Great White Ale
I need to try a Yuengling in December heared its good.
Yeah, I've heard the same. Sam Adams is meant to be good too.
I was just trolling with the Bud Light comments folks...
I do not think I can take beer critique from someone not creative enough to come up with a internet site handle. I am frankly amazed that he has the creativity to appreciate the VX. He sounds like an accountant who would drive a 4 door sedan until it is fully depreciated
Hey now. I am an Accountant. Well, by degree I am but I acutally am an Internal Auditor. Of course I am selling mine so......
My list would probably include:
1) Sam Adams Cherry Wheat
2) Leinenkugels (Any)
3) Sam Smith's Immperial Stout
4) 1554
Cape Cod Red (local microbrew) served in an frosty 16 oz mug followed by a few more.
Had the opportunity to get to both Bevmo & Total Wine in Phoenix today.....(it was "only" 108 ...delightful OMG :rollo2:)

Look out for Bird Dog Brewery!
Hubby & I had the neighbors over, made an evening of it tasting some new (to us) beers that were mentioned in this thread. I found a place in Phoenix that has an entire long row of single bottles, so picked up some that were mentioned here and some that looked interesting and a few six's of some favorites. A very good time was had by all....:bgwo:
:_beer::_beer::_beer::_beer::_beer:
Great White Ale - a bit hoppy, nice taste, enjoyed a 6 pack!:yeso:
Blue Star - fairly hoppy flavor, but pretty smooth, have a few bottles left :yesb:
Sierra Nevada Wheat - VERY hoppy & bitter, not my favorite:noo:
Sierra Nevada Kellerweis - 10+, Smooooooth, excellent flavor, nice amount of hops, could be my new fav :drool2:
Pranqster - Big after taste, not so good,:thumbdn:
Blue Moon - usually my favorite, nice, smooth, a bit hoppy :thumbup:
Honey Moon - nice seasonal blend, nice smooth hoppiness, a touch sweet :rotate:
Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat - WEIRD taste :_wtf::_huh:, none of us could identify it. Aromatic, smooth, tasted a bit like annis (licorice flavor), blech!;puke2;
Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss - 9+, VERY smooth, not that hoppy, very pleasant & light :drool2:
Gordon Biersch Hefeweizen - excellent, smooth, very good:grino:
I knew if i went though the pages i would see someone who likes fosters. :p To be honest mate there is a reason we export that.....swill....
I am a big fan of Blonde, its low cab but that means you just drink twice as much :yesgray:
edit: i have just been informed that your "fosters" is not the fosters we have over here. the fosters you drink is our crown lagar....now i know why you guys go on about fosters! i shall inform the masses and we will no longer make fun of you :D
I am not a big beer drinker, but I did just go to the Telluride Blues and Brews festival this past weekend (http://www.tellurideblues.com/). I used to live in Telluride and try to get back as often as I can, and a three day festival with blues music, three hours of free beer tasting from some of the finest micro brewerys on Saturday, and a beautiful mountain setting is as good a reason as any.
I've been eight times now, and over the years I have found some really good beers. One year there was a chocolate stout from a small brewery here in Colorado that was really good. Strange, but good.
If you like beer and blues music you should try and make it out one year.....I'll see you there.

We brewed a 2-Harted Clone...it was pretty mild in flavor...we entered it into a local contest...cheers!
So i went to a beer festival a couple weeks ago and have been thinking about a nice cold beer all day so i thought i'd revive this thread :D Heres something for the dads....

I can' drink beer. I get severely ill. Tyramine in it makes me get migraines no matter what. 24-48 hours of pure hell.
ah man, THAT SUCKS !!!!!!!!!!! :(
No kidding. Beer is everywhere. Fifths/handles/pints/half pints are not. I have been saying this for years to my friends. So I finally gave in and said here watch. Sure enough it was about 36 hour long episode of pure sickness. Its unbelievable how bad it is.
I'm curious,
Do you also feel bad after eating foods like bread or pasta? I've realized that I have gluten intolerance and therefore, my body does not process or break down foods made with wheat.... now you have me reading up on tyramine... I get nasty headaches from just a beer or 2, so I gave it up... just isn't worth the pain for a 1/2 buzz ;)
Thanks Crotchrocket, that's just....just....mmmmmmmm.

Bart
Luna/J, yeah, I feel you. For some reason, I LOVE wheat beers the most, but my digestive system DOES NOT. I don't get headaches, but man do I get the poopies. :rotate: I try to not drink excessive amounts of wheat beer, despite my tongue's affinity for it.
Bart
Thanks Crotchrocket, I've always loved a cold beer from the bottom shelf:)
Probably because you were too drunk to remember.:confused:Quote:
I have no response to that.
Saw this thread and couldn't resist. :_beer:

As far as beer goes for me, the darker the better. Of course Guinness is the standard. Though my grandfather used to brew some of the best Irish dark I have ever had. Stuff would give you a buzz with just a whiff.:yesb:
Here's todays inspirational "i can put a picture of a scantily clad hottie because its beer related" picture :D (sorry female members!)
