You trying to start a war my man?

>>8344262
I'm just a fan of Asian beers. I like Sapporo, Orion, and Chang (thai). Asahi is okay and I don't like Kirin Ichiban. I don't really like Korean beer, and never had chinese beer.

I'm also a fan of Pilsner Urquell. I have some slovak and czech friends and they say it's the best beer in the EU.

Hobgoblin

PBR

people talk shit but idgaf because I'm a cheapskate and if I drink cheap beer that means more money for whiskey

>>8344269
do you like heineken and stella too?

>>8344254
Newcastle. Busch comes in second. Yes, I have pleb tastes.

>>8344269
Chang is pretty good for a cheap beer too.

Zwettler Original would probably be my goto beer if I still lived in Austria.

>>8344269
weeb

>>8344322
Cheap swill that tastes like garbage and gives you a splitting headache the following morning

>>8344312
uk?

>>8344379
>implying this doesn't happen with any beer

in general I like stouts and porters, starting to really enjoy sours too

Cheap asian import beer rankings:

Kirin Ichiban
Asahi
Tsing-tao
Singha
Sapporo
Hite
That other one.

>>8344254
Saporro and the jap clones are made with specific brewing processes and ingredient combinations that attempt to remove as much beer flavor as possible while still maintaining a relatively high ABV. Nothing inherently wrong with it; on a hot day it's much better than a mass produced american pilsner after cutting the grass.

But a great beer? No. My concern is your denigration of Korean beers. The German brewers went to Korea after the war and setup breweries. OBI and the other beers are really German Pilsners.

Warsteiner is pretty fucking good.

>>8344254
favorite breweries currently:
alvarado st, alpha acid, sante adairius, cellarmaker

been really digging the NE IPA haze craze this summer/fall. as it gets colder, I'll probably switch to BBA strongs, firestone, bcbs, and speedway variants are my go-to's.

random question. I got some home brewed beer for someone and there is a bunch of shit at the bottom and kind of cloudy. I dont own a fine strainer but would putting a paper towel over a pretty small strainer work to remove a lot of that?

Also is it even safe to drink?

>>8344725
Not all beer is filtered, senpai.

>>8344725
just pour into a glass gently leaving the bottom little bit in the bottle, thats completely normal

>>8344725
it is safe to drink. the process of fermentation kills or prevents growth of pretty much anything that can harm you.

the stuff at the bottom is probably either protein, hops, or yeast, none of which will harm you. it just means that the beer was either bottled before it was finished fermenting or before a secondary fermentation (common for homebrew, as a way of creating carbonation), or poorly fined/filtered.

if I were you, I would put the bottle in the fridge, standing straight up, and let everything settle to the bottom. when the dregs have settled, pour the entire beer slowly into a glass, leaving the sediment in the bottle.

>>8344312
Hobgoblin is pretty tasty. We only have the "folköl" version of it here though. They used to sell the stronger stuff on Systembolaget

>>8344725
Actually, the yeast residue in the bottom has a high concentration of Vitamin E. When I pour my homebrew for clarity, I always swig the dregs directly from the bottle. My sex life has not suffered from it.

Get over the idiotic notion you can be poisoned from homebrewed beer, wine, cider, mead, or kvass. Distilling is another world, though. Don't be a puss.

>>8344625
>Korean beers
I just don't like the taste of them. I typically like Korean everything else (food, soju), I just don't like their beers

shiner bock

>>8344254
I'm a big fan of Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout.

>>8345503
Yes, best stout

>>8344254
For me, it's the McChicken

Guinness or Murphy's at the moment.
I like sours and raisins in the summer though

>>8344269
I also like the asian stuff. Got a taste for it from Vietnamese & Thai restaurants. It's really crisp and I find it's the best to drink on a hot day of which there are many here.
I haven't tried Orion but Sapporo and especially Chang is good. Funnily enough I just bought a case of Kirin Megumi today. Not even sure if I had regular Kirin before but this is pretty damn good. After the week I've had any old piss would taste good right now though.

Muh heady topper

>>8345561
*Saisons

Sweet, malty, and with enough hops to keep it interesting. Not my favourite for taste, but definately my favourite in terms of a feasable daily driver.

Muh IPA
Muh hops

St. Bernardus Christmas Ale, it only really shines on tap otherwise their Abt 12 is marginally better

>>8344254
OP's pic is Boomhower.

>>8344254
Tried a lot of beers, never had one as good as Stella.

>>8344269
The only good Japanese beer is Hitachino Nest

Yuengling

>>8344254
Itt: all these white bois pretending they know eastern stuff

Tee hee

>>8345570
no way.
camden wit is the best deer.

I could drink it all day.

