Didn't see a beer thread.

What are you drinking, what are you looking forward to drinking?

Recently I've had the misfortune of drinking some Heineken and Rolling Rock. I must be late to realize this, but are most lesser tier lagers basically the same? I'm drinking the Heineken right now and it just has that all around low quality taste to it.

Got some Arrogant Bastard in the fridge. Looking forward to that. Also got a sixer of Coors, because fuck it. I was heavily drinking IPS/DIPAs and Stouts for awhile, but holy fuck I got tired of the intensity and insane hangovers. Trying to cut back a little bit flavor wise.

Yeah dude because beer that's way too sweet hoppy and intense in flavor just works with immediately being too drunk to taste flavor properly.

German wheat beers are the best wheat beers. Weihenstephaner is the best of them all, but Franziskaner is great too and probably easier to get for most Burgerinos. Paulaner is also acceptable. Avoid Erdinger.

It's really not correct though. I enjoy a low ABV stout like Left Hand's Milk Stout just as much as, if not more, than I enjoy a meme high ABV one like Avery's Mephistopheles. Just for different reasons. There's just different things to enjoy about different styles/levels of beer, all of which have varying ABV's.

Tried pic related for the first time today, it was honestly pretty nice. Also had a bomber of Evil Twin's Double Liquid Fudge, which was pretty good.

I have a friend who is the biggest pleb you can imagine. He wasn't allowed to eat salt as a young kid for health reasons so he developed the most plebby palate you can imagine also the family is quite poor. He took sips of craft beer after craft beer and grimaced and ended up giving away the beer or pouring it out. What I did was to keep talking about different beers passionately, like I would be talking about trading cards or sports teams. This made him want to experience the same thing I did. He told me that he one day will succeed in liking 'odd beers' as well. He kept trying and failing trying and failing.
Suddenly he wrote to me on Skype that he now sat at home drinking four craft beers or so without pouring them out and kept going. I didn't even say anything (because I didn't want to risk spoiling it) but I knew he had reached his breakthrough. Today he drink most styles of beer without pouring them out or giving them away. For some it takes an awful lot of work but I believe anyone can learn to appreciate beer.

It was a really chill festival with a couple hundred beers but only maybe two people in line at a time at most. Nice day out, but hot.

Not too many things really stood out to me. Bear Republic had a new Racer 5 variation that was probably my favorite. Lots of fruity and spiced shit (more than one guava beer, for example). The Sierra Nevada collaborations weren't anything special, but it was still a really fun day.

There was also a gay pride event going on somewhere, and a knitting and buttons convention type thing, so last night/this morning it was fun walking around and having everyone either drunk/hungover, proud, or homely with fanny packs and quilts under their arms.

So we all know the big trend in craft brews is to do some IPA that's extremely bitter because of the exorbitant amounts of hops used.

Just like a regular IPA/APA especially those with more balanced midwestern or east coast style hop profiles (such as pic related), or a stout, or a wheat beer, maybe even try something sour. The choices are incredibly vast if you have access to a grocery store or liquor store

Yeah, see >>7774794

It was definitely a bit of an expense for me too right now, but was the first time me and the couple people I went with all had a weekend off together, so decided to make a little trip out of it.

Actually paid the $20 extra to be let in an hour early, which was honestly well worth it to be able to check everything out before the crowd, chat with the brewers, and get all the swag before it was gone. Should have brought sunscreen, though.

This was the first beer I bought when I turned 21 pretty recently (not the first beer I've had of course)

Pretty good, the bitterness takes a bit to get used to but there's some good flavor in there.

I also had Oberon pretty recently and that was interesting. Had a neat sorta grapefruit-y taste. What do you guys think about it?

Did a lil research. Mini-kegs. Gallon and half-gallon. Basically made to fit in the fridge (why they don't put it down on the side and make it larger, I do not know). They are 200-300 bucks though, which seems like a ripoff to me.
>>
>>7776030

My plan has basically been to go in for the NB kegging setup, get a local guy to convert a mini-fridge for me, and just go with that.

