Honorary mention to Magic Hat #9 for more regular drinking. https://www.totalwine.com/beer/ale/p...t-9/p/17140126

That matcha beer looks real interesting. Want to try it. Only concerned about it keeping me up with the green tea.

Generally most Ciders, IPAs, and Ales. Skipping light beers (water)
The local Breweries here are great.

Dogfish Head 90 is probably the only IPA I like

Bells Two-Hearted IPA (?)

All great. The Space dust had tiny bubbles like champagne; The Fuller had real scotch taste & wasn't too sweet, and I forget what the Bells was like....

Probably one of the few IPA I dont like lol

Been on AllDayIPA recently, jumped off fruit/haze kick and now shooting for more piney. and 4.5% is really nice compared to most...not the best ever, but decent taste from a low price/low ABV. (I get a 15 pack here for $17)

Oh..that was my quote! Yeah I can't stand IPA's and have never understood the allure. The 90 minute is hoppy without being disgusting, some brown sugar notes....its enjoyable. But I will always grab a high alc Belgian 1st over anything else for the most part.

A woman asks a man - "do you drink beer?"

Man: Yeah.

Woman: How many beers a day?

Man: Usually about 3.

Woman: How much do you pay per beer?

Man: $5.00, including the tip.

Woman: And how long have you been drinking?

Man: About 20 years, I suppose.

Woman: So a beer costs $5 and you have 3 beers a day which puts your spending each month at $450. In one year, it would be approximately $5400 …correct?

Man: Correct.

Woman: If in 1 year you spend $5400, not accounting for inflation, the past 20 years puts your spending at $108,000, correct?

Man: Correct.

Woman: Do you know that if you didn't drink so much beer, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 20 years, you could have now bought a Ferrari?

Man: Do you drink beer?

Woman: No.

Man: What color is your Ferrari?

I served 13 months in Germany while in the US Army and acquired a taste for German beer - 25 cents a bottle at the EM Club. The beer bottle had porcelain flip tops with red rubber gaskets.

Anyway, we got quite a few chuckles when a new guy would start chugging German beer like Bud Light. Next thing you know, the dude is on the floor. Heh!

unluky · 05-17-2021, 02:05 PM

My favorite beer is Vodka.

I have a lot of German customers and always love to hear their first encounter with the "King of Beers" while here in the states. LMAO! The words "Wasser" and "Urin" are usually used multiple times in the telling. =)

It's still pretty cheap and good as ever. I've been stationed here for the last 36 months, it's been amazing.

Wow, 36 months!

I served 13 months in Germany; 8 months in Hanau (Francois Kaserne) and 5 months in Babenhausen. I thought I would be in Germany for 2.5 years, but I got orders for Vietnam. Good bye German beer!

This for me as well.

Although years ago when I lived in Seattle there was a beer called Mac and jack's African Amber. You could only get it on tap in Washington state. Now I see they have limited edition can releases but still doesn't look like I can get it in Boston. Wonder if it even tastes as good to me now all these years later....

Goes with anything since it's vodka, but I recommend ginger beer (and some lime). Gosling's diet ginger beer in particular since it's sugar-free.
