Let's use this thread as an OT discussion thread for beer drinkers...
For Instance as many of you already know my favorite beer is: Squatters - Hops Rising (see photo)
What is everyone else's favorite beer? type of beer? all things BEER!
Also, I will be going to Beertopia here shortly... give me some ideas on what to try and I will post my response/review of it after the game...

I'm just not an IPA fan, big fan of a good Grolsch though.

Grolsch is good. I also like Stella Artois, and Peroni's...

I haven't had a chance to drink much while traveling but good ones I've tried around here: hopluia, ranger, and the stout at sun mountain brewery in Colorado are all pretty good

Ranger has a very good IPA for the price... if you want to pay like 6.99 for a very good IPA that'd be it...

Stella and Grolsch are always my first two picks, next would be Zywiec.

Hmm... never tried Zywiec... is it also a green bottle "bitter" beer? may have to look into that today at Beertopia.

Hello, My name is Matt, and I have a problem.
I LOVE IPA beer. Been hooked for 3 years now and love trying new beers on any chance I can. My taste is for stronger flavored beers. High hop content, High IBU rating generally. The more taste the better i say.
Some more readily available beers that i enjoy include Goose Island IPA, Hieneken, Ranger by New Belgium, Octoberfest (Sam Adams), Stella and Peroni
Some beers that may be more difficult to find: Hoptimum by Sierra Nevada, Double Jack by Firestone Walker, and many random Belgium doubles I've been trying at the new bar near me called "Word of Beer'
Please anyone post suggestions of things you have liked, things you would avoid, and maybe even a story or two. If a friend give a you a bottle of beer you haven't seen, taking a picture, tell us what you think.
Thanks

Grolsch was my go to beer for awhile. Hard to find it in Nebraska sometimes, even if you do I always check the expiration date. I bought a bottle once that was 6 months expired. I like a hoppy IPA and my beer of choice lately has been Goose Island's IPA. Honkers Ale by Goose Island is a classic too.

MacAllan Imperial Stout - 10% alcohol content - not cloyingly sweet aftertaste, surprising mellowness with chocolate, scotch, dark red wine, caramel, vanilla, sherry hints of flavor. Two pints of this will set you free
I like oatmeal stouts also, but not a fan of IPA's, and only some ales. On a regular basis, I prefer dark lagers, as they tend to be more refreshing. I always liked San Miguel Dark, if I could get it from Manila and not remade elsewhere.

Well, if it's bad news, drink a Cricket's Nocturne Dark Lager or a Leinenkugel Creamy Dark Lager.

The Bad news... Firestone Walker is not allowed in Nebraska... anywhere... and Beertopia does not have that MacAllan Stout... but the good news is I got Zywiec Porter, My favorite in Squatters, and a new one that i've never had before...