I'd do a couple junk runs with some easy ales before going for the hefe. Just to get the feel for it so you don't lose motivation over an infected batch on a beer you were stoked to make.

I wouldn't bother doing it myself. As much as it would be fun to say I made this, I'm sure I could manage something, but slipping the ridiculously cheap retired carpenter that was a friend of my uncle's that Dad hired for the shed and model railway a few bob would save much swearing on my behalf.

Yes and no.
If you drink something ''light'' (Hefeweizen, pilsner, IPA, etc), you should drink it at this temperature.

For more robust thing (stout, Porter, Double and more, etc), I personally try it cold and wait it to be warmer because you can taste the complexity of the beer.

Where to get and how much? Had the Tripel and the one with aus hops, swung out on the baltic porter though. It is not only just looks, they are pretty great.
>>
>>7776592
Well you aren't ever going to taste shit in certain beers, and IPAs are probably better cold because it takes the edge off the bitterness and aroma. A stout, brown ale or bitter can be cellar cool but no colder though.

I haven't tried that one but I can tell from the back that it's very different from Gose Gone Wild though it might be an amazing traditional gose. GGW is dry hopped with Citra and Amarillo so it's got really citrus-y and fruity hop flavors that get amplified by the tartness of the gose. It's an awesome flavor I haven't tasted in any beer before though I have liked almost all goses I've tried.

This isn't true. Alcoholic beverage sale laws vary state by state.

In some states, liquor stores can't sell beer, in others they can. In some, grocery stores can't sell beer, or can only sell beer up to a certain ABV, or none at all. In some states you can literally buy any type of alcohol anywhere.

Generally it's only the ABC states that have wine/liquor/spirits stores that don't sell beer.

Wine isn't allowed at grocery stores, beer isn't allowed at liquor stores. It sounds awful in theory but actually I kind of see the benefit having seen the big wine stores in other states, the wine stores here are really honed in on their individual niches, the kind of wine shop culture isn't really seen elsewhere and it would certainly evaporate overnight if the archaic laws were overturned

Groceries sell a horrible abomination called "wine product", everyone has bought it once, and nobody buys it twice
>>
>>7778600
You mean "fortified wine," basically pure fruit and raw liquor? Like Boone's Farm and Maddog 20/20? I would imagine groceries sell shit like that.

And I know what you mean by "wine culture;" living in the midwest I see people buying Barefoot and cherry wine by the cartful with absolutely no regard for taste, but of course, here it's readily stocked in grocery stores.

>>7778608
I believe the back of the label says something like "malt beverage with fine french wine added", it's been a while. I've had some seriously bad alcoholic beverages and this one ranks in the top 5 easily. Much worse than Boones Farm. You can look up some of the reviews online. It was only invented to fill a niche at NY grocery stores, I'm confident that 100% of their sales are by accident, from people who weren't paying attention and grabbed a wine-shaped bottle.

Not sure about Boone's Farm or MD 20/20, as I haven't been in the market for either since over a decade ago, but I think they're in liquor store territory.
>>
>>7778625
Well that sounds absolutely disgusting but it's hard to imagine anything cheaper or easier than Boone's Farm for a poor piece of shit to drink, so any sales of what you're describing--as you said--must be accidental/incidental. A bottle of Boone's Farm over here comes to just over five dollars with tax and any idiot can buy a shelf of it at any supermarket that stocks liquor.

I just bought heineken for the first time. I'm used to drinking Corona since it seems to be the only thing the fucking NEX ever has in stock when I stop by. Tried dos equis yesterday, and it tasted like a less shitty version of Corona. Heineken though just has a strong bitter taste immediately, where Corona has more of a broad after taste of bitterness. Dos equis is lacking in any real shit flavoring.

