Default Re: Best Lager/Ale at Grocery Store

Goose Island "Demolition" (seasonal, a Belgian ale, might be regional to Chicago)

Newcastle Brown Ale

Sam Smith's Nut Brown Ale (Taddy Porter is nice too, and technically an ale...these may not be available at your grocery store.)

(Newcastle is always available at my local grocery store, and cheaper than the other two.)

Of course we do. You probably would claim that it doesn't taste the same, however.

And Sierra is good, but how is it running away with this poll?

[/ QUOTE ]
Because its so much more widely distributed than many other beers. We just got Bridgeport here a couple weeks ago, in the grocery stores at least.

My "other" vote was for Guinness.

You are obviously from the northwest but waht is available in grocery stores varies widely.

In Columbus Ohio there was never anything better than guinness available in a grocery store. Top 3 were probably guinness corona and newcastle, but I never did my beer shopping at the grocery store for that reason.

In Vegas the best selection I've seen outside Lee's is maybe Fat Tire, Pyramid Curveball and Pyramid Hefeweizen.

In Seattle the standard obviosuly goes way way up. Sunshine wheat, Rogue Dead Guy Ale, The new belgium trippel perhaps.
