Recommend me a Beer
 

I usually drink Miller Lite or Natural Light and never try much of anything else unless I visit a restaurant with a micro brewery in it so....


What would someone like me who drinks 12-14 on game day find a tasty treat that I can buy at most regular stores.

Newcastle

Michelob Ultra

Modelo Especial

Blue Moon

Pyramid Hefeweizen

How is that Blue Moon you speak of? I see it everywhere on tap here

I can't stand Blue Moon. :Lin:

Blue Moon or Boulevard wheat.

How bout Samuel Adams?

It's made by Coors, enough said.

"If" you can get it down there, try this:

Ok not first choice.

I don't like Bitter beer is this bitter Bwana?

It's a light beer, goes down very easy. Some people like to add a slice of orange to them. The orange compliments the beer very well. IMO its similar to Rolling Rock, just has a touch more citrus taste. Great beer. Has more alcohol content than a Newcastle.

Anybody like Yuengling?

I have drank many rolling rocks, kinda thick beer

I was thinking this as well since most CP can't get it I didn't bring it up. Great stuff.

Gonna guess he doesn't have much option for Boulevard up in Northern Cali.

I don't always drink mass produced beer, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis. If you're drinking a 12-pack or more, maybe would go a little cheaper. As a cheap alternative, I like Miller's Amber Bock.

If you've got it available, Murphy's Irish Red Ale is very tasty.

Blue Moon should be your choice of beer. Buy a 6 pk to taste.

You're a Raider fan.

The cheapest beer should be good for you.

Amstel Light

Thanks.... Milwaukees Best Light it is then

Yuengling is good, though based on what you're drinking, you probably want the light vs. the Lager. If you can take down 12-15 lights, you can probably take down 20 Labatt Blue Lights.

Yuengling is good. I really like their original lager.

What does it taste like?

I have tried Yuengling I may go with that, I like that....

In NC you can't buy beer until noon on Sunday

Define what you mean by "bitter." When it comes to beer bitter can be subjective.

I don't care for the lager, but the black and tan is great.

Is my sarcasm meter turned off? Rolling Rock is "thick"?

Beer that has a bite to it , let me think a minute and see if I can remember what I don't like.... I do like those dark beers

I agree I wouldn't say it's thick.

Amstel Light, Stella Artois, or a good IPA.

Tastes thick to me

You like dark? Try Moose Drool. Thick and very dark. Has somewhat of a chocolately taste.

List what beers you like and don't like that have you tried this far.

they make a special raiders fan brew called prestone.

Uncalled for bitch

It's a crisp, malty amber, especially good for a hot day. It seems to have more carbonation than a lot of beers. Not overly hoppy (bitter), and just generally an easy drink. Pretty typical American lager style.

This is a good recommendation. It's especially good if drank while dying in a fire.

Are you looking for something else that's cheap so that you can down them in a hurry or seriously looking to branch out into the world of non-crap beers? I'm a bit of a beer snob, so my general rule is to stay away from all Domestics and Imports whenever possible and instead look for a good craft brew.

If you're new to the craft world, the best kinds to get into without feeling like they're too weird are generally ambers and wheats. There are tons of them out there, so I won't mention specifics to try - be adventurous!

Not that it REALLY matters, but the beer snob in me requires me to inform you that Blue Moon is made by Coors, Shock Top is made by Budweiser, and Leinenkugels is made by Miller. The beers themselves are fine, but I usually steer clear out of principle.

:p

Moose Drool is a damn good beer! Brewed up in Missoula. MT. I always have some or that out in the Man Cave.

http://miasmaticreview.mu.nu/mt-stat...se%20Drool.jpg

I will have to go look for it.

Don't like Lowenbreu (sp?) Don't like Heineken, Don't like Budweiser, Don't like regular Miller, Don't think I like "Wheaty Bears"

Like Yuengling, Miller Lite Natty's , St. Pauli Girl is ok, Michelob, I think I like "Hoppy Beers"

Any of you try Arrogant Bastard or Hoptimum? Talk about some bitter beers

I love Belgian White beer. Blue Moon sucks though.

I'm all about Hoeggarden

Also, Sam Adams Oktoberfest is out.

If you're planning on knocking back 12-14 I'm not sure I'd go with a dark beer.