Should I just deal with it and drink these six bottles of heineken, or should I just stop drinking now while I'm sober enough to drive to get something else?

>lindemans cuvee renee

Aside from a few bars that stock some really expensive stuff, that's virtually the only gueuze I can ever find at the liquor store.

If you are in Pennsylvania then try some of Free Will's sours. Cuvee Aigre specifically is very good but they have many fruited sours that are good too. I like Tarte Nouveau and it's a good entry level sour beer.

also this one is amazing >>7777955 and Anderson Valley's goses are good too. The AV ones are more acidic and salty than Stillwater's.

How do you go about sourcing rarer hops? Does your brewhouse ever fuck with Berliner Weise? I heard you pretty much need a separate set of equipment to do sour ales. Are you brewing anything interesting/strange?

Also fruit beers, is it worth experimenting with them?

Not that guy but the brewery I work at has a fruit beer as their flagship so I would say it's worth to fuck around with different fruits in beer. Sourcing rarer hops isn't hard, just hella expensive (at least what the head brewer says). We used to do a cherry berliner weisse for summers and we used the system we have now though we do have separate fermenters/brites for sour beers.

St. Bernardus beers

Try a few different ones and see what you like or dislike from dubbels, tripels, and quads(also called Belgian dark ales and other names, but Abt 12 is one.)
>>
>>7791144
I would begin with a few trappists to see if you like em. Rochefort, Orval and Chimay could be a decent start.

Try a few sours too, Lindemans or Boon are both solid. If you have never drank a sour, try to forget what you know about beer, since the expectation might ruin it for you. They are quite different from other beers.

Some people don't like hoppier Belgian ales, citing that they are not as good value as their counterparts from other countries. I would give them a try, maybe Straffe Hendrik, De Ranke, Troubadour and Viven could be good here.
Het Anker makes some good stuff. Gouden Carolus or if you can get Cuvee van de Keizer should be pretty good.

Het Anker is one of my favourites. Gouden Carolus or if you can get Cuvee van de Keizer should be pretty good (Blue>Red).

The bottom line is that you want to try them out to decide for yourself, maybe these pointers help.

>>
>>7794980
The problem is so many people talk about Yuengling as though its more than just a decent choice amongst shit tier beer. SO many people like me went into trying it with expectations of it being a legitimately ok beer only to find it is just another macro lager
>>
>>7795004
I actually live in Wisconsin and its all about spotted cow amongst those sort of people here. People really aren't that into Leinies here

Spotted Cow is legitimately an ok beer though, quite unlike Yuengling or Leinies
>>
>>7772785
I don't like drinking food, so usually water
>>
>>7795025
Spotted cow dramatically outsells Leinies in WI. I assume Leinies sells a little better in Wisconsin than the country as a whole, especially in the sparsely populated 'up north' region. But Spotted Cow very clearly fills the people just moving on to good beer after drinking Miller Lite their entire lives position here. It literally outsells Bud Light, which is a feat of its own

Also, yuengling is way the fuck worse than even Leinies, so if PA people really consider it a legitimate beer, that is sad
>>
>>7795025
Except thats inaccurate in several ways
>>
>>7795025
>>7795040
Is Leinies Leinenkugel?

Anyway, I'm a PA "craft beer bro" and I consider Yuengling to be the best of the macro-priced beers and I think it is agreeable though obviously not as good as great microbrews.

When people from PA talk up Yuengling you should understand that we're comparing it to other macro beers or at least macro-priced beers and not stuff like Heady Topper.

I see all their fruit shandy's here in the summer but don't particularly like them. They're definitely present in PA but not particularly popular and I didn't even realize they offered non-fruit beers for a long time. I thought they were like a Mike's Hard Lemonade of breweries.
>>
>>7795184
I think it depends on what market you are in, in midwestern markets they have a wide variety of beer.
The other guy was talking about their original lager which has been around forever and is just like any other adjunct lager, I'm not a fan of their shandy beers but those are a booming market now so they have a new one out every couple months, some of their other beers are ok though. Amongst the fake craft brewers they might be my favorite

I like blue moon and have a bunch of smitten in my fridge that's just OK.

