Beer is great. I like to try some of the local brews around me. The ones I like around Maryland are Clipper City (golden ale, and their heavy seas brands which are 8%+ beers). I also had a beer I liked when I visited Maine (Shipyard Pumpkin Head it tasted like pumpkin pie).

Shiner Bock is my go to beer, but when I'm living large, it's Duvel. Course most of the time I'm a Scotch man, drinking The Macallan 12 or 16, and I've also been known to buy a bottle of Bushmills single malt 16 as that is the finest Irish whiskey ever made.

Beer, and I mean good beer, is one of man's greatest achievements.

Drew, you mentioned the Brooklyn Chocolate Stout. I love that stuff. Every time I go to NYC we hit up the brewery. Last time I was there we ended up carrying home like 4 cases of the stuff on the subway.

McEwans Scotch Ale and also their IPA are probably my 2 favorites right now. I also like Boddingtons Pub Ale.

I wish I lived in the Northeast again because there are so many microbrews up there. I just don't see them down here.

I've fallen in love with Dogfish Head Indian Brown Ale. Too bad I can't get it here in MS.

I have Miller lite and a medium bodied, brown lager (homebrew) on draft right now. I have a German Pils/rye ale kegged and a light lager aging.


Hmmm.. Beer......

Yep MS sucks when it comes to big beers or microbrews. Fortunately, I live close enough to TN and AR to make a beer run.

I did pick up some Sam Adams Cream Stout at Kroger(in MS). Pretty damn good stuff, look for it.

Tyler, miller lite, really, so a lawyer and a piss-water drinker, man, I don't know if I can interact on the same board as you anymore Don't try to act like the homebrewing saves you either.

I'm having a belgian beer tasting and cigar night tonight, so lots of great varieties to be tried. Feel bad for Chris and Wox, in NYC we get all the great microbrew selections.

I landed a bottle of St. Bernardus Abt 12 60th Anniversary Special Edition. That is gonna be good. I also landed a bottle of Stone XI.

I think I'm gonna ring in the New Year with the St. Bernardus.

Yep it sucks, MS is beer hell. Nothing above 5% is legal here. Linky

I'm always in the mood for a good stout!

Another beer that i'm quite fond of, is called Warsteiner. Simply a great beer... (kinda reminds me of the CAO Sopranos cigar, just a real enjoyable experiance) YMMV

If you haven't gotten a chance to try it yet give Samuel Adams Black Lager a chance. I tried this last night and loved it. Full flavor, nice and smooth, and very complex. It came in a variety pack with Honey Porter and Irish Red as well. The Irish Red was alright but a little bitter to me though. Jury is still out on the Honey Porter.

I usually drink MGD or heineken at home and mickeys when im out and about

a few months ago my cousin told me about "kobonas" its actually pretty good and i make em once or twice a week

basically its king kobra malt liquor with salt and lime or lemon added like you would with a corona, hence the term "kobona"

Any recipe that starts with malt liquor will not end well...

Clearly.

Currently lol-ing out loud here. Shiftkey Brewery. That's good guys.

[FightingFish]

Oh dude! There's a ShiftKey in my state's capital. It's AWESOME!

I enjoyed some Brooklyn Local 1 in my new beer glass.

[CoventryCat86]

I had a Heineken out of a can last Saturday.
