you have shit taste in beer and have no business starting a beer thread.
>>685650951
disgusting beer and apparently a real shit company, but I wouldn't know because I'm a Canada fag
>>685651283
Enjoy your IPA's.
>>685651615
fuck yea. Ballast Point Dorado is the finest of the fine, you uncultured swine.
>>685651877
>could not be more casual
Cheers.
>>685652105
i would never knock glasses with you, smug faggot. get out of here.
How the fuck does anyone drink this shit
It tastes like ass

Autism?
>>685650951
ITT: Beer labels with cool design and/or edgy message, of 2 year old or less breweries, therefore the beer is good and we buy it.
ITT: Beer elitists.
You always remind me of a guy who was at the same party I was last summer who went on about what an uncultured swine I was and began listing all his favorite labels and their qualities- about half an hour before he puked all over the deck and passed out in a chair next to the fire.
I continued partying and got into some 8/10's pants while he sat there passed out with his mouth wide open, slowly melting his shoes.
>>685650951

>>685653190
Guess why they happen to list the quantity in Fluid Ounces on the bottle.
>>685653461
Murica, fuck yeah!
>>685653655
is this like german budweiser?
>>685653190
Label has no flashy colors, no cool design, no edgy message and the name is not cool.
Must taste like piss.
>>685653291
I don't give enough of a shit about beer I guess. I have a few brands I like and really care what someone else thinks about them. Also, who's butthurt again?
>>685651877

Looks so good and refreshing
>>685654292
where are you from?
>>685653937
I said I like a few brands. Why not offer recommendations instead of belittling what other people enjoy?
>>685654972
mexifag, top and bottom are some mexican microbrews, really tasty
Like a 9% abv tropical fruit juice

>thinking Americans don't know about gueuze
Motherfucker, I brew gueuze! And yes, that means I'm blending my own old and young lambic.
>>685654160
My nigga
>>685653190
why drink a pleb gueuze like beersal?
bust out some cantillon or 3f you faggot.
>>685656039
no you dont.
Drinking this disgusting shit because a friend left it here.
>>685655494
The yanks are doing some pretty decent stuff these days if you look for it. There are loads of great new breweries, especially in California.
The usual mass market stuff is utter shite though.
>>685656039
>young lambic

>>685656172
yes i do
>>685656106
Agreed. Or this..
>>685656547
no...you seriously dont.
unless of course you live in belgium in that specific area and wild ferment your lambic in open topped casks or koelschips...
which you dont.
so again...no you dont.
>>685656466
Got any tips?
I like blonde beer. Mostly seek out Belgium for my beer.
>>685656172
Oh, but I do.
>>685656466

Also this:

