Can you get me KBS when it comes out?
The best place to get a beer: The Toronado in San Francisco’s Haight District.
Alaskan amber is awesome it just sucks I can’t find any where I’m at. Also Sam Adams October fest
American lager is SWILL.
Watery, flavourless nonsense.

Yuengling is also the largest American owned brewery. The big 3 have sold out.
Miller - South African
Budweiser - Belgian
Coors - Canadian

That is a bold statement.
After every beer posted in here you statement is that ALL beer made in America is watery, flavourless nonsense.
You personally have tasted every beer that has been posted in this thread?
I will give you the Buds, Coors, Miller’s of the world are what you stated, no argument there.
Yuengling porter is my go-to commercial beer because I don’t feel like shelling out $10-11 for a six pack of Guinness. Sierra-Nevada’s porter is hardly any better and they are known for being a real good brewery.
That being said… the more beers I try the more I tend to stick to porters and stouts. I LOVE one of my home-brewed dry stouts. So tasty!
I recently tried Sam Adam’s dunkelweizen and I thought it was really good. I haven’t tried any other interpretations of the style but I liked this one a lot.

Sorry that’s a load of crap.
I’m more into IPA’s and stouts. Oh and as of late, American wild ales and belgium sours like Flemmish and Flanders red ales.
I’m not a big fan of porters but this right here IMO is exceptional!

The great pumpkin is probably their best offering. If you’re into pumpking beers I would try to get a hold of Avery’s Rumpkin, it’s a pumpkin ale aged in rum barrels and comes in at an insane 15 -17 percent abv.[/quote]
Great choice.
Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale and McAuslan Pumpkin are my two favourites.
Got my hands on a Southern Tier Pumking last year and was literally the most disgusting beer I’ve ever tried anywhere, and I usually like strange beers.

I’m not going to read the rest of this thread, so maybe someone else already said your stoopid, but you’re stoopid.
The United States of America is THE BEST beer brewing Nation in the world. Period. End of discussion.
We have more breweries than all of Europe combined. The Craft Beer Revolution that began 20 years ago with Sam Adams and Anchor has exploded. German brewers now look to us for help.
Old Dominion and Starr Brewing are two local Virginia breweries. You should be able to find them in any liquor store. If not, take a pilgrimage to their actual breweries. If you do this, I may look at you with something less than disdain.
Someone asked about Farmhouse Ales. Jolly Pumpkin Bam Biere is one of the best.
I was actually surprised to see the Pumpkin emphasis for Jolly Pumpkin. To my knowledge they’re more into making Belgian ales.

Anyone interested in beer would do well to check out the Beer Advocate. http://beeradvocate.com/ The website is pretty awesome and you can get a subscription to the print version for like 20 bucks.

I can’t stand pumpkin beers. It’s like amateur hour. I try a bunch of new ones every year, but they all come out tasting like nutmeg and coriander without any real beer taste to balance…there’s a restaurant near me that’s having a big pumpkin beer unveiling so I’ll check them out there this year and report back.
VT you should check out any book written by Michael Jackson. This is a good one to start with: http://www.amazon.com/The-Beer-Book-DK-Publishing/dp/0756639824/ref=pd_sim_b_5
had a Blue Moon Caramel Apple Spiced Ale yesterday. Decent, not great, not terrible. Enjoyed it for what it was.
