Try oatmeal yeti. Or any form of yeti really. Great imperial stout. I'm gonna be cracking this guy open tonight. Excited to finally try the stuff. Obviously not my picture.

oooh we only get 2-month-old Dogfish IPAs where I am, I'd love to try that. I'll watch for yeti!

Pic related is one I'm really looking forward to. Releases pretty close to my birthday too

>>9359065
If youre Minnesota it should be on the shelves brah. I bought mine in burnsville. Bent paddle has the best coffee ale I've ever had btw.

>>9359076
am MN, you mean DSDB is on shelves or yeti is on shelves? I thought Double Shot came out in November

>>9359082
Yeti should be year round but I meant the world wide stout

>>9359093
ohhhh gotcha, I haven't seen world wide around me. Might need to do a trip to the cities, I don't have great selection here

Drinking Lowenbrau right now because its on sale.

Brewing a German ginger beer (a pale Marzen kind of thing with ginger instead of hops). Pic from last round - very similar to Smithwicks.

Is brown ale considered "dark beer"? What are some of your favorite brown ales? Favorite porters?

>>9359039
Just finished this and it was great. Less boozy than stouts I've had that were 10% lighter. Sweeter than I thought it'd be, like a rich dark chocolate bordering on milk. Some heat, but I honestly could have gulped it. Impressive.

Best stout I've had. It's got such an intense flavor compared to other stouts of had, maybe it's just my taste buds

>few years later
>local mexican diner has coronas
>order one with my burrito and quesadilla
>mfw the taste
Wtf americans? Does this even classify as beer?

>>9359741
I've had*

>>9359746
Corona is piss tier, also all the mainstream american beers, try Indio's or Bohemias if you want some decent Mexican Beer. Avoid Tecate at all cost.

>>9359772
I don't think i wanna try any mexicans beer after this desu

>>9359746
corona is one of those really garbage, overpriced beers like stella artois

>>9359741
Went to their brewery in Chicago a few months ago. That place was the tits.

>tfw german and dont understand that the best viena style beers are made by Pancho and his beaner buddys

Brewing a Westvleteren XII clone when the ingredients arrive; the recipe worked quite well last year - didn't taste the same as the real thing, but was closer than I expected, and very enjoyable after it aged a little. Colour, how the head laced the glass and nose were all very close indeed.

In the fridge I have 4 Pines pale ale at the moment, though that tends to be my default beer.

>>9359741
you got me to consider trying it this fall. their black ale/ipa was awesome.

>>9359776
You kinda ask for it when you saw it on that shitty movie.

>>9359746
What the fuck were you expecting from a cheap macro that comes in a clear bottle and is marginally less yellow than piss?

Tried this at the local bar's anniversary party. Really good stuff. In the background is also a bottle of Firestone Walker imperial stout that was also sampled.

I've got a Belgian Wit and Alt that I brewed a while back that I've had conditioning in the bottles that I might crack today. My neighbor made this New Glarus Spotted Cow clone that we tried side by side and it was virtually identical. I'm going to try to brew it this weekend.

>>9359724
Pretty sure they don't even make those Avery demon beers anymore. I found a few at my local liquor store hidden in the back shelves a few months ago and I bought them just as gifts to some autistic beer nerd I may eventually befriend down the road that'll appreciate it

Already had them myself. They aren't even that good tbqh, more of a novelty, but the scarcity makes it cool now

>>9359720
i agree with the post below you. i didn't enjoy it as much as i thought i would.

>>9360937
Yeah, they stopped making them a year ago or so. They really were kind of a novelty and not great. >>9359039 is a much better high ABV stout than Mephistopheles IMO. I never tried the rest, but I think there's a few old bottles of The Beast and Samael sitting at the back of the shelf at the store I go to.

What's wrong with stella?

The pic is too big to post, but anyway I just drank a bottle of duvel. And it's really good. The aroma is just perfect and the body is great too. Even at 8.5% you can't feel the alcohol.

The color of that beer in your glass does not look like bud light. I have a feeling you're failing the most basic redneck test and drinking a craft beer there, Stephon.

Green Flash West Coast IPA

>>9361529
BBA Exp Stout is great, yeah. But it's not a 17-18% beer, so not really relevant there.

>>9362357
West coast ipas suck

>>9362596
And world wide is shitty and needs alot of age to be worth a fuck.

>>9362635
Anger

>>9362096
It's a not very notable lager from a country that produce over a thousand varieties of beer from a population of 10,000,000, has a major city with a beer pipeline running beneath it, and produces some of the finest beers in the world.

>>9362635
That's just like, your opinion, man.

>>9362686
agreed. Stella is shite even compared to a bottom tier Belgian lager

Had one of pic related about 1 hour ago
It's an Imperial India Black Ale

incredible head formation and retention
Aroma of coffee + citrus taste, weird combination which puts me off most Black IPAS but this brand has managed to make it work reall well.

Drinking some average Pilsen now....

Any stouts from Evil Twin Brewing are worth checking out, especially Even More Jesus.

Old rasputin has a very strong flavor. I had it at a little cajun restaurant in dahlonega GA, went really well with a club sandwhich.

>>9363283
That beer has too much head, maybe you just poured it wrong.

>>9359228
I want to drink that

>>9363299
that's the last glass and yeah I just basically "threw" it there, still doesn't take it away from the fact that the beer has incredible head retention (the other glasses I drank were well poured).

Someone recommend me a patrician Heffweizen, all I've been drinking lately is blue moon

Not exactly what you're asking for, but Scheider Weisse Aventinus is pretty godly.

... My god damned kingdom to anyone who can get me this. The LCBO had a single bottle once upon a time. I ordered in a 24 the next day, and then it seems like they stopped doing business with Schloss Eggenberg. Ich verstehe es nicht.

>>9363527
It's Schneider not Scheider

anyway

>>9363454
Weihenstephaner Weiss
Franziskaner
Benediktiner
Edelweiss (from Austria, green bottle)

All of these are pretty good.

I had a bottle of this yesterday. It hits you fucking hard later on. I do love it though.

I have never drank beer before, how do I start?

>>9363527
