Tasty Brews
 
Post your favorite drinks, alcoholic or not.

Me and Raub were drinking down Sam Adams White Ales last weekend, they were absolutely tasty. And they got Rauble trashed.


Marshall 04-07-2006 12:24 AM

I like blue moon alot. I dont really know why, I just like it.

thecreeper 04-07-2006 01:54 AM

blue moon isn't too bad. hefeweisen and hoegaarden are both delicious as well. though the slight edge goes to hoegaarden and their white ale.

Liss 04-07-2006 03:28 AM

blue moon is great with an orange slice!

I'm a wine lover. And a michelob ultra girl. And I like anything with good tequila.

Though I just took a few shots of gentlemens jack a little while ago, and have been sipping on captain and sparkling cider, which is surprisingly pleasant. I like alceehol.

raublekick 04-07-2006 08:16 AM

Hoegaarden > Blue Moon > Sam Adams White Ale
But they are all delicious. I wish I could get Belgian brews at every bar. Tonight I'm going out to dinner with my parents, and I will drink much Blue Moon.

Yuengling Lager is my favorite standard beer to get at bars. Yuengling Premium is amazing, but I never see it in bars.

johnny 04-07-2006 08:22 AM

sapporo has been my favourite beer for a while now. too bad it isn't cheap..

molson export and rickard's red are my usuals. and every now and then i'll get some northern ale when it's available to me--gotta support the hometown brewery. tuborg and stella artois get honourable mentions.

now i will start another list! beers that i do not particularly like [even though taste doesn't make a bit of difference after you've had a few]: heineken, grolsch, dab, molson canadian. thumbs down!

teensupernothing 04-07-2006 08:44 AM

haha wow, if you kids have any questions about beer, ask me, my dad is a brewer.

sam adams white is so good because it's so different. it's an unfiltered beer, which is uncommon except for some microbrews.

has anybody had tilt yet? it's an alchoholic energy drink made by Anheuser bush.... and personally i think it's terrible, i don't know if you can actually buy it yet or if my dad just got it from work. it's just entirely too sweet for me, but my dad, my brother, and my bro's fraternity all like it.

me? i'm an iced-tea drinker. good old unsweetened iced tea. but if i have to say an alcholic beverage... most dark beers, and white wine go over just fine with me.

raublekick 04-07-2006 10:36 AM

DO NOT MENTION TILT IN THIS HOUSE. ONLY SPARKS. DRINK SPARKS.

I forgot to mention Lionshead. It's not really the best beer or anything, but it's $10 for a case of bottles, and it tastes so, so, so much better than anything at that price, and it's better than the Miller/Bud/Coors/Etc... stuff.

My favorite unfiltered beer comes from Germany, at the local Bad Windsheim brewery. It's delicious: Windsheimer Reichsstadbier naturtrüb.


I haven't developed a taste in American beers because I just turned 21, and have only been getting cocktails or cider at bars so far.

Wtf, I have never ever seen yuengling anywhere near atlanta. The only time I get to drink any is when I go see my friends in NC. :(

If any of you are ever in the atlanta area (or chattanooga), you gotta look up a Taco Mac. Its a bar/restraunt that has at least 50 different types on draft (or however its spelled) and hundreds of different bottled types. Im not 21 yet, but im 23 in alberta canada and I love Taco Mac. :)

Edit: and the taco mac near my house does NOT have yeungling. Bastards. I also just checked with my taco mac and we have exactly 100 types of beer on tap. :cool:

Well, I live not too far from where it's made, so I should hope that I can find it. Around here if you ask for a lager, you get a Yuengling Lager, because most people around here don't think there is any other lager, or at least don't consider them important.

Marshall 04-07-2006 12:01 PM

I wish it was like that here. I really like yeungling. :(

We have it on tap at Lulus in Gulf Shores. Blue Moon too. I'm a trained bartender there, now, remember. Um, when I live there.

Mr Biglesworth 04-07-2006 01:45 PM

god this thread is making me thirsty...

Liss 04-07-2006 01:46 PM

for real, i don't know why talk of lager sparked it, but I want a damn corona.

testtubebaby 04-07-2006 09:25 PM

i don't drink beer... piss water

Liss 04-07-2006 09:29 PM

pansy.

speaking of yeungling, do you play 1.5 at all?

teensupernothing 04-08-2006 09:58 AM

yeah, i never said i liked tilt.... never said i liked sparks either, but i've never had sparks. if it dosen't taste like carbonated shit, i'd like it better than tilt.

he works at anheuser bush in newark, and no, we keep the free beer for ourselves.

and AB makes yeungling... if you didn't know that. bottles it anyway

GT2000 04-08-2006 04:06 PM

Beer.

Ok ok, i'll expand...budweiser still...i always go back to it. Yuengling is good too, usually when my friend and i go to the cinema cafe we get a few pitchers of icehouse/yeungling.

I was drinkin on bacardi-o and coke lastnight, that was good. Don't drink a lot of liquors though, i don't drink a whole lot anymore period actually..

Mr Biglesworth 04-08-2006 04:42 PM

I haven't been to the liquor store all year, but i just swung by and picked up some vodka in anticipation of summer.... but getting drunk might make it come faster.

Liss 04-08-2006 05:00 PM

My name is Melissa, and I am an alcoholic.

