Fucking BEER, that's what.
Plain and simple. Do you drink beer? What kind? End of story. I don´t want to hear about your fucking wine stories, so cut it out.
In the States I had a serious addiction to good ol´Mickee´s. Probably because it´s the first beer I got wasted on eleven years ago and I´m a loyal guy. I´d mess with Corona and MGD from time to time. Milwaukee´s Best tasted like that state had some fucking problems if that was their best shot. Fuckfaces. Here in Guatemala a beer called Gallo (Rooster) practically has a fucking monopoly on the beer market. I can accept it, though. Since in the Chinese Zodiac I´m a rooster. |
Um, does Cider count, cause it's summer time really hot summer time, and a little Woodchick Hard Cider, out on the porch. Good stuff.
|
I'm a wimp when it comes to beer. Most I don't like, but I will drink a Corona, Coors Light or Michelob Light.
Personally, I think regular old Budweiser is the worst tasting beer ever. |
I drink Warsteiner almost exclusively.
http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b4...rsteiner-1.jpg You can pretty much count on the Germans to do it right! If that's not available - and it's pretty hard to find where I live - I will SETTLE for Newcastle. |
I drink: Fat Tire Amber Ale, Killian's Irish Red, Blue Moon with an orange, Coronas, and Miller Lite if I have to. I really like trying new beers though. I love it when I find a place that has their own microbrew. There's 2 places back home that are great microbrews and they're usually only 2 bucks a pint.
One of my favorite summer drinks is a Loaded Corona. Take a corona and pour about half a shot of Bicardi Limon in the top before you squeeze your lime in. A sixer of that is sure to knock you in the floor. |
Oh snap, why didn't I think of this thread.
Beer is just about the only alcohol I drink regularly and I love the hell out of it. I have a special liking for dark beer, such as stouts and porters. This includes Guinness - which might be my favorite alcoholic drink period - Becks Dark, Warsteiner Dunkel, and Newcastle. Every so often, depending on how tight my budget is, I'll go for some cheap beer - PBR, Carling Black Label, MGD, High Life and the like. Columbus has an awesome micro-brewery, aptly named Columbus Brewing Co., which has an excellent lineup of beer. Recently I've discovered them and another brewery of awesomeness, Flying Dog. Their standout beer, in my opinion, though I've only had a few different kinds of theirs, is the Road Dog Scottish Porter. Fortunately, the carry-out around the corner from my house has a huge assortment of domestic and imported beers from all over - 250 different kinds in all, or so they boast. |

Sure I didn't like it when I first tried it, but hell, I didn't like beer that much when I first tried it. It's one of the cheapest, and now I love it, anyone that hates is a fool! Pretty much only drink PBR, Becks, St. Paulie Girl, and a local beer by the name of Red Hook. Bud and Bud light have got to be the grossest beers out there. Or maybe it's just the fact that it reminds me of highschool, but I can't/wont drink it anymore. But I have to agree with OO, sometimes a 40 (or 2) of Mickee´s is just what i'm in the mood for, and boy does it work! Dark beer can all go to hell, i've tried it many many times, and it just never seems to sit well with me. I'm in London currently, and they seem to be into warm (or at least room temp.) pints, and maybe it's just because I'm American, but I find this SICK! But they also don't know what ice water is. So I guess I can't really excpect much when it comes to cold beverages here. |
Your high school sucked, keener. Here at Allderdice we regularly get kegs of PBR. Then we party. :)

