Beer!

[Kona]

Ok, I think there is too much seriousness going on here lately.  We really need to be discussing the earth-shaking important issues of the day like what are the top 10 beers in the world.  How can this be a bad discussion??

1. Sam Adams Boston Lager
2. Sam Adams Summer Ale
3. Newcastle
4. Sam Adams White Ale
5. Ziegenbach
6. Guinness
7. Rolling Rock
8. Fire Rock Pale Ale
9. Kona Longboard Lager
10. Pyramid Heffeweisen


Hit me with your best shot!

Now there's a good man!

I'll add Chimay (Blue) to the mix. And for an every day beer, Yeungling Lager.

[LSchune]

Rolling Rock is the best.  Nothing goes better with a steak and loaded potato.

That's why my guys like going out to dinner with me.

My favorite beer so far is Three Philosophers...but I can't get it around here.

I'm not a big beer drinker, but Sammy Adams is friggin good, especially the Boston Lager. Second favorite was probably Dos Equis Special Lager. Yes it's relatively weak, but it's nice afternoon beer. I kinda lost interest in beer a few years back.

Give me a 15 year old single malt scotch and I'm a happy man.

I have hardly drink 10 different beers . I've bee buying different stuff over the last few weeks.

But nothin too light...yuk.

I do like:

Drop Top
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
Alaska Amber
Fat Tire

I will have to say Guinness Draught is the most 'different' of all I have drink. In a good way. Safeway didn't have anything else from Guinness.

It's been a few years since I have drink the Sam Adams Boston Lager, then I found it disgusting. I'd have to bump into it at a friends house and get one for free before I buy any. At that time I hardly drink though.

After 2 tours in Germany, I can only say that American beer "ist scheiße". Can't stand the stuff.

[Tom62]

My favourite beers:

1. Duvel
2. Abbey and Trappist (those monks surely know how to brew good beers)
3. Chimay
4. Hacker Pschor Weißbier
5. Paulaner Weißbier
6. De Koninck
7. Grolsch
8. Dommelsch
9. Hertog Jan
10.  Jever

Beers I don't like:
1. The first pint of any english beer and Heinken. However after 2 pints I don't give a shit anymore how bad it is
2. any kind of light and alcoholfree beer (I hate that stuff)
3. Very dark and bitter tasting beers
4. Stella Artois

The only American beer that I've tried so far and tasted like beer was Sam Adam's Boston Lager.

[SteveS]

One of my all-time favorite was the Alt (served on cask) at Goose Island in the city of Chicago.  Man - was it ever good.

But - my favorite beer?  Easy: the first one I have after work!  :wink:

[LARA]

Corona with lime.  But Rolling Rock and Red Stripe are good, too.

[MommaSquid]

I prefer light 'hoppy' beers to heavier, dark 'malty' beers.  

My faves:

Kalik
Corona light

I recently tried Blue Tongue and it was pretty good.  I also had a light, CA brew that was good, but I can't remember what brand it was.

And I love Ace Pear Cider.  I know it's not beer, but it is yummy!

 

[Kona]

Mahalo for all of your replies.

I must add in the Paulaner Heffeweisen that has such a great woody after taste to it.  With lemon, this is one of the best beers I have ever had!

[LittleEva]

I'm not a big beer connoisseur of beer but I know what I like:

Grolsch
Stella Artois
Blue Moon
Corona

I'm kind of surprised no one mentioned Anchor Steam Beer. Great beer.

[Abaddon]

I enjoy Anchor Steam myself, and I'm glad to see so many lovers of Chimay and other trappist beers!  I often get...

Any Samuel Smith beer
Sam Adams
Chimay (blue mostly, but also red)
I love Hobgoblin
All the Dogfish Head beers I've had (Really liked the 90 and 60 minute IPAs)

And so many others I'm leaving out!  Beer is indeed a wonderful thing!
