I am a big fan of Harpoon IPA. Although sometimes hard to find in the south; so then it is a Sierra Nevada - the one with the green label.
|
Chimay red or blue label when I can. Otherwise, whatever is cold when I am in the mood.
|
I'm a huge fan of cracking open a Magic Hat Number 9 after a long hard training ride
|
My current favorite is Blue Moon (probably because it's always on sale at Safeway). Coors Light is always stocked in my fridge(something about CO?).
Sierra Nevada, Fat Tire, Guiness, Newcastle are good too. I just like beer. :D |
I like most of Great Lakes brews. Goose Island had a great seasonal Harvest Ale this year. Some good stuff in MI. too like Founders and New Holland. I got Hatterized last summer there.
I'm not above a cold Bud in a can tho. |
I like beer. It is good.
|
I usually drink Trumer Pils, brewed in Berkeley (or at the original brewery in Salzburg, Austria). I'm drinking one right now in fact!

Rogue - Hazelnut Brown in the off-season.
Rogue - Hazelnut Brown in season. Bud and miller light when I'm on a diet. |

Botto is sure to say I am quoting him.

"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
India Pale Ales and Dark Porters, i.e. 1554. |
The best beer is whatever they're selling at the last business you encounter at the end of long day touring in the desert, and you tuck it into your sleeping bag and ride on until you find the perfect camp, all alone and hidden and the night falls and stars light up and finally you spritz open your still-cold nightcap. It's always worked for me...except once, in Australia, when I stuffed two beers into the sleeping bag and one somehow opened the other and I got a beer-soaked sleeping bag.
Luckily, the other beer was still fine. |

Hoegaarden or Duvel. Any kind of Beglium ale will do though. Those just happen to be my two favorites. And Duvel running in at 8.5%, it'll get you hammered pretty quick.

Haha, close. 4% max at the grocery store. Have to go to the liquor store to get good beer, and at a premium. Surprisingly, we have some pretty good micros up here. Cutthroat is a great 4%er. The best beer I've had to date is Mac and Jacks Amber. Amazing.
The Redhook brewery is located about 12 miles from my house, 10 miles can be ridden via bike trail. They have many good brews there: cask conditioned ales, Porter and ESB on a nitrous tap. They recently released a porter blended with Starbucks coffee...Needless to say this is one of our favorite places to end our rides. |
Widmer Brothers' Droptop Amber Ale, with their Hefeweizen at a close second. Yay for living in Portland, OR!
|
Winter: Sam Adam's Winter Lager. During season: Yuengling Light
Favorite beer: Bellhaven on Draught (when you can find it), or in the Bottle (if I can't). :beer: |

Edit: When I was up there, I found the Black Jack porter in Tacoma. I think it was at Hells Kitchen, but it may have been another one of the other bars we stumbled into. That stuff is really good. |
Can't say "no" to a good IPA
|
I make my own beer....I have a nice Blonde ale in bottles now....when I'm not drinking those it's Guinness.
|
Belgians are great but expensive. I've had the holy grail (Westvleteren 12, look it up), and enjoy a variety of St. Bernardus brews from time to time but supporting (relatively) local breweries is much more rewarding and lighter on the wallet.
Smuttynose probably does not make a single bad beer - they are my go to brewery when I am not feeling particularly inspired. Sixpoint, from Brooklyn, is amazing beer and if a bar has it I will more than likely get a pint. For stouts I enjoy most British beers that you can get in a can (much better head in a nitro can than a glass bottle, I wish more beers came in cans but it isn't "artisanal" enough these days). I like beer :( |
