If you drink beer, what beer do you drink?
Do you drink a beer daily and if so what is it named and where is it brewed.

Are you dedicated to this brewry or do buy others. Do you wish you could buy a better beer, ale, stout or barlywine?

Have you ever had better than a Coors or Budwiser or anyother not intendid for the masses type Brew.

Im seriously intrested from all of the posters here.

I rarely drink beer at all, but when I do, it's usually Guinness. I love that stuff. I found a place that has Beamish on tap, but I haven't tried it yet. I'm told it's good so maybe I'll have some this weekend.

If I'm just at a party and the only thing to drink is what other people bring, I like to drink Leinenkugel's Honeyweiss because it's palatable and usually a given that someone has it along.

Other decent stuff is Fat Tire, Bass, and Harp.
Most everything else I either don't like or rarely drink.

I love beer.
My favorite type's hefe-weizen. Specifically, the Paulaner and Red Hook brands.

I never cared for Bass or Guinness much, I think they taste flat compared to Murphy's Irish Stout - I love that stuff when I can get it.

Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale is good, I drink that a lot since it's one of the good ones that they'll serve at bars around here.

After that, I like red ales and just about anything dark. One of the best beers I've had is called Delirium Tremens, but it's not really an every day kind of beer. Plus it costs about 12 bucks a bottle since it's imported from Belgium.

We have a Flying Saucer here in town, and they have around 100 beers on tap and 150 or so bottled I think. And the girls wear catholic schoolgirl uniforms. And big comfortable couches with coffee tables. My favorite place in the world to have a beer, since they also have open mic nights and pint nights (where you get to take the stamped pint glass home with you).

I used to drink tons of shitty lite beer, but I don't anymore unless it's a free pitcher or out of a keg. I've turned into a Beer Knurd -- I like the flavor. :icon32:

they make good beer, don't know if I've had their winter brew or not, but i try and stop by there anytime i am close to it.

I drink LaConner Brewing Co.'s India Pale Ale (LaConner WA) non stop and only vary in the winter brew season when I'll drink Full Sail Wassal Ale (Hood River, OR) and Pyramid Snow Cap (Seattle, WA)

I still do, usually silver bullets or bud lite. Mainly because I drink beer after work every day. I'm looking for more of a "thirst quencher with a buzz" after a shitty day and both of those watery beers do the trick. Also after mowing the lawn I'd rather have a freezing cold coors lite than some heavy beer. Still I will drink anything handed to me and I do like Canadian, English and German beers, but only when I'm in that I'm drinking mood.

I'm way more of a bourbon and scotch Knurd :)

if you can ever get your hands on widmer hefe, don't think twice. not quite paulaner, but way better than red hook.

sad thing about red hook is that its now brewed all over the place, if you ever get out to seattle make sure you stop buy their pub, it really does taste better out here.

Christ, if I were an alcoholic I would've fallen off the bandwagon reading this thread.

Lately I've been drinking Guiness Draught & Smirnoff Ice (I know, I know)

Corona for a lighter beer.
Sam Adams, always good and pretty easy to get
Guiness for when I want a drink & a meal in the same glass.
Fat Tire
Boulevard (Kansas City, MO brewery. Not sure how far they distribute)
Heineken
Grolsch
Coors Light if I want a bubbly glass of water
Rolling Rock is pretty decent

very nice beer - not to bitter but still quite tasty; not to heavy but still not flushy.

Warsteiner, various Sam Adams, Killian's, Guinness, Harp, Bass, Red Oak, various Saranac ales and lagers, Heineken occasionally, and when I'm back home I patronize my friend's microbrewery. They make some fantastic stuff, Firehouse Amber Ale, Dead Horse Ale, Ringworm Ale, Payday, Duck's Breath, lots of good stuff.

edit: Mein Gott! How could I have forgotten the hefeweizen?
