Favorite Beer

[strike-3]

I don't think that I could pick any one beer as my favorite, but lately I've been drinking a lot of Bud Light Lime. It's great while grilling out, etc. However, I'm not so sure I will like it as much when it is colder. Just can't see it as a good football tailgating brew.

I agree on the BLL, I'm more of a Bud Select kinda guy but I will drink anything Bud..

A few of my favorites right now are Kentucky Bourbon Barrell Ale, Samuel Adams Seasonals (Spring and Summer), Bell's Batch 8,000, Bell's Oberon, and Samichlaus.

 

My favorite at the moment is Samichlaus, which is kind of odd because it is a Christmas beer, but it was just too good to pass up. This beer is a Bavarian Dopplebock with some extraordinary flavors. It also is said to be the strongest lager in the world at 14% alcohol by volume. This beer is brewed just once a year in Zurich, Switzerland, on December 6, and then aged for ten months before bottling. If you appreaciate some of the more complex beers, this beer certainly lives up to its claim of being "The World's Most Extraordinary Beverage".

I may catch a lil crap for this, but I do enjoy some Woodchuck hard apple cider around the holidays. Got a tradition with my buddy where ever Christmas we get some of that and watch Ernest Saves Christmas.

Does your love include the Summer Shandy (a nice beer-lemonade mix)?

 

I had it for the first time the other day. It actually reminded me of the Sunset Wheat with just a little more citrus flavor. It was pretty refreshing (we drank them after moving furniture.)

 

I wouldn't want it all the time, but I guess that's why it's a seasonal offering.

 

For the record, I've had:

 

Red Lager

Honey Weiss

Sunset Wheat

Oktoberfest Lager

Big Butt Dopplebock

Summer Shandy

 

And would like to try the others, I've just never seen them around here.

Bud Light in a bottle

 

You and my wife, she will not drink out of a can and will not drink anything but BL.

I believe its only sold in a select few states. However, I was in Tennessee this weekend and brought home a couple cases. I love it!

 

I thought you couldn't get Yuengling west of the Appalachians. I usually have my brother pick some up for us whenever he and his wife visit their family in Virginia.

 

My faves include:

Yeungling

Shiner Bock

No. 1 fave is HofbrauHaus Oktoberfest

Anchor Steam's pretty good, as is one we discovered while in Maine called Shipyard.

 

I've always found Lone Star to be pretty good as a low-cost option while in Texas, until I discovered Shiner Bock. LS still is better than Bud, IMO, and LS Light isn't bad either.

[BuddyBW]

Alaskan Ale or anything from Allagash. Additionally, for those that mentioned Blue Moon, I would strongly suggest Hoegaarden. Last but not least, the best website I found for discovering new beers is Beer Advocate. You can search for the highest rated beers (by the users) by country or by style. It's a great tool for finding new beers in the styles you enjoy.

What, are Red, White and Blue, Goebel. Sterling and Cook's Goldblume not good enough for you?

I'd never heard of Anchor Steam prior to visiting San Francisco, but they had it on tap at the hotel bar, I know it's pretty expensive.
