In honor of Graphik's post in the "Neighborhood", here is a topic for all those folks of age.
What is your favorite beer to drink? Domestic, imported, microbrew...doesn't matter (though I'm not talking about the slam 'em down to get plastered Natural Light variety, unless it's your thing).
Myself, I'm pretty flexible and have a bad habit of buying a new six pack everytime I make the trek, trying to find that "perfect" beer. My list focuses on beers that should be available in most places.
While I know I said favorite, I have to list a few:
1. Samuel Adams Cherry Wheat - I just love this one. It's not overly fruity, and the cherry just makes this wheat beer a winner!
2. Fat Tire - I know most of you east of the Mississippi haven't tasted this beauty yet, but it's coming. It's from a small brewery in Ft. Collins, CO (New Belgium) and it's just fantastic from the tap!
3. Heineken - A popular beer, but well balanced and light on the palate.
4. Michelob Amberbock - One of my all time favorites, even from my "experimental" days
Honorable Mention: Any black porter. I love the dark beers, especially those with chocolate and caramel malts (Black & Tan was one, but it's been discontinued). I'm also a big fan of pretty much anything that Brewer Patriot makes, with the exception of their Scotch Ale, who's sheep peat "secret" ingredient just sours the beer.
