Re: We need a new beer thread
The key to a good beer "tasting" is making sure that each beer that you try is successively higher in alcohol volume.

Re: We need a new beer thread
I must say i have never heard of any of those beers and i have had my far share of good beer. I just got off a Victory kick was drinking that every weekend for the past few months good beer.

Re: We need a new beer thread
Bump. I know next to nothing about good beer, and I want to drink something really good tomorrow night. Someone suggest something delicious and reasonably priced ( < 10 bones for a sixer). I tried Rolling Rock and Sam Addams yesterday and wasn't a huge fan of either.

Re: We need a new beer thread
Any clue what kind of stuff you like? Do you want something smooth or something kind of hoppy? Some pretty decent choices that are widely available these days are Newcastle, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Stella Artois, . . . trying to think of some other specific recommendations. Those are three wildly different beers, by the way. I've liked the beers I've had by Dogfish Head and Rogue. I'm not sure how widely available it is, but Saranac puts out a bunch of different varieties that I generally find to be pretty high quality for the price (typically $6 for 6).
My beer purchasing habits over the last few months have largely focused on picking out something that's on sale that I haven't tried before. There's a lot of good stuff out there. Pick something out that's a little more expensive than Rolling Rock that you've never heard of before and you'll probably be in pretty decent shape. |

Re: We need a new beer thread
I've had the first two on your list, my favorite of those was the barley wine. My favorite barley wine style beer is Sierra Nevada's seasonal Bigfoot Ale. I usually don't like stouts but the Imperial was very good.

Re: We need a new beer thread
Has anyone else collected bottles from the different kinds of beers they have bought or am I the only dork. I have about 150 bottles.
I recently found an interesting beer. Steel City Beer. (it may not be new up north but I am from Texas) It comes in an Aluminum bottle which I think keeps it much colder. Anybody else found this one. As for the beer it ok, it is a lager and I like em dark. I think the Best American Beer has to be Liberty Ale. |
