Samuel Adams Imperial Stout
Guiness
Newcastle
Negra Modelo (Best beer brewed in Mexico EVER!)

But never forget Jameson Irish Whiskey!

You can also almost always find Killians in my fridge, too.

My absolute favorite beer is Shock Top (wheat beer), but I love Red Stripe whenever it's available on tap.

I just picked up a six pack of that to try it out not even an hour ago. I'm about a beer and a half in and I can see why you like the shock top. I don't think it's top of my favorites list but it is a delightful ale.

Prefer Bushmills over Jameson by quite a lot.
Negra Modelo IS good.... best? Hmmmmm not willing to go that far, lol.

Unfortunately< something in ShockTop (sulfates perhaps?) triggers a sever allergic reaction. The flavor was pleasant.. the closed windpipe however, was not.

I have to say I love my town for this reason, we have some of the best breweries here.

My favorite has to be most of the Bayern beers, like the Dragons Breath that is a a dark amber that tastes closer to an ale. In fact I am drinking one right now :rolleyes:

There are a few from the Kettlehouse I like too, like Cold Smoke, the kind of beer you can have for dinner (just the beer...), got knocked on my *** by that brew a time or too

Never did gain a taste for Becks. Becks Dark on the other hand is pretty darn good.

Conversely some of the WORST big name branded beers I have ever had were:

Budweiser (duh!)
Corona (Most inconsistent beer ever)
Heinekin (tastes like Heiny, so it is well named!)
Yuengling (Just got imported to Ohio, though I had known about it for years...... I do not get what people go wild about this beer for!)
Sam Adams Boston Lager (Life's too short for bitter beer!)

Then again, I tend to find almost ALL big name American beers lacking.
We have some real good microbrews, and some like Sam Adams have a few decent beer s(Cherry Wheat), but all in all not really. The best thing Budweiser ever made (IMO) was Michelob Dark, which they seemed to have discontinued long ago.

I have had a few decent commercial HArd Ciders though. (Angry Orchard and HardCore Cider Dry). I wonder if there are some nice European Ciders to be found?

Thank god no corona in "my top 5" list.

My favourite "important" beer has to be Leffe Vieille Cuvee. I also love Negra Modello, and the dos equis amber someone has mentioned.
On the other side, I am not a huge fan on becks, and I hate carling.

90% of the people in the Netherlands think that Heineken is reprocessed horse pee.

Cannot be. You know how many horses would be needed to pee that much? Humans, on the other side...

Hm, I'm not that much into beer, as it would seem appropiate for someone coming from Germany, Bavaria.
But I do enjoy one or another bottle from time to time.

I prefer "Unertl Weißbier" (I guess it is called wheat beer in america, "Unertl" is the name of the brewery). It is from a local brewery near my place, but it is sold throughout south-germany I guess.
It tastes almost a bit sweet, which I like. I really don't like Pils and beers like Beck's for their bitter taste.

I also like "1543" from the brewery Flötzinger. It is also a Weißbier.

If you really want to have a bad hangover, just take a Maß (I don't know the word here, simply beer mug perhaps?), fill in a bottle (0,5 ltr) of wheat beer, half a liter of coca cola and then add a schnapps glas of cherry brandy (a liquer made of cherrys) to it (or more, if you want it reeeeally sweet).
If you don't like it that sweet, you can use Cognac instead, if I remember correctly.

It is called "Goaß'n Maß" in Bavaria. Sweet and tasty and if you drink to much, you have some bad headache and an upset stomach the next day. :D
But I like it and it was the only thing I ever drank from a Maß without setting the mug back or taking a breath inbetween... won me another Goaß'n Maß! :) :wacko:

Real Ale

Favourite real ale < stupid term. Would have to be Young's Bitter, that is one amazing ale, golden in colour with one of the best hopped aromas and after-tastes.

http://www.youngsbee...gfx/advert5.jpg

Second would be Frog Island Best Bitter

Thirdly Adnam's Southwold Bitter, nice beer with a fruity taste.

Mild

Would have to go for Bank's Mild

Stout

Sam Smiths and Guinness, though Guinness has transcended and become it's own beer haha.

Lager

Peroni Nastro Azzuro is a nice drink.

Carlsberg and Carling should be avoided at all cost. Beware of anything served extra cold as that's just to mask how awful it tastes.