This
>>685656784
"lambic" is not a region-protected term. You can buy Brettanomyces bruxellensis and various Lactobacillus strains at any decent homebrew store. Yes, I fucking do.
Also, your autism is showing.
>>685657270
settle down, pervert.
Always amazes me....America brews some astounding craft ales...yet drinks Bud Light
>>685650951
>God Tier
>>685657270
I brew too. Never did Lambic. Do you reach a result close to original belgian gueuzes?
Nice and creamy. Better than Guinnes in my opinion.
>>685657559
what is a red ipa? describe its taste in detail.
>>685657550
Don't lump me in with those trailer-trash inbred Trump-supporting retards.
>>685650951
The best beer I've had. But really expensive.
Worth it though.
>>685656826
Jester King from Texas, and The Bruery (pictured in my prev post) do a lot of really good Belgian inspired stuff with their own twist. Expensive and rare as hell outside of the states though unfortunately.
Most American stuff that's widely available in Europe is stuff like Stone, Green Flash, and Founder who usually do more hoppy things but not exclusively. Stone have actually just opened a second brewery in Berlin so it's pretty easy to get their stuff super fresh if you go to a decent specialist beer shop
>>685657270
funny youd choose the bruxellensis instead of the lambicus.
Well impressed by American and European brews tonight.
>>685651581
Not OP but what's the story there anon?
I always liked their Juniper IPA but apart from that the rest always seemed standard.
>>685657849
I live in Norway. I already pay 7-10 dollars for beer. Will give them a try. Cheers anon!
Drinking a Founders KBS I bought yesterday.
>>685657559
Where do they sell this??
Love to try O'Haras and Liquid Mistress. Thanks to posters.
>>685655244
You should try to find St Stefanus... It's fantastic. Duvel used to be my favourite now its St Stefanus
>>685658652
and also this one
>>685657687
They come pretty close, actually. My first batch that flavorful, but that was more the fault of my mash not being fully extracted.
The thing that sucks about it is that it's a very long fermentation. I do a 1.5years for the old and 6months for the young, so it's not a thing to do if you din't wanna wait for it.
>>685657805
Oh look the nice bottle and the cool label, let's buy it.
>>685658652
Nice one, I had it some time ago. Really interesting texture.
>>685657740
It's hard to describe, it has that hoppy and bitterness of an IPA but it is cut through with a slightly fruity and darker taste. It seems to combine the best of a red ale with an IPA.
>>685658160
Well it is a small brewery in my county which does this ale (UK). I'm not sure how widely they export it.
>>685658860
dude youre retarded...youre only using two vintages of lambic for your "gueuze"?
lol.
This
>>685658486
Liquid Mistress is great and also look out for their Carribbean Chocolate cake stout that comes out in the Autumn. Definitely one of the best strong stouts I've ever had.
great tasting stout, cali creamin is pretty damn good too.
>>685659151
Is two not standard? Enlighten me.
>>685658860
1,5 year. wow.
Is your alcohol content reliable with these additions of lactobacillus?
>>685659151
I'm not that guy, but I thought that's not unusual? Usually it's a 1yr and a 3yr though.
>>685655655
Hello Dane-Lord!!! When I visited I stocked up on your wonderful craft offerings. Packed my bag with like 6 bottles. Had some of the best session IPAs ever there.

better to try something and either love it or hate it than to stay stuck with the same beers, don't be such a pretentious prick, we have enough beer nobs as it is already.
>>685659167
Excellent beer but highly overrated.
>>685659787
drink more and wake up at night.
>>685659787
stop drinking like there's no tomorrow and learn to savor your beer instead of chugging.

I've had it three times. Twice it's been good but the other time it was fucking phenomenal.
German beer <3
>>685659591
More than you'd think. I sort of have the addition of it down to a ritual, including the time at which I take it out of the fridge nd how I pour it in.
pricey but fucking delicious.
>>685661608
Do you buttchug that? I certainly wouldn't want it in my mouth.
>>685662098
thoughts?
This was absolutely amazing. Still doesn't beat Gulden Draak standard or 9000, but damn close.
>>685650951
What is best type of beer for least amount of carbonation? I really like beer but i can't drink much of it because all the carbonation upsets my stomach.
>>685659167
Holy shiet, I still haven't gotten a hold of any.
>>685658652
Great!
>>685662198
as far as like doing a hand stand and having someone pour it into my asshole or....what?

>stout
alright, i get the picture now. You're probably the type of guy who says hes really into beers but only drinks run of the mill IPAs.
>>685662374
If you ever get the chance go for it. It's definitely a treat although it is incredibly expensive outside of Belgium.
>>685662359
Have you considered that it might be the yeast that upsets your stomach and not the carbonation? Does your stomach act up from soda too?

I'll most likely go to the abbey and buy it in person.
>>685650951
Got that on draft at the bar is work at. Go through tons of craft beers but that's a staple we always have
>>685663187
no jessica, i just don't like beers with chocolate or coffee or pineapple or jalopanoes or watermelon or other gross shit. beer should taste like beer.
>>685663274
Possible. My usual drink is whisky and that feels just fine.
One of my all time faves
>>685663713
you don't like it, but a good amount of other people do. I think you'd be better off posting in a budwesier appreciation thread.Rule of thumb, don't know it till you try it.
>>685664234
*knock it
>>685663796
would that be made in galveston?
>>685663722
Whisky will have no yeast left, compare it to light beer or beer that has been sitting for a while, letting the bubbles disappear over night in the fridge or something.
>>685664234
i'm not going to drink that swill just because other people do. i hope your coffee stout abomination gives you diarrhea. don't you talk down to me, faggot. it's my fucking mouth and i know what's good for it. PHILISTINE!

