I live a good witbier - cant drink too many of them but a cold pint is great. I find this kind of beer and Hefeweizen walk a fine line with being sweet vs too sweet. This one is great - excellent golden color and slight orange / coriander aftertaste. Terrific summer beer.

Toppling Goliath - Psuedo Sue Iowa beer that is a fantastic Pale Ale. This brewery makes some of the best IPAs.

 

Lagunitas - IPA This is one of my go to beers when going out. Since it's owned by InBev now it's available everywhere and it's a solid beer.

 

Leinenkugel - Summer Shandy Love it during the summer and can crush them all day without getting really drunk.

 

InBev - Busch Light Living in Iowa this is the beer I grew up with and is still my go to long distance drinking beer. If I'm tailgating then I'm drinking this.

Anyone in the Concord NC area go here www.highbranchbrewing.com/

I know the owners and brewers. I've liked almost every brew they've tapped. They do cans on Friday

I need more information about your preferences. Are you looking to avoid bitter beer face?

Southern Tier Brewery Live on tap if you can find it

 

https://thealerunner.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/southern-tier-live.jpg

 

And yes, I'm aware that's a bottle

 

Randomly got asked the other day what would be my death row meal...Southern Tier 2XIPA was the drink.

 

I pretty much only drink IPA's. Clown Shoes Space Cake Double IPA is good, but pricey.

Founders Day All Day IPA is good day drinking choice.

I probably wouldn't care to talk politics if we did, but I would certainly drink beer with you :thumbsup:

 

I avoid politics for the most part outside of here. Would gladly sit down for a beer with you.

Craft beer drinking is probably my most expensive hobby. I almost always have a pretty good selection of craft beers in my fridge. Rarely ever drink light beer at home.

Lately I've been a huge fan of NE style IPAs. They are very hazy and juicy. I love them.

Find some treehouse

I'd love to. My cousin has been drinking that lately and says it's amazing. One of the local breweries makes a very good one and even got named the best IPA in Iowa. They some a couple really good NEIPAs. Barn Town in Des Moines also has some fantastic beers.

Pacifico is such a solid easy brew. Also I love the Kona Co. We have Redhook brewery right outside my workplace. We get their Longhammer IPA regularly for our oncampus bar. Too hoppy for me but when we get the Big Wave or Longboard from Kona (a partner brewer through Craft Brew Alliance) so good.

Miller Lite - Tastes Great but at the same time its less filling.

Schaefer Beer - This the one beer to have when you're having more than one.

Old Milwaukee - This beer tastes as great as its name

If any of you like fruit/lambic beers and you're in Wisconsin make sure you try some of New Glarus' offerings. They make some of the best.

Being in San Diego there is a craft brewery or tap house on every corner and a new one opens up every week. Too hard to keep up so I just get different ones all the time. I like Newcastle and blue moon best.

Fulton Brewery (out of Mpls) is great. They've expanded into NE and IN. I like Lonely Blonde (Blonde Ale), Standard (Lager), and HopStar (Session IPA).

 

:thumbsup:

I've had a few of their brews and I was impressed.

Not sure how I went this many years without having one, but I had my first PBR about 2 weeks ago. My father in law loved it. Cracked one open about an hour after he passed away.

I got drunk for the first time in a year or so last night. Found a store that sells San Miguel here in china. I love that stuff.

 

Come Sunday, will be in the phils and have its stronger brother, red horse.

I usually drink Corona Light or Amstel Light these days but I like to mix in a hazy pale ale sometimes. The Juice by Peak Brewing is awesome. Very hoppy with a citrus aftertaste and awesome murky orange color. 

:cheers:

Never heard of it or seen it. If it’s sold locally, there’s one place that would have it...will check for it. :cheers:

Sierra Nevada's 'Hazy lil Thing' is the best selling hazy IPA in the country right now. I'm not a big IPA guy but it's pretty good. :thumbsup:

Hoegaarden might be right up your alley if that's your thing.
