phillybear 364 Posted February 27, 2012 Moosehead. Moosehead. Moosehead. and then whatever else is available. Nothing else comes close. Tastes like a beer should, very clean and almost non existent aftertaste. You can toss down 6 or 7 in just a couple of minutes. Good either cold or at room temperature.

parrot 789 Posted February 27, 2012 My top three beers are 3. my last beer, 2. my current beer, 1. my next beer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DankNuggs 305 Posted February 27, 2012 Stella has been really well marketed, as a premium beer. The French should stick to wine. It's really sour. Well packaged, well marketed .... but about as smooth as a Budweiser. It's a beer meant to make you look cool, that tastes bad .... but be my guest. Prolly the best beers I ever had were in Paris .... full % Carlsberg on tap. Did not have the alcohol content restrictions of American beer and was really smooth. They don't drink Stella in France .... they drink Carlsberg. Stella is the equivilent of keystone light in Europe. British friend calls it 'wife beater' beer. Carlsberg is very good, had it in Amsterdam. Fresh Heinekin on tap was amazing there are well. It is putrid stuff we get over here. Not the same beer.

DankNuggs 305 Posted February 27, 2012 You're selling Stella short. It may be a little overhyped but it is far, far better than Corona and especially Bud. Also, FYI, Stella is from Belgium, not France. I think you would agree that the Belgians know a thing or two about good beer, no? Stella is awful. Tastes like icehouse beer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DankNuggs 305 Posted February 27, 2012 Franziskanner Weiss Bier. If you like Blue Moon you should try this - it's slightly drier and less sweet, also goes well with a lemon. I think this is my favorite beer of all-time. Only problem is that it gives me wicked hangovers, I think from the sugar. Paulaner is in the same class, so is Hoegarden. Blue Moon is like the sh1t version Michelob makes Shocktop which is drinkable as well. Most the hefe's taste pretty similar to me. Good after golf beer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,063 Posted February 28, 2012 The wide variety of microbrews that are readily available makes choosing 3 difficult, but I would go with: Avery Maharaja Imperial IPA Stone Ruination IPA Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout Black Raven Brewing in Redmond, WA also have phenomenal beers but I'm not sure how available they are in other parts of the country. Damn. Now I'm thirsty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herbivore 904 Posted February 28, 2012 Harpoon IPA Ipswich IPA Long Trail IPA Dogfish is great also. I had the 120 minute on tap a while back, was hammered after a few. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pingpong 0 Posted February 29, 2012 peenie, Sounds like you want to avoid anything too hoppy. That means stay away from IPA, Pale Ales, and any beer with the word Hop in the title. Many micro brewers also over-hop their beers, which tends to be an American craft beer standard. Magic Hat, Dogfish, Smuttynose, Victory, all seem to add more hops that I'd prefer. Magic Hat #9 is one exception from your list. Very nice with a slight apricot flavor. You would generally want to try Lagers, Belgians (Dubel, Tripel), and my fave - Octoberfest (Marzen). To give you my top 3 for 9 months of the year: Newcastle Brown Ale Stella Artois Moosehead (for after playing hockey) Come August, when the Oktoberfest beers start coming out, all bets are off and my list is 100% dominated by Oktoberfest beers. Sam Adams is one of the best, as is Dogfish and Stoudts. The German's are also good with Hacker-Pschorr, Spaten, Paulaner. One beer to add to your try list is Hasker-Pschorr Helles Lager. I've never met anyone who hasn't liked it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,576 Posted November 16, 2018 I don't want a beer that someone feels the need to explain to me. I don't want to drink with someone who does explain it. It's beer. But Guinness, if we're counting a stout as beer, gets my vote. Modelo on tap with good Mexican is great too. But I'll drink most domestic swill if it's cold. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,875 Posted November 16, 2018 Franziskanner Weiss Bier. If you like Blue Moon you should try this - it's slightly drier and less sweet, also goes well with a lemon. I think this is my favorite beer of all-time. Only problem is that it gives me wicked hangovers, I think from the sugar. Paulaner is in the same class, so is Hoegarden. Blue Moon is like the sh1t version of these beers. Yards Philly Pale Ale. Totally different - this is a bitter, hoppy IPA type ale. Absolutely freaking delicious. Not really sure I have a third favorite. A few others that I like are Alagash White, Anchor Steam, Newcastle Brown Ale ... Most of the time I drink Corona. If I'm really slumming it I'll go for Rolling Rock or the champagne of beers. Corona Light Yards Philly Pale Ale I cant deink Hefeweizen anymore - ton of calories and gives me a headache.

DonS 3,063 Posted November 16, 2018 Modus Mandarina Brickstone APA Balast Point Skullpin grapefruit IPA Never heard of the first two. Grapefruit Sculpin is one of my favorites as well.
