Just spent a few weeks in Europe...mainly Belgium, France and the Netherlands. Started off at the Borefts Beer festival. The USA beer scene is red hot but the traditions in Northern Europe are so great. The sours and lambics...all the great Belgium beers. Yum.

Rad, small micro brew out of Minneapolis: Surly. Highly recommend their Furious IPA, Todd The Axeman double IPA, and CynicAle. Only thing I don't like from them is their lager, but I'm not a huge fan of lagers - you may like it though.
Unfortunately for you (from VA?) my favorites are all micro brews for the most part. I am a hipster with beer (and beer alone). My favorite beer is Alaska's Midnight sun. Fallen Angel is a very good golden ale, Pleasuretown and sockeye are great IPA's (pleasuretown edges sockeye), and the Panty Peeler Tripel is good. The later is light but will get you buzzed boasting an 8.5% ABV.
In terms of normal run of the mill summer beers, nothing can quite replace a corona and lime on the beach

I don't like hoppy, wheaty beers. I like stouts and brown ales. My go to beer is the Left Hand Milk Stout. I like the Surly Bender the most among the Surly beers."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted ThompsonComment

You need to try Surly Darkness. Imperial stout and 100% amazing. Also Surly 10 is pretty damn good.Originally posted by HarveyWallbangers View PostOriginally posted by 3irty1Comment

I enjoy beer, but mostly stick to single malt scotch. I need to get schnockered without having to go to the john every five seconds.Comment

It's the most wonderful time of the year.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard CohenComment

Just hosted a martini party last night. I got fairly hammered but did not wake up with the hangover I normally would have if I drank that much beer.Originally posted by George Cumby View PostAll hail the Ruler of the Meadow!Comment

After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.Comment
