Beer

I'm like hiennies and amstels





and natty lights when i was in school - cheap and get you rocked!
 
Fat Tire is a decent beer, it has a reall "biscuity" smell and a caramel taste with a good hop balance. In truth, it's a pretty boring beer, but easy to drink a sixer of. I have heard tons of regular beer drinkers rant and rave about this beer, but once you try what else is out there, it is quickly relegated to the realm of average.



The great thing about Fat Tire (and beers like Sam Adams, Bass, Newcastle, Boulevard, Guiness, etc.) is that they serve as an introduction for the millons of macrobrew drinkers to the world of specialty beers.
 
anyone a fan of black & tans?



I like to mix guiness drought with lone star.



Lonestar is "decent" but my favorite thing about them is those riddles on the bottle caps....they blow my mind when I have had a few too many!

I find the best thing about Sam Adams is that when you go to a restaurant and ask for the beer list, they'll say, "Bud, Bud Light, Coors, Coors Light, Miller, Miller Light, and Sam Adams." So there's something there that's drinkable.



I find Sammy's specialties to be pretty decent, and Sammy himself to be decent, too. Hey, if someone can make a million cases of good beer, they should do it I say. It's a good beer that fares well when the label is covered up. Sure there's better, but Sammy will do in a pinch.

Just poured some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. This was one of the first micro's introduced to me around 97 in CA. I've always liked this brew. This is one of the finest American Pale Ale's around. Highly Recommended.

Totally agree with you, I order SA at restaurants all the time. Not a huge fan of their seasonals, though. Usually Mexican restaurants will have Negra Modelo, which is pretty good. A local Thai place only has two beers: Bud Light and Paulaner Hefeweizen, guess what I get? Sorry for my beer snobery coming through, guess it's time for a 40 of Natty Light.

LOL, no need to apologize! I'm in there too, and it's not snobbery as I see it; it's drinkability! Sammy is a DRINKABLE and enjoyable beer.

In Brooklyn, NY there is a noted microbrewery that supposedly makes great beer.

The Brooklyn Brewery -- Garrett Oliver is the master brewer, if it's the place you're thinking of.
 
Cheap and decent:

Schlitz

PBR



I realise older folks who got trashed on this stuff will grimace in horror at those two, but on a warm day, they do go down nice.



What else I'm drinking:



Belhaven

Beck's

Newcastle

Sam Adams IPA

Guinness (cans)

Stella Artois (on a kegerator)
 
I don't know a lot of them. What I like:



Imported:

Samuel Adams (beers from the USA are imported for me;))

James Page

I don't mind coors, bud, miller. Heineken is a good one



Domestics:

- Indio

- Negra modelo

- XX

- Sol (very cheap, but a good one. One dollar buys you a "caguama", which is a bottle of almost half gallon)

- Bohemia

- Pacifico (very good one, available in the USA)



However, none of them can compare to what the "Cerveceria Montejo" in Merida, Yucatan, MX makes.

- Montejo (my top light beer)

- Leon negro (black lion) - This IS the beer for me. A dark beer so rich and tasty without being too strong that I just need to have it in stock. Not available where I live, so I order the cases directly from a distributor in Merida.



Salud!

That list are one's for me to try out. I like the Anchor Steam, so I'm pretty sure I'll like the Liberty Ale, just want to see what other's thought about it. Thanks.
 
Here's what I ordered last week:



Saison Dupont

Rochefort 8

Fuller's ESB

Dogfish Head World Wide Stout

Dogfish Head 90 Min. IPA

Aventinus

Stone Arrogant ******* Ale



Also ordered some new glassware.



Can't wait to try these new brew's out.





I tried some of the Hoegaarden Belgium White Ale, this is some of the coolest brew I've ever had, a must if you can get it.

Well, I think XX is by far the best Mexican beer I've had, especially the dark.

:woohoo:
