You live in AZ, Alobar? If not, didn't know you could get Kiltlifter outside of AZ.

Yeah I live in AZ. You can get it outside of AZ. I've had it in New Mexico before, and in vegas. Dunno about anywhere else tho, so maybe it is local to this area, I just assumed you could get it anywhere

I don't really the like fat tire, but that blue paddle they make is one of the best hefeweizens ive ever had.

Hmm...Fat tire, 1554 (basically anything from New Belgium Brewing), Blue Moon. I love Guinness, but I consider that pretty "macro" too. As far as microbrew is concerned: Prescott Brewing Company (PBC) Porter, PBC Liquid Amber, Stone Porter.

Michael Shea's Amber Ale. I would kill to find another case of that.

As far as macro-microbrews, Bass Ale rocks, and Sam Adams' Strawberry Blonde is good if you're in the right mood. I also enjoy Yuengling.

Oh, I also forgot to mention St. Pauli Girl Special Dark. I've only found it in one store, but it's awesome.

Banana bread beer is great

Well, since this is about as vague a description as I could imagine, I'm going to go with Leinie's, especially Honey Weiss. I think its an upper midwestern thing, but I honestly have no clue. If Guiness is a non-macro, I'd have to imagine this is too.

The Berry Weiss from April to September owns, too.

Sunshine Wheat
Franzischkaner Hefeweizen
McEwan's Scotch Ale
and of course...Maredsous.

CrashPat · #49 07-29-2005, 06:21 PM

pretty much any unfiltered wheat. Blue Moon, Easy Street, and Boulevard Wheat come to mind.

Guinness(as long as it's in Ireland...not in US),

Is there something to this, as I really liked it when I was in Europe, but here it has a funky after-taste? I just assumed it was me.

I think Guinness has different formulas for different countries. I live in Ireland now and I can't really taste the difference. I think the export they make for the US is about the same as Ireland, it's just a better drinking experience over in Ireland, no?????

Guinness made for U.S. export is very different.It has preservitives and a higher alcohol content.
