EuroAussie Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Well, Wiley, i live in the worlds biggest beer consumption country of Czech Republic, and we are spoiled with outstanding brews. But have to say the flagship Pilsner Urquell is my favourite, has this wonderful rich, almost honey glazed pilsner taste to it, topped off with a thick, inviting foam. But also from my home town of Adelaide, Australia I love Coopers Pale Ale, one of the last family owned, but mainstream breweries left in Australia. A hihgly refreshing, fruity yet rich taste. Great for the Aussie summer ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMichaelG Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Sam Adams Summer Ale. Tasty. Also, just about any micro brewery that serves fresh made beer. Nothing like it. Mostly blondes and pales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogeye Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Moose Drool. Anyone that has ever been to Bozeman knows it. We just get a purty girl moose and walk her by some young bulls and there you go.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfender Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Red Strip in the summer, Guinness in the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 We are well served by the Woodstock Inn microbrewery. Fav tipples: Pigs Ear (Brown Ale) and Pemi Pale (I.P.A.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devellis Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 One of our local breweries (Carolina Brewery) has an Imperial Stout that is absolutely fabulous. Their Flagship IPA and Copperline Amber Ale aren't too shabby, either. Smithwicks (pronounced Smithiks) is a very good Irish ale. Boddington's and Abbot Ale are among my favorite English brews. I tend to prefer the Irish/Scottish/British stuff to the Continental brews, although some of those are excellent, too. America was a beer wasteland for a very long time. Now, with all the local boutique breweries, there are all kinds of tasty treats on tap just about anywhere in the country that you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I am not a fan of 'real' beer, but love lager... Peroni and then Budvar (the real Budweiser) are my favourites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayville Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA for special times. Smuttynose Shoals Pale Ale more usually at home, Guiness in the pubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickax Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Love Smithwicks! Just finished a 6 pack of Big Sky's Moose Drool - very tasty. Big fan of the local breweries - Boulevard is making a great variety of beers - Pale Ale, Double Wide IPA, Bully! Porter and my recent fav, the 6th Glass. It's a dark Belgian Strong Ale with a 10.5% alcohol content. Another local brewery is the Free State Brewery. They make an excellent Copperhead Ale and an Ad Astra Ale. Just like Guitar building is in a golden age, brewing beer is also in a golden age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA for special times. Smuttynose Shoals Pale Ale more usually at home, Guiness in the pubs. Yeh, that's a good IPA, right up there with the Pemi and Long Trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincentw Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 love Smithwicks. Dogfish Head is making some great beers these days. Great for slow drinkin, but if I'm gonna be at a barbeque for hours and I'm gonna drink more than a few, then I just stick with Coors Light.

TommyK Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Michelob Amber-Bock F.K.A Michelob Dark. Dark, rich, full of body, but with no bitter after taste. I had a bottle of Black Cauldron that is a very close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boozeball Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I've been on a Belgian kick for the last few weeks. It is an expensive hobby for sure, but here is what I have been drinking: All of these are retail prices, most bars don't carry a lot of Belgians due to high cost and low profit margin. Orval Trappist Ale- $5 per 12oz bottle Duvel Belgian Strong Pale Ale $4 per 12oz bottle Flying Dog Raging ***** $14 per six pack Ommegang BPA $10 per 750ml bottle or $5 per pint at the bar Boulevard Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale $12 per four pack Sierra Nevada Ovila $11 per 750ml bottle Of course when I'm not drinking Belgians I'm usually drinking a hoppy IPA. Bells Two Hearted Ale, Surly Furious, Lagunitas IPA, and Sierra Nevada Torpedo are some of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
