can only afford to buy that stuff once in a while) :devil1:



But if its free, Ill drink damn near any beer!

[tubtar]

Amen, A&W for me. Me no likey alcohol

I like alcohol just fine.........but no one likes me when I get into it.:devil1:
I like O'Douls because it tastes familiar and only has 70 calories.
I can't be swilling down a half dozen colas when I am out and about.
I am also a root beer aficionado.
1919 is up there with the greats , but only available in kegs.
They make a personal 2 1/2 liter keg that is maybe the only way I could have it at home on a regular basis.
I have bought 8 gallon kegs for different functions and can get it on tap at a few joints around town.
As root beers go , this is a good'un.
From a bottle , there are quite a few good ones.
Anyone from the upper mid west remember the three cases of returnables for 10.00 deals............. Fox Deluxe , Hauenstein , Buckhorn ?
I thought these were the worst beers ever made........maybe they were.
But an old timer once told me that out of those 24 bottles of beer , there were probably five or six good ones.
Drink them first and the rest go down easy.:devil1:

It's threads like this one which have me considering the sidelines.

I mean, I'm working on a cup of coffee at the moment. It's WELL before the usual accepted hour of "5:00 somewhere." But as an example, when Norcal mentions Allagash Curieux, well, it piques an interest.

Dubuque Star is easily the worst I've ever had. Lemon Drano was the usual vote, and frankly, none of us liked it. It was an impossibility to find the six good bottles in any case.

But as a broke student, the price point was Special-Olympics accessible. $2.75 per case INCLUDING the $1.20 bottle deposit. You'd think we'd have just quit drinking, but nobody likes a quitter :devil1:

And dammit, how could I leave out my beloved Lone Star beer, btw? I love the stuff, or if we had a way-back machine, how about some Andecker.....never had one, but I know where there is an empty keg and a lot of nostalgia goes around that for me.

[stdlrf11]

I used to love drinking Lone Star, but now it tastes like shit to me.

If I want nostalgic, I'll drink warm Coors Originals. I used to sneak one a week from the old man's 12 pack untill I had enough to get a few buddies and me drunk. We would start a camp fire by the lake and BS all night about what we were gonna do with our lives.

I guess its too late to be a millionaire pornstar ninja.

O'Hara's Red is good as is Rickard's Red (which I can't get a home)

Harp and Sam Adams Lager are also favorites as is Dos Equiis Amber.

[Norcalflat]

I have only had a few of those, I am a fan of the Arrogant Bastard ales, a co worker lives off of it and introduced me to it). I will be using that pic as a "checklist." :devil1:

Thanks for the recommendations :thumbsup:

[MicroFanatic]

Peter, thanks for the pics! I will definitely look for these.

Norcalflat - AB is good stuff! The Oaked AB is very good - a must try! Happy hunting!

[Anchorblew]

I live within a short driving distance of Stone Brewing company and sadly I've never tried any of their beers. My wife's ex boyfriend took her on a tour of the factory when they had an open house for locals only.

She says it brings back too many bad memories for me to bring a six pack or 22 oz in the house. I'll have to try it out on a guys night kinda thing.

When I was in college, a roommate and I (one drunken night) decided to build a shelf on our wall and do "99 different bottles of beer on the wall". Well before I moved out, we had put over 200 different bottles of beer on our shrine. There are a couple in your picture that I have tried, but for the most part I find that I am a big Hefewiezen fan after being stationed in Germany for 3 years.

I am generally not a fan of very bitter beers. For me smooth and full of flavor are important. Nothing I can't stand more than a watered down beer.

There's a local pizza company that brews it's own beers. There Hef is top notch, it has the slightest hint of banana in it.

[SuperD]

Up until very recently, the state of West By God Virginia had a law banning anything with an alcohol content over 5%. It got repealed a few months ago so we are starting to get some good beer in.

Thanks for the list. I will have to print out a copy and go on a quest. What better than a beer quest??? Well, except for maybe a pussy quest..:decisions

Had some Sam Smiths Imperial Stout recently. 7% I think. It was pretty damn good. I love dark/heavy beer.