Define beer...
Herbs and spices have been used in beer for centuries.
>>685664325
>Yeast
>Whisky
wut?
In all seriousness though, if you want less carbonation in your beer try and find a place that serves it from a cask, they dont get force carbed with CO2 so tend to be a much smoother drink, but it does still naturally carbonate from the conditioning though.
>>685664453
>define beer
you sound like a fucking tranny.

>>685664621
Wait, you don't even put yeast in whisky, my bad.
Point was that whisky is irrelevant to how your stomach feels.

That's just what the jews want you to believe.
trappist beer belgium
>>685664621
Most craft beer, or beer better than complete piss, is not artificially carbonated...

lololol, awww did someones bud light spill? sounds like someones having a bad day.

how new are you? that lame shit isn't going to upset me.
>>685665022
transformer confirmed!
>>685664915
Orval is great, the one I've tasted by them was a bit different from other trappist beers I've had. Somewhat sour, but rich and amazing none the less.
>>685663370
some local shops sell it too at a mark-up - they shouldn't but they do.
Goose island IPA is good from US
>>685665151
alright then, recommend me some good beer, multiple beers please, since you seem to know so damn much.
Does anybody knows what "pilsner" beer is?
If u haven´t tried this, u haven´t tried good beer.

nah, it's nap time. go to church, sinner. we'll continue this tonight. when i'm done watching game of thrones and have a proper buzz i'll steer your sewer mouth in the proper direction.
Can you get this in the States?
>>685664787
Yes that was my point. That whisky, being yeast free, agrees perfectly fine with me while beer usually does not. So yes, it's quite possible my issue is the yeast and not the carbonation.
>>685665456
>implying pilsner isn't common stuff in eu
I'm not implying pilsner is bad, on the other hand I am implying that Pilsner Urquell is shit.
>>685664956
No, you're right, but when served from a bottle/standard pub keg the beer stays carbonated, in the case of the keg due to the addition of more CO2 to presurise and serve the beer. A cask will let the beer breath and is only "pressurised" for serving using air and so usually less carbonated at the point of drinking.
There are always exceptions though, but in general cask beer is less fizzy

>including the time at which I take it out of the fridge nd how I pour it in.
I didn't get it.
Have tasted more than 400 different beers. .. name better than Pilsner Urquell or Budweiser Budvar lager
>>685665778
hmm, can't even recommend me one good beer, seems like all my instincts about you were right all along.
>>685665963
Yes, definitely. My remark was only referring to the process of artificial carbonation.
>>685665695
Yeah, I thought it was phenomenal. Better than the Gulden Draak/9000 IMO but each to their own.
Rochefort 10, and St Bernardus Abt. are both excellent examplse of this style too, as is the famous Westy XII
>>685666216
Rochefort 10 is among my absolute favourites. Too bad they stopped selling it here.

>>685664956
>>685664621
>>685664325
Your problem is probably not the carbonatation or the yeast but bloating because of the addition of dextrines in industrial beer.
There are no addition of dextrines in craft beers give it a try.
>>685666369
Yes, both the Rochefort and St Bernadus are amazing! Gouden Carolus Cuvee Van De Keizer blue was something I managed to get a hold of when they had a very limited stock of those locally. Definitely up there with the greats, still haven't tried the Westvleteren.

>>685666447
Sweden, we've got state regulated liquor shops, anything above 3.5% alc can't be sold anywhere else. My local shop used to stock both Trappistes Rochefort 10 and Maredsous blonde 6, but they stopped about a year ago. Luckily there's still Chimay blue in their regular stock.
>>685666240
Fireston Walker - Pivo Pils, Birrificio Italiano -Tipopils, Victory - Prima Pils, Beavertown - No Wiser, To Øl - My Pils, To Øl - Raid Beer, Mikkeller - El Cellar De Can Roca.
Just some better pilsners, it's not really a style I enjoy so IMO there a loads of better beers, but these are just better examples of that style.