>>8344538
Tripel Karmeliet and La Trappe Quadrupel are god-tier

>>8346392
Yeah I'm looking forward to them later this week.

>>8344538
>>8346392
seconded, Tripel Karmeliet is fucking GOAT

>>8344254
Bank's bitter, Wolverhampton UK

The draught in the pubs is better. Bitter as fuck.

Perfect middle-of-the-road beer.

Even my pickiest friends like it.

>>8344463

It doesn't. PBR is the beer equivalent to bottom-shelf tequila or vodka. Low-quality shit made just for the sake of getting shitfaced

Best I've ever had.

>>8346489
Exactly my sentiment. I'd drown myself in the stuff if I could afford enough.

had a vanilla coffee porter when i was in the us and it was probably the best beer ive ever had. couldn't find it in canada

>>8346489

>the amount of foam in that pour

but why

>>8344538
>Bitches Brew beer
I wonder how it tastes, but that's kinda great.

A local memepub (one of those single breweries that has no food and is only open from 4pm-10pm) I went to a couple months ago had a beer called "beeramisu"

it tasted like vanilla and coffee, and a little bit of cinnamon, just like a tiramisu dessert and it was was the best beer i've ever had.

I don't wanna start a fight, but seriously, how do you beer lovers do it? I know it's supposed to be an acquired taste, but I've been trying to drink beer for a year now and it still tastes like shit. Am I just going after the wrong beers?

I like Rieslings and other sweet wines though.

>>8346654
Belgian style beers tend to have a lot of foam, regardless of how carefully you pour them.

>>8344269

Try Hintachino Nest if you like Japanese Beers. The Espresso Stout is A++++

Signed, a fellow beer weeb.

Lager: Peroni

Real ale: kernel pale ale

>>8346742
Some people just dont develop a taste for beer. Taste is subjective. Just stick to wines. Nothing wrong with them, and you can get a lot more drunk for your money.

>>8346787
Sometimes even just opening the bottle makes it foam over. Fucking belgians.

Natty Daddy

>>8346892
True, but Belgians make my favorite beers, so i'm not too bothered.

>>8346453
>b...but muh taste and class and sophistication

fuck off
I hate people who pretend there is any other reason to drink alcohol than to get drunk

you can enjoy the taste yes but saying that's why you're drinking it is lying to yourself

>>8346933
You'll learn better when you get out of high school.

>>8344322
I like pbr as my water beer (day drinking outside in the summer type beer). I'm in boston so Trillium is like a mile away, so I'd say that's my favorite brand but honestly all their beers taste very similar. Like a well balanced but floral and bright tasting IPA.

Doombar where I am right now

>>8346935
say whatever you need to to justify your alcoholism ;)

Swordfish where I used to live.
>>8346953

>>8346956
You do realize that alcoholics don't really drink much beer, right? Alcoholics drink cheap, shitty vodka in plastic jugs. Or other similarly cheap liquors.

>>8344322
>expensive bourgeois champagne

Try some Milwaukee's best ice, it tastes like beer and it's under 50 cents a can.

>>8346392
Both are amazing.

>>8346962
poor alcoholics maybe

there are also alcoholics who drink bottles of wine and scoff it off as "oh honey I'm not drunk its just wine I drink it for the taste"

>>8346392
>>8346396
>>8346406

>entry level belgians
>god-tier/GOAT

well, at least you're trying

>>8346973
That is true, but the plastic jugs of vodka variety are the ones i'm familiar with.

>>8346962
>You do realize that alcoholics don't really drink much beer, right?

Depends on the alcoholic. I know a guy who drinks 24 beers a day. Been doing it for a few years now.

Pabst Blue Ribbon!

>>8347007
my nigga

>>8346953
hell yes my dude
where is it you live now? Im from the south west and that shit is c r i s p
you tried atlantic? Its another sharps

>>8346977
care to point out a higher tier Belgian?

Why is Guinness so hyped?

It's not bad but there's so many better beer.
Though that head is godly though.

my one true love

imo Warsteiner Dunkel

>>8344538
The only stout I can find is Guinness.

Why must life be so sober in Britainistan?

For me its 211 Steel Reserve, the best dying in the gutter beer.

>>8348286
I bought heroin from a homeless guy once, and he gave me 3 punch flavored steel reserves as change instead in money

>>8348324
Hell yeah bitch that's the coolest sentence I've ever read here

This.

>>8348335
My life's been full of drugs, regret, and foie gras.
9/10 would live it again

>>8345503
My favorite in that it is widely available and affordable.

My all time favorite though has to be founders breakfast stout. Have not tried KBS or founder Russian imperial stout.

>>8348369
If you ever get a KBS, you'll love it even more than the regular breakfast stout.

