great beers

[red]

ok, so up until about 5 months ago i was nothing but a bud light drinker. every once in a while i would try something else, but but light was my main go-to

then 5 months ago i started brewing my own, we'll call it shit. ever since then i have been experimenting with many famous beers from around the world

i just stopped at ridgeview liquor store just south of the stadium today after the game and found many hard to find beers that i have been wanting to try

right now i'm trying a trappistes rochefort #10, brewed by monks in belgium, and its unlike any beer i've ever had in my life. its amazing

anybody got any other good ones?

and don't say westvleteren. i don't need to cry anymore

RedHook has some nice beers.

The ESB and the Sunrye are excellent.

New Glarus has some great ones too. Wisconsin Belgian Red and Spotted Cow are my faves.

Another one that I really like but is hard to find is Mackeson Triple Stout. It's VERY thick and dark, almost molasses-like stout. Fan-dam-tastic.

I like to try different beers too, but my fav always seems to be Blue Moon. I actually do not care for the general brands of Miller or Budweiser, although I will take a Bud over Miller. I like Chicago local beers of 312 and Goose Island. It's fun to try different stuff, even the stuff brewed at the local pubs. We have a few pubs right in my neighborhood.

I like Goose Island. There quite a few places in my area that have Blue Moon on tap.

Goose makes a Blue Moon type called 312 thats pretty good.

My top 2 are newcastle and sierra nevada.

ok, so i still have a lot of cool beers to try

right now i am trying an orval, another trappist beer from belgium

this one is a bit too hoppy for my liking, a little too spicey

however last night i tried a duvel, and i got to say it might just be my all time favorite beer. everything in that beer just hit me perfect

to me this was a liquid orgazim.....


well, you know what i mean

If you can find Boont Amber Ale east of the Mississippi you should feel lucky. This California Amber Ale is awesome. Its at the top of my list and in my Fridge right now.

Boont Amber Ale  just won the  Silver Medal   at the  2003 Great American Beer Festival  , in the American-Style Amber/Red Ale category, has several other medals  , as well, and was named the "best beer brewed in Northern California," by the San Francisco Bay Guardian.

Boont Amber Ale is a medium bodied pale ale with a beatiful copper color, a robust head, and the rich flavor of caramel malt. This very smooth and exceptionally drinkable beer is excellent with steaks, chicken, pasta, and other flavorful meals.

As with all of our products, Boont Amber Ale is never sterile filtered nor heat pasteurized, and should be stored in refrigeration. However, to fully enjoy its rich and complex flavor, it should be served between 40° and 45°F

5.8 % Alcohol by Volume

RedHook has some nice beers.

I'm lukewarm on Red Hook. I like some and don't like others, but I did go to the Red Hook Brewery in Seattle several years ago.
