Pic Related, USA

my nigga

Check the catalog

theres only one

Pic related is about as good as it gets for a regular beer here, fairly readily available. Delicious. Better than Punk IPA.

GOAT beer is Pannepot though.

UK here.

In the UK they let you drink beer out of wine glasses?? Who raised you?

Nowt wrong with a wine glass in the absence of some proper beer snifter or tulip glass.

Currently I only have standard tumblers, wine glasses, and glencairns.

top two for me:
Hofbräuhaus hefeweisen
Chimay blue.

Very good choice
I'd go with the Mikkeller breakfast stout.

IPA: Lagunitas Maximus
Stout: Great Divide Yeti
Standard beer: Newcastle

Sweden

Really, I'm in the US now and I should have found tons of amazing beers, but...I dunno, I feel like most beers I try is either some bacon/maple/peanutbutter/whatever stout combos, or just bland IPAs

Current favorites:

Dust Bowl Therapist
Port Mongo
Pliny the Elder

did i fall for the sierra nevada/ipa meme?

i just like it because it goes damn fine with burgers

this is my go-to

Definitely was a favorite of mine when I was still living in Santa Rosa where the brewery's located. Wish they had it down here in Bakersfield.

So few people seem to realize you can have a strong beer that isn't an IPA, at least in California. Not that I don't mind IPAs, but people just won't shut up about 'em in this state it seems...

This or sip of sunshine

New england objectively makes the best beer

AFAIK Sierra Nevada always makes solid IPA:s. Hoenstly I mostly have trouble telling IPA:s apart tho.

I can't pick a favorite but I'm drinking this one tonight. It's a strong gose at 7.5% so kind of like sour saison with salt. It's very good.

Yeah, they do. I've only been able to try Heady, Maine, and Trillium but they do dominate the IPA's. That style is spreading though and there are some other breweries making good NE IPA's. Trillium's are the best I've had but I hear Captain's daughter and Tree House are among the best.

It used to be Lagunita's Imperial Red Ale but I can't find it anymore.

I drink Ballast Point Dorado. Any opinoins? Looking to start getting better IPAs

Don't have a specific favourite beer
Had this the other day and really liked it

Try anything from the east coast or midwest.

Stone Enjoy By
Racer 5
Pretty much anything made by Port or Russian River
Green Flash West Coast IPA, if you want to try a really different hop profile.

Torpedo is solid. I would like it more if I hadn't already drank probably 10 gallons of the stuff over the years. It has a strong flavor, and I'm tired of it.

Who /ice/ here

...

Best I've had recently is the barrel aged Old Rasputin.

Pic related was my go-to whenever I wanted a beer, but the local corner store stopped carrying it.

Make it Natural Ice, and I'm there.
But I would choose the Beast if I could find it. 6.9% is phenomenal.

>6.9% is phenomenal

If you read the thread you'd realize that practically everything mentioned is higher than that, and as an added bonus doesn't taste like dirty dish water.

Based taste OP.

My go-to is Anchor Steam.

And it all costs 5x more.
I'm all for quality craft beer, I just cant afford it right now. And I drink in quantity every day.

As I said in another thread a few days ago, what I do is typically drink a couple decent beers a night (after which my taste buds are pretty much overpowered anyway) and then switch to nursing mid-tier vodka. Overall still cheaper, and you don't have to choke down half a case of swill every night.

Is it okay to doctor up a good beer by adding a shot or two of vodka?

As long as it wasn't a limited release, and you were in line in front of me, and bought the last one, and pulled an asshole move like that in front of my face, sure, do whatever rocks your boat. We all make mistakes along the way, and our taste buds are our only senses that actually become more refined as we age (up to a certain point).

molson Canadian or Carling

What keyboard is that black one? Can't tell if it's a Varmilo or Leopold.
