The 'favorite beer' thread.

It's been said before ITT, but Southern Tier just doesn't make a bad beer. We did these two over the weekend, and I'm picking up (at least) a case of Pumking on Saturday.

That Chocolate orange stout looks amazing. Ill have to pick one up. Tried Weyerbacher yet? They have an AMAZING pumpkin ale. I do agree, I haven't had a ST I didn't enjoy.

That said, Its that time of the year again! I'm on a quest to try every octoberfest I can find. So far I've only gotten my hand on Dominion and Sierra. Need to hit up the Whole Foods in Manassas so I can pick up some top tier stuff. Also it's been awhile since I've had a real Stout. Since moving to Winchester the selection has dwindled.

Still, I'm excited. Fuck football, this is BEER season.

It was! I picked up the last one my go-to place in Florida had last night. Hopefully I can find some here at home too.

Yep, we got a 4 pack of it last week and I brought one home as well - it's very good. It's my second favorite to Pumking.

I really like Dogfish Head's Punkin Ale. I think that's some of the best Pumpkin-themed beer. I'll have to try that chocolate orange stout though.

Im following you guys and bought a 4 of Southern Tier Pumking. WOW. Most pumpkin beers Ive had still side more to beer flavor than pumpkin but this has that dessert pumpkin pie zing to it. I just wish I knew it'd be $20 before I got to the counter.

Lol @ the $20 comment. When I first got into fine beers, a friend set me up. Told he he'll get the 30 pack of cheap shit if I'll buy the 6er of Troegs mad elf. Fucker.

Heh... it's high alcohol though, so it's like 2 beers in one!

If anyone who likes IPA's ever visits Albuquerque, you gotta try Bosque Brewery's River Walker IPA.

so i like every kind of leinenkugels seasonal shandies, ive had a whole years worth of them now, ive enjoyed every one of them great everyday beers to drink.

Edit: dog is my husky, Baron he likes it too.

[lambo]

ughh I can't do shandy's... or pumpkin beers

[kickinindian]

yea they are not for everyone, i just like them because they are not bland like most light lagers are. my personal favorite though is the cranberry ginger one they do.

Bingo!

Fellow Vermonter here, yess we are spoiled! I've always had a love for Longtrail, and anything from the Vermont pub and brewery. I remember this summer they had a beer with watermelon flavor, can't remember the name but it was sooo good!

And for Euro/Belgium stuff

Orval
Westmalle Trippel
Witkap Trippel
Lachouffe
Geuze
And offcourse barbaar! And the list goes on, pretty spoiled in Belgium hehe. But I'm crazy about American beers to. People over here almost take it as an insult whenever I start about American beers being on the same level

Do you currently live in Belgium? Have you visited any Trappist monasteries? I tried a few Trappist beers at the Farmhouse and fell in love.

Beer is fine... but this Ransom Old Tom Gin is a real treat!

Drinking my way through the Idea Bartender's Guide, published before 1920. We have a liquor thread!?