[TKD]

I hate beer.

[woodstock]

The US makes such great micro brews mine changes regularly. I guess my go to beer is Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Sometimes my favorite beer is my latest home brew. Sometimes it's also my least favorite:cheesydevil:.

[Farmall]

Budweiser. I can find it anywhere on the planet. Unlike those fruity micro beers

[Towelie]

i just started getting into the craft brews this last year really. these are my fav's so far:

Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA(i did not like the 120 either)
Racer 5
Pliney the Elder
Anvil? i only had it once, but it was good.

I was thinking about marinating a steak of some kind in the 90 min IPA, but wasn't sure if that was considered a waste. i found the 90 at the local BevMo for 10.99 a four pack about a year ago.

[Evamore]

My favs:
Newcastle
Killian's Irish Red
Duvel
Arrogant Bastard

[jujigatame]

I tried the Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Harvest Ale tonight. $3.95 for a 24 oz. growler. Has a nice frothy long lasting head. Good flavor and a nice bite. Not as strong as their Torpedo, a little more session-able.

[Steelshaper]

Well now I really prefer bourbon but beer is good too. My favorite is something called Dragons Milk.

[Foxj66]

i like bud light in a bottle the best!

[MicroFanatic]

Anchorblew - definitely need to make it over to Stone!!! Hefs are good! I have tried many different craft ones but have never found one I truly enjoyed. My favorite is probably Widmer. Smooooth and FULL of flavor I agree are great attributes to a truly good brew. I have tried many IPA's and some just lack the depth and slight sweetness that I like.

SuperD - wow, never knew that about Viginia and their alcohol limit??? Wonder how many other states have this law.

Towelie - GREAT faves! Love all 3!

jujigatime, that Harvest Ale is pretty good - just not good enough to make my list :ssmile: .

Well, went and picked up a 6 of the Oaked AB, and DANG! Good stuff! A bit pricey(at least where I got it from) but well worth it. :thumbsup:

[JMForge]

I have a short list of beers I like to stick to, mostly from elsewhere. i had Labatts back in the day up in Syracuse and that was probably my favorite Canadian beer, but I haven't had it in a long time.
Partial current list
Several varieties of Spaten
Shiner Bock
Chimay Blue
Staropramen
Leffe Blonde
Pacifico, Sol or Carta Blanca when I am in Mexico
Whatever Pils the place serves when I am in Germany.
Jupiler. I actually like it better than Stella which is pretty darn good for a "mass market" beer, but you can't get it over here.
My current favorite is probably Duvel

[rudechuck]

I stick with any of the Yuengling Beer or Lagers. If they are not available, Molson Ice is next.

On a side note, when I feel like a mixed, Bombay Sapphire is the only way to go.

I voted "Who the fuck cares, I like whisky".

Just want to add that the 3 choices up there (Bud, Miller and Heineken) are not considered as "beer" in Belgium, they're lemonades.

If I had to choose a favorite beer it would be one of these two:

Bass is good KB. have had that Belgium Duvel before. pretty good.

Corona used to be a favorite. as was Heineken. Bud and Miller.

Stella Artois is still good. I'll switch around if I see something
in the store that looks like it may be good. on special. or have
a High caliber alc. content.

[Raindog]

I know that this will make me an outcast but I can't stand the taste of beer.

[Parker]

Sprecher. Black Bavarian, Abby Triple or Pub Ale.

It's winter, time for dark and heavy.

[Norcalflat]

Damn MF, looks like you've been busy :devil1:

[jujigatame]

I tried the Lagunitas Brown Shugga last week. The guy at the package store that I trust for beer recommendations said it was worth trying and there was very little of it around the area, so I gave it a whirl.

I thought it was excellent. No way you could ever tell from the taste that it's almost 10%. The bitterness you expect never comes, it's just smooooooth and tasty. A unique brew.

[matt3]

Laguntias Hopstoopid or on a hot day Three Floyds Gumballhead

[VampyreWolf]

Keiths Red
Great Western Premium or Pilsner
Guinness (or any stout that the bar carries)

Coors Light for cooking and marinading

That said, I'd rather have my single malt or a rye and coke. I should take a pic of my shelf, think I've got about 20 bottles of booze up there.

