What's your favorite Beer?

Mixed too many brews last night. Started at Arcadia with Big Dick's Old Ale and Cereal Killer, moved to the Cricket Club where it was Founder's Breakfast Stout, and finally some Bell's Oberon at a little hole in the wall. Super hung over, but such a great time.

Had the Oberon and pretty sure the Founders,  but the Cereal Killer sounds interesting.

What amazes me is the price of beer in PA. My brother was living in Pittsburgh, and the beer was almost double what it is in Missouri.

[jdl1279]

Both the brews at Arcadia were really good. Unfortunately I decided Oberon was a good fashion choice as well as a drink, as I emptied half a glass on my 25s and now need to wash.

Interesting info on Pa, is it alcohol taxes that push so high? Dogfish Head is produced there, which is never cheap, but not much worse here than some Founders, Arcadia, or Dark Horse, which are local.

Pretty sweet and… pretty sweet.

Yeah - this is unbelievable beer… It's 8% though and I have to work tomorrow so I'm cheating...  :-\ I'd pour the leftover 20 cls in the sink but I just can't...

This is so good that I can't believe it's German.

[Seul]

It's very serious though… And probably top 5, maybe top 3 material for me...

[Megatron1505]

It is an extremely serious beer, and I'd be hard pushed to find 5 better. I'm drinking the numero uno of Trappiste beers on Friday night when I have time to give it my full attention, will report back.

Seeing as how you like Berny and R10, you'll absolutely love the Westy…

Oh: and in its category, the Weizen-Eisbock would definitely be a top 3 beer... Tbh, I'd have issues trying to figure out what category it'd supposed to fit in... "A complete, 4-course meal"...

After the beating my liver took Saturday night, I am cautiously re-approaching the beast…

Gave up beer for Lent, but this technically isn't beer.

Haven't tried that one although I've had other Crispin ciders. Have you tried the Samuel Smith organic cider? It's my favorite summer "beer".

[seawolf]

jdl - is that Oberon from this year?!  I haven't seen any yet!

[jdl1279]

Yep, hit here about a week ago, but I'm 20 minutes from Bell's front door. KBS drops at my local Sunday April 6th at noon. Apparently Founders pushed back to make sure it hits all at once, so every retailer that will have it should be dropping same time or face not getting another ticket for next batch. I shall be in line early.

Haven't tried the Samuel Smith, but I love about all of their beers. Can you find it locally?

[Cutlasshound]

I really like the Sam smith pubs too. There is one by the river in Kingston. My brother had his wedding reception there… I got gloriously annihilated!

I've had their Taddy Porter and wasn't too impressed with it. I haven't tried anything else due to disappointment after being sold on it by a friend

Yeah, I get it all the time at Whole Foods, I'm sure other places have it as well.
