And so you're favorite beer is???

Mine?

Well thank you for asking.

Generally I like Corona with lime.

But last night hubby brought home my all time favorite - Heineken. OH BABY that's a BEER!

Corona with a twist..

If that's not available, I have been known to drink rolling rock, belgian whitte (white) beer...

and ever since visiting London on vacation last year, i've taken a liking to shandy.

Shandy is a beer/fresh lemon juice drink. It's awesome on a hot day.

but most any lager, most any time...

Or an ice ice cold BOTTLE of Bud when I'm workin in the yard

and Spaten Dunkel

also St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout - yummmmm!

Not my speed

Now Liquor, there you go!

I LOVE Tequila myself. :)

All day long

on Decatur in New Orleans has a very nice Pilsner made right on the premises. Very tasty with a nice kick to it.

Day in and day out Budweiser is my utilitarian choice.

my favorite for the Tucson area is Nimbus' Old Monkeyshine

But I've been known to drink the Micalob ultra-low carb stuff in a pinch.

Brooklyn Brown Ale

or those chocolate stouts! I love those!

yum

:evilgrin:

Corona? Anything you have to put lime in in order to make it drinkable is a bit dodgy if you ask me!

Heineken is OK-ish, but still regarded as a fairly cheap, bog-standard factory beer from a HUGE brewing company. Having said that, it has now improved MASSIVELY since they decided they'd only bring the 5% beer to the UK, rather than the terrible fizzy water they used to send to us (3.4% IIRC).

Do yourself a favour and try some proper Abbey beer....something like a Leffe Blonde or one of the weaker Chimay beers (i.e. around 5 or 6%) would be a good start. Pelforth Brun is a FANASTIC French beer.

If I'm going for draught lagers though, I'll always pick a Stella Artois, Kronenbourgh, Grolsch, Staropramen, Tsing Tao, Tiger, Cobra or Kingfisher over a Heineken.

And don't get me started on proper beers (ales) and stouts!

:evilgrin:

I just like quality food and quality drink.

I'm not snobby about it - Brooklyn Bitter is fantastic, and Coopers Sparkling Ale (Australia) is really, really good. As is Cascade from Tazmania.

Don't get me wrong, I'll knock back a Heineken on a sunny day but I just don't see how it can be anybody's FAVOURITE beer, which is what you asked!

Rich and malty (at 6.8%!), but not too sweet. Tons of hoppy goodness.

For an everyday beer? Summit Extra Pale Ale, probably the definitive midwestern american pale.

Of course, the best beer is always the one you made yourself :)

that website and I have a case in my fridge...........hmmmmmm It IS after 12 noon.........

My current fave is Saint Arnold's Spring Bock, a sweet seasonal brew from Texas's oldest microbrewery.

I would say Wachusett Country Ale. A VERY good micro-brew.

but sometimes I'll drink Foster's

but I do like my Budweiser....

:9 :9 :9

Short of a fresh local (Second Street Brewery) microbrew, yummiest mass produced Beer IMHO.

The one I'm drinking right now is a APA dry-hopped w/amarillo hops.

My favorite for brewing. :toast:

then one of the west coast breweries started using them. Definitely my favorite for dry-hopping, but saaz runs a close second for IPA's.

Smooth and creamy with a nice aroma. I sip and savour, taking about an hour to finish. I know, I know, what a piss I am.

Lately I've been cutting calories somewhat, so I've gone with Amstel Light lately.

tecate with tabasco sauce, much better!

Corona may be the skunkiest beer I have ever had. One of the few beers that lime is actually good in, as it kills the awful flavor.

Heiny is ok, but only if it's fresh. The green bottles usually kill it, as it skunks quickly when exposed to light (as does ANY beer).

My current fave is Saint Arnold's Spring Bock, a sweet seasonal offering from Texas's oldest microbrewery.

But seriously, drink what you enjoy. At least you're drinking beer, and not one of them horrible alcopop flavored malt beverages.

I recall enjoying Pyramid Hefeweizen. Beer connoisseurs, is it considered good?

Best beer for the price.

Guinness Stout
Newcastle Brown Ale
Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale
Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold
Great Lakes Cleveland Brown Ale
Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter
Brooklyn Lager
Pete's Christmas Brew
Sam Adams Old Fezziwig


I loves me some beer :)

:-)

As the old saying goes, I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

I live in Arizona, so I can't enjoy my all-time favorite brew - Old Thumper form the Shipyard Brewery in Portland, Maine. If you ever get up that way I suggest you check it out!!

...Anchor Steam is always a good choice. Victory's Prima Pilsner hits the spot too. Samuel Adams Boston Lager is also a winner. On a hot 90 degree-plus day, an ice cold Foster's with a splash on Rose's Lime Cordial is a real refresher....

and sam adams, and petes wicked ale, and a brew local to my parents called Dog Fish Head.... yummy yummy:toast: :beer:
