It is what it is
I love heavy beers; I forgot to mention Guinness!
Victoria Bitter (VB) is especially big in Victoria, while Toohey's is biggest in New South Wales and XXXX dominates in Queensland.
I see more people drinking Coopers Green...

Cheers!

That's interesting, never heard of any of those beers. Do they spill out 'cause your upside down at all?
Did a quick research and those beers I mentioned are the biggest ones in America. Sierra Nevada is our biggest microbrew and the only one I can stand.
& I had one of those lovely Fosters tonight mate.

The Elephant Beer from Carlsberg?
Elephant Beer is lovely. What you'd term round my way as 'rocket fuel' though. I had some Modelo Negra at the weekend. Very nice.
Old Style and Schlitz
I like any kind of beer, but these two are among my favorites. Has anyone else here tried the re-formulated Krausened version of Old Style? It's actually really good. Now that Schlitz is backing to it's 1960's formula, I fond myself drinking that a lot as well. They are both great beers...better than MGD or High Life.

yeah said it before but being Belgian and loving beer go great together. The best one out there is the "blue" Chimay. Like angels having an orgy in your mouth
Can't remember if I've mentioned Krusovice (Czech Pilsner). A bit like Staropramen and Budvar but a bit nicer.
...
I did mention it. On the previous page :D In my defence I was drinking some at the weekend.

if you're hops fan look for Hop Stoopid (highly hopped IPA but with with some kind of hop extract as well). To me it's absolute candy. Sierra Nevada's fresh hops ales are also spectacular.
I saw some of that freshly hopped Sierra today, but chose instead a limited edition georgia brew with fresh wet hops from Sweetwater Brewery called Wet Dream Ale.
it's tasty. a bit more flavor than Dogfish Head 90 minute (which is awesome) but not as much punch. I'll try the Sierra next time as well as the Hop Stoopid...
that said, the best beer I've had in a long long time is in Asheville NC; Wedge Brewery's Iron Rail IPA. sorry, kegs only, in town...

When you finally come out here, we can go to the Dogfish Head Brewery (only 1/2 hour away) and you can drink it straight outta the spout....

Plus, they have a brew pub that has beers that are brewed locally and only available here.

I'll have to try dogfishhead again then. I tried the 60 minute a few weeks ago but I think it was past it.

I tried the sierra and the hop stoopid. both are very tasty. the floral notes in the hop stoopid are dandy.
I've seen the little cans, dunno bout them...I've never had a canned beer that tasted like anything but watery shit. and yes, I've tasted watery shit.
it's called budweiser.

Drinking a can of Bud Light right now and their is nothing wrong with beer that is actually beer and not bluebeery flavored-eat a fuck'n muffin for crissakes-or all these lard-de-dah microbrews.
Real men like Bopress drink Coors Light as well as I, not a real man myself but a tranny man at least.
So drink real American beer and not one made of Belgian waffles, remember Buk drank Schlitz until he got rich and drank German beer but he was born in that country so there you go.

That is great, slimedog, well said. When did you go back to Massachusetts?
Look, I'll drink Miller Lite, Miller, MGD, Coors, Coors Light, Schlitz, Schaefer, Narragansett, Milwaukee's Best, The Great Taste of Beer as advertised by Chris Schenkle, PBR, generic beer or the occasional rat's piss, but I will never again drink anything "Bud." I'd rather drink diarrhea directly from Charles Manson's ass.
Oh, and welcome back to MA. I'll bet you missed our Yankee shyness.

I need to go visit MA. I've met many nice people from there and my ancestors were from around there. Most of all there is lots of great beer up there.
I worked for a politically incorrect guy from Boston who drinks Corona. What's up with that?

As crazy as that sounds it could be quite good. So long as slimedog is off the acid. Purple I'm sure is a formally trained bassist and slimedog I bet is self taught by ear but he did play bass on Hey Jude.
