Favorite Beer(s) ?

**brh** · 09-08-2010, 09:26 PM

My favorite is Guiness. In the summer, I like some of the fruity beers such as Dos Equis, Blue Moon, or Lienies Summer Shandy. Warsteiner, Asahi, and Red Stripe are a few other good ones. For local breweries, Schell's and Brau Beer both make some pretty decent stuff. I think the only one either makes that has any national recognition is Schell's GrainBelt Premium, but I'm not sure on that. When I visited AZ a few years back there was a really good local brewery I tried called Oak Creek or something like that.

Bud Select for me please.

Left Hand is my new favorite Milk Stout
I like a local (Eno's, thanks BPM) Oatmeal Stout, but Samuel Smith is solid.
Love the Bastard.
Love Dogfish Head IPAs. I miss their 120 minute IPA.
Buffalo Butte is solid.
For an ender, I like Murphy's Double Chocolate Stout.
For the trendy, I like the Chimay Blue, and the Deleriums.

I'm always looking for new Porters, Lagers, Bocks and Stouts. I've found IPAs to be either really great, or really sucky for my tastebuds. I tend to be wary of them.
Shiners are a good standby, and I've had Yeungling since I've moved. I've heard the brew changed, but it is not as good as I remember it, and Shiner Bock is superior. When I moved to Dallas, Yeugnling was my favorite.

I can get you 120, but it'll set you back quite a bit, SD.

Alexander Keiths is probably my favorite beer. Best on tap, but still excellent in a bottle or can.

It's a Canadian beer, not sure how commonly it's seen in the States.

I lived in Rehoboth when it opened, and almost got closed by the neighbors behind them that complained about the smell. :p

I appreciate it, but I don't love it that much with a baby on the way and a wife out of work. I appreciate the offer, though. If you ever see me make a new thread about my wife finally getting a job, make me the offer again. :D

OR just drop me a PM... ;)

My buddy is the receiver for the largest liquor store in DE.

Will look for it.

Another beer I like...Boddington's...pretty smooth...lighter than Guiness too..

Looks like I am going to try a Great Lakes Brewery sampler pack first. My boss suggested it.

I like the Amber Ales... Specifically,

FAT TIRE

and

BLUE MOON

I'm a fan of 'wheat beers' or white beers.

Hoegaarden is my beer of choice.

Those are the best of the chick beers, for sure.

Their "Indian Brown Ale" is also top notch.

I bought some DogFish Head 90 Minute IPA for the last Skins get-together, and Davekn gave the 90 a rousing endorsement. I am not a beer drinker, so I thought it tasted like armpit.

Yep, I don't drink Ruination all the time because of the cost, but I'll pick it up a couple times a month as a treat. As I said, there is a local brew pub here called Marble and their beers are what I drink the most. They don't bottle their double or triple IPA though which kinda sux, so you have to go to the bar instead, and they have a "Reserve" which only comes in a $14 bomber, so I never have that. Their regular IPA and Red are very good though and much cheaper than Ruination, so that is what I usually pick up.
