What's your favorite Beer?

[profdbrk]

I have a query for the IH Community.  Somewhere in America I had an HOPWIRED, an IPA from New Zealand.  I've looked everywhere and can't find it available but I was just wondering if anyone else has had one.  Maybe I'm romancin' here because it was just once.

In my jaded old man opinion not a lot of things are better since 1980 when the music died, but beer and denim are waaaaay better than they have ever been.  Beer and Iron Heart have put some shine on my jade.

As a daily drinker, Great Lakes' Commodore Perry is a mighty fine IPA.  My current favorite.

HopWired do some solid brews. We get them here in Norway from time to time. The whole distribution thing with craft beer is tricky though.

The brewery's named 8 Wired. They make some solid stuff.Their stout is rather phenomenal.

Blithering idiot mode engages at about 1400hrs today. Up until then I’m deep in lumbering dolt mode.

BBF 07/2017. 100% perfect, very nice beer. Definitely finishing the bottle!..

@Seul  great beer,  tripel karmeliet is one of my favourites,  but what's that bottle ? I only know the ones with different design.

Drinking a leffe right now. I really love Belgian beer, and that as a German…

This is one of my favorites. The brewery used to only have it in 750ml bottles, but they recently started selling it in 4 packs of 12oz bottles. That makes me happy.

[Giles]

Love the color of that…...

Cigar City Cafe Americano is one of my favorites. My son lives near the brewery,and whenever he comes to visit me or I go down there I make sure to get some.

^That's way cool to hear. Can't wait to try it!..

Some more random pics…

They have the Paragon at the wine monopoly down the road but the price is intimidating. Let me know how good it is before tomorrow

I've seen it for 16€ here, but bought for 12. The regular BBA barleywine of theirs is a favourite so…

How much is it there?.. Go on, give us a laugh...

€20

I’ve been trying (quite successfully) to limit buying beer in that price category, the only recent exception being Nøgne’s latest Dark Horizon release which I paid a whopping €25 for.

[Seul]

Ouch - yeah that's steep… I succesfully managed not to buy it til they went ahead and gave us a 15% discount... Malakas...

Haven’t posted here in a while. Been drinking vicariously through the rest of you. This beer is really delicious. Right amount of Cinnamon,hard to believe it’s 13%.