[matt3]

I've had quite a few of those but, there are more pictured that I need to try.

[MicroFanatic]

Yep, the Brown Shugga is a gooood one! I agree that you can barely taste the high alcohol content in it. IPA's are definitely my favorite and what I prefer to drink most of the time. Stouts, porters, barley wines and fruit flavored brews are likely my least favorites.

So, anyone else have any good ones to mention?

[hawkmoon69]

brown shugga is great. it used to just come in the bomber, but now they have it in the six-pack. My all-time favorite is the dogfish 90 minute...but I have to say that the burton baton ..90 minute oaked ..is pretty darn good. and if anyone is into pumpkin ale, the weyerbacher is phenomenal

[Claemore]

New Belgium Brewery in Fort Collins, Co has some good ones. Probably my favorite from their line-up is Fat Tire, but I also like their Sunshine Wheat.

I also REALLY like Pete's Wicked Strawberry Blonde; Breckenridge Brewery's Agave Wheat; Sam Adam's Lite- though they're not considered a micro brew anymore-; and Kona Brewing had a limited edition that was slightly fruity, and slightly coffeeish at the same time that I really liked.

[Poolshark]

I am a fan of beer. But I am no beer snob, I can't even really pretend to be one if I try. But you know, drinking since I was 12 I have a little experience. I occasionally brew up a little here at home. But that's just background. What really gets me writing this today is because of a trip to the local BevMo yesterday. As I checked out their beer supply I came across several varieties of a German brand called Tucher. I grabbed one bottle of each type they had. They didn't have what I was looking for but I felt like trying to jar some old memories. I remember, years ago, at a divey bar up on Haight street called noc noc. They may still be there, I dont know. They had an amazing variety of beers that changed regularly. One time I was there they had Tucher's Fest beer. It was exceptional. I declared it to be the best beer I had ever had. I have never had it again. So here I sit with several beers hoping to get a taste from one of them that will spark a memory. And I wonder what Your best beer was?

[Winter]

My absolute all time favorite is FREE beer. It just tastes better.

[rudechuck]

When I was younger, I was more of a beer snob, preferring British and Belgian ales. I liked 'em bitter and malty.

Now my favorite beer is whichever is the coldest one in the cooler on a hot day. I can enjoy an ice cold Pacifico just as much as a Chimay.

[50calmike]

Pretty hard to pick a best, or favorite.
I really like the Sam Adams Scotch ale, it is very malty and smooth.

Lately I have been hooked on some very hoppy India Pale Ales. Microbrews mainly but I found one from a local brewery that has made me stop making my own since their flavour is what I really enjoy.

Brockton IPA

Do they still make those beers?

[50calmike]

I just got re-aquainted with Young's Ramrod. Pretty good stuff.

[Poolshark]

Of the Tucher varieties I sampled, I really liked the Dunkles Hefewizen the best. It is a wheatbeer but maltier (malty-er?) than a regular wheatbeer and it is cloudy with yeast. Very nice flavor and I plan on stocking up on it a bit. I was planning on doing a little homebrewing this year and I think my project will be to try and duplicate this style of beer.

I don't think you can really go wrong with a Weiss Bier. They all seem to have a slight undertone of citrus that compliments all the other flavors well.

[lachrymalex]

i'm not much of a beer drinker, except for what i stole from my dad as a kid. back then, all i could get was Lowenbrau, Grolsch, and Heinekin.

on the rare occasion i do buy beer, it's always either Corona, or Yuengling Lager. it's the best selling beer in my area, probably because it's local, but's pretty good, too.

I have been drinking a hoppy IPA for the past month now. Time to change it up again :D


Alway remember, Guinness is Good!

I love beer, SuperD! :cheers: I offer each new member one! :madaddy:

[Soup_Monger]

The recession has forced closure of hundreds (if not thousands) of off licenses in the UK... finding my Heineken has become more difficult.

