Favorite Ale/ Lager

deth2naturalice · May 9th, 2003, 03:22 AM

I've been reading some methods on brewing techniques and I was wondering what some of the board viewers favorite drinks happen to be? I've been stuck on Hacker- Pschorr for a while now.

I like natural ice

deth2naturalice · May 9th, 2003, 04:30 AM

hahaha.... my roomates friend stayed at my house for a few weeks and all he ever drank was Natrual ice... at least 8 beers a day.. there was so much of that shit in my fridge that I couldn't fit any food and in trying the beer I discovered it's disgusting taste...hence my disgust.

Patric · May 9th, 2003, 04:30 AM

I drink Lager mostly. Preffered brews are Mariestads, Carl's Påske, Staropramen, Pilsner Urguell, Harboe and Grolsch. Though everything that's not too watery goes!

Cimmerian · May 9th, 2003, 05:19 AM

hmmm grolsch. Mostly though, I like my pub ales, such as boddingtons, or you could just give me a nice creamy guiness any fucking day.

Patric · May 9th, 2003, 05:30 AM

Guinness is ok, but man a nice fat Beamish or Murphy's is not bad either...

Cimmerian · May 9th, 2003, 05:41 AM

absolutley, murphys is a fine, fine beer. Im also quite partial to most any dark ale, most notably new castle.

Sumerian · May 9th, 2003, 08:34 AM

My 2 favorite, right now, are Shiner Bock and Paulner's Heffeweissen.

Patric · May 9th, 2003, 09:14 AM

New Caslte is excellent, cute bottle too. Ever tried Bishop's Finger? I think they put this Xmas-herb in it (don't know the English name for it, Ingefæra in Swedish), real special tasting.

TexunNYC · May 9th, 2003, 11:30 AM

Warsteiner, Paulaner & Spaten are my favs, but only if I'm in Germany, or on the beach in Florida.

Otherwise, I'm a TECATE-kinda gal (gotta stay true to my Mexican roots!)

North Sea Stormrider · May 9th, 2003, 01:06 PM

Molson Canadian for this side of the pond
and Heineken from the other

Cimmerian · May 9th, 2003, 01:08 PM

can't say I've had the pleasure patric...sounds intriguing though. I'm going to try this beer today called abbot's ale which my friend keeps trying to convince me is smoother than guiness...I'll believe it when I taste it.

Eisbär · May 9th, 2003, 02:36 PM

My fave beers are Holsten and Jever. Do somebody here know that stuff

?

Odis · May 9th, 2003, 03:00 PM

Holsten knallt am dollsten 8)

Patric · May 9th, 2003, 03:09 PM

Just got back from a cold smooth Ottakringer. That shit is nice!

Cadarn · May 9th, 2003, 03:10 PM

Time ago I had this beer called Barbar (from Belgium I think...) with honey inside.REALLY GOOD!!!

Patric · May 9th, 2003, 03:59 PM

Ah I don't like beer with many tastes. But I make a very good autumn drink with wine, honey, apples and cinnamon. Good stuff.

Oh and remember that special herb I was talking about, in the Bishop's Arms beer? It's called GINGER.

PS: Cadarn, if you wanna look up that beer you can find it (and all other sorts) here http://tolsun.oulu.fi/kbs/beer/kbsbeer_index.htm good luck!

Belgar · May 9th, 2003, 07:32 PM

Wow, what an interesting subject indeed, being from Belgium I ll rank my fav by country hehehe.

Here in the US hmmm I ll pass, only good beer i have had could sierra nevada or sam adams

Denmark, my choice goes straight to the Giraff or Elephant made by Carlsberg with the original glass, kick ass glasses btw.

Guiness of course get's my vote fer Ireland

Gordon Ale Scotch gets my vote fer Scotland

Fin du Monde for Canada

France goes that strong beer that has a lucifer ridin' the bottle (forgot the name)

Germany hmmm they have qty but not quality, in my opinion, I could take Becks, but tis own by the belgians now

Sweden, never had any swedish beer

Belgium will always get my vote, nothing like drinking a beer named Lucifer, Judas, Oer Bier (whore beer), Divine, Delirium, Troll beer, Witches beer .... all ranking in the high 9% up to 13% gotta love it.

Anyways, there are kick ass beer all over the world, Belgium gets the crown, just my 2cents

burning creation · May 10th, 2003, 12:18 AM

Ill take a Guinness any day, acyually I just had some Irish kids steal me a 12 pack so Im set for tonight

burning creation · May 10th, 2003, 12:19 AM

oh and Sierra Nevada's pretty good to

Odis · May 10th, 2003, 05:50 AM

"Germany hmmm they have qty but not quality, in my opinion, I could take Becks, but tis own by the belgians now"

I don't think so belgar 8) . But i can understand you because you only know the big names like becks, löwenbräu, Tucher etc..
But in germany every small town has its own beer and you can't say that all of them have no quality.

Patric · May 10th, 2003, 05:52 AM

Elephant is a fun one, it will blow your head off quite easily. I preffer Carlsberg's "Påske", though and Tuborg Classic...Danish dymanite for once.

Also, most brews from Poland and Austria kick ass!

Odis, you are prob. right on that one, each time I went to Germany I could drink this big ass 1 liter mug and never paid attention to the local small town beer. Same in Belgium, my village brews 3 different kind of beers while the next village has at least 5, one of them being a honey brew called Barbar, they name it "warrior's rest beer".

LeoP · May 10th, 2003, 01:35 PM

I prefer Mariestads and Pilsner Urquell. Also some darker ales, specially with food. Chec beer is actually some of the best I have tried.

I would really like to like Guiness, but I just cant! It's like drinking sement! The only advantage is that if you're low on cash and still wanna go out you can get a Guiness and it will last you the rest of the evening

A guiness a day keeps the doctor away
