Let's Have A Serious Talk About Beer

Post by Ult_Sm86 »

So...

I love a good beer. And for me, in terms of American beers, (and not the exquisite craft beers either,) Samuel Adams seems to take the cake.
Don't get me wrong, I love a good Sierra Nevada or when I'm super shiffaced at a party, a simple PABST (It has the Blue Ribbon, damnit!)...

but something about Sam Adams is just right.

My favorites are either in the Imperial Series or in the Seasonal beers.

Ole Fezziwig (for the Holidays) is tremendous, but I can never turn down a good Octoberfest either...


What are some of your favorites?

Oh beer, I am actually really rather picky about beers and I'm almost afraid that Cass and Hite exposure has managed to put me off of beer altogether but I'll give a recounting of my usual beers in any case.

Now the crappy beers I drink because they're handy when I'm out most of the time would be Newcastle and Amber Bock. I'm not crazy about them but I don't have anything against them either and generally enjoy them so there's that.

Now, across the street from where I used to live there was what I basically referred to as the bar of many beers. there was more beer than I could possibly manage to shake a stick at and my top among them would definitely be Pliny the Elder. Even if you don't care for beer I would recommend you try it. That was the rare bit of gold among some truly horrible things, however. I'm afraid I've forgotten most of their names but I can honestly say I have tried a beer that would have made a fantastic soy sauce.

I just want you to know I now have an image of you shaking a stick at beer and saying
"Oh you, beer!"


Anyways -- that sounds amazing. Pliny the Elder, eh?


What are some beer/food combos? I've noticed beers like Guinness go well with meat/potato type dinners (without being the least bit prejudice there too, I have found that a Guinness is much like a meal itself, and should be consumed with other hearty feasts).


I've been told that if you microwave a bottle of Guinness it turns into a loaf of Irish Soda Bread, that's how filling it is.

I like to drink beer and get wasted on hard liquor. I don't have a respect for hard liquor like I do for beer. Is that strange? It feels very un-American...

So...

Who else would drink a Super Hero themed beer?

I know I would. Even if this guy was the mascot. OY! :doh!

All beer tastes like soap to me. Which is one of life's cruel and bitter ironies, considering where I live...

I really like Dogfishhead Brew's Chateau Jiahu

I want to try their other Ancient Ales, but they are rare and are never in stock. D:

LOL! Good call NeXus! I would imagine an eternal paradise would have the most righteous beer! LOL!

Dogfishhea is supposdely awesome, I haven't tasted it myself.

Got some of Sierra Nevada's seasonal beer "Celebrations" for friends this year (got a bear, slapped a bow on it, and called it a Christmas gift, being I'm broke). They enjoyed it, I enjoyed it, so you can qualify that as a tasty beer.

One year, I gave my husband a bottle of Moose Drool for Christmas, secured it to a branch of the Christmas tree, and he got a beer in a tree. We kind of have this Great White North thing going on, I guess.

Anyway, yeah. Moose Drool, disgusting name notwithstanding, is pretty good stuff.
