I've become a huge Guinness fan. And there are some very good variations at the local pubs that do their own micro brew.

Ever try Murphy's Irish Stout? Along the lines of Guinness, but I think it has a much better flavor. It's a must try for a Guinness fan though.

I've been drinking way too much Dogfish 60.

Murphy's Irish Red is great, too!

Try Boulevard Double Wide double IPA. It's delicious, as well as Boulevard Single Wide IPA.

I can only get the 90 in SC. The distributor here said it's because DFH doesn't want it to become their flagship beer. I guess they don't want to be known for one thing.

There are a couple of local pubs here that brew their own and are very good.

I don't drink beer often but of the "commercial" brews I like Sam Adams, Fat Tire, Negra Modelo, Bass Ale to name a few. I am not partial to stouts so I have to really be in the mood to drink one.

Bud, Coors and similiar "beer" is swill as far as I'm concerned and I don't touch the stuff.

Cheers!

Beamish Genuine Irish Stout (also brewed in Cork, like Murphy's) is highly recommended:

Been drinking Hacker-Pschorr Octoberfest for the last two weeks, I am really enjoying this beer.

It's October, so that means Samuel Adam's Octoberfest.

I went beer shopping again. Is there a phobia for the unnatural fear of looking for a type of beer you don't have in your basement?
Third shelf from bottom far left- Uerige Doppelsticke. My favorite dark German Ale- very rich and malty.

I'm dropping by yours when I'm next in the States Chris. Now if I can just time it after you've come back from fishing or with the lobster pots as well...

Fantastic collection mate!

Hi, first of all, Mommy, I'm going over to Rumble's house to play. Beer-pocalypse will probably end up being my new word of the week.

I went to the Bear Republic Brew Pub on Sunday and had their Mach 10 on tap. Damn good, but less different than their Racer 5 than I expected, considering it was about 9.5 percent abv.

SteveAS · Nov 4, 2010

I had some Dogfishhead 90 Minute IPA on tap at the local pub last night. Damn good.
