Your favorite beer?

SHavis · 07-27-07, 11:59 AM

My most favorite (I have a lot of favorites!) is 90 Shilling from a O'Dell, brewery in Ft. Collins. I'm really bummed that it isn't available in Texas. That being said, Shiner Bock is probably my first choice at the local stop-n-rob. I can't leave out Warsteiner & Duval...good beer, too, just a little high on the price point for copious consumption.

Some other beer's to try?

'74 UA FJ · 07-27-07, 12:01 PM

Yuengling for the first 4 or 5.
Bud light for mass consumption.

Skillet · 07-27-07, 12:01 PM

EKU28 Austrian Bock style. One of my personal favorites.

Strong Blonde from Hangtown Brewery is good too.

JJS · 07-27-07, 12:02 PM

My favorite is free. Besides that, I like Long Trail Hefeweizen and Negra Modelo. I also like Lion's Head, but I can only find it in PA. It's probably the best tasting cheap beer I've ever had.

Jomama · 07-27-07, 12:06 PM

#1 choice... Harp.
But I love variety so...
Deschutes, New Belgium, Mendocino Brewing Co., and O'Dell are all fav's too, although I can only get Deschutes in AK.

Fave has to Chimay, its a special occasion type of brew. My regulars include most flavors of Sierra Nevada, Harpoon, a local we have here called Sweetwater (try their IPA, its unfiltered), Terrapin (another local), Firestation... I have a fridge in the garage that is labled "BEER ONLY" - Dont you dare put any freakin' Chardonnay in there!

offroad_nomad · 07-27-07, 12:07 PM

Whenever possible:

Hefeweizen,
Blue Moon, or
Rolling Rock.

fiberboy · 07-27-07, 12:20 PM

But this one rocks...

SHavis · 07-27-07, 12:38 PM

OOOOooooo I forgot about Moose Drool. I tried that last time I was in Waukesha. Good stuff!

Moose Drool..

They were having a sale on the big bottles of Chimay at a local liquor store recently. I might go over there tonight to see if they still have any left.

splitshot · 07-27-07, 01:08 PM

I've got one in the fridge waiting for a special occation, like when I get home..

Good idea!

Red or blue label?

SHavis · 07-27-07, 01:12 PM

A town outside of Milwaukee, WI. A place where really big engines are made. I attend continuing education classed there every few years. After class, everyone goes out to drink beer.

Red...I think they're like $3 a bottle for the big champagne-bottle sized. I wish they refrigerated it so I could drink it as soon as I got in the door.

keystone ice = 5.9% alcohell and 11.99 a 24 pack - what more do I need in life and it bongs best in the funnel

Fast Eddy · 07-27-07, 04:25 PM

Here are a couple new one's I tried. The Undercover Shutdown Ale is the best I've ever had. The Hop Stoopid is so bitter it makes you pucker like a lemon.

Otherwise I like anything hoppy and strong from Speakeasy in SF and Stone Brewing in San Diego. 10% is not uncommon.

beno · 07-27-07, 04:30 PM

1. Duvel
2. Lost Coast Brewery Downtown Brown
3. Six Rivers Brewery IPA

Shipyard Export Ale is one of my all time favorites. Or Berkshire Brewery Extra Pale Ale, that stuff is delicious.
