overdrivex Posted May 31, 2009 Author Share #37 Posted May 31, 2009 It's spelled Dos Equis, as in 2 X's to celebrate the beginning of the 20th century. Brewed in Mexico since 1897. Another one of my favorite Mexican beers. HA. i completely butchered that. just goes to show how much ive drank it or even bothered to look at the bottle.

geezer Posted May 31, 2009 Share #38 Posted May 31, 2009 A lot of "taste testing" over the years but Labatts Blue has always been the favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zguitar71 Posted May 31, 2009 Share #39 Posted May 31, 2009 Half Guinness and half Bass aleI loved both of those beers only one at a time, I never was a black and tan drinker. Now I'm a tea drinker, I know off subject and kinda wussy but I quite drinking 8 years ago and I have to have something to do after work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oiluj Posted May 31, 2009 Share #40 Posted May 31, 2009 now it's mainly Sam Adams Boston Lager or Miller Lite when I want something light and watery . My absolute favorite is Sam Adams Octoberfest unfortunately it's only available for a few months each year. Nate, I'll second your Sam Adams Octoberfest. Has a really nice flavor. In terms of proper serving temperature, I like my beer served "really" cold, but then I have been accused of being a bit weird about some things... *grin* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak's Z Posted May 31, 2009 Share #41 Posted May 31, 2009 Anything Canadian. This week I was partial to Creemore. I went to university in the U.S., and on weekends I would bring back a few cases of Canadian beer because (no offense here) U.S. beer is kinda watery and light. It's like training-beer. It would be beer that Canadian children would drink in order to prepare them for real drinking when they turn legal age. (just kidding!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good one Zak!...I was thinking along those lines too but didn't want to wizz anyone off. Brought back lots of memories of my misspent youth when we had to cross the border and make the trek to Toledo, in order to drink at 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biddljj Posted June 1, 2009 Share #43 Posted June 1, 2009 I used to drink Rainier Ale but the distributors quit selling it in Colorado... SoFat Tire Ale from Belgian Brewery get's my vote - The wife like Hazed and Infused but it's too hoppy for me...JayNot just a Z - zdisease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak's Z Posted June 1, 2009 Share #44 Posted June 1, 2009 :beer:Ha Ha! Good one Zak!...I was thinking along those lines too but didn't want to wizz anyone off. Brought back lots of memories of my misspent youth when we had to cross the border and make the trek to Toledo, in order to drink at 18. Ya, all in good fun. We would debate all the time over our respective beers. I actually like to get back to the States and order a real Miller or Bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Parmley Posted June 1, 2009 Share #45 Posted June 1, 2009 If you're looking to "drink your dinner", I really like Paulaner Salvator Double Bock. It reminds me of what I had in Munich during the Stark Bier festival. The monks would use more malt to add nutrional value when ending their fast.

Arne Posted June 1, 2009 Share #46 Posted June 1, 2009 When out for dinner, I'll order whatever is the darkest micro they have on tap. Around these parts that is frequently Deschutes Brewery's Black Butte Porter. Pretty good on tap, just OK in bottles.Here at home – I haven't had any commercial brew in the house since the beginning of 2001 when I started brewing my own. Almost exclusively variations on porters and stouts. I don't drink a lot, maybe 1 or two 5 gallon batches per year, these days.I hear Arne's Black Label Reserve will make a Pinstripe fanatic don costume and drive a roadster! I believe Gary has pictures...The picture of the pinstriper you are thinking of has NOTHING to do with my brew. He wouldn't like it, as he prefers the really pale stuff. A good micro-hefe or IPA is quite a ways on the wild side for the pinstriper.Gary himself has expressed a liking for my stuff, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trout_hound Posted June 1, 2009 Share #48 Posted June 1, 2009 Moose Drool is a local flavor here... I still prefer Guinness to all others however.An old roommate of mine was best friends with the Moose Drool brewers and we used to hang out back in the day.Actually, I've become quite partial to Missoula's Kettlehouse Brewery beers - especially the Cold Smoke Scotch Ale in the 16 oz can. I do enjoy a Guinness, especially when in Ireland, but I have to say that my favorite beers are either made by the Deschutes Brewery in Oregon (Obsidian Stout, Black Butte Porter, etc), or by the Sierra Nevada Brewing Company (specifically, their Bigfoot Ale - over 9%). I don't really drink American lagers (better known as wizz beers), although Sam Adams Boston Lager is ok.DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
