lawrocket 3 #1 July 27, 2004 I just thought I'd put up a little poll about beer drinking tastes. I've left many less common varietals off of the list. So, what style of beer do you prefer, meaning, if you had a fat wallet and place to go, what sort of beer would you idealy want to try types of? My wife is hotter than your wife.

Samurai136 0 #2 July 27, 2004 Ah like Guiness and half n' halves. Mmmmmm. The best thing about traveling and beer tasting is finding out how the local brew mixes w/ Guiness. Ken"Buttons aren't toys." - Trillian Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peregrinerose 0 #3 July 27, 2004 Give me a beer you can stand a fork in any day, something that will put hair on my chest. I love a good oatmeal stout the most, but hard to find sometimes.

DrewEckhardt 0 #6 July 27, 2004 I'm fond of tasty ales in both English and non-traditional styles. In warm weather I like a light (can see light through them) bitter beer to brighten my day like IPAs and ESBs. Particular favorites include the Bridgeport bottle conditioned IPA, Fuiller's ESB, Anderson Valley Belk's Bitter, Oasis ESB, Stone IPA or Arrogant Bastard, and dry-hopped Boulder Hazed and Infused. For cold I prefer black beers to brighten my mood especially oatmeal stouts and porters that aren't burnt. Examples include Barney Flats Oatmeal Stout (better than Sammy Smith's), and Sammy Smith's Taddy Porter. Sometimes a smoother drinking beer off a nitrogen tap is nice like Guiness or Bodington's. And when I want something with less bite, a real draught of hoppy ale is nice. Sad how few American pubs can pull a beer for you like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougiefresh 0 #9 July 27, 2004 As any good beer drinker knows, it depends on several factors. 1. Mood of drinking environment. 2. Temperature of drinking environment. 3. Mood of drinker. 4. Temperature of drinker. I'm partial to wheats, but I'll certainly drink something else if the situation calls for it. Except shitty watery american macrobrews. Those just suck.Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. --Douglas Adams Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #10 July 27, 2004 QuoteAs any good beer drinker knows, it depends on several factors. 1. Mood of drinking environment. 2. Temperature of drinking environment. 3. Mood of drinker. 4. Temperature of drinker. True. I see there are some real beer connoisseurs here. For me, in most circumstances I'd choose a bitter ale or a pale ale. Still, a cream ale a la Boddington's or Tetley's goes well with most any mood. I rarely ever get a pilsner, though. It probably is on th ebottom ranks of my beer drinking. Not that I don't like them, it's simply that I would always prefer something else. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #11 July 28, 2004 Arrgh! I can't pick more than one? You're killing me here! Since I can't vote more than one I've decided to list them: Favorites are: IPAs - The more hops the better Scottish Ales - Can't get enough of that smoked flavor Porters - Full of roasty goodness. God, I love beer! - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #16 July 28, 2004 Well, the altbier I tasted (I think it was "Schlussel") seemed to me to be, more or less, and English ale. It was mighty nice, too. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