We out here. Tried this stuff yesterday and it was actually really good. It's got a little hop bite to it and is easy drinking as fuck. I'll gladly buy it over premium

Matching the style to the glass as close as I get. I don't have that many beer glasses though. I have 2 Guinness glasses I use for lager, dry stout, amber and hefeweizen, and two 'ale' glasses (the shape is something between a snifter and tulip) that I use for stronger ales, stouts, weizenbock things like that. And I have some slightly larger wine glasses but I don't use them very often anymore for beer, but I did put Berliner Weisse in them quite recently. Being an attic dweller I don't want to overcrowd my space with glasses otherwise I'd probably get a proper hefe glass and IPA glass.

Boozier than last years version! To the point the coffee and chocolate starts fading.
They probably used way fresher kegs this year, must have been some bourbon left in the bottom of them!

Not alot of beer drinkers out this Sunday evening i guess so i will bump it with another founders one i had tonight.

First time i enjoyed Mosaic hops on its own. Always got some kind of oniony taste from it but it seems founders found the right way to use it for sure!

This was a particularly good IPA from a loval brewery. IPA with spruce tips. I haven't had any beers from Jester King before so I wonder what they're like.

>>7797083
Still very good though. The heat will die down if we can wait long enough before drinking them all.

Just turned 21 earlier this year. I've only had Corona, Heineken, Sol, Dos Equis, Tecate and Redd's so far.

What's a good beer for newfags?

I work a block away from them. Very familisr with their beer.

You wait in line for thst can?

My journey began with Guinness, Kilkenny and Newcastle, albeit many many cans of each. Then one day I went right onto a Russian Imperial Stout.

But you don't have to follow that route. Just buy different beers of different styles and see where it takes you.
>>
>>7797882
Yeah I did for about 30-40 minutes. Some of the weeks are very crazy with long lines but others aren't that bad. This IPA was released alongside Calamansi Milkshake and the milkshake IPA's always bring crowds and long lines.

Anyone from Central Texas around here? There's all sorts of new breweries popping up left and right, and I was wondering if there's any of your favorites I should keep an eye out for.

All time favorite summer beer. Goes well with porch sitting, barbecue eating, lawn mowing, anything that causes you to sweat.

>tfw I can't drink it because it's not available in NYC

>>7797729
Deschutes Brewery has tons of great beers its just a matter of what flavors you like.

It bums me out they don't brew this at all times.

Have you had their Lawnmower? It's like the most "porch-sitting beer" I've had.
>>
>>7798674
of course, while i agree lawnmower (and to a lesser extent Weedwacker) is a great porch beer. The summer pils just reminds me of hot summer nights spent with friends around a fire pit smoking cigarettes and telling stories.

Drinking this right now.
I fell in love with this beer at Wrocław Good Beer Festival 2 weeks ago.

>>7795963
Are these only available in PA? I've been looking to try them for months but haven't been able to find them. I'm in NJ just outside NYC.
>>
>>7800375
nvm just found a place in manahattan that sells them
>>
>>7795963
Also PA here, that's a beautiful looking beer. I've tried the fruited Almanac sours and still need to try these ones.

Coronas are for hot days dude. Pop a lime in the fucker and drink cold. It's not a beer for like, sitting and contemplating the taste. It's about being refreshing.

I love me some expensive belgian beers, but give me a Corona with lime on a hot day and we're money.
>>
>>7791144
Chimay Blue is fantastic, imo.

I've just bought 8 bottles of mongozo, 4 coconut and 4 mango. If you're looking for what is basically a fruity beer with the strength of a shandy then I highly recommend it.

Michael Jackson was smart, indeed indian food needs hops, not just pisswater. Amager "no rice & curry" is pretty neat.
