I Love Beer

I cannot understand how one could not love this beverage of beverages. Rich, heady, and full-bodied brew, balm to the soul of man, woman and child. Liquid grain, the wholesomeness of mother nature, tweaked to intoxicating perfection.

I have a few favorites:

Newcastle Brown Ale (Edinburgh, Scotland)
The nearest thing to perfection, balanced, dry and full of magical deliciousness. (The Scots are indeed the penultimate expression of anglo culture.)

Shiner Bock (Shiner, Texas)
A sweet surprise from the middle of nowhere, a handy companion on a lonely night. Keeps one relaxed and avid, a charming combination. Comfort beverage for denizens of the central plains.

Bass Pale Ale (Burton on Trent, England)
When I'm in the mood, nothing else will do. Sharp, and sweetly solid, this beer has no rival when paired with aged gouda. Versatile and always a pleasure.

There are so so so many others that I have not mentioned because it's just overwhelming. Hep me.

Remind me of those forgotten and far away, exotics, once in a lifetimes, old stand-bys and passions that this sophisticated elixir of our earth inspired in you. Let's take a journey, the first pitcher is on me.

Guinness- The meal in a bottle!

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and there Torpedo is priceless, "its so good once it hits your lips..........."

If the first pitcher is on you than I am game.


I like Grolsch and imported beer....I am not a big fan of our domestic here in Canada.
I can't stand Guinness.
Drinking warm beer should be a sin.


These days I have been drinking Bavaria.

My homebrew

If ever in corpus i will get ya beered up

I don't drink anymore, but when I did, I was fond of Molson Golden Ale.

I think this calls for a little tribute

I'm easy. There's not a whole lot a won't drink, but I'm fond of Boulevard wheat beer from here in the US.

Anyhow, beer lovers - enjoy!:

I like a black and tan with 1/2 Harp 1/2 Guinness, but I find I usually skip the Harp after a while and go for broke. When I first tasted it, it reminded me of warm bologna, an acquired taste-but once you got it, you got it!

Cheers!

If you live where it gets insanely cold, isn't all the beer you drink warm by comparison? I just had to ask.


I enjoy Stella and Dos Equis quite a bit.

Never tried Torpedo, but the pale ale is a wee bit over the skunk border for my palette, it would be good paired with grilled seafood though.

Good question but it actually gets very hot in the summer here.
We get all kinds of weather.
Sleet,snow,heat and more heat and more cold.
Fair question though.

I can drink warm beer...just not Guinness.

I like Stella as well but haven't tried the other beer you mentioned.

Stella!! In our one horse town we have a little bar with Stella on tap, it is certainly up there with my favs. I have been introduced to Michelob Amberbock recently. It's my bud light.

This is amazing and unreal!! Thanks for posting!
Mellow, jolly good fellow invented writing! We humans just want to get effed up! And all else follows.

i like generic french and german beer.

Beer, it's what's for dinner!

Just had a Bud with my dinner, it was nice and refreshing. I think i enjoyed it even more because i don't drink that often.

Anyone here drink the old Buckie?

Bud and other cheaper domestics have things in them that give me a headache. Sux.


For me, it is all about the Blue Moon, or Shock Top. I love the Belgian whites.

Anybody care for a Red Stripe? Another stand by. Cute bottles.