I can't believe Pabst Blue Ribbon was even mentioned here. What next? Budweiser?
Anyway... I drink a wide assortment of beers just so that I don’t burn myself out on the same shit every day. I mean, there was a time when I drank a different six pack every day and I did it for almost three years. Over the past few years I have come to know some truly great brews. First and foremost is the first beer I ever had and still my favorite: Negra Modelo. This dark ale is strong on taste and alcohol content and is quite possibly the best thing to have with seafood (shrimp, lobster, “Siete Mares” or even clam chowder.) Karl Strauss Red Trolley comes in at a VERY CLOSE SECOND as my favorite beer of all time. I only had this about a year ago when we went to the Karl Strauss Brewery in San Diego, CA and had this in its freshest form: from the tap and only days old. Rich, full-bodied ale with a hearty flavor. If you've never had one, do yourself a favor and move to San Diego so you can have a steady supply of Karl Strauss brews year-round. Gordon Biersch Marzen is a brew that I was introduced to by a friend who owns a mediterranean restaurant. Full and heavy wheat taste. I guy maybe a 12 pack of this every 2 weeks just because I like it so much. Newcastle Brown Ale has been one of my favorite beers for the past few years. I first tried it when I was bar hopping and I asked the bartender to recommend anything other than what my companions were having. The first thing he said was, "You can't go wrong with Newcastle". The man was a shaman. :D Widmer Brothers Hefeweizen is another wheat beer that I enjoy drinking on occassion it’s more common than the GB brew above, but it’s still good nonetheless. Fat Tire Amber Ale the best beer to go with a burger and sweet-onion rings. Enough said. Guinness Extra Stout is one of my favorite stouts that is widely recognizable. Every sensible beer drinker loves a good stout and it’s even better if it’s a Guinness. Stone Arrogant Bastard Pale Ale is a very strong, very bitter and very hoppy brew made mostly to knock you the fuck out. Of all the beers listed here, this is the one that has given me the worst hangover; not because it was a shitty beer, but because I thought I could off nine 22 oz. bottles in one night. Like their advertisements say “Fizzy yellow beer is for wussies” and if you fall under that category this beer is NOT for you. :p Rogue Hazelnut Brown Nectar is an almost sweet malty beer with a smooth hazelnut aroma. I’ve only had it once in my life but 3 friends and myself managed to dust a keg of this beer in 2 days on or around February. I honestly don’t remember. E.J. Phair Indian Pale Ale is another pale ale that's tough on a night of drinking if you're not properly prepared. Full wheat flavor, high alcohol content and a smooth finish. Pacifico Clara is another of the few Mexican beers that I enjoy because of its complete polar opposite to what Corona is. Corona is a slightly bitter but overall flat-flavored beer whereas Pacifico is a perfectly flavored lager that's not too bitter and not too fizzy. And last, but most definitely not least... Brewbakers Sequoia Red is a medium-bodied wheat brew that's made in a local microbrewery called Brewbakers. This is probably one of my favorite beers of all time. There's only one catch. It's only seasonal. :( |
Anything, I'm not fussy. The only thing I ever really considered making a habit of was Carlsberg (my brother will slay me for putting that). I want to try Hobgoblin actually, I've heard plenty of good things about it.

Julia mentioned budweiser in the 3rd post, as did I. As I said, if you hate, youre a fool! |
OH OK...
|
Hey, I didn't shit on Guinness, Pacifico, or Fat Tire, all beers that I think taste like crap. Why did you have to make fun of the one I like?
|
In my younger days, I'd throw parties and get pony kegs of Old Milwaukee. Gah. But hey, no one cared when it was free. :D

I'm not a big fan of beer, but I can tolerate Guinness and Corona. Every once in a while though I'll have a Yuengling. (sp?)

Silly mexican, you're suppose to put lemon in Hefewizen!
|
You're supposed to put lemon in Corona too.
...hides the bitter taste. :p |
I always thought it was lemon in Hefeweizen and lime in Corona. And nothing in PBR. Just big, cold kegs of it.

You know what will make you like PBR? Switch to shotgunning beer like it did. I still drink/sip beer, but only about as many as I used to shotgun (maybe one, or two max in a night of drinking, depending on how drunk you want to get). God does an ice cold PBR go down smooth and quick when your shotgunning it. Not only that but you don't even feel bad if you don't finish all the foam because its ONLY PBR and you bought the 24 pack for like 12 dollars. You get drunk, it's quick, and it tastes awesome! |

