root beer then hoegaarden.

Guinness is about all I can say I "like," but I have preferences if I must decide.

Michelob Amber Boch is good if it's available. If I have a choice of cheap beers I go with Coors. Beyond that, I'd rather not pick from a lot of bad stuff. Whiskey, please.

stella

sarramkrop 01.07.2009 04:45 PM

Thank you. Coors is my cheap choice as well, and people always argue me on this. It's the only cheap beer that I can have 4 or 5 of and not be ready to puke. Well, that or High Life.

That being said, I prefer Bells (just about any type), Shiner Bock, Guinness, Goose Island, and of course, Red Stripe.

T&B - Yeah, I know that Efes ain't exactly a classy beer, bu I really do dig it's taste. It must be my South London idiot root showing.

In other news, I also Leffe (Belgium), and whatever the name of that Belgian cherry beer is.

Or Coopers.

davenotdead 01.07.2009 09:02 PM

haha, i wonder how much time i've spent sitting in the bottle shop deciding which aussie beer to buy. Cooper's is the best though, i think.

stuff i usually drink if i have a choice:
Guiness
pilsner urquell
stella
anchor steam (can't always find it)
cheapie: Miller


sometimes:
Sam Adams
Corona

pbradley 01.07.2009 09:50 PM

There is a Czech beer that I really like but I forgot its name.

Of course Guiness. Um, Blue Moon is a good for a more berry like beer.

Sierra Nevada and Anchor Steam are also common choices.

RdTv 01.07.2009 10:10 PM

Guinness
Czechvar
Staropramen
Starobrno
Bell's Oberon Ale
Heineken
Red Stripe
Stella

On the cheap side:
Carling Black Label ($10 for 24 and it taste good)
Amberbock
Coors
Miller High Life

davenotdead 01.07.2009 10:23 PM

Oh yeah! My friends got a keg of that once, and it's the only time I've had it. It pretty much tasted like Coors, as far as I could tell.

I'm a hoppy IPA man all the way and this is the best I've ever had....

 


Hop Ottin' IPA is as hoppy as they come. The name means "hard working hops," in Boontling, and that tells it all. Generous additions of high-alpha Pacific Northwest hops added during a vigorous boil, plus traditional dry hopping, with whole hop cones, give this ale a delicious citrus aroma, and an intense hoppy bite. This IPA is a hop lover's dream.

Man! With all the great American microbreweries across the country, it absolutely FLOORS me that so many of you people still choose to drink swill like Michelob, Stella, and even Guiness. People, COME ON! There are so many tastier choices out there.

when you insult guinness it offends me personally:(

gmku 01.08.2009 11:46 AM

Sorry, but Guinness really isn't that good. Try a smaller American label's stout, something from Flying Dog or Rogue, or even the Sierra Nevada Porter, and you'll notice a huge difference. Guiness is bland by comparison.

From what I hear, the original Guinness in Great Britain is much better than what's imported into the US. I could be wrong.

I used to enjoy mixing Guinness with Bass Ale for the original Black & Tan !

Glad you enjoy that Hop Ottin' gmku, another tasty IPA if you can find it is...

 


From New HampSURE !!! :D

GOLD MEDAL WINNER - Best American Beer 2004 Great British Beer Festival
“Hands-down one of the best American-style India Pale Ales ever crafted. This brew is lip smacking, with an aggressive and pungent grapefruit hop character. Wonderfully balanced and insanely drinkable.” - Jason & Todd Alström, the Weekly Dig's Beer Highlights of 2004

gmku 01.08.2009 11:57 AM

I'll look for it. South Carolina is problematic for always finding the great beers in stock, though one or two places around here do a fair job of stocking their shelves w/ great American micros.

I travel a few times a year to Denver, which of course is beer heaven.
