I would expect an 18 year old to say something idiotic like that.

Most American beer is tasteless pisswater. Only good for drinking games and keg parties.

I like dark Belgian (or Belgian-style) high alcohol beers. Delerium Nocturnum and Unibroue 17 (which isn't made anymore :cry:) to name a few.

how old are you? lol. highlife isnt bad, for the money.

i like Lager beers myself: Yuengling/Heineken/ Dos Equis..i love all those.

dont like wheat beers: blue moon/420. just dont like the taste.

havent tried too many of the darker beers personally. i mostly drink cheap beer, gotta save money.

games: power hour/ beer pong/ circle of death/flip cup. all those are fun.

Wow.

I've never quite understood why people drink Bud, miller, michelob or coors for the taste.

The only time I resort to those is

a) its dollar draft night
b) I am chugging beer and don't want to waste decent beer
c) It's free

Hmmm, well here is what I've gone through over the past week or so.

Going from left to right, we hae Flying Dog Golden Ale, three bottles of Dixie, Yuengling Black and Tan, Hoegaarden, and Breckenridge Vanilla Porter. Not pictured is a bottle of Chimay Red. Someone decided to sneak off with the rest after the game last night. Chimay Is probably some of the best beer that you kind find regularly in liquor stores. It's high gravity so that buzz comes on quick. Another really good one that I've been on lately is Blithering idiot. It's expensive, but also another high gravity beer that's worth tasting. It's about $14 for a 6 pack.

im not too picky. i used to like heineken.

i like corona, sapporo, and these two brazilian beers (cant get them here, unless you're in miami) called skol and bohemia. i can drink these 2 all night, they taste unbelievable.

i've tried amstel light, sam adams boston lager and yeungling (sp?) and those were pretty good too.

I'm not sure, but I'll check for you when I stop by today. I do know that I've seen one called Bohemia.

*Full disclosure: I work for Whole Foods that's why I get all these great beers. We've just got so much stuff it's hard to get through it all without becoming a borderline alcoholic.

Anyone here brew beer? I finally finished my first batch last week. It turned out alright, I am going to pick up some more ingredients tomorrow.

I tried to brew my own and I got all the way to the bottling stage. I added a mix of sugar to the second pail in order to get the second fermentation and placed it all in bottles. I woke up a day later and every single bottle exploded in my tub. I had filled 36 bottles and had to clean glass out of my tub for like 2 hours. Ever since then I just didn't try again because I wasted so much money on that first batch.

I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed Harvest Moon last fall when Blue Moon was selling it.

I generally like most beers, as long as it isn't Coors Light, Natural Light, Budweiser, etc.

Oh and I turned 21 last week so I went over to Harry's and picked up a 6 pack of random stuff. The only one I've had so far is Dundee Honey Brown and it was pretty good for a "flavored" beer.

I usually stick to Heineken with meals and just a chill party with the family or a few friends. Bud Light and Bud Lime for parties and drinking games.

Well I have had a lot of good beers over the last month or so and today I had a new one. The New Belgian Brewing Co. is new to the state of GA and just became available this week. I was at work and the beer buyer told me about it and I had to but some. 22oz. bottle was $3.49 and I bought the Mothership Wit and Flat Tire. I also had a bottle of Stone Ruination IPA last night and it's a very hoppy beer. I could still taste it almost an hour after I took the last drink. On the other hand the Mothership Wit had really strong notes of coriander and I could definitely taste it. It's probably not for most, but it will definitely expand your horizons on beer.

Just in case you guys were not aware there are two beer festivals going on this Saturday. The East Atlanta Beer Festival and Draft on Taft. I'm going to the EABF simply because they are going to have over 100 different kinds of beer to sample. The cost is $30 and you get a 6oz. glass to sample as much as you want. A word of caution to the lightweights, take it easy and make sure you get some grease in your stomach. Last year we stopped and ate pizza beforehand and I probably had 20-30 different kinds of beer. The weather is going to be great so no excuse for staying in. I may even stop by Draft on Taft since it goes until 10pm.

Here's the site for more info.

Not one person says Icehouse? Its soo much better and costs about the same as Natty Ice, 30 pack for 15 bucks, and they are 5.5% Alcohol. Well thats for getting drunk for sure, and for parties.

Best beer IMO would be either Becks or Heiniken.

I thought I should update on what I've been drinking. There have been some oddballs out there and I had a great limited microbrew that was sent to me from a friend in Portland. We've got Magic Hat Lucky Kat IPA which is a decent beer. Nothing special and definitely not the best IPA I've had. That crown goes to Bridgeport as far as beer that's easy to find. Then I had the Estrella Damn which is a light beer with not too much hops. It's very close to the taste of wheatbeer with a light fruity taste to it. It was definitely better than I thought it was going to be and I preferred it over the Magic Hat. I've got some Hobgoblin waiting next in line that will probbaly hot the glass on Sunday.

Paulaner Oktoberfest is awesome.

I like La Fin DuMonde "The End of The World", Tres Pistoles, Koenings Quad, Tommy Knocker, Sweetwater Festive Ale(the one week that i can get it cause it sells out evrywhere ahhhh), Terrapin Cream Ale, Newcastle, Dos Equis(both), Negra Modelo(both), Tecate(in the can), usually oktoberfest beers, and if I'm fishing, working in the yard, or playing beer pong I drink "The Beast" which is Milwauke's best because you just cant beat $9.99 for an 18pk.
