There is only one drinkable beer on the face of the whole earth:  Guinness.  Anything else is just piss water.

Free.  Any of the above.

I like MGD.  I know it's piss, but I don't care.

I LOVE beer from the tap. Otherwise I prefer bottle, but cans will do. :-)
My favorite, I would have to say a cross between Stella Artios and Sam Adams Light. Both, so smooth. :cheersmate: :cheersmate:

LOL!

Best beer I ever tasted was from a microbrewery somewhere in Cincinnati back about 92. Place was a combination bar/restaurant down some street of bars and nightclubs. It was called Steamboat something or 'nother. It was fairly dark and had the taste of a regular pilsner with the full body of a darker beer. That stuff was great! Too bad we lost the client and I never ended up back in Cincinnati. I could drink a keg of that stuff.

What I love about beer is that you could have a different one every day for damn near the rest of your life.  VARIETY, people.

That being said, when I have tomorrow (today) off and no longer am carrying the pager, I'll bust out a couple of Bud Lights.

Or perhaps a Long Trail Blackbeary Wheat.  Or an Arrogant Bastard.  Or Shipyard Pumpkinhead Ale.  Or an Anchor Steam.

Whatever the hell I feel like, how's that grab your ass?

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

Any good Pilsner, preferably German or Czech, on tap if possible but bottles are cool too.  But free (Almost) anything is always welcome.

Miller Lite is my back up beer.  The beer I drink when there is nothing other than Coors or Bud.

If I am eating Mexican Food, usually a Pacifico, or Negra Modelo.

If I am eating Sushi it's a Kirin or Sapporo.

If I am eating pizza, I'll have a Peroni.  

German food?  Ah, well, then it would be a Spaten Octoberfest, Julius Echter, Spaten Optimator, Bitburger, Pilsner Urquell....

In my beer fridge right now?

Spaten Octoberfest
New Belgium Hoptober
Saint Arnold's Lawnmower
Miller Lite
New Belgium Fat Tire
Boddingtons
And, Guinness.  I always have Guinness.

Rogue is the bomb. I found a place that carries American Ale since my other place stopped carrying the Rogue line, including the "Yellow Snow".

Beer glorious beer!


Delirium Tremens, but it's gotta be on draft. It's just not the same in the bottle. Not as strong and it's hoppier, which I don't like. On draft...oh, like liquid joy. Happy happy joy joy.

Various other high-alcohol, non-bitter, non-hoppy brews. The last is hard to find with a high alcohol content. One of my favorite of two local beer distributors has 6 beers/ales on draft every week in addition to their huge bottled selection; you make a one-time purchase of a 62-oz jug for $5 they call a "Growler,"  they then they fill it and so you have access to all these different draft beers (they change them every week).

Sol beer from Mexico is one of my choices when I want a middling 5'ish% alcohol beer with that crisp, completely non-hoppy taste you want on a hot summer's day. True_blood, Stella Artois also gets my nod for a summer beer you can just down like water.

And...believe it or not, Miller High Life. Not MGD, which is too sudsy, not lite, which is...lite....but good 'ole MHL. Very cold.

Me, I drink Labatt's Blue, high test, not light.  In a can, because it's a bitch returning the bottles.

That's too much to keep track of.  What if I want a Dos Equis with my kimchee? :bawl:

I thought it was common knowledge that Sapporo is merely Budweiser licensed to a Japanese brewer.

I didn't know that! But I never liked Sapporo and, now that you mention it, for the same reason I never liked Bud--it's too sudsy.

I did, but one of the sushi places I go only sells Sapporo.  And I have an adverse reaction to Sake.

And Godot...with you on the hoppiness, I don't care for it.  My major reason for not being keen on fest beers or IPA, really.
