What is your favorite kind of beer on this spectrum?

Anything that isn't German/American piss water.

Spezibraeu Rauchbier or else Mahr's Braeu U.

Both specialities of my home town, not being exported ;)

And these would be of which category? Oh dearest superbabe Cabra West, how I wish you could read this.

The first rule of White Text Club. You do not talk about White Text Club.
What do you mean by German piss water? I thought only USAmericans make piss water. :confused:

And these would be of which category? Oh dearest superbabe Cabra West, how I wish you could read this.

None of the mentioned ones. Rauchbier is a way of brewing that you will only find in Bamberg, Germany.
U is a bit like lager, but much stronger and tastier.

hehe, I did read that ;)

I might have been overly harsh there.

I had some German beer when I went to Bavaria, and it really was very watery. Of course, that's not to say all German beer is like that.

Welcome to the White Text Club!
What is your favorite kind of beer on this spectrum?
Oh, you whose affections are so changeable!
I don't like beer :)

Hertog Jan in Holland its a lovely white lager... i don't drink beer any more but i'd only be too happy to down some of that again!

I voted something I can't repeat...

Let's be subtle. Or we'll get caught, my sexy bombshell. ; )
Stronger and less bubbly? Is it very bitter?

I don't like beer. I prefer water over something that looks like and smells like piss (and in actuality is yeast piss, for that matter)

Getting jealous of ubercute Cabra West, my love?
Is that right? What alcoholic drinks do you prefer then?

Not really. I <3 her myself : p
Midori... mmm
Or most of the more sweet drinks... And rum and cola :D

And another naive foreigner fell for the watered-down foam-only Oktoberfest hopwater? :D

*lol I'm always subtle.... well, ok, almost always : )

It's actually a bit more bubbly, but not more bitter. It just has more flavour

I tend to prefer darker types, but lager styles are good when the weather is warmer. I'll pretty much drink most beers, but some (Tooheys New & Red, Corona, Budweiser & other American types) I will avoid if possible.

Oh, Cobra West, you double posted.

Golden/Pale sounds about right. I will happily imbibe anything between pale and stout though.

It's actually a bit more bubbly, but not more bitter. It just has more flavour
So then. A flower for me lady. Would you like a back massage?
Sounds good, I don't like it too bitter. Full-bodied flavor is good for me.
Like you, dear.
Do you like Heineken? Is it too pedestrian?

I agree. At what temperature do you prefer to drink the darker ales?

I agree. At what temperature do you prefer to drink the darker ales?

Not as cold as lager styles, but that can be hard to acheive. I tend to keep them in the fridge, because I prefer to drink them too cold, rather than warm. If I'm organised I'll take them out some time before drinking them, but I usually forget after a couple!

Ooooooooh, a back massage would be heaven right now
I don't really care for Heineken much, it doesn't taste like much to me. A bit too watery.
Be careful, though, The Beautiful Darkness might feel neglected....

Pale or Brown ales are my tipple of choice.

I don't really care for Heineken much, it doesn't taste like much to me. A bit too watery.
Indeed. I need love too
Yes, me either, ick...

By the way, Cabra, :fluffle:

*back rubs* Had a long day dear? Should I put on some music?
You're right, it is a little light. Refreshing on a hot day though.
I'll take care of that. Plenty of love to go around.
Have you tried Abbott's?

Is it strong?
Nope about 5. something percent.

Anyway my favourite is Kasteel. It's a really strong Belgian ale.

Yes, me either, ick...

By the way, Cabra, :fluffle:
Sorry my dear. Not a day goes by without me thinking of you.
Any examples of beer that you like?

Any examples of beer that you like?
Aww :Fluffle: May I have a massage too then? ; )
On the whole, I don't like beer, but if that's all I can get, I prefer Carlton Draught, an Australian beer.

Haha... tends to happen. :p

I woke up pretty early and thought this said Bear Spectrum. Why can't it be the Bear Spectrum?

Well, I mostly drink pilseners, which I guess falls under the lager category. I'll take a good Stout, Brown Ale, or IPA any day, though. Bock is nice now and then, but not too often.

I think the only type of beer I've ever tasted that I just really couldn't stand was Trappist beer. Horrible, horrible stuff.

I might have been overly harsh there.

I had some German beer when I went to Bavaria, and it really was very watery. Of course, that's not to say all German beer is like that.

Neither are all American beers.

Darker, preferably. Kilkenny. Mmmh.

Still having a long day... ; ) but that back rub sure feels good *purrrr
No I haven't tried Abbott's yet, I don't think I ever heard of that before. What's it like?

*ahem*

ALL HAIL KING STOUT!!!

*Trys to steal your attention away from Xisla*
Cabra, what other types of alcohol do you like?

On the whole, I don't like beer, but if that's all I can get, I prefer Carlton Draught, an Australian beer.
Of course dear. *Massages neck* Oh you have a most exquisite neck.
I haven't had any Australian beers before.
*Pecks lightly* I love your hair!
Only Canadian ones.

IPA is good. A hardy flavor.

I'm a great fan of whiskey ;)

Oh, I'll always pay attention to you honey : fluffle :

Neither are all American beers.