Guiness didn't do much for me either

http://girlvsbeer.files.wordpress.co.../05/shiner.jpg

Shiner Bock from Texas

when I'm in a bar with only bud/miller etc, and I'm feeling too cheap for a microbrew, this is the beer I look for...not sure if you find it in california

easy to drink, just a touch sweet, doesn't taste like urine

I think it's reeruned to push a beer away because it's made by a certain company. It's like your comparing Coors light to Blue Moon. Which is totally irrelevant. Blue Moon beats the shit out of Coors 7 days a week.

Too thick or too much alcohol or will it give me the shits?

How does it taste?

If I were you, I'd look and see if you can find a 12-pack mixer from a good brewery that has a variety of lighter beers. You'll probably find one that has an amber, a pale ale (or an IPA), a stout or porter, and some sort of wild card. That'll help to start giving you the idea of what's what. Then you can go from there.

I'll have to try some of those. I've never had a Belgian white I liked.

It's a Pale Ale... Rolling Rock is not thick at all.

I have not see that yet around here this year, but that is also a good beer.

Well sure. But I choose to support the craft beer industry so that it'll keep growing rather than lining the pockets of Coors. I agree that if you're purely looking for taste, there's nothing wrong with it.

Thats a good idea

Shiner Bock is good.

Top 5 favorite beer of mine.

Darker beers are usually heavier - they're VERY filling. If you're looking for something you can drink all day long, stick with the lighter stuff.

How about a nice wine?

I picked up a 6-pack yesterday. I started noticing them around last weekend.
You're gonna slap me, but I also really enjoy the Sam Adams Cherry Wheat.

Not bad but not first choice.

I'm all for supporting craft beers myself, but like he said he wants to buy the beer at a local store. You won't many craft beers at a local gas station or Albertsons. That's why I said Blue Moon.

BTW, one thing you might not know is that smaller breweries don't distribute everywhere. So, for example, I can't get Yeungling here (though I've tried it many times). That's part of why it's hard to recommend something specific - it's tough to know what you'll find out in your area.

If you are poor Upper Deck scum like me, Keystone Light will do the job well.

This is a Micro Brew/Steakhouse here and I love this beer, based on the description, pick me out a store bought beer



MISS LIBERTY LAGER
Bronze medal winner 2010 μ Gold medal winner 2009
Silver medal winner 2008, 2011 μ Carolinas Championship of Beer
Our Number One seller! Light, dry and refreshing, this fi ltered all malt lager is fermented
cool with a long cold storage to produce a clean beer that is a perfect alternative to the
macro-produced beers of the world. But you don’t need a “Born-On” date when you can
have beer in the delivery room!

Maybe I'm spoiled - I can find New Belgium and Sam Adams just about anywhere out here, and usually many more.

On that page, it calls it an American Pale Lager. If you click on that style, you'll get a list of tons of others that should be similar.

I've had Moosehead's lager - it's tasty. That might be hard to find though.

if you are looking to drink a shitload..try a real pilsner, crisp, easy to drink, and low alcohol

victory prima pils

Sorry for the confusion, yes we can find those pretty easy where I'm at. Guess I wasn't clear on the beers you was recommending. My fault.

Tank 7 is one of my all-time favorites. Man, I wanna go grab one now.

(Saison's in general are incredibly delicious beers, but they do get to be a little sweet if you have a bunch at once.)

I am going to go with a Lager I know this much

lite beer?

anyone drinking lite beer should be taken out back. same with left footed brakers, who are pretty much the same idiots.

Hard to find, but it's a great beer.

My local bartender makes what she calls a Thunder Cloud,Boulevard Wheat and Guinness,I can drink two 25 ouncers in one sitting but that's my limit.

I start off the day with the good stuff but the finish the day with Keystone light as well.

Eh, lager vs. ale is like NFC vs. AFC. There are clear differences in the two, but that's not to say you won't find a Patriots in one and a Packers in the other. Likewise, you can find a Cardinals in one and a Raiders in the other, too. :p

this is a thread hi-jack...but boulevard showed up on a tap in georgia for the first time I've ever seen...never seen it in a liquor store

i always thought their distribution was limited, but maybe they're expanding?

Interesting.... do you know what the split is? 50/50? Is it layered or just all poured together?

Are you talking about a Snake Bite

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/09/09/u2u5y3um.jpg

I don't know if I have ever had their cherry wheat, but their cranberry is hands down the worst beer on the face of the earth. That swill makes skunky Heineken taste like nectar of the Gods!
