Beer Connoisseurs Discuss Good Beer

[kastein]

Blue Moon, Leffe Blonde, and Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout are my favorites.

Sam Adams is usually pretty good, I'll drink Heineken if I'm at a party and it's that or other party beer, and I think I have a few others sitting in the pantry but haven't put them in the fridge yet for testing.

 

[redneckboarder]

blue moon is my drink and get drunk beer

harpoon IPA is for special occasions

and i usually have a long trail sampler pack in the fridge

 

[kastein]

well hell, if we're drinking to get drunk, that's where the whiskey comes out!

 

[XJ Eric]

I can't believe I haven't seen anyone mention Yuengling yet!

Thats where its at. I have to drive home to PA just to get it and I bring two case minimum back with me.
Short of that I'll drink Shinerbach
and Sam Adams
Blue Moon is a pretty good cheap beer.

 

[Darky]

I can't believe I haven't seen anyone mention Yuengling yet!

Yuengling will always be a favorite as well.

From earlier in the thread...

I like to go to Pizza Port whenever I'm down by Pendleton. They have a microbrewery that I like to sample a couple beers before deciding on one.

x3 on Yuengling and x2 on Czechvar....

I generally stick with the hoppier & IPA style beers, I would consider Yuengling piss beer, just a small step above miller light, it just tastes ok & its cheap, but not worthy of much more than "americas oldest brewery" or whatever.

To throw a few out there
Victory, Hop Devil & Hop Wallop, awsome beers
Dogfish head: 60 & 90 min IPA
Saranac IPA
Newbold IPA from Phila Brewing CO
Yards ESA & IPA from phila as well
Blue Point brewery Hoptical Illusion (NY)

 

[WaXJ_Skier]

Dogfish head: 60 & 90 min IPA

90minute IPA is awsome, the 120minute is great when I can find it.

We have friends coming over tonight, so I will pick up a case of Yuengling Premium. At 13 bucks a case... a bargain.

I've always liked IPA's but lately I've been hitting the unfiltered wheat beers pretty hard. One of the local shops will let you mix and match 6 pack of whatever you want to try. :clap:
Some of my favorites so far (in no particular order):

 

[kastein]

I actually just picked up a 6pack of purple haze to see if I like it, thoughts?

I'll have to check out UFO too. I really like wheat beers/ales for some reason.

 

[Jeff in VA]

Chimay Red (Trappist Monk beer).....top fermented, unpasteurized

the most mind-blowing beer I've ever tasted

I've been trying to find the Blue as well, but have not been successful (yet)

Great Lakes Christmas Ale.

 

[JNickel101]

oh I almost forgot....Roswell Alien Amber Ale...

 

[wolfpackjeeper]

I have friends that clean the convenience stores out of Yuengling when they come to this side of the country for training. A buddy took 15 cases back from ASBC when he went. He UPSed his luggage so he could fit more in the car. Apparently it is not available in OK.

I love wheat beer, but I had to find brand options other than Blue Moon after Hill-Dog said it was her favorite beer.

 

[rocknxj]

I used to drink Bud, but now I only drink Miller products.

WTH, Boat?

Stone Arogant Bastard Ale or Double Arogant if you can get it.

I'm also a big fan of an IPA or Pale Ale from Mendocino Brewing Co. Yeah, bird beers rock.

 

[IslanderOffRoad]

Being in San Diego Stone is somewhat cheap.

Good ole' Double Bastard.

Indeed. I need to get down to the brewery again.

 

[IslanderOffRoad]

I'm not a big beer drinker, but how can anyone with a penis drink PBR?

Usually I drink it after a ping pong ball lands in a cup full of it.

 

[tharlanjr]

Anyone try Utopias from Sam Adams?

I'd like to try it, but for the $$$ its not gonna happen.

 

[CherBear]

Strohs for when all the money went to the Jeep. (happens a lot)
Strongbow for good stuff. (Yes its not a beer, deal with it)
