Just don't become one of those beer hipsters who only drink beer from local breweries or beer brewed by some stupid monks. Here are some suggestions that are good for anyone. + Show Spoiler + Yes, I really mean anyone Stella Artois Pilsner Urquell Liberty Ale | ||

They, especially the Urquell, are JUST like water and taste of close to nothing. But they are good suggestions for people just starting to drink beer or for a warm summerday. | ||

Some people have a tendency to start flaming once you bring up something fairly mainstream. All of the beers I mentioned have excellent taste while at the same time being easy to drink. They certainly do not taste like water. Pilsner Urquell has won the price as the best beer in the world I think. | ||

Those beers aren't good for anyone. They are good beers to start out with when you want to get into drinking beer, and for a very hot summerday to quench a thirst. But to claim that they have a rich taste and are great for anyone is outright wrong - and it is a very common objection towards the beers you mentioned, that they simply taste too watery. EDIT: Also, how much do you actually know about beers? I have a feeling we are discussing at 2 different levels here. Pilsner Urquell has won the price as the best PILSNER - and that was some time ago. Pilsner Urquell hasn't won best beer, the difference is huge, I don't even know how you could make this mistake? Also the best beer in the world is the Weihenstephaner Vitus (according to http://www.worldbeerawards.com/2011/) - but the relevans of those sort of awards are rather miniscule as everyone differ in taste... | ||

You are soooo wrong in everything you say. Typical beer hipster statements. Let other people try them so they can get an opinion on their own. edit: and since the OP asked for a "beer to like" , isn't it better to start off with beers that are easy to drink ? It is so typical that some people start tipping about their "fancy" beers they have acquired a taste for after years of drinking beer. If you say that my beers taste watery I might object and say that your beers taste like a loaf of break soaked up in carbonated water. Then we would both be equally wrong. | ||

Even though it might not be the same as the ones in a store, you can get a sense of which kind of beer you prefer. I found some really good beers that way. | ||

The difference between you and me is that you are the one making the blanket statements and the ad hominems. Sucks for you that I am at this moment drinking a Tuborg pilsner whilst watching QPR vs Man City - but so much for me being a beer hipster... But at least you are getting on track now - there isn't a beer that is good for EVERYONE (which was the statement I objected against), so props to you for that. | ||

Shiner - Bock, Hefeweizen, Golden, their seasonal stuff Flying Dog - Raging Bitch, Snake Dog, a handful of others Wild Blue + Show Spoiler + tastes like blueberry soda but its 8%abv + Show Spoiler + I call it rape beer Bells is alright I had a roommate who was really into it. If you live right near a brewery I advise going because beer is better fresher These other couple are drinkable in the strictest sense of the word, but they are the best swills you can drink if you are short on cash imo.

I used to go to Denmark and buy some Tuborg when I lived in Malmö. I'm also watching that game But how did I make any blanket statements? I picked a good lager , a good pils and a good ale. I formulated myself in the way I did because I wanted to point out that there are mainstream beers that are very good. It is a natural way to start enjoying beer . A lot of people in this thread makes it over complicated by suggesting beers that are quite hard to drink and enjoy for a beginner. You have to acquire a taste for those I think. My statements were not to be taken too literary | ||

Personally I like lager. Light, refreshing and easy to drink a lot of. There are some beers out there that I don't understand how people drink. So its defiantly a to each his own type thing. | ||
