Redhook and Blackhook were fucking great until Bud or someone bought 'em out in the 90s.  Saddest part: No one even noticed the difference.  It was like night and day.

beer raises your estrogen levels and contributes to excess calories which cause your body to store fat in places you don't want it to...

We drink the ol VB like its going out of fashion.  Its 30 bucks a box(24 cans or stubbies) here In Victoria or 39 bucks for a 30 box.  Crown Lager is better, not sure if you can get it in USA.  Its brewed by Carlton and United breweries here in Victoria Australia.  Fosters is shisenhousen.  No one drinks it here.

If you're keen on the Belgian beers, Hoegaarden (correctly pronounced "who-har-den", but no one will know what you're talking about) is good and very drinkable on a hot day.  Leffe makes some good stuff, but it's very flavorsome and borders on being syrupy, so not as good in the heat.  Both are comparatively expensive in Aus.  Then again so is Budweiser, so why not get the good stuff?  :D

Too great of thread...i just came home from closing at work and i stumble upon this thread...we ALWAYS have WHO-har-den on tap (not to be confused with HOEgarrden!! HA! HA!) and it goes in its own special glass. Right now we have the Leffe Brown on tap but sell both (the brown and blonde) in the bottle.

thats probably the most overrated beer of all time...to me it is hardly different than coors light. i mean Duvel absolutely SUCKS.
best beer of all time - that ive tried - is either Trappistes Rochefort (10 and 8) and the Weihenstephaner Hefe is up there as well.

We sell the 6, 8 and 10 in the bottle. Westmalle makes a good triple also. Never heard of that Hefe, though. We have Paulaner on tap and then a local brewery one too.

I know anheiser bush beer generally sucks but their bourbon cask all is fucking awesome!!  I had one on tap at old chicago and at the first drink I felt like that seen in beerfest.  Seriously you guys should try it.

Lost Coast also makes some pretty damn good beers.

If your just drinking to get shit faced though nothing beats good ol' natty light!  Tastes like water.  You can kill about 15 of these easy. ;)

St. Pauly girl dark lager is tasty.

Bittburger from Germany is also pretty good.

I'm belgian but i honestly don't know that much about beer.

Duvel is pretty good, but not that special imo. Goes to your head quick too for some reason. There was a challenge for a guy to drink ten of them in one hour. After the sixth he got alcohol poisoning and had to be brought to the hospital.

Anyway, i kinda like westvleteren, westmallen, leffe,...
But most of the time i just drink regular pils.

OMG.  Just OMFG.  Please don't tell us you drink that Stella/Estrella stuff.  And you call yourself a Belgian!  >:(

Get some fritchen and a Geuze immediately before you turn into a dutchman.

I used to drink hoeys like water (got 'em for free where I worked in Brugge) but never saw 'em outside Belgium.  Over the last 5 years or so, it seems like that company has been pushing hard.  Now you can find 'em just about anywhere.  I hope they keep their quality up.


We drink the ol VB like its going out of fashion.  Its 30 bucks a box(24 cans or stubbies) here In Victoria or 39 bucks for a 30 box.  Crown Lager is better, not sure if you can get it in USA.  Its brewed by Carlton and United breweries here in Victoria Australia.  Fosters is shisenhousen.  No one drinks it here.

VB and Crownies, eh?  So how's the roof tiling business these days?

some of you are treating a few ingredients better than you treat yourselves. drink the fucking thing and enjoy what it does to your brain, stop playing with the damn bottle.
