Beer

Not that I don't enjoy a Budweiser from time to time. In fact, there was a time when that's all I would drink. I'm just trying to broaden my horizons so I can try different brews.
 
Hamms is back and I'm back with it. I grew up with it and the Hamms bear. I also am fond of Smithwicks which is my favorite Irish beer.
 
Many outstanding local breweries that produce some amazing high test beers. It is my obligation to stimulate the local economy as much as possible.
 
Well I am a confimed Bud Light drinker. But I love cooking with beer. Brats, pork roast, you name it.

Last summer while my son was at Boy Scout camp I found a brewery in Lexington, VA.

I have attached the website.
Devils Backbone Brewing Company

This beer is great!! Devils Backbone. I love too cook with it as well.
 
I prefer lagers to ale, though I do like Rogue Dead Guy ale. I usually buy Landshark, St. Pauli Girl, Kona Longboard, Rolling Rock, Henry Weinstein Reserve, Samuel Adams Cherry Wheat. When I only have time for one beer, I choose a Foster.

I did not like this beer at all. I would not wash bugs off my windshield with this stuff.

Trader Joe's wine is great stuff, we buy it by the case. But the beer...YUCH!!

Well, I don't have a single favorite, but if I had to pick just one (a sinful position to be put in), to drink at any time, it would be Duvel.

Warsteiner Dunkel might be second.

Tonight it's Anchor Steam to accompany a little Glenmorangie.

I don't drink as much beer as i used to, but every now & then...
Right now I have some Amstel Light in the fridge. I prefer the
paler, tangier beers. Dos Equis, Tecate, Carta Blanca for south
of the border beers. Sapporro, Tsing Tao for far east beers. Foster's,
Oh yeah! American: Rolling Rock, Hamms, Strohs, & this one beer
that I never saw anyplace but Nashville, Falls City Beer. Red Stripe
from Jamaica is also good. I've gotta stop, I'm getting thirsty!
 
30 yrs ago I drank Pabst Blue Ribbon mixed 50/50 with guinness stout. My brothers told me to "get some class" so I went to Molson then Sam Adams. Don't drink anymore and I think my brothers were wrong.
 
Paulaner Dunkel Hefeweizen.

A good regularly available beer in Samuel Adams Boston Ale.
 
Nordeast beer, out of Schells Brewery, New Ulm, MN. Toured the brewery soon after the introduction of the beer. They had one bottle in the brewhouse, it was empty.
 
There's a Porter by Great Lakes Brewery called Edmund Fitzgerald that's a great dark beer. Most any by Yuengling (oldest beer brewery in the US) is fine.
A light beer that doesn't taste light is Bud Light Platinum.
 
My taste runs towards Dos Equis (Oscura, not light), Shiner Bock, and when I'm in New Zealand, Speights. I wish I could find Speights in El Paso.
