So do you go for the imports? Or are you the "get as much as humanly possible of whatever taste, texture, color, and form" type?

I've recently been picking on Warsteiner Premium German Verum. Really tasty and smooth. And it better be for $1.25/12 Fl. oz. (US) :D

Not much of a beer conosouer (spelling) but I keep hearing good things about the Samuel Adams line, everthing they put out, quite yummy...

But it's impossible to get in this country...:(

If I am actually drinking beer (I usually don't drink at all, and when I do, I prefer wine), I'll take a Guiness

Domestic (American): Blue Moon
Import: Weinstephaner Hefeweitzen

hertog jan in holland

I love a good crownie (http://www.fosters.com.au/enjoy/beer/crown_lager.htm)

Australian for beer. Hmm.. never tried it. Will do!

I am an Ale drinker in the Heat, I like stouts with food, I hate American Pilsners.

Typically I will drink Harp, The Big Irish 'G', Mcewan's, New Castle, Murphy's, I will choke down a Bass.

I have enjoyed some wonderful American Cream Ales, these were all microbrews--Sebastians Cream Ale from TN being one--absolutely delicious one.

I have expensive taste.

Luckily for me a world Market just opened by my house, and they let you build your own Sixers so I will be sampling all the German, and Belgian beers I have yet to taste.

Guiness and Heinekin, and Bud when I watch NASCAR, but thats only for Dale Junior's sake. It doesn't taste great, and light beer is the spawn of satin. I cant stand light beer. Still, Guiness and Heinekin are the best beers.

Ahhhh.. good to hear you say that. I can't Stand light beers. What's the frikkin' point? Guiness I love, although Heinekin I feel to be over-rated.

You mean Skunky, not over-rated.

Skunkily over-rated.. that's what i said.. ;)

There's probably better beers out there, but eh, I haven't tried a lot of imported ones. Too expensive.

...I'm *sure* i've seen that at Dan Murphys. They do order in beers on request though, so you might try them.

Expensive and overrated. It's okay, but not really worth it.

Fort Garry Dark Ale. That beer is the one thing keeping me in this frozen hell-hole (Winnipeg)

What evers on special at the local supermarket..

Newcastle!!!

A briliant tasting, refreshing and expensive beer :fluffle:

:D

Yeah, I hear that...

I have to agree on the Warsteiner...good beer.

And NERVUN, if you are wine drinker, try the Chimays, any of them They are great beers that come in a 750ml bottle. You will want them out of a wine glass.

Anything Anchor Brewing makes, but my favorite is still Anchor Steam. It's a shame I have to actually buy it now. When I worked there, we could drink all we wanted in the tap room and got a free case every week.

You're the 1st person who's ever heard of it within my realm. *It rocks bigtime* :D

(I think I've answered similar threads about 5 times already in the past two months...)

Still, Asahi Super Dry is one serious beer!

I had some just a couple of weeks ago--there's a German restaurant in town that serves it on tap, along with about a half dozen other German beers. Great place.

Hey, it was a toss-up tonight. That and what I got. And i apologize for the thread. I'm new here and am not one to research, especially when I'm drunk.

*shoot* All I get around here is stoopid american beer and crap that might as well be.

Sadly, after many years addiction to guinness and newcastle brown, i can't touch either delicious liquid anymore.

so i'm forced to lager. Stella. Wifebeaters brew.

My favourite local brews are Coopers, either the Pale Ale:

Or the Sparkling Ale:

For a cheapie, I drink VB. Nothing spectacular, but decent flavour & easy to drink:

Newcastle!!!

A briliant tasting, refreshing and expensive beer :fluffle:

Oh, how I laugh.

Seriously, I hope that was sarcasm.

#1 Killians
#2 Guiness(I would like to try Guiness from Ireland where its supposed to taste even better due to lack of Preservatives)
#3 New Castle
#4 Dos Equis

but mostly a Hard liquor man. reminds me, i've got some Goldschlager and Jaegermeister to drink.

Oh, how I laugh.

That's what I was thinking, but it's my f-ing thread and didn't want to start something. But you said it first.

Seriously though, that shit will destroy your brain, and turn you into an old gadgey with an unhealthy obsession for amateur whippet racing.

Maybe so, but Newcastle is still better than about 90% of what passes for beer in the US. I'd rather have that than a Coors Light, for instance. Of course, I'd just about rather have an enema than have a Coors Light.

WHY does everyone ASSUME that I'm a GUY !? Am I just that intelligent? Highly doubt it. :p Anyway, I'm a girl. And I enjoy anything that gets me fucked-up, as long as there's no school (college, mind you) tomorrow. !!

Save me the Coors Light, will ya? ((just kidding))

Probably. I've never felt the need to actually try coors light. That godawful can should be enough to scare any normal person away.

I often wonder though when I watch people forking over insane amounts of money for 'dog' in manhattan, then describing what a 'high quality' beer it is, if I should start importing LCL Pils. There has to be money to be made from that.

"seriously, don't call your child archie unless you want him to spend his life in William Hill waiting for them to weigh in at Newton Abbot"

It's the name I would imagine.

Regardless, drink it at your peril. You'll still end up enjoying whippet racing, just without the benefit of a flat cap.

"seriously, don't call your child archie unless you want him to spend his life in William Hill waiting for them to weigh in at Newton Abbot"

That's good advice.

That or most of the normal darker beers

That's good advice.

Jobs on the bins are for those who are to stupid to fiddle the benefit.

my bosses husband works on the bins so you are wron...oh, wait, he's married to my boss...ok, scrub the above sentence.

When I drink beer, it's usually Shiner Bock (http://www.shiner.com/beers/beers-bock.html).

Still, Asahi Super Dry is one serious beer!
You're joking, PLEASE tell me you're joking!

That stuff is awful (or perhaps I've just been forced to drink too much of it).

Speaking as an American, any beer sold in mass commercial outlets....is crap.

Budweiser, Coors, Busch...etc...all watered down piss.

However, this goes for any Canadian, or European equivalents as well.

Small, independantly owned micro-brewers, or local brewers are the way to go.
The best beer in America, comes from these.

You're joking, PLEASE tell me you're joking!

That stuff is awful (or perhaps I've just been forced to drink too much of it).

Actually, I'm quite serious.

I lived in Tokyo for 7 years, and besides that other great beer, Sapporo, Asahi was all I ever drank...to each his own, I guess.

Not in any particular order...

Hoegaarden
Kriek, Mort Subite (though not Bellevue)
Floris Pomme
Leffe (both)

wait, let me go check the cellar.

Duvel
Affligem

And probably a few more that I can't remember.

oh yeah, Carlsberg.

Whoever said Chimay was a german beer, I think you're horribly wrong. I do believe that it is most definitely a belgian beer.

Fiege Pils
Dom Kölsch

I don't drink

i especially like Duvel, i used to drink it almost every day. but i also like other belgian stronger beer like Leffe (blond), Kasteelbier (dark), Affligem, Grimbergen.

i almost never drink lager (i think it is called lager, but that is just guessing) but when i do i prefer stella artois or jupiler, but they are only good in summer.

i also like Mort Subite geuze, it tastes sourish and is also really refreshing.

Anything from Magic Hat, also Blue Moon Belgian White, Drunk Monk, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Sierra Nevada Barleywine. I could go on forever.
