Good Lord Sip; I've heard of a lot of beer & drank my share but never heard of this one. Are you sure Oscar what's his name exists??How many did you imbibe? Did you drive after wards? 40 characters exactly.

Had a bottle in a mountain town in CO last year. In the absence of a preferred beer, it'll work. IMHO, there's only two kinds of beer... good... and better!

Haven't tried that one. I'm kinda partial to some of the local micro's, we have a ton of them in the northwest. I'll try it if I see it though.

Sir, Mrs. Ron H. likes that one. Me, I'm more of a PBR guy.

Hope this helps, and Semper Fi.

Never tried that one Sip. But if you have a hankering for
trying a new one, try a "Fat Tire" sometime. Had my first
one in Livingston Montana back in 1992 while passing through
on vacation. Good Brewski.

I've never seen or heard of either of the above. Always on the
lookout for good beer, though. Will see if it's locally available.

With so many local micro brews popping up it's darn near impossible to keep up on them all. But I'm Trying...

 

[Marshwheeling]

I have not run across the Oskar Blues, but I am partial to the real Czech pilseners like Pilsner Urquell and Czechovar.

Sam Adams is okay, I guess, but it really fades in comparison to Summit Extra Pale Ale, from Saint Paul. This is my favorite beer. It pushes Fat Tire, Sierra Nevada and their ilk to the sidelines. I will take it anywhere, even into a room full of Colorado microbrew snobs, and win converts. The only beer I have tasted that I consider on the same level is Bell's Two-Hearted from Kalamazoo.

As always, YMMV.

Mendacino Brewery beers are outstanding. Eye of the Hawk select ale (8%) White Hawk IPA (7%) Red Tail Ale (6.5%) They are brewed in Saratoga Springs under license here in NY as well as in California at their original site. Saranac micros are also local and very good. They have a huge selection of standard and seasonal beers. I was disappointed this St. Patrick's day however. I bought Bass Ale, Guiness, and Harp Lager thinking I was getting what I used to get, imported beer. Low and behold I found the Bass is a "product of USA" and the Harp and Guiness are made in Canada (yeah I know that's an import but not from Ireland) My regular beer for all around drinking is Labatt Blue Canadian. The stuff I get in Canada is better than the US market import (I'm less than 2 hours from the border) but the US stuff will do. I have a bar on my deck and my buddies and I go through our fair share of beer. Thank God my wife drinks wine!

I'd like to try some of that. I discovered Two-Hearted in the UP and find it around here every once in a while. It's probably my favorite right now.

I picked up two cases of Yuengling Lager in Mobile yesterday. They don't sell it in Miss. and I've kind of taken a liking to it since I tried it on a trip to Pottsville, Pa. a few years ago.

Another vote for Fat Tire Beer from Ft. Collins Colorado.

I love beer, always trying a local brew.

When I took my last math class (LAST, I will never have to take any math again) I was notorious for sitting at the table going over notes and working while drinking a beer. It seemed that being able to relaz and take my time helped me "get it" It was always not being able to follow or get in class things done....but home at the table with a beer I was good. Dahubby asked me how was I going to take exams on a Baptist campus with a beer. Anyway, beer got me through to Magna Cum Laude. I attribute my success to my theory of "neural Darwinism" because the beer kills off the weak brain cells leaving only the strong, active ones to survive.

Sounds good, anyway.

I think I'll have a beer today. If I can find the one the OP mentions, that might be the lucky one.

 

[OK Hog Shooter]

Fat Tire is a good brew! Having to drive to Ft. Collins to get some is priceless... (l can get it locally, but it's not nearly as fun!)

I like them all...my favorite beer has always been well,...yellow.
