Parksider I have been enjoying Ultras recently but an abv in the low 4s is hard to appreciate. 15 years ago that would have been perfectly fine, how the explosion in American craft brewing has changed things is amazing. I really think we now make the best beers in the world, took that from Germany almost a decade ago!
Jonathon Yet, you don’t like IPA (shakes head in disbelief). Today’s IPA isn’t all about the bitter as it once was! The only beers I haven’t jumped on guard with is of the sour variety. When I first started brewing 25 years ago we just referred to that as ‘bad beer’ and would dump it down the drain or give it to our friends just looking for a buzz.

@s-a-m Sam’s the man!

IPA’s are to hoppy for my taste, I prefer a good dark stout or darker ale, just my preference!
-
@s-a-m I love me some stouts, porter, etc… I haven’t met a beer or spirit that I would turn down!
Joe Hell Iron house stout! I will say is one to hunt down and lienkugel creamy dark is another one!

@s-a-m Joe Hell Black Butte Porter doesn’t suck

Jonathon s request, please list your drink of choice. I’ll start, I love bourbon and Coors Light or a good old Coors yellow belly. My bourbons of choice are Elijah Craig, Bulliet, Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam Black and W.L. Wellers. Now if I just want to pound down some drinks a good 7&7 can’t be beat.

@s-a-m When Yuengling became widely available I was sure that was the death of Bud and a few other heavy lagers, same price and infinitely better (in my opinion) but you can show a horse water but you can’t make them drink good beer!

Even Bud light lime? Can’t do that! Lol

Tex_77 I enjoy Crown on almost any occasion and as many Busch Lights or Bud Selects that I can poor down the hatch. When out and about I like to get into the Stouts at most breweries. I don’t believe that I have met a bourbon that I don’t care for. I will pretty much indulge in anything but Rum.

Departing Contestant I credit Black Butte, Full Sail Amber and Red Hook ESB as the beers that changed my life and started my brewing fascination well over 20 years ago. I haven’t had any of them in a while. Time to revisit!

erich52 Rum can be delicious, but I don’t like spiced rum.

Joe Hell Bend has a lot of good breweries. However, each year Deschutes makes a small batch beer that, if you can get any, is amazing and always very different. there is a taproom, sorta, by the Primal Cuts Market in Bend Oregon that has an amazing selection of beers and if you get to know the bartender there is usually a small keg of limited release beer from Deschutes. you should go to bend and spend A WEEKEND

Blue moon with dinner is another good one!

Living up here we have lots of IPA’s but my preference for beer is and imported beer Rolling Rock in bottles, just wished we could get it in draft. The Other necessity is 16 ounce, 4 finger Gin and Tonic with extra lime in a large mason jar to combat the malaria from mosquitos and prevent scurvy

Back when I drank more often my drink of choice was Crown Black on the rocks but on occasion I’d have a sip of some Crown XO. I spent 9 of my 20 years in the Air Force stationed in England so I’m partial to New Castle Brown Ale, it is best enjoyed sitting on a stool in an English pub and being a draft not bottle.
