This is my go-to

>>6617114
I'll also pick this up on occasion.

>>6617118
Unfortunately, I can't get Bell's in Mississippi

>>6617032
Same OP, that's been my goto as of late.

>>6617122
I've been picking this up for $1.99 at a local gas station

>>6617127
This is a good session beer

>>6617130
My final suggestion. Homebrew (unless it was contaminated) is always best beer.

>>6617032
stouts (none of that chocolate or fruity shit though), or failing that dark ale.

>>6617118
yes that

>>6617154
sauce

They have this at my local Smiths now. I wanna give it a try

>>6617158
Photoshop

>>6617166
NO, it's real!!!!!

>>6617169
Nah, you can tell by all the layers

>>6617163
That's a good choice. I really like their Taddy Porter, and the Stingo is an interesting brew.

>>6617170
If you don't tell me, I'm just going to have to use the original picture.

>>6617181
exxxtrasmall.com but I saw the video all the photoshop in that picture

One of my current obsessions

>>6617032
How is this compared to normal Guinness? I think normal Guinness is pretty poor, but lots of their rarer stuff is fantastic.

>>6617163
It's so, so fucking nice. While most chocolate stouts taste like dark chocolate (which I love), this one is really unique in that it tastes like milk chocolate with lots of creaminess. It really is a true representation of that 'dessert in a glass' cliche. Enjoy!

>>6617163
Oh, that looks good. I'll have to try it.

>>6617032
It's a good one. Stout is always a good choice.

>>6618588
Not him, but searching for the torrent atm. You know the name?

>>6618558

It's not a nitro stout so it's way different. Foreign Extra Stout is better if you can find it. Extra Stout is decent but there are better porters/stouts you can buy for the price. pic related shit is delicious

Picked up some more of this today. Not my #1 but gotta switch things up

>>6617114
My personal favorite. Every time I open one I am astounded at how chocolaty dark it is

Whenever I can't decide on anything I want, I'll just fall back onto a case of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale or Torpedo. I like how consistent it is, though getting old packs is kinda sucky from time to time.

>>6617122
This or pic related for me alays hit the spot. I miss the old summit label

HURR a beer must be expensive and unknown to most people to be good xDDD

pls stop

>>6620776
Most beers posted have been pretty inexpensive

>>6619553
>being able to buy this
>not being flyover

Pick one (1).

When its around, its in my fridge

>>6620798
>Implying that you can't find Great Lakes in NYC if you are not retarded

Also these are a damn good go to for that sour funk when you don't want to drop 15-20 on a bottle

>>6620798
>living in a shitty, dirty, overpopulated cesspool and not having access to some of the best beer in america
I'll stay in my flyover land happily.

>>6617158

>>6617032
Whenever I have a shit day at work I'll pick one of these up to go with a little steak or baked potato.

Having Nogne O's Porter atm. It's pretty fantastic.

Just discovered Cloudwater Brewery's stuff too and that is great as well. I realise this may not be relevant to a lot of you as these beers may not be widely available in the US but I see a few US beers here so if you see anything from the above two or the Kernel Brewery I'd recommend you try it if you can.

Tried this recently since my friend really likes imperial stouts. It was good, but a bit oversweet for me. He also had a chocolate stout that I can't recall the name of but I enjoyed.

>>6619553
only good part of living in Cleveland is the beer

>>6620268
torpedo is my go to. just got back from picking some up actually.

>>6621538
Nice choice, anon. I've enjoyed everything I've tried from them.

Way too expensive but so good if you're into slightly sweet and malty, subtle citrus and clove flavors

>>6620752
yeah, it's a rock solid pale. so nicely balanced.

>>6617032
Can i get a hold of that kind at the local liquor store? I turn 21 soon in a few weeks and would love for it to be my first beer.

>>6621914
Are you a Québecfag ?

>>6622439
drink a fuckin budlight

>>6622439
There's nothing special about it. If you want Guinness, you **have** to get it on draught.

Go to a bar.

Say "Do you have Guinness draught" (pronounced drowt)

>of course we do may I see your ID

OK

get a guinness, tip the bartender.

Pretty much always they'll let the beer sit a few minutes before they bring it to you, if they don't, you best let it sit till the bubbles all clear (except for the creamy foam on top)


When you get Guinness draught, they use NO2 instead of CO2 to make it bubbly. They can't do that when they bottle it. It makes a huuuuge difference and is one of the reasons Guinness is among the most popular beers in the world,

and probably the only popular beer in America that is any good

>>6624035
>Guinness
>good
when will this maymay die?

>bready
>sweet
>grassy
>slightly tart/lemony in the ending notes

Holy shit I love Kölschen so much

>>6624029
Why

It's not a "Summer beer", but then again I'm not really a "Summer guy"

>>6624050
So you appreciate GOOD beer even more.

>>6624040
Fuck yeah, me too! Haven't had the one in your post but recently tried this one from a local brewer. I've tried a lot of American imitations of the style and not many of them have been anywhere near as good as this.

