What's your favorite Beer?

[Jett129]

Thank you very much for the explanation,but I have zero idea,as to what “Funk” translates to in relation to taste in beer. If you were talking drums/music I got you.

It’s basically the effect caused by different bacteria that either show up naturally under the brewing process or are added for taste. I think the term in beer description comes from another American colloquial use of the word. If you bought a pair of used jeans on the forum and when you got them they smelt funky, then you’d wash them, right? Beer funk is similar but appreciated in the same way as the funk of a good, ripe camembert is appreciated by cheese lovers. Here’s a little overview…

Still waiting for someone to come out with a beer that references Aliens. "Game over, man, game over!" That would be so badass. It could be a Xeno acid milkshake ipa or a Nuke it from orbit ale. Or better yet, someone could make a spoof beer of the Weyland-Yutani Aspen Beer that they drank in the original Alien film.

Damn, neph- that one is totally up my alley.

First German IPA. It has no sense of humour. Maybe because it's only 13 days old?..

It was very good and at 6% necking 750ml is not a problem. Not too expensive either.

This on the other hand is prices and 11% abv. Imply stout from 50/50 brewed with honey and BA’ed in calvados barrels. Pretty spectacular.

It wasn’t cheap but it’s not as much as I understand they’re going for outside of Norway. The guy at the monopoly said that bottles in the US and in private shops in Europe are going for a lot more than the 28€ I paid for 650ml. For once, state controlled beer buying paid off.

Only just noticed the etching on the bottom of the glass. Cool detail [emoji108]

And I should add that it’s 10:30am and I’m drinking a beer. The marshmallow double ipa couldn’t wait
