Beer Topic

Post by **CPT Worm** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 6:47 pm

Okay, I'm trying to broaden my horizons in the beer world.

So, I asking what people are liking out there.

Me? I'm a fan of Budweiser and Keystone Light.

lol, jk jk. dosraider, please don't kill me. 'Twas a joke.

Currently my favs:
-Yuengling Original Lager (oh yeah, AMERICAN beer, baby)
-Blue Moon
-Yuengling Black and Tan (AMERICAN)
-Magic Hat #9 (you guessed it....AMERICAN...microbrewery)
-Asahi Super Dry

Ones I like, but not too much:
-Corona Extra (MEXICAN, ¡olé!)
-Pilsner Urquell
-Sapporo
-Kirin Ichiban
-Sam Adams (AMERICAN)

Ones I don't care for:
-Bass
-Rolling Rock
-Sam Adams Black (nasty aftertaste)
-Guiness (similar awful aftertaste)

...oh, and Keystone Light is good for power hours. It's like water!

I like Barefoot Radlers.
They are yummy.
I don't know where they come from.
That is all.

I don't like beer at all. I got drunk off a really cheap kind once, just to get drunk (I had nothing else because I was underage and mooching from a friend at a party)
It got me feeling pretty nauseous. Haven't touch the stuff since.

My parents really like Ricard's Red, though.

(Oh I actually can almost tolerate Corona. But I haven't tried too many different kinds of beer.)

I dunno ... whatever's cold? In university I would drink Molson Canadian ... or Heineken if I was feeling rich.

Obviously, I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to different brands.

Meh, if I got money to waste on beer(not on getting wasted), I usually drink Becks or Heineken... Otherwise, it's cheap local beer for me!

Did I hear 'beer' ? ..... Yes I did.

Here we usually drink Stella or Jupiler, blond, easy going down.
But when it's party time we're going a bit stronger,
Trappist: (approx 9%)

And of course my favorit beer, Duvel: (8.5%)

Problem with Duvel is that you can't drink it a whole evening, so after 2 or 3 Duvels it's time to switch to something a bit less heavy, as is Rodenbach:(6%)

And folks, drinking is no driving.

Dosraider...You drink out of glasses like that??

What a silly question GAMER, of course I drink that stuff.
It isn't brewed for the rabbits.
But I don't drink it daily, I'm a coffee guy -(black as my soul please, THX)-.
Once in a month or so..... yep.

Re-read it Dossy.
I know you're getting old and your eyesight is failing...
But i asked about the glasses.
Do you drink out of glasses like those in the pictures?
Over here we drink out of these lovely creatures...

I think I saw Duvel at the liquor store the other day. Maybe I'll pick it up.

I know they have Stella, but that's a bit expensive...maybe next time we have a six-pack party.

I want to try this: http://edition.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/ameri ... mate.beer/
However, I asked the guy at the liquor store, and they were $250. I did a double take. I can get a bottle of Dom Perignon for $150...or a couple of Olde Englishes for $6. =P

Newcastle brown Ale... makes a lovely shandy as well

GAMER, in the pub we drink the regular beers in 'normal' glasses, but Duvel ... never. You probably can't poor out a Duvel in a standard glass, too much foam. Same for the trappist (and they are 33cl.....

).

Mr.Worm, the Stella that is exported ain't the same anyway you get here in a pub or that you buy in a store, it's only a shadow of the normal Stella.
Something about laws and exporting alcoholic brewages, and of course exaggerated taxes.
Dom Perignon is somethong for yuppies, pretty bad.
TeH ultimate beer, 25%? Sounds good, but must be a total brain killer.

Yeah, stupid American government so worried about our health that they make breweries pasteurize their beer.

I'm not sure what it was, but over Easter my uncle came over and was drinking beers that were 9%. They smelled really nice and were a dark brown colour. Looked really thick.
That's my story.

Actually, I think it's UN regulations - since local microbreweries here don't have to pasteurize unless they ship internationally. (I met a Scotsman who mentioned certain American beers taste a lot worse in Britain than here, for that reason) I think it has to do with long boat rides and so forth. And, of course, big, cheap companies like Miller and Budweiser pasteurize so their piss-water can stay on the shelves at Wal*Mart longer..

Yeah,the is a big problem for importing beer,but why the hell damage your brain with alcohol,when you can buy weed on the street for no problem and kill yourself with it,eh?
