watch the lady on the pier at the end!! hilarious!

Young's Special Draught Bitter

Will be enjoying the first of several in 45 minutes, celebrating Andy Murray reaching the Final of Wimbledon- the first Brit do achieve this in 74 years

I'll drink to that

In no particular order:

- Heineken
- Bischoff (Black Lager)
- Sierra Nevada (regular IPA or "Torpedo Extra IPA")
- Red Hook (Longhammer)
- Grolsch
- Rogue (Dead Guy Ale)
- Dogfish Head (60 minute IPA)


Skunk beer and/IPA's are the only way i roll, for the most part.. Nothing is stronger and tastes better..

BTW just for the record, I HATE Guiness and anyone who likes it..

At the moment it's Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye.

My own Rum Porter that I brewed in January was the bomb but I'm down to one last bottle.

Gee thanks...I can't help it,I just like heavy beers.

Sam Adams cream stout is pretty good, so is the porter. It's a tough call on Stout vs Becks dark though. I mean...I really-really like Beck's dark. A nice bottle of Beck's dark and some German Chocolate....YUM!

Have you tried ORVAL?

It is on par with the excellent belgians you mentioned.

Anything by these guys. Namely the Southern Pecan

Heineken?? Seriously?

I never tired Black Lager. Will have to remember that.

I agree Guinness is a serious bust. I think they changed the recipe because I don't remember it being so shitty 20 years ago.

Everything Sierra Nevada makes is good.

Have you tried Dogfish "Raison D'Etre"? It is a unique, super rich complex beer with like 10% alcohol?

Orval is in a class all its own.

Bigfoot will put a hurtin on ya. 11+ % alcohol.

Thick as mud. A very tasty mud no doubt.

Give me Czech pils for summer, Sierra Nevada Torpedo for spring time,
Sam Smith nut brown ale for fall, and Guiness stout for winter and I'm happy.

tell me about it. was in brussels and went to delirium.. was paradise..

absolutely unique beer...but there are more unique beers out there :D

to the Guinness discussion: there are 9 sorts, differing in abv ánd taste... [link to www.ratebeer.com] even more than 9. The higher abv versions are quite good, you gotta learn to appreciate the lighter versions.

Beer taking SoCal by storm:

Hangar24 Orange Wheat Ale!!!!

Made with local oranges, its the ultimate summer & refreshment beer around and oohh so delicious. Started out small and has spread from San Diego to San Fran in a short time. Look it up!

Just tried some Hofbrau Hefe Weizen, so smooth and delicious, and I usually don't like yeasty beers. This one pulls it off nicely though, definitely one of my favorite beers. A very drinkable, gorgeous flavor.

-Duvel
-Yuengling
-Boston Lager
-Molson Golden
-Newcastle

I call no fair because you Germans have 4 steins for lunch....we are light weights and can't manage....I call you a troll because you ask americans what is a good beer!!!! bwaaaahhaaahaaaa!!!
although they actually have some crafty micro brewers buggers that are managing to make some good beer that you masters might still call swill.
the craft brewers are going crazy over here in north america right now

I still like Labatt blue because I can drink about 30 withgout having a toxic fit-haha