>>8348391
Yeah i heard it was great. I actually got my hands on goose islannd bourbon county stout 2015, and i didnt love it eventhough people rave about that beer.

>>8346448
Yuengling is way too sweet for me. However, it is a nice beer to have on the golf course or on the boat because I can drink a fuck ton of it and still be functional.

My favorite beer to date is Jai Alai IPA by Cigar City Brewing.

>>8344254
I recently been enjoying 'victory at sea' by ballast point. Its a vanilla coffee porter. Dark as hell, but thats how i like it.

Pretty expensive but its got a 10% alcohol content and doesnt taste like it, so worth it occasionally

>>8348431
>Ballast Point
I like most of their stuff, except Barmy and their juicy beers. The Dorado DIPA is decent, too.

>>8348439
Thats good to know! I've only tried the above and a stout in the same style, definitely looking to try more

>>8344254
Tequila

For me it is the Yuengling Black and Tan, the best Macro beer.

For me it's the (512) ipa, the best local beer.

Suntory Magnum

>>8347949
it's only good for snakebites

Pic related is my overall favorite.

Favorite IPA would be Bell's Two-Hearted.

Michigan has so many great microbreweries. One of the few perks of living in this shithole.

>>8346742
It took me a while to find a beer that I actually liked, but once I did, it was all uphill from there. From barely being able to stand the taste of 2 beers to being able to try any and every beer on the market. Hell, I'll even drink bud now. Still won't drink Coors, though. That shit's disgusting. My advice would just be to experiment and find one you really like.

Current favorite.

Only found in my country, I love it.

I love this shit.
As far as I know it's only sold in my country.

>>8346977
>something has to be obscure or hard to obtain to be GOAT

Boston Lager desu

>>8348018
shut up you absolute cretin I can regularly head to the bottle shop in my local town and pick up 10% stouts you shit head

>>8346973
>It's just to get the edge off when I get home from work.

My favourite local.

My "go to" beer.

Been drinking it for years. It has never not been delicious.

>>8350519
Maine USA is comfy.
I like Bean boots

Any

>>8350509
Me too, what do you think of their HPA?

Dortmunder has always been my mainstay

>>8350731
Very good. Nice and refreshing.
We sell them both plus a nice dark ale from kingstone down the road from hereford (llandogo trow) which i reccomend also.

>>8345806
>>8346833

Aww yeah, you lads know what's up.

>>8350754
Kingstone brewery i mean.

>>8344254
There can be only one

>>8350764
Yes
My penis is at full mast

>>8350764
Along with a bar of really dark chocolate. Pure heaven

>>8344254

>>8350764
I used to think guinness in the can tasted watered down and thin so I started drinking murphys and now that tastes watered down.

I'm drinking a can of guinness right now and it tastes better than it used to. It's hit and miss.

>>8350800
Murphy's is nice.

>>8350764
Slightly bitter fucking water.

Idk about favorite but pic related was pretty good

I don't know that one. I will try find to find it.

Doomoo arikatuu

>>8347949
They were first and basically the only available stout for a very long time. They still have a huge market share and tend to be the one stout beginners first try.

>>8344254
Darmstadter Pils.

>>8344254
pic related

although not the actual chouffe but rather a locally brewed licensed version of it that tastes just as good

>>8350872
>triggered by horrible nipp, romaji spelling
please, please dont do this to me

>>8350886
>locally brewed licensed version

Where is that?

It's actually as good as it sounds.

>>8350987
I hate rogue, but this and dead guy ale are solid

I love this shit.

>>8350987
>>8351022
Every time someone says Rogue is shit I have to be that guy who brings these up. Yeah they make a lot of garbage, but these are solid.

>>8346977

>entry level
>beer

Jesus fucking christ kill yourself please

mary jane session IPA.
Its not the best beer by far but at a very supp-able 3.something ABV% and the fact that nearly every pub near me keeps a cask on tap means it is by far my favourite beer.

either pic related

>>8351428

or pic related

>>8345760
I remember when they had the promotion where you could put in a code from a 24-pack and get a free glass, but you could actually put in any combination of alphanumeric characters and get as many free glasses as you wanted.

>>8344254

well said lad.
Stout was invented in England, if he can't find a pint of it anywhere he must be walking around with his eyes closed.

not sure you can get it outside of quebec though

>>8352987
What regulations? Doesn't stop places like Chipotle from having beer on the menu.

I HAVE BEEN ENJOYING YUENGLING BLACK AND TAN RECENTLY. A HIGHLY SESSION-ABLE BEER WITH CONSIDERABLE FLAVOR.

>>8354249
Actually, it was the communists in poland who forced the regulation of how named traditional sausages could be made. They wouldn't permit some bullshit imitation to go on the market as the real thing. It helped preserve an important cultural and historical food product.
