Chimay Rouge, but only when I’m traveling on expense account. It’s like $8 a bottle.

It is a mood thing….variety is a good thing.

Buttface from CB & Potts is tasty.

there’s an amazing raspberry beer that comes in a wine bottle. Whole Foods has it. I like mild fruity beer like Pyramid Apricot and blueberry.

Sam Adams is the shit. I recently tried summer ale and all i can say is YUM. My favorite would have to be October fest. Im also a big fan of cherry wheat and sam adams light.

Nothing beats an ice cold Cerveza Pacífico

When it’s hot out, I enjoy a nice MIchelada, with a beer like Sol.

Otherwise, Newcastle or Samuel Smith’s Nut Brown Ale.

Oh no, I knew I’d eventually see this question. I’m not sure where to even start. And, I don’t think of myself as very knowledgeable about beer, but I certainly know what I like.

To begin, I love me some hops. And there seems to be a trend of sorts leaning towards “hoppy” beers. Ljs22, mentioned Bells “Two Hearted” which is a great introduction to hops. From there step up to Bells “Hop Slam.” More hops, more fun. Recently I’ve tried one out of Wisconsin by the name of Bitter Woman. But, I don’t know who brews it. My personal face is only found in Minnesota—Furious by Surly. Mmmmmm. I can’t say enough good things about this beer. Bitter? He’ll yes. But with loads of citrus and a hint of caramel.

It’s got to be “FREE BEER”. Don’t care what it is, It always taste’s better if it’s FREE!

Summertime beers:

For those of us in the Midwest: Bell’s Oberon: “An American wheat ale brewed with Saaz hops. Spicy and fruity, Oberon is the color and scent of a summer afternoon.” Somehow, it really does smell like a summer afternoon.

And on the West Coast: Pyramid Curveball: “Inspired by the traditional Kölsch style beers of Cologne, Germany, Curve Ball boasts a clean, crisp slightly herbal taste and a lighter body.” Tasty.

Milwaukee’s Best

jrpowell's avatar

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Fat Tire are my two favorites. And I always enjoy Jubelale when it is available.

Lowenbrow is good I had it in Germany.

peedub's avatar

Wasn’t that a low-brow beer in America, circa 1980’s?

I can’t commit every single time this question is asked I have a new favorite. Now it is Old Rasputin. I guess that’s the joy of life. Sampling different flavors all the time. Guys you should never commit to only one beer. Beer is like art experience it all. Open your mind and your mouth.

pabst blue ribbon. me and my homies lived in a shack in oregon. we called it the pbr ranch or poor boys ranch. you can live off pbr and pizza.

richmarshall's avatar

@gooch, exactly. It is kinda nice living in the Napa Valley of beer.

Gunniess Extra Stout!

richmarshall's avatar

Had a Boddingtons last night…..enjoyed it.

bulbatron9's avatar

Guinness Extra Stout

Sorry about the spelling, but between the Guinness and the iPhone I have no hope!

CHEERS!

peedub's avatar

I like beer medley. Trumer PIls is good with Guiness.

breanne's avatar

I’m another Guinness lover, but I also love Sacramento Brewing Company’s Imperial Stout. We have a lot of good local microbrews in Northern California.

russellsouza's avatar

Sam Adams White Ale

peedub's avatar

How could I forget about my REAL favorite. Perhaps it’s because Hitachino Nest is so hard to find. The White Ale is the shizznit.

syntak's avatar

Russian Empirial Stout

charliecompany34's avatar
