Beer!!

[tjoe]

I noticed that a lot of strongmen seem to like their beer :beerbang:
So what do you guys prefer?

I like a few of the Sam Adams choices:
Summer Ale
Boston Lagar
Hefewiezen (my fav I think)
Winter Lagar
and a few others

Tried a few from UFO which I liked as well.
Amstel light
Guinness (OK and not as bad as everyone made it out to be)

My wife just got me some from Brooklyn Brewery (haven't tried em yet)

I don't really get drunk or anything like that but I do have 2 here and there... usually while watching the Red Sox or maybe with dinner.

How bout you??

a few years ago i competed in the snowman...one of the pros drank beer inbetween events. was more a fun comp than anything.

[SUMO]

I love Bass, but Sam Adams is definitely a good 2nd.
Oh, and I drink to get drunk. I have addiction problems. lol

i fixed that by downing a fifth of mezcal. passed out and woke up to fireants chewing on my feet

[GameofInches]

I don't drink too much, but when I do I usually stick with the basics. I have tried Sam Adams seasonal and Guiness once before and I didn't really like them. I drink Bud Light the most and sometimes Corona in the summer. My complaint with Corona is that sometimes it is good and the next time it might tast like cat piss. I would like to go some place that has a large selection I could taste in order to try some new kinds. Maybe I will get to that one of these days.

When it comes to cheap getting drunk beer, my beer of choice is Miller Lite

but, for quality beer I like

Goose Island Honkers Ale
Kilkenny, unfortently I havn't been able to find it since I left Okinawa

[tjoe]

Man! There are a lot of brews out there huh!?

Currently enjoying a Blue Moon, Honey Moon (their summer ale).

[robert da strongman]

i could go for an Old Style right now...

[AnabolLecter75]

When the money is flowing it's Sam Adams or Arrogant Bastard. If it's tight, Miller High Life :)

[kratos47]

i like a beer like once a month with some bbq. usually new castle:)

[ChunkyThunder]

i like a beer like once a month with some bbq. usually new castle:)

That's my favorite also. I also like Sam light and Amstel light a lot.

I only drink like 4-5 times a year though so I don't really experiment anymore I just stick with what I really like, which is those beers and a bottle of Jack Daniels

[Youngguns]

Sorry buy Guiness isn't beer.

Dark- Waterloo Dark
Light-MGD

Yep Newcastle is my top favorite of all time. Blue Moon is also pretty dang good.
I don't drink beer very often though. More of a gin/vodka n tonic guy...almost like drinking water ;P

[weightgain4000]

Stone's Imperial Russian Stout.

I love Shiner Bock. Made in Shiner Texas, its the best beer I have ever tasted. Its the reason Earth was spared from the deathstar! My getting drunk beer is Bud Light because why waste a good beer when any old beer will do :beerbang:

Paulaner is an excellent wheat beer from germany, and pretty easy to find. A bit pricey but well worth it. If you want to go all out and get the king of wheat beers, try Weihenstephaner, pretty hard to find and expensive, but so damn good!!! :beerbang:

I love me darks. As long as I can't see through the glass and it isn't over the top bitter, I'll drink it. Almost any Nut Brown Ale will do me just fine.

I would like to try those!

[HITstrongman]

[quote=tjoe;263346]I would like to try those!

Yeah, wheat ales are very tasty. They tend to have a lemon/orange/banana hint to them which goes very well with the wheat aftertaste.

[MichaelWayne]

We have a company out of Ohio called 'Great Lakes Brewery' (yeah, funny. You'd think it was a Michigan company), anyway they have a brew called the Edmund Fitzgerald. That would change your mind anyday. :D

[lilfella]

If you are ever on the west coast. Northern California has Lost Coast Brewery and North Coast Brewery both in beautiful locations and have amazing brews.

How bout you??

guiness is really nice if its poured right but if its poured crap it will taste crap

[lilfella]

oatmeal stout is a great weight gainer

[Little Bear]

haha oatmeal stout is ridiculous dude. It's pretty good, but here it's like 5 bucks a bottle.