OH GOD HOW I HATE KEYSTONE LIGHT. |

I am a Guiness man myself. Cans, bottle, or draft I like it all. Very good tasting stuff. |
Do any of you put salt in your draft beer? I have a friend who does and he also puts a lemon in the same beer. By the end of the night he'll have about 6 slices of lemon in his beer.
And I don't like lime in my Corona. When they put the lime on the rim it leaves that taste and I can't stand that. |
My friend Oscar puts lemon AND salt on his Tecate, although I personally don't really care for it too much anymore.
It should also be noted that Tecate is a pretty shitty draft beer. Furthermore, Tecate is a town in Mexico whose main export is tequila. And just to be anal: Tecate has a distinction for being a town full of drunks and hence most Mexicans refer to hopeless drunks as "tecatos", after the town of the same name where some of the shittiest tequila in Mexico is produced. |
Beer isn't my favourite alcohol, lager is truly terrible, and I don't drink it unless I'm pretty drunk already, Ales are alright, however I like Stout and Guinness is the God, and I can drink that straight away.
Cider is also a nice refreshing drink for an afternoon and stout is more an evening drink...at least that's what I think... |
I work at a beer company that carries Coors, Miller, and an ok selection of imports and FMB's, and the only one thats ever got my attention is Blue Moon.
I dont like to get drunk, and I really dont like to drink that often, so when I want a beer I always get Blue Moon. Its proably the best tasting beer to just sip and enjoy. Its got a citrus flavor to it. |
I like beer.
Although I haven't tried much anything else besides the usual ones in Finland. Lapin Kulta, Koff, Olvi... My definate favorite is Karhu: http://www.karhu.fi/pics/pak_iii_Pieni.jpg |

YUCK. I bought some Blue Moon once recently out of curiosity and ended up drinking one and throwing the rest away. To me, it tasted like baby powder smells. Gag.
|
And yet you like Warsteiner. My GOD, woman you're more confused than a homosexual priest. :p
|
I'm not a big fan of beer so I don't drink it that often, although of the beer that I have had I much prefer drinks like Keiths and Canadian.
|
I'm not a snob about beer. I can drink with the alchies who prefer Mickeys and Old Milwaukee for the price, or I can spend a few dollars more to enjoy a Fat Tire or Stella Artois. I don't mind something lighter like Corona, or something exotic like Ace. On the other hand...
Beers I don't like- Blue Moon - It's expensive, and it's... Just not me. I dunno. Maybe it was the fact I was in Highland Park, and I was drinking it at $10 a pint (huge inflation on drinks in Highland Park). 2001 (beer from Denmark, celebrating the new year) - It was known for it's 20 proof. It tasted good at first, but the aftertaste was so godawful I wanted to mask it with a clove of garlic. Skyy Blue and Zima - I'm not homophobic, but I don't know how the gay community can enjoy the stuff. Old English - It is the one and only beer that actually knocks me unconcious, and leaves me with a massive headache that makes box wine look like aspirin. I couldn't even finish all 40ozs, and I definitely hate wasting beer. Big Bear, King Cobra - Although I can drink cheap, I can't bring myself to buy a 40oz for a dollar. I don't care if it is the cheapest beer, I'm just not cheap enough to want beer that bad. |

Anything Canadian really - I really like Canadian and Creemore. |
I really only drink Australian beers. I've found a variety of foreign beers that I enjoy, but they are generally more expensive and don't actually find taste better than local beers.
Also I must note, I haven't found an American beer that I say I will buy again. |

How about Samuel Adams beer?
http://www.samueladams.com/ It's one of the "high class" beers, so you won't see it much at parties. |

I'm a little surprised nobody mentioned any microbrews yet. I think most microbrews are overrated, but I did enjoy a pint of 312 (named after one of Chicago's area codes) once or twice. |
Microbrews were mentioned a few times, pay attention.
I'm all for a quality beer now and again, but I don't go out of my way for it. I learn to enjoy the cheap Canadian beer stuffs, just because I typically only drink it to get drunk, or drink so little of it that it doesnt' bother me. So, I enjoy beer, but I don't go out of my way to get good stuff, because it's just not worth the hassle of finding a place with good beer that is readily accessible. |
Hmm not really a beer expert, or know what is good and whats not. All I know is that I like Bud and Bud Lite, Miller is also pretty good too. Besides that I've only drank shitty Busch, Genesee (fuckin Genny water), Steels and Keystone. I dont care much for any of those ones.

I grew up in Wilmington, DE. It's on the east coast of the US. Now, I haven't been drinking for all that long, but I like to think I know more about it than most my age. That said, so far as beer, I favor a regional drink. Yuengling, America's Oldest Brewery, has a Lager that any student can appreciate. It's not the best, but it's damn good. And it doesn't cost all that much.
Plus it's domestic, which is always a plus in my book. Oh, and Pabst ftw. |
This man knows what he's talking about. Yuengling is a Pittsburgh favorite. :)