I've switched to Super Bock for the time being... it's pretty good.

[Parker]

Laguntias Hopstoopid or on a hot day Three Floyds Gumballhead

Matt, try the Lagunitas Rich Copper Ale on those hot days, cold.

Gordon, if you like an IPA, see if Sprecher is sold out your way. They make and excellent IPA.

[waterdogs]

There`s a well-stocked liquor store near me, so I`m always trying out a new micro-brew to "expand my horizons", but I still fall back onto my old favorites, Bass and Newcastle Brown Ale....and if I`m having a couple friends over, I like to crack a 5-liter mini-keg of Monkschof Dark....that`s some seriously good shit....

[Worker]

I swear, Uberhoppy is the best beer I have ever tasted.

[goldmanglass]

The best beer ever: Sammy Smiths Oatmeal Stout
also great: Sam Adams White Ale, boddingtons, and newcastle

[Manzana]

My personal favorite is Goose Island IPA.

[Obijuan Kenobe]

While I know there are hard to come-by stateside, I highly recommend the following as uber-funking-fantastic suds:

Duvel (triple fermeted from heaven)
Westmalle Triple (their double is darker...both are primo)
Rochefort 10 or 8 (on tap, this is the bomb)
Maredsous (on tap, this is the phatty bomb)

I must admit, S.Smiths Oatmeal Stout is certainly a contender.

[Towelie]

sounds like some good recommendations. can't wait to try some if i can get my mitts on them. Some of my favorites at the moment are Racer 5, Pliny the Elder and Dogfish Head's 90 minute IPA.

:cheers:

[Mr. Andersson]

Gotcha!

I´ve had a few and then some wine so I´m getting sluggish and should step the hell away from the compute before Tiny catches me drunk.
Or "The man" for that matter!

Will try to secure some Westvleteren 12 directly from the abbey the 9 and 10 of june, the process is hit and miss, wish me luck.

Obijuan Kenobe you're a man of taste :madaddy:, i think the Duvel is too carbonated though, you might want to try an Orval.

Yuengling is my all time favorite beer to drink if i'm DRINKIN
most of those super tastey beers get a little old after a few in a row.
Yuengling=all around best anytime lager IMO. Lots of it around here too since the brewery isnt far.

[sandwich]

the guy who said Sammy Smith's Oatmeal stout.. i raise my glass to that!! :devil1:

I'm an IPA fan.. The one I've been taking a taste to is the Stone IPA and the magic hat circus boy.

Other good ones are
Magic Hat #9
Brooklyn Local #2
Arrogant Bastard ale
Sam adams white ale, hefeweizen, and oktoberfest
and I LOVE blue moon but rarely get it.

I'm a home brewer also, so I have a stash of home made brews in my closet. yes they are all tasty :ross:

i am not a huge fan of a piece of fruit being in my beer(Hef & Blue Moon). with the exception of being in Mexico on vacation. when in Rome. Hef does seem ok without it.

Beer snobs suck.

The best beer is the one you are drinking. It is even better if someone else paid for it.

yeah snobby people in general suck. anyone who would pay more than a dollar for a beer or $20 for a knife is a sucker.

I just bought these brews yesterday:

Crop Circle IPA and Hop Head IPA. Uber hoppy :D

Monkschof Schwarzbier....comes in those handy 5-liter mini-kegs for that "draft fresh" experience....
Pilsner Urquell ain`t too shabby, neither....over in the Czech Republic, you can stumble into any pub, and they`ll fill your water bottle, rubber boot, or whatever with it, and send you on your merry way....damned civilized, those people....

[Vekta]

My first brew was ready right on 4th of July. This brew could not have gone more textbook and turned out great. A couple of bottles were taken to my friends family dinner and it got a great reception there. Another friend of mine that was there popped up on AIM and show his appreciation. It had a nice 1 inch head of foam on it that stuck around for a while. My buddy lookin at his first home brew...

I got good lace on the glass. It's hard to see but that's the best shot out of the dozen or so we tried to take with a cell phone. (all we had)

Guiness is the love of my life. I don't see PBR but that would be my second choice.