Woops, answered myself
this was for you man: >>685667271
Gotta buy local, I don't want beer that has been sitting on the shelf for half a year(for most styles)

>>685667622
>>685666240
Have you tried radeberger nigga¿
if you don't drink this you aren't living
>>685667622
>>685667718
Those look interesting, but it sure looks like you poured the yeast into your glass, which is just fucking retarded.
>>685650951
Currently drinking one of these things, normally I don't drink flavored beers. I'm assuming they're new, they were promoting them at a local gas station for some reason and the clerk encouraged me to try it out. Really not that great, but they were selling them for a dollar so no big loss.
Normally I just drink cheap beer, Keystone light or Busch regular. Or whiskey.
Personally, I think it's retarded to spend 10+ dollars on a six pack of something that isn't even going to get me drunk. If that's your thing, cool, but they're not really for me. I drink to get drunk so it's pretty impractical. It takes me at least a 12 pack to get decently drunk and buying multiple $10 6 packs gets pretty expensive.
Once and a while I'll buy them, usually something that has a fish on the box just so I can be like "hey, look at these cool fish beers I bought. They taste like absolute shit, but the bottle is pretty cool." Obviously there are some good ones out there, but based on what I've tried there seems to be more good than bad. All of these new, small breweries try to make their beer stand out from the others, and it usually does. Just not in a good way
>>685667909
Hop haze man, those east coast IPA's are all super hazy
Don't mind me. I prefer simple local beer.
>>685667909
lol nope. they're just wicked hazy beers. it's the new "thing" for east coast ipas. hazy and thick.
Best beer in da world
>>685668102
this bro gets it.
>>685668132
nothing wrong with simple locally brewed beer.
Another good east coast IPA, same place brews Heady Topper. I'm sure some of you beer fags must know about them.
>>685653461
Don't all beers list the amount of ounces on the bottle/can? Or is that typically a US thing?
Every beer I've ever drank has had the fl. ounces listed.
ive never been a fan of Ipa's or bitter beers
Cream Ale's sound like they would be good but usually aren't
dark ales and stouts are usually the best in body and flavor
>>685653820

Learn to math.
>>685668468
I've heard stories but have only tried a bit of one of their beers that my friend brought from europe when he ran into one of their reps. Never seen them in any stores, I'm west Canada tho
>>685668671
*don't
>>685668440
Its just that other russians often say that russian beer is always bad. It's a stereotipe. But i've drank a lot of beer in my time and still prefer this brand.
>>685668562
Never heard of it, probably cause im a nazi fag.
But I really like the bottle design tho
>>685668807
Sadly they don't distribute anywhere outside of Vermont. The old brewery stopped selling cases on site too, which makes the drive not worth it to me anymore.
Good news is they're opening up a new spot this summer in Stowe, VT and will have cases for sale again!

My, BC nigga
>>685655244
Is good
>>685669768
its azote instead of CO2, correct?
>>685668671
Damn I didn't even know keystone was 4.2%, thought it was 5. Not a big difference.
But I said at least a 12 pack. I usually drink much more.
I've also seen very few craft beers that are anything above 6%. Then again, as I mentioned I'm not really into them so I don't really look that hard. Every one I've seen though ranges from $10-16 or so for a 6 pack, so that turns me off of them itself.
I'll have to go check out a good, strong one at the beer distributer tomorrow. Any suggestions? Preferably nothing with some weird, bitter taste to it. That's the shit that I don't like. I don't mind strong tasting, but if it's a weird combination of sorts I might not like it.
I've had Stone IPA before, the only with the green and black label with the gargoyle. It wasn't too bad, but it had a really distinct aftertaste that I wasn't too particularly fond of
>>685670797
Then again, the Stone IPA said right on it to keep refrigerated and they were sitting out on a shelf on a discount rack. Any brand that doesn't sell they stop ordering and pull it out of the coolers and sell for about 1/3 of what it normally costs, just to get people to buy it. Could have been sitting there for quite some time, which might be why it left a funky taste
