    The beer thread.
    Ok, well this is exactly what it sounds like.

    Myself? I plan on getting into home brewing sometime soon. But for now I have to buy it.

    Ive never really been much on domestic beers, they get the job done, but I want my beer to be like a four course meal. So I pretty much stick to stout, and my favorite stout is Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout. But Imperial Stout is pretty good too.

    So what is your favorite beer?

    I really like a lot of the Sam Adams beers. Honestly what I like the most is my dad's home brew.

    I like a pretty huge variety of beers but recently a company that has really impressed me is Unibroue. Their La Fin Du Monde and Don De Deiu are amazing.

    I got hooked on Warsteiner when I lived in Germany. The bottled import isn't bad either. Newcastle Brown is also pretty great.

    Unfortunately I can no longer drink beer due to wheat/barley/rye allergy :(

    Best beer I ever had was a St. Sebastian from Belgium. Live yeast beer that comes in a stone crock. I am glad that monks have the time between not speaking and not having sex to make some of the best beers.

    When I was in Alberta is was only Big Rock.

    http://www.bigrockbeer.com/

    Now that I am in Quebec there are so many local breweries, that I tend to just drink what is here... Belle Guelle, Trembly, Boreale and a few others. Except I have a strict NO WHITE BEERS rule in the house.

    (That stuff makes me wretch! )

    If I get nostalgic for the West I grab a case of Sleeman's Honey Brown.

    Picking a favorite beer is like picking a favorite Ball Python morph,no easy task considering the variety. Personally I'm not huge on domestics(I drank enough Bud Light at keggers) Now I like to try new beers but few of my good ol picks would be Imperial third stone brown,There a few Excellent Sam Adams beers(a few crappy ones too...)Good 'ol Heineken or Heineken light:bow::bow:
    Good stuff! U just got me so excited I think I'm going to go have a beer:D

    I'm a fan of the Double Dog breweries Double Pale Ale and the Imperial Stout. Sam Adams' Old Fezziwig is pretty good as well.


    ...and like SCS said...You can't forget about when you have to buy your own beer on a college budget...I opt for keystones in that case. But dang...I love bein home for the holidays

    Memminger Weizen (brewed by monks, I love it, but rare)
    Koenigs Pilsner
    Warsteiner
    De Kriekk (a belgian cherry flavoured high alc percentage stuff)

    I've shoved many a bud light down my gullet when I was in college. When I do drink now its usually wine but if I have to drink beer its bud light or corona.

    My problem with stout kind of beer is... if I drink, I wanna drink a lot and I can not drink more than two stout...:mad:
    The strangest beer experience I had was during the football (soccer) WC two years ago, where I drank around 14 pints and did not even feel anything, guess it was more water than beer...:O But Germany won that game, so I was pleased...:gj:

    Thanks! I was wondering about that stuff... It has the right tint, maybe I'll try it tonight!!! I can't stand regular Budweiser though... for some reason it just tastes horrible to me.

    Murphy's, Boddingtons, Guinness...basically anything deep, full-bodied and dark.

    Guinness is by far my favorite. I was my first and will probably be my last. When I go to my favorite bar (The Penguin here in Boston) I don't even have to ask they know I'm having a Guinness. Kinda sad really.

    Aww. They're like Cheers! They know your name...and your beverage.

    Mm. I want a Guinness right about now.

    My second favorite would be Warsteiner. I guess I am a sucker for German beers. I have been ruined by my father - he started me on the German beers...and now it's just so much harder to settle for anything else!

    More than not, though, I opt for liquor instead. It's easier on my stomach (figure that one out.haha. Beer does a number on heartburn). And mmmm do I love it - in moderation, of course :8:

    Take it easy everyone!

    Never tried. Everyone here goes for Coors light or Bud light. On rare ocassions some Miller light, which is my favorite of the three, if I really had to pick. Ive only had Coors from a keg...and I was working that keg for the party - so I don't think I'd be the best judge of the complexities of its taste ;)

    Is that the brewery in Wisconsin?

    Bush light? That was the beer we drank when we actually had money when I was in school. It was either PBR, Milwaukee's best, or Old style for us.
