I've got so many its hard to list a favorite ... however I do have a couple I do favor over the others.

I'd have to say:

Guinness ... I know kind everyones favorite but it's so damn good.

Delerium Tremmens a Belgian blond beer (triple yeast) ... probably one of my all time favorites. Almost imposible to describe the great flavor.

Gulden Draak .. another Belgian beer (dunno why I love belgian beer so much!) that is considered a "Dark Tripple" ... its similiar (i think) to a blond beer in that it uses three different yeasts for the brew process but it is much much darker. Its 10.5% alcohol content so watch out drinking it! Thats like 3 bud lights! I learned the hard way one time when I downed like 8 of them at a beer festival haha!

Be forewarned that I am not a beer snob. You can usually catch me at my local bar drinking your standard buds, millers etc (whatever is on special). However if I feel like going all out I usually do the above (and many others). We have a bar here in DC that has like 200+ beers in bottles thats a absolute blast to goto.

I don't typically drink beer, but I'll make an exception on a sunny day, as long as you provide the following.....

:mrgreen: Lovely friend/thread to start off with

I do enjoy beer, and my taste various as well as I always like trying out new beers. I also enjoy the Guinness beer like you GoodOmens. I have tried the Delerium Tremmens and I found it alright, I'm not a keen drinker of white beer but, I'll give you a thumbs up for that one. Plus the Gulden Draak is a nice subtle beer too. I don't like Corona extra, for some reason it just doesn't do it for me. My continuing list of enjoyment of beers are as follows;

Sagres, a Portuguese beer
Keo, a greek cypriot beer from Cyprus
Stella Artois once in a while
And a couple of others I just can't think of at this moment :o

I'll get back to this thread once I get my beer tactics in check, but yes I do enjoy a variety of beer.

Hmm never had Sagres or Keo and both sound good.

I've had Stella before and while its not a favorite of mine, I like it better then most other beers. The micro-brew "phenomenon" over here in the states has caused a lot of interesting beers to surface. The Colorado area has tons but other areas of the country are catching up. Going to the supermarket can be a treat sometimes with all the choices 8-)

I've never seen this in the store. I just checked out the website and it looks like a bud light. How does it compare to Corona?

It's similar in flavor but I feel it taste slightly better. You still drink it with a lime. I've never done a side by side comparison to tell a difference in flavor.

I just drink what's available.
I like Samuel Adams and really dig the Autumn Ale.
Or whatever they call the special one they make for autumn. It's delicious.

I'm not a heavy drinker per sei, but i do drink socially, like if me and my buds play poker.