My top beers are all mexican except for a couple.

Dos Equis Amber
Sol
Killian's Irish Red
Corona
Tecate
Dos Equis Lager
Yeungling
and of course any college student is gonna love some Natty Light haha


Other than that I'll always be up for anything if it's good. I had some "Ol' Chubb" one time and it's this beer from scotland, it was like motor oil.

[toddbz]

Yes they do!
Red Seal being one of my all time favorites.
Sacramento has really come up in the past few years for the local brew pubs also. if you ever get to Rubicon Brewing Co. I highly reccomend it.
Plenty nice for when it's over 100 degrees here. Plus after 2-3 of those I swear I sing much better...not that anyone requested me to ;)

Sam Adams varieties are typically my favorite, especially the ones you listed. I also like the Black Lager and Oktoberfest a lot.

[tjoe]

yep. I'll be enjoying a few Sams this weekend at my buddies lake house on the 4th. Tons O meat on the grill and some good times!

[robert da strongman]

Getting drunk beer- Coors or Busch tall boys
Getting fancy beer- Alexander Keith's, Sam Adams or Stella Artois (when its not skunky which is rare)

[Northman]

Octoberfest beer is pretty damn tasty =)

[tjoe]

Sam Adams just came out with "Coastal Wheat"

It is a spin off there Heffewiezen with a little lemon...

Joe Likes :)

[robert da strongman]

dammit is oktoberfest this weekend...
i have to pass. watching the weight for my next comp.

[homegrown]

I just got back from great american beerfest... WOW... talk about a good time.. Over 1200 beers or something like that. A good brewery is rouge.. Its in Ft worth.. But as for favorites i like boddingtons and for some reason PBR.. Call me crazy but i like it..

[toddbz]

I almost shed a tear. Then I cracked a beer, and the sneer turned to cheer.

[MichaelWayne]

Any Sam Adams/dark beer drinker HAS to try the new Imperial Stout. That shit will get ya good and buzzed. Just came out this year, so the best bet might be your local specialty store. They should more then likely have it. Its 9.2% by volume....yeah, its GOOOOOOOOD!

Thought I was going to get ripped off because it only comes in packs of four. Trust me, four gets the job done!

[tjoe]

I had one of the other Sams 4 paks... Imperial White maybe? Didn't care for it so much... but yeah, high % of alc by vol. Whoa.

[Ryan Bracewell]

yall are some fancy MFer's.....Bud Light all the way, and if im feeling tropical I will go with Bud Light Lime.

[robert da strongman]

I almost shed a tear. Then I cracked a beer, and the sneer turned to cheer.

drink a couple for me.
but know this....the evening of november 7th i will be full of beer!!

[ebfitness]

Sierra Nevada, Dogfish, Arrogant Bastard, are some of my favorites. But to be completely honest, if it's free, it's for me!

So speaking of Sierra Nevada. For the holidays they make one called Bigfoot Ale
http://www.sierranevada.com/beers/bigfoot.html

Serious knock your dick in the dirt. This is one you have then tell the in-laws what you really think about them

[G-Roy]

Just tried some new ones

Sam Adams Octoberfest- delicious but I developed a headache while drinking them that lasted an entire day. Not as strong as I expected, but very drinkable

Jack's Pumpkin Ale- good taste, a bit too much cinnamon I think and a bit on the watery side.

Troegs nut brown ale - pretty decent, like a strong new castle

saranac summer brew lemonade and lager - was a bit apprehensive at first, but it was a really great beer for some hot days at the beach. Not watery like the usual beach beer (corona, bud light lime etc), but not too thick or overpowering like a traditional lager. A bit too sweet but overall good.

I was once a hardcore Bud drinker.....until they became America's number one BELGIUM beer. Just can't brink myself to drink it anymore. Everytime I grab a bottle I think of bald eagles and Clysdales taking their own lives for this injustice.

[robert da strongman]

O-jOEAufDQ4

beer is good and stuff....

[StringerBell]

Duvel (belgian beer is king)

Sad indeed. Have a beer brother

[Densemode]

Wurstiener
