look im not some gormet expert or anything but here are a few of my favorites here in perth western australia

Dry Dock i think its brewed in perth its just a super standard beer that just satisfies me. i love sharing a carton of this with my mate

Carlton fusion black this is a new beer thats come uot and its a bit of a marketing scheme i think but w/e i really enjoy it. its a "citris" beer w/e that means. taste kind of like pepsi its different.

Cold another super standard beer i will never get sick of i love the great quality for such a cheap price

you can probably tell i love cheap pale ale beers and thats probably because i cant afford anything else hahaha cheers broskis keep up the good work!

Really Cold? It doesn't taste like much

On a related not: WHY DOES CALTON COST MORE THAN GROLSCH?
RAAAAAAAAAWR

Fucking ridiculous. Even VB is costing the same if not more than lagers. Maybe I should just blame the government

Eventhough Corona's may be extremely common (In Australia at least), it is my favourite beer on a regular basis, and if I'm in a restaraunt, then a Corona with lime is what I prefer.

As for my favourite "special" beer, I would have to say Well's Banana Bread Beer, it is amazing and from memory, it is around $7 AUS for a 500ml bottle, well worth it tho.

EDIT: After looking at this picture again, I really want to drive down to Dan Murphies and grab a couple bottles of this beer

this is the best beer I've ever had. it literally tastes just like having a slice of delicious pumpkin pie with whipped cream. unfortunately all the stores in Atlanta are out of it, and I have to wait until next year to have it again

What's a good recommendation for a mainstream beer? By that I mean one that is likely to be available in almost any bar or beer store.


Hahns Super Dry, Tooheys Extra Dry, Carlton Dry, are all examples of common beers in Australian Pubs.

Has anyone ever tried Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout?
[image loading]

I saw it at a local liquor store and was thinking of picking up a case next week-end. I haven't really had a lot of experience with stouts though, so I was wondering if anyone else had tried it before, and what they thought of it.

My experience has been pretty much limited to the occasional Guinness, and last week I got a case of Aphrodisiaque, from the Quebec brewing company Dieu du Ciel.
[image loading]

I thought it was pretty good. Very smooth, with malt and vanilla flavour, and then a nice after-taste of dark chocolate. I'd recommend it, though it's a little expensive (for me anyways) at 20$ (CAD) for 6 bottles.

I've had Old Rasputin, it's pretty good, but its not the best RIS I have ever had (translation: I would suggest getting a bottle or two, not a whole case). Also, if your experience with stouts is limited to Guinness, you should probably try some more stouts (Guinness is a pretty watery stout) before investing in a whole case of any hardcore RIS.

I am currently drinking Fuller's Vintage Ale (2011 vintage, not really in a position to cellar), and it's quite tasty (sweet, fruity, and malty). The only issue with it is the alcohol is a bit obvious, but that would have been fixed by aging. I would definitely recommend it, especially if you can age it for a year or two.

I have taken a liking to wheat beers recently (blue moon and various hefeweizens I have tried)

Does anyone have any suggestions for quality Weißbier I should be on the lookout for? I live in the bay area and dont really know any places that would have a particularly good selection from obscure breweries...so I probably wont be able to find much that isn't from bigger breweries.

Wow that stuff looks really cool and good. Obviously appearances can be deceiving and don't mean too much though. The head looks crazy, and I'm pretty sure I'm a fan of rather high carbonation — fine carbonation (as opposed to coarse) if that makes any sense.

that i have to strongly disagree with

<3 our purity law and much of what gets posted here i would hardly consider beer. beer should taste like beer and not like chocolate,coffee,pie or whatever. yeah yeah surprise, the german guy is a beer elitist ~~

Well in Romania beer and brewing was introduced in Transylvania by the German colonists (saxons). In Romania you don't pay + taxes for beer and wine as its considered "foodstuff".

Nowadays most of our beers are produced by german companies like Heineken or SabMiller.

Most importnat beers: Urssus, Ciuc, Timisoreana, Bergenbier but for example my favourite beer is the Harghita.

As about not Romanian beers, my favourite is Paulaner from Germany afaik

So actually I'm a little embarassed to post this :-), because I am definately loveling this "Indian" beer I found here in England:

[image loading]

Our "Reinheitsgebot" (german law defining the purity a beer must have) will not approve of this. But hey! It those taste great

Edit:

Weizen- or Weißbier = wheat beer (apparently?)


Yes it's wheat beer, but it's commonly called Hefeweizen here as well.


A cold bottle of Cobra with a good, hot curry is an unbeatable combination.

Becks Vier - Cheap and never get board of the taste.
King Fisher - Only on draft.
Tusker - Kenyas finest.
Pilsner - Feel like splashing out.

Though i tend to find myself sitting down and drinking a nice whiskey if want to appreciate a drink. Beer is more of a social thing.

Can someone explain to me what there is to appreciate when drinking beer? I don't drink beer at all, whenever I do, it tastes terrible, like really bad cough syrup.

I'm not asking with the intent of putting down beer (If I did, I'd be severely outnumbered), what I mean to ask is when I drink beer or try it, what kind of taste am I to expect? I don't like drinking to get drunk, I like drinking for the taste and potential feeling. However, I can only have maybe a glass before my mouth feels bland and maybe I'm just expecting beer the wrong way.

I drink a lot of soda and I love the strong taste and sugary feeling, will I just not like beer or should I just keep drinking until I eventually get comfortable with it. There are so many beers, so I don't even know which one to settle with (I don't even know that much about beers). Someone told me it's an acquired taste, so maybe that's it. I'm not a white wine guy nor heavy alcohol, I like red deep wine with a strong taste.

Thanks!

P.S: If it's any help, I'm in Canada, so suggest beers in Quebec/Canada.

Edit: If my post comes off condescending or poorly worded, please let me know and I'll fix it. I was trying to give an accurate portrayal of what I don't like and how it makes me feel to maybe give you guys a clue to tell me if this normal at the beginning or something that just outright tells me I'm not a beer guy

Your first problem is that you are in North America. Your beer sucks arse. It is chock full of preservatives and brewed poorly.

Go to Germany or Denmark if you want something tasty.

O i appreciate beer very much especially since im not 21 yet lol. All the kids these days drink keystone and bud light personally I think it tastes like piss. For me all i need is a nice cold 6pack of becks. Also i have to say when i went to Italy, i was in love with their beer... It had so much taste and getting pint's was so beautiful. I cant compare to other country's yet.. but for sure Europe is the place to go for beer!! : )

Belgium definitely deserves to be named amongst those countries. I'd say the Czech Republic earns their value in pilsner too!

I finally got my hands on Delirium Nocturnum. I like it, quite a bit.Bought some Franziskaner Hefe-Weisse Dunkel along with it. Yummy.