>>6624173
>has 0 reviews on BeerAdvocate
>not even a fucking photograph
Although it sounds lovely, I'm not sure I'll be able to find it in northern NJ.

>>6621914
they have a giant 1.6 gallon bottle of this at my local beer store for $250 haha

>>6624035
People seriously pronounce it drowt? Not draft?

Boulevard's ginger lemon Radler is a god tier summer brew. Lemon cuts the ginger well and the ginger doesn't overpower the drink.

>>6625763
No, they dont. It's pronounced draft. Even in Ireland.

He just enjoys making a retard out of himself.

Guiness: Looks like dirt water tastes like ass water

If anyone's familiar with Foothills Brewing Company in North Carolina, I got my dad a bomber of People's Porter for Father's Day. Did I do good?

>>6625882
Yeah I didn't read any further so now I get it. He was pretending to be retarded.

>>6620225
>>6621518
>>6617114
>drinking Old Rasputin while pic related is clearly superior

>>6626683
Is it available year round in most liquor stores?

>>6626692
my nigga just buy a case. this shit only gets better for years

>>6626683
I can't really comment on this given that I've never had it and it isn't available where I live. Regardless, I'll just call bullshit on you and your fedora-wearing beer proclivities.

This tasty drop.
Also Adnams Broadside

>enjoying the taste of beer

jesus how pretentious can you be? it tastes like rotten grain water spiked with hops

drink it and get drunk

yall fags wouldn't drink this shit if it wasn't alcoholic

>>6628204
also this is what I drink

>>6617032
I love cooking with Guinness.

>>6627162
Stop saying nigga. You come across as a fucking retard. That being said, I'll pick up a pack if I see it in my area!

>>6617032
White Rabbit Porter is the bidness

>>6617032
Their West Indies Porter is a pretty solid brew. So is the Dublin Porter. Not amazing, but pretty good.

I'd really enjoy drinking my way through Britain, trying the local stuff everywhere. I think the mild is a great institution, not because you find the most interesting flavours among milds, but for reasons that go beyond taste alone.

Taste-wise, that's too difficult of a question. >>6617118 Amazing and never lets you down.
Other well-known beers I really enjoy are Orval, Delirium Tremens, Schlenkerla Rauchbier Urbock, Weihenstephaner Dunkel, Fuller's IPA (on tap). Beer Hunters Mufloni CCCC IPA and Koff Portteri are excellent beers from my country. The best American beers I've had are Stone IPA and Founders Oatmeal Stout.

>>6629222
Cont.
Schneider Weisse Tap 6 Unser Aventinus is one of my most recent favourites. The only bad thing about it is that it gets me drunk too quickly.

Thank you, based hollandse Aldi.

>>6620776
Hefeweizen master race

>>6620806
If you live close enough to one of the restaurants it's better from the tap, anon.

>>6629851
Great beer. I only crave that banana and clove estery goodness once in a while, but it never fails to satisfy.

>>6629851
I like paulaners hefeweiss, but will try this one out. It's sold damn near everywhere.

>>6629909
Also might wanna try this one

>>6629941
mein neger

>>6624136
One of my favorites.

>>6629941
One of my favorites, actually. I've used it multiple times to convert people to better beer.

>>6628204
Would legit drink non alcoholic beer if it still tasted the same

>>6629998
Same. I don't want the alcohol affecting my gains, but I love beer too much to give it up. I've been buying Oskar blues Pinner. It's good as fuck and less than 5% abv

>>6621294
>juniper berries

just admit it, the only reason why is skyrim

>>6630018
Yeah. People didn't use juniper berries until skyrim. Gin wasn't popular til skyrim. Skyrim.

>>6630028
I agree. Glad you didn't post some pussy ass passive aggressive reply, because that would mean its true.

>>6630044
Kill yourself

>>6617114
Haven't had this in way too long. For a while I was pretty certain I liked Narwhal more than Old Rasputin. I need to do a blind taste test and then stick with the winner. BA Rasputin is incredible though. One of my fav barrel aged stouts.
>>6617118
solid german beer that got me to respect german beer
>>6617122
Bell's just started distributing to CA, but their attempt to dick over a smaller craft brewery has made me unlikely to ever buy their beers. Hopslam is stupid overrated. Us west coasters have easy access to much better IPAs at all times.
>>6618092
Probably my favorite "amber" ale. The hop profile + the malts they use just works so fucking well. Their coffee is awesome as well.
>>6626683
This is the only canadian brewery I know of other than Unibroue. These guys had a sour of some kind that was insanely good. My non-beer drinking friend loved it too because it had so much raspberry flavor coming through.

Sierra Nevada Hoptimum during it's initial bomber was the best Ipa I ever had. Once they changed the recipe and made it into 4 pks, it hasn't been the same.

Troegenator is my go-to dark beer. Nice taste and has a decent kick. Goes lovely with a good home made burger or steak at a cookout.

I think it's a PA only or primarily PA based company, it is a good Dutch dark beer.
