Ive had some great brews from home brewers and pubs that brew there own to!

I love beer

[Big TULE]

Australian beer... No not Fosters (australian for crap beer). Victoria Bitter, Thooheys new and old. To bad it is very difficult to get here in the states.

[The Fishing Geek]

Weinhard's Root Beer.

Rogue Brutal Bitter has always been one of my favorites. But you gotta make sure your drinking a fresh batch. Right now Deshutes has a Cinder Cone Red that is quite delicious. I only drink our Oregon microbrews as they are the best beers in the world

Been to all of the breweries and brewpubs. Rogue and Deshutes are my favorite brewers. With Full Sail right behind. There are so many good beers available that it is hard to name them all. And sometimes different batches vary.

What I want to find is a good draft Ginger Beer. I make my own ginger ale but I have not been able to put together that perfect recipe. Any recipes to share?

Top Dog IPA, Hawthorne's Best Bitter are my favorites.

Cold Bud?????? What's next, Coors?? If you want a drinka water go get a drinka water!!

[sinker]

let's not forget Crown either

[brshooter]

Favorites lately have been
1. Fat Tire
2. Scuttlebutt Ale (whenever I get near Everett, WA)
3. Full Sale Amber

[Silver Hilton]

I personally love Full Sail Amber above all others. However, it has a nasty after effect that causes my wife to ban it from the house. Something about paint peeling from the walls. :tongue: Red Hook ESB is a strong second, along with Alaskan Amber.

In general, I prefer microbrew bitters and pale ales, which any brewer knows are virtually the same thing. I also like a good alt, and a good medium lager.

On raft trips in the backwoods, Miller Genuine Draft in cans is our beer of choice. Not because I think it is a particularly tasty brew, but there is traditiona in my group around it. The black and gold can has a special place in our hearts.

Vodka, komrade.
But if it's gotta be beer, then make it Corona.
(but hold the lime- yick!)

[Silver Hilton]

Boedy,

I haven't had the mind reading Red Hook. What does it tell you?

[Jettin' Fool]

[Cool Texan]

My favorite 2 beers:


1) Cold
2) Free


Oh yeah, NO on 28!! :tongue:

Geek,
That's good but when you grow up what will you drink :grin:

I am not a big beer drinker but I always enjoy whatever is in Nerta's fridg

[Go Harley]

I couldn't give a particular brewery, but rather, I have favorite styles. SWMBO and I are into the darker beers. Her mantra, "If you can see through it, it ain't worth drinking."

I homebrew mostly stouts and porters, and usually have three 5-gallon kegs on tap at home. I occasionally do a bitter or pale (they are pretty close, Silver Hilton), and one nice malty alt once a year. Hard to find a genuine alt here in the states, however, Alaskan Amber is relatively close.

I will agree that Oregon has some mighty fine breweries, but don't sell Washington short. I will concede, however, that Oregon usually has a few more medals coming out of the Great American Beer Festival each year, notably Rogue, some pizza place in Portland (the name escapes me), and the Pelican on the coast.

The thing that amazes me is to be in a pub with 20 or so tap handles from local brewers and see some guy come in and order a BudMillerCoors. Why limit yourself? I rarely drink the same beer twice in a row because there is far too many to choose from. Life is too short to drink the same beer over and over.

What I'd really like to see is more cask conditioned ale being served in America. That, to me, is the absolute best the ale world has to offer.

I could go on, but that's my 2¢ worth.

[Silver Hilton]

Harley, I used to love Widmer Alt, which you can't get up here. Back in the days when I brewed, Alt's were one of my faves. Don't brew anymore - not enough time.

[Stz ll]

Corona or Tecate.

[lightline]

Iv'e had three beers in my fridge for around four years I don't know where they even came from. If they put diet coke in a beer can I would drink it.

