Sometimes I thirst for strong beer; I do not really like the taste of Barley Wine as much as I like the strength. It knocks me on my ass and I like it; I could not imagine drinking barley wine for refreshment purposes. EKU for instance, does not taste that great but I get a Viking of gnarl buzz off it. IPA is just down right disgusting to me with none of the extreme inebriation you get with barley wine. It is kind of like being friends with a chick; you have to listen to all the gossip and tale telling but no tang.

So what do you like for taste and not just to get your ass fucked up?

At the club, it is usually Franziskaner, Carlsberg or Magners. At home, it usally drink Blanche De Chambly, Paulaner Weissbier or Salavator and sometimes cheap Danish Pils.

No disrespect to the drink of your choice I just don't understand how someone could be refreshed by IPA or drink more then a couple pints of it.

Based on your previous rants, you won't like it. It's an Irish stout.

I have them with me in Lot 13 sometimes.

You owe me one don't you for taking an firestone of mine? You can repay me in a beamish. If it sucks ill just give it back to you. :pint:

I'm not the hoppy IPA lover...that's Haggis.

Like I said, I like the malt portery stouty brews. The St Peter's Old Style Porter is about the best thing I've ever tasted. Still, I like the taste of a hoppy beer every once in a while.

Not a Wheat beer fan at all. It's too...lively maybe? I like my brews a bit more refined (if not processed) than the unfiltered styles.

Magners is a cider, isn't it? A bit girly, no?

I don't owe a damn thing son!

I asked for a beer and you gave me one. I didn't know there was payback clause attached to it.

In spite of that, I'll give you a Beamish, but I'm attaching the stipulation that you finish it. There's no give-backs here.

We should be even then. :cheers:

amen. Newcastle has chemicals and guiness lacks body. I'd rather have beamish than guiness.

This is the nth time that you've claimed that Newcastle has chemicals.

Sources?

I don't even see it on Beer Myths

The Franziskaner is really good... like a Heif should taste unlike their american counterparts (wheat beer) Paulaner is an excellent choice no matter the beer I think... weisbier, salvator (my personal favorite Paulaner), etc. I'm not sure I have an all time favorite style of beer ... it's more of a what sort of beer I'm in the mood for but more often than not it tends to be a porter with IPA's a close second and then ofcoarse when dealing with a supermarket lacking in selection GUINNESS! :pint:

I never found a tampon in a Magners pitcher before, if that is what you are asking.

I've never really had a decent Porter, maybe because I just go the extra mile and drink stout and that is a rare occasion. My beer tasting days are over as I know it. I'm already stuck in my ways but there are rarities where I but something that is on sale or I see an exotic beer that I have always wanted to try.

Here are a few black heros of mine...

This one's been on my list of stouts to try for awhile but for some reason haven't yet. Normally I find the taste of stouts just a bit too strong but will occasionally venture into stout land.

I'ma have to look for this one... label alone looks interesting HAHA

Dragonhead is hard to find, but it is worth it.

I like the Hobgoblin, too.

Why did you have to post a Hobgoblin picture? You know that is one of my favorite beers and you know they don't EVER have it in Blythe.

The Bevmo down the street has it. Next time you are in town, pick up a shitload and bring it back.