Mr Biglesworth 04-08-2006 05:05 PM

you wanna make out?

johnny 04-08-2006 06:29 PM

liss are you drunk!?

i don't drink liqour so much. pretty much the only mixed drink i'll have occassionally is a [white] rum & coke. i like to drink a rum when i'm at my camp in the summertime, out in my boat trying to catch fish on a nice sunny day. and a ceasar is a good drink too, but i could never bother to make one for myself. vodka + clamato + whatever other shit they splash in: works out to be pretty good usually.

and when it's serious party time i'd never turn down a shot of tequilla or jager. a tequilla shot is good every now and then.

GT2000 04-08-2006 06:53 PM

That's right, can't forget about the J

Liss 04-08-2006 06:56 PM

no, i'm not drunk right now. I was just reflecting about all the alcoholic beverages that I love so much, margaritas and bloody marys, mojitos, sangria, shiraz, chardonnay, mich ultra, corona, blue moon, champagne, bushwhackers, madras, bay breezes, rum punches...It's hard to pick favorites! I hung out with two girls last night who don't drink, who HATE all alcohol, and I just kept thinking..."but it's so damn good." And then I started wondering if they were more normal than me or not.

Jello shots, irish coffee, strip and go nakeds, black russians, dirty martinis, shots of sauza or 1800 with salt and lime.............at least i hate white zin and jager, so I'm not a complete drunk...?

I'm bored.

Liss 04-08-2006 06:58 PM

And yes, making out sounds fun.

thecreeper 04-11-2006 02:33 PM

i tried blue moon again this weekend...eh, i can't say i really would get it again.

miller lite was going down rather smooth though. and some old dude on acoustic guitar was playing half the songs from sgt pepper's and other hits from the 60's and 70's. good times.

i just don't understand how you can enjoy sam adams white ale and not blue moon... they're like... the same thing!

thecreeper 04-11-2006 04:33 PM

i dunno man, its ok, it just doesnt have the same kick to it.

sam adams just has a better taste, though Hoegaarden I still think is better.

Liss 04-11-2006 04:35 PM

I'm telling you, squeeze an orange wedge into the blue moon and it's SO GOOD.

thecreeper 04-11-2006 05:04 PM

it came with one. i dunno, i wasn't convinced.

it wasn't bad by any means, but i just wasn't feeling it.

johnny 04-11-2006 05:36 PM

i dunno about beers that need something added to them (like corona with a lime) in order to actually taste good..

squirrels2nuts 04-11-2006 05:51 PM

whiskey rocks for the win. chase with a beer.
top 3 beers: Bud>MGD>50
Budweiser is only good Canadian brewed though. Ive been to NY and your 30 packs dont have nearly the kick as our 24's. god help you american lite beer drinkers, must water the shit down even more. too ashamed to even put the alcohol percent on it. i ended up drinkin labatt XXX, 7.0% i think. i told the 'merikans it was normal Canadian beer. hell, they were even dumb enough to think i was my older brother. or nice enough not to care...
as for cheap beers, labatt genuine (draft) honey is good. lucky is sucky. i usually end up getting this au gratis cause nobody else wants it, or by stealing it when stupid drunks arent looking.
Labatt extra dry, or "mortal kombat beer" for the fire spewin dragon on the label, used to be 24 for $24 and 5.5% to boot! hopefully they bring that deal back this summer.
Coors light: never bought it, excluding times when ive split on pitchers when shitty bars only have molson products. drink it all the time, its a good chugging/hangover/work beer. im kinda surprised at how much ive drank for how much ive paid. plus its an in/out beer. 1 in, 2 out. i fuckin piss like no other on lite beer. fuckin corona must be recycled mexican piss or something.
molson canadian sucks, and export gives me a headache. i can't even think of other crap they brew.
can't wait to go on a tour of the labatt brewery, $5 i think. hopefully they let you do taste testing along with the free shirt at the end. just hook it to my veins!

belgian white beers are meant to have a slice of orange, where corona needs a slice of lime

Liss 04-11-2006 07:35 PM

I like corona light with or without the lime, as long as its ice cold.

i wasn't aware of that. i've had hoegaarden (umm hoegaarden would be considered a belgian white beer right?? i'm just kinda guessing here) once before and i thought it was perfectly good on its own. but maybe if i ever drink it again i'll try it with an orange slice.

Torre82 04-11-2006 11:55 PM

Budweiser, Coors.. if its a hot day Rolling Rock. Bud select with vodka works. Guinness ONLY from the tap. The bottle is just a travesty, and the can needs a 10-minute pour to truly approach the tap. Rocket widgets and c02 aside.. so many beers are made obsolete by throwing back a few pints from tap.

Beer.. I love it but its like having coke around with friends over. (not the drink) Plus you need your own variety. I really cant stand drinking out (too expensive) or drinking at a friends 'cuz most of my friends drink that nut brown ale crap. And light/lite. Ech! Its 95+% water as it is, in 'merica. They always give me the WTF look when I pour vodka/whiskey into my beer. Lightweights.

Lessee.. mixed drinks. Really only Guinness Draught and Jack or half/half jack and bailey's. No ice, babe. Make it in the shaker with ice. Pour. There ya go!

Besides that, lately I've been neglecting my booze rack and tea shelf for the Gevalia Signature blend 3/4 with skim 1/4 and filtered water. (coffee)

Inbetween replenishing energy and electrolytes I've grown partial to that new Vault energy drink. Makes a good mixer and its still 2 for a dollar at the local stores.