Diet pop will kill you :depressed:

DESCHUTES BREWERY JUBELALE
DESCHUTES BREWERY CINDER RED


IF YOU HAVENT TRYIED IT YOUR MISSING OUT

TWO OF THESE AND YOU ARE READY TO

[sinker]

STICK IT,
24oz of Crown and you are ready to

Why mess with the filling beer, lets hurry up and get to the point here!!! :grin: :grin:

sinker 24oz and I'm on the floor several times

[Miss B Haven]

Terminator Nitro! :grin:

Second favorite beer is Miss B's captain's beer. She buys much better beer than Nerta does

[GutZ]

Henry's Ale - I drink about a keg a month at my favorite little Pub. "The Green Death" is what many of Bud swilling friends call it.

[ampersat]

i'd have to say that deschutes' mirror pond is one of my favorites. i like it even more on cask at the twilight room in north portland. sometimes i wish i still lived up in that neck of the woods. i haven't found anyone else who carries it on cask.

after that, it's more about which brewer's beer is on sale this week, in order of preference:
deschutes
bridgeport
firehouse (they're a new kid on the block. i really like their porter and ipa. don't really care for hefeweizen to begin with and i can't remember what their other one is.)

also, a lot of it has to do with time of year. it's hard to crack open a stout and enjoy it when it's 85 degrees and sunny out and you've just finished mowing the yard. ipa's in the winter time are alright but that time of year i'd rather grab a dark porter.

i love the rogue dead guy ale when they have it on sale. i haven't seen the brutal bitter yet. anyone know where in PDX i can find it?

[sinker]

KETA,
It's all about genetics!!! :grin: :grin:

hhhmmm, maybe it's not 24oz, I just said that because someone else mentioned that number and it's equal to 2 beers.

How many oz in a fifth? It's 750ml but I can't remember the conversion ratio to convert it to oz.

[RvW]

Massive amounts of full sail amber ale on tap.

Other than that, I often went with my own version of a black and tan made with 2/3 rogue mocha porter (or sheakespear stout) and 1/3 oregon golden.

If it doesnt have 500 calories per pint its worthless, Ive got a lot of work to do if Im ever going to build an adequate toolshed. :shocked:

I quit drinking though. slipped once since New years, and will likely not slip again.


fifth = 25.6 shots; 25.6 ounces; 1.6 pints; 0.8 quarts; 0.75706 liters

The few times that I drink I am kind of partial to Wild Salmon Pale Ale.

25.6 shots!!! :shocked: :shocked:
Now wonder I've lost count so many times. :grin: :grin:

You drink to much beer and you end up

[skein]

I like MacTarnahan's Amber Ale or Negro Modelo.

"Uno mas cervasa, por favor. Dos, dos cervasas." Can't help myself, it's the only Spanish I know. Miss B Haven taught me.

Beer is a basic food group.

[Gobbaworms]

Black Butte Porter
Ruby Red
But, the all time favorite....mine own homebrew

Heavy Metal,
What kind of ginger beer you after?

Try this:
3.5lbs light malt extract
2.5lbs honey
2oz Cascade Hops (Saaz for less IPA-ish beer)
2-4oz fresh grated ginger (I'd lean toward 2oz)
Lager yeast

Haven't tried this one, but it looks good. I would use a hopping schedule of 1oz for 45min, 1/2 oz for 12min, 1/2 oz for 3min.

Let me know if you try it.

[Salmonator]

For a thirst quencher: Michealob Ultra

For everything else Amberbock or Butt-face ale which I think is distributed by the Ram tavern in Salem.

['ZZZZzzzzzz']

My top 5 have to be:

JUBELALE - Deschutes
[img]graemlins/hearton.gif[/img] BLACK BUTTE PORTER - Deschutes
IPA - Bridgeport
:grin: MIRROR POND - Deschutes
:tongue: Oktoberfest - Full Sail

In that order.

Now when it comes to fishing beer my list changes to Miller High Life in the fish box!

Cheers,

Z's-
