Title: What's your favorite beer?
Post by: young_n_sly on May 29, 2007, 02:19:12 PM
So this weekend was great and I spent a good chunk of it having a few cocktails and BBQ'n.  My buddy came down with his family to spend the weekend and he is on a MicroBrew kick.  He brought a bunch down for me to try. Then on Monday my other buddy came to visit.  He has been brewing beer in his apartment for about a year now.  Great blueberry Hefe's, Pale Ale's, and an Alaskan Amber.   It really got me thinking what is the favorite brew of my sly brothers?  Being from the NW I have taken a liking to Mac n Jack's and Alaskan Ambers....... What's your favorite? O0 O0 B33r

Depends on my mood. 

I'm a big fan of darker beers, Stouts, Porters and Brown Ales, and the occasional Belgium.

My favorites of recent are:

Samuel Smiths Oatmeal Stout

Lost Coast's Downtown Brown

Deschutes Black Butte Porter

Duvel

Hey Kajun, if you haven't yet, try the Bud Select, less calories than the Light and more real Bud flavor!

I brew my own, so that's usually my favorite when I have it on tap, usually a porter, or oatmeal stout, I've had good IPA's.

Any IPA is usually my favorite.  Cottonwood endo IPA is great.  So is Saranac.  I also like Widmer hefewiezen.  ( I can't spell it)

Yes, I am a beer snob.   `Dr!n#

A shot of crown, long pause, another shot of crown, then a gulp off a bud longneck. Not much of a beer drinker, love the crown with a splash of gingerale! O:O

When i frist started drinking it was
Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale brewed in Nova Scotia Canada
Than I moved to ontario and could not find a decent beer, I hate molson Canadian and everything else under the molson label, I'm also not a huge fan of Labbat's label either. I like my maritime beer. So I drank Budwieser, and that did me for a while than got tired of that so i gave up drinking for like 4 years.
WhenI moved back to NS I couldn't stomach the taste of AK Pale Ale, it can taste bitter at times, although those that like it really like it a lot (that's the commercial), so I started drinking Oland's Export and other light Ale. drank that for a while, got tired of it, and than switched to Crown Royal and Pepsi.

One day at the NSLC (nova scotia liquor commision) I saw something new, Alexander Keith's Red Ale and started drinking that.... mmm good. After driking that for a while my GF wanted Corrina so we got a case, and now i'm hooked on them. With a Lime, mmmm good....

Keith's Green > Bud > Oland's Export > Keith's Red > Corrina's

If i want to enjoy one beer with a steak i always get DAB it's a german beer pretty good stuff

The most memorable beer I've every had was in Albuquerque,NM.  It was called "Daves Cave Chili Beer" .  Each bottle has a chili pepper.  When you took the first sip it went down smooth then started to burn, then you took another sip to stop the burn then its smooth then it starts to burn...well you get the idea.

I haven't seen it in quite a while.  Anybody else try it?

I also enjoy OPB, "Other Peoples Beer"
