Beer Recommendation

[ni4ni]

I am looking to try some new beers. Would like some suggestions.

So far, Shiner Bock seems to be my favorite while I like Blue Moon as well.

Any recommendations?

 

[vi edit]

New Belgium Mothership Wit is one of the better wit styles widely available.
They also make a 1554 ale that's great.

Just look for the New Belgian sampler pack to get both of those and a few others and see what you think.

Blue Moon is good, but Bells Oberon is better......too bad they won't brew it for another 5 months. I hate the goddamned winter!

Drink some Sam Adams Boston Lager. It's fantastic and not too expensive.

I'm going to confine my suggestions to 6 packs that come in at or under under $10 and are readily available here in Michigan, YMMV.

Pete's Wicked Ale
Just about any of the cheaper stuff from Darkhorse, Goose Island, or Dogfish Head breweries.


btw-my beer guy tells me the 2010 Goose Island Bourbon County is coming in this week ($$$), the nectar of the gods I tell you.

That stuff is supposed to be amazing. It's going to retail for $48 a pint around here from what I've heard. I want to try one, but that's damn expensive for something that won't get me drunk lol.

Miller High Life

Don't you want to live the high life???

 

[Fingolfin269]

I'll add a vote for Dead Guy or any of the many other Rogue beers. Hazelnut is my favorite.

 

[BoberFett]

Southern Tier if you can get it in your area.

 

[sjwaste]

Beast Light.

 

[Kirby]

Chimay

It's all about a good ale, but the tastes are so subjective it's almost impossible to recommend one, if you try some London's Pride, that's a favourite of mine, but I think you can only get it near me, my advice is go to a beer festival and try some if you can, also if you see a bottle of beer that has the word "Light" on it, turn and walk in the opposite direction.

London Pride is Fullers right? We can get that here on this side of the pond. I love the London Porter. Great beer...kinda pricey over here though. Around $10 per 6 pack.

It could be, I'm not so good with breweries. Yeah when I was in america I saw how expensive ales were.... Most unfortunate, one night I got stuck with a Miller "High Life" how they get away with calling it High life, I have no idea. Also you can't wack a nice pint o' Guinness, that being said it does not taste right over your side of the pond.

 

[superccs]

Pacifico and Zeigenbock are both good from your shiner and b moon tastes.

 

[shiner]

Pick any of these....

Except the Landshark and Corona...I had to buy those at the request of some pussies.

Yeah I agree with most of that, Sam Adams beer is probably the best drink america makes!.

Good? Yes. The best? No.

 

[HAL9000]

Good? Yes. The best? No.

What would you say is better?

 

[shiner]

What would you say is better?

Any number of things....just locally I can think of 2 micro brews that are better.

I still have a pint from last year. If I remember correctly it was $25. Oh Jeez I'll be peeling the price tag off that before the wife sees it.