Hah! Gimme an exception then. :rolleyes:

No I haven't tried Abbott's yet, I don't think I ever heard of that before. What's it like?
I love purrs...naughty! Don't make me spank you, Princess Gorgeous.
Like IPA. I would say brown ale, not quite a stout.

Of course dear. *Massages neck* Oh you have a most exquisite neck.
I haven't had any Australian beers before.
*Pecks lightly* I love your hair!
Only Canadian ones.
You've seen my hair? o.O
Ah, people say Australian beer is good...
Maybe you should try one day?

I love purrs...naughty! Don't make me spank you, Princess Gorgeous.

Oh, I wouldn't. I've been banned for that before ; ) I just enjoy being the naughty girl...

I haven't tried IPA either. But brown ale is quite ok normally... if ever I see it anywhere, I'll try it

I'm a great fan of whiskey ;)
Yay, you are my kind of woman :fluffle
Oooh, yum :)

Hah! Gimme an exception then. :rolleyes:

There are plenty of good local breweries in the States. I went to a few when I was over there in 2000 and although I can't remember the names of them there were some great honeys beers and tasty lagers I tried in New England.

Don't judge the States by the mass produced crap of Budweiser and Miller, if you go find the smaller local brews, you'll know there are hundreds of amazingly good beers to be had.

I mean come on, if the Belgians can accept it, I'm sure you can too :p

Belgium Brewers Guild Honors Americans
Four Americans were knighted by the Knighthood of Brewers in Belgium last autumn. The four were recognized for their contributions to the art of Belgian brewing and for creating an interest in Belgian beer in the U.S. Honored at the ceremony were Randy Thiel of Brewery Ommegang, Tom Peters, co-owner of Monk's Cafe in Philadelphia, Eddie Friedland, owner of Edward I. Friedland distributorship in North Philadelphia and Joe Lipa of Merchant du Vin Importers.

Commenting on his Knighthood, Sir Joe remarked: "I sampled my first Belgian beer in 1979 and knew this country was producing something special. Over the years I have had the honor to work with Belgium's most respected brewers like Orval, Westmalle, Lindemans and Huyghe. I also have had the honor to work with some great Belgian beer bars like Monk's Cafe, Sharp Edge and Lucky Baldwin's, who also were knighted for their efforts. It has taken many years for the Belgian beer scene to happen, but it's here now big-time."

You've seen my hair? o.O
Ah, people say Australian beer is good...
Maybe you should try one day?
Using my imagination dear. Oh are those gleaming jewels?
For sure... if I have a chance to attend a conference there. :)
Or are those your beautiful eyes?
*Starts thinking of a poster title.*
I love to tease you and make you happy. Oh my Goddess!

I seem to remember a pic of you some time back with a dodgy white hat and half a bottle of JD in your hand....

None of the mentioned ones. Rauchbier is a way of brewing that you will only find in Bamberg, Germany.
U is a bit like lager, but much stronger and tastier.

hehe, I did read that ;)

Damn, I wish I'd known about that when I lived in Friedberg, I would like to have tried that.

: ) Kisses and fluffles

Mmm ... Jamesons. Perfection, in my opinion. The only thing that's maybe better is Jameson's Gold.
If you want to try Scotch, go for Glendronach 15 yrs
Kisses and fluffles go well with whiskey.... : )

It was a bowl, actually.

And yeah, i'll drink JD, but it's not my favourite.

But Jamesons...mmh...

Damn, I wish I'd known about that when I lived in Friedberg, I would like to have tried that.

You would have had a hard time finding it there. It doesn't get exported much... meaning most of it will be drunk in Bamberg itself, some bottles go out to some exclusive speciality shops..

Yeah, but Bamberg was only a hop skip and jump away. Perhaps when I go to France next spring semester I'll go visit some of my old haunts in Hessen, and possibly go to Bamberg to try this beer. Although I was quite fond of St. Florian Brau at the Friedberger brauhaus.

Ah, hence the dodgy, i remember it being not quite right.

Never tried Jamesons, looks like i might have to try it and see what the fuss is about...

Amen brother. The really good USAmerican beers are excellent. I was severely pissed off when my parents moved to be near my brother in Iowa, as the local micro-brewery had a honey weizen that I might easily kill for. That was until I discovered the local Iowa micro-brewery's oatmeal stout. http://www.world-of-smilies.com/html/images/smilies/party/marc3.gif

You poor demented bastards! :(

*Crys* That's just mean :(

Besides, beer drinkers and non-beer drinkers are but subsets of Booze King/Queens. Boogie on. :D

What is your favorite kind of beer on this spectrum?
You forgot Amber Lager, which is the best beer on earth. Anchor Steam Beer and Abita Amber are provided as prominent examples.

I like Kingfisher and Haywards but I don't know what category they are...:(

Naw, just a bit of teasing.

IPA for me. altough when I make it back to Edinburgh nothing beats a pint of 80'

http://www.world-of-smilies.com/html/images/smilies/love/knuddel01.gif

Yay, I feel better now :D

Until you've been to the Czech Republic and had beer on tap there, you haven't had beer.

My favorite was Staropramen (Granat), but the Pilsner Urquell and Gambrinus were very good too.

I wonder why more people have voted against watery beers than for beers they actually like.

nothing Beats a good pint of Shepards Neame or Adnams
