A thread about BEER - how can you resist?

Well, after hearing Lavan mention in a previous post that all us Canadians do is watch hockey and drink beer(it\'s true ... at least during playoff season).  

I would have made this a poll, but there are way more than 10, and I\'m not sure if what we drink in Canada is the same as in the US (popular brands, Molson, Coors, etc), and I\'m sure it\'s not the same as overseas.  I decided to ask:  

What brands of beer do ya\'ll drink?

Moosehead - ahhh, Canada\'s oldest independant brewery...  Pretty much all I drink, 24 outta 25 times... A smooth tasting lager, with hardly any aftertaste at all....

Kokanee - A slightly cheaper beer, from BC, not bad, stronger flavor, little bitter aftertaste.

I\'m a Micro beer Nut, I\'m always looking for a good Micro Brew


but my favorites are (drum roll please)

Sammy Smith\'s : Nut Brown Ale

Guinness

Fosters (Oil Can, for waiting in line before the show)

Labatt\'s Blue

Damn!  I forgot Guiness!  I guess I was still in "stay at home with friends drinking storebought beer for the playoffs" mode, rather than "goto pubs, where Moosehead/Kokanee isn\'t always available" mode.  Shucks.

Funny you should mention that, because I got a Samuel Smith t-shirt from a pub when I was in London, and I happened to wear it today.  Sam Smith is good, but I think it doesn\'t travel well across the Atlantic in those clear glass bottles.

I prefer real beer; in other words German beer.  I like

Bitburger (http://www.bit-koeln.de/)

Warsteiner  (http://www.warsteiner.de/)

Jever (http://www.jever.de/)  Ah yes Jever is still virtually impossible to find in North America, but I have good memories of it.

Also Valentins and Eichbaum (don\'t ask).  Of American Beer I usually just buy Anchor Steam or one of the few Weizen Biers you can.  I can never get tired of that.

I\'m so glad I love beer.  Like wouldn\'t be the same without it.

The hell it don\'t. Its the nectar of the Gods, I\'m sure they keep the bottles out of the light. Thats the only time you get into trouble with clear bottle beer, and all Sammy Smith beers are dark which doesn\'t go skunky like a regular blonde beer


Nut Brown Ale is to die for, I love them

palm is by far the best beer ever made, it\'s a belgian made beer and it tastes so good, you have no idea, in fact it shouldn\'t be called beer, it\'s in a league of it\'s own.

carling
stella artois
grosch
Becks
bud
kronemberg ( not sure if thats spelt right)
carlsberg
fosters ( only if theres nothing else)
or any type of beer i can get my hands on, there are others but its making me thirsty just writing about it:D

I remember a thread like this a while ago.... it was cool.

I drink Carlsberg or Tuborg.

I\'m always getting different brands. Lately I\'ve really gotten into Amstel Light

For the "older" people, remember the TV commercial..."99 calories never tasted so imported, until they-imported Amstel Light"

I drink Coors Light.  It\'s cheap and it tastes pretty good.  The best part is the next morning you won\'t have the sh**s or puke.

ahhh

i love Guiness

i also drink:

Corona = ai carumba!
Rolling Rock = this is my ale
Tequiza = nothing like tequila and beer mixed together
King Cobra = yes this was in my thuggish times
Old E = htis was also in my thuggish times
Zima Citrus = when im in a mellow mood

and i have to bust out my personak favorite:

Cocaine shooters = vodka and Red Bull, it gives you wings aha!
