Beer thread

Here in America hard liqour is mainly for alcoholics and teenagers (McCormick Vodka is only like $8.00 for a 1.75l bottle, so you and 5 other guys can get drunk for less than $2.00 a piece, economical for high school students.)...as is cheapy macro-brew beer.

I don't see anything sissy about a double shot of Jameson in a pint of Guinness...

Can you see a teenager splashing out 100GBP or more on a bottle of whisky, simply to get drunk?

Can you see a teenager drinking Whisky for enjoyment

No? Thought so

My cup of tea - ehhh beer are these ones:

For more casual sophistication: Newcastle Brown Ale

For pleasure only    : Westmalle Trappist Dubbel

Of course, my local beer is quite good too: Hansa Pilsner

Beer is fine, but I guess I'm more of a claret loving guy!

Ok "Maestro" has got to be like the best beer in the world. If you ever get a chance to try it, you will see. It's Czech beer btw.

Here are some local beers I like:

Detmolder Pilsener

Detmolder Landbier (I prefer this one )

The beer you'll mostrly see at parties here is Herforder Pils. It's also from a local brewery.

Sometimes I drink Wüllners Braumeister from Bilefeld. You can call this local, too.

If it's not local stuff, then it will be Becks or Paulaner Weizen.

cheers!

That´s my favourite, brewed in Cologne, near my Hometown.

I didn´t know it´s available outside Germany...has anyone had a Reissdorf already ?

[-TU--33ker 0]

I only heard something about "Rammsdorfer Kölsch" it was mentionned in the movie "Voll Normaaal!"

In fact I never had a Kölsch. I think you'll get it only around Cologne and I've never been down there.

The best thing about beer is that it actually helps when you're thirsty and that you can drink a lot of it before you're drunk.

And did I mention that it can be pretty cheap?

lmao..how could i forget the big Rammsdorfer    I guess this means "Köln Kalk verbot" for me  

No, just kidding, this Rammsdorfer is fiction afaik..never seen that.

What beer do you mean, Hansa perhaps ??

I bought a Box of Reissdorf (20 bottles) a few minutes ago, it cost me 15 € (Pfand incl.), in the good ´ol times of the GermanMark the same was priced about 19 DM (10 €)

I prefer dark wheat beer ("dunkles Hefeweizen", like dark Erdinger) or dark beer in general (Ur-Köstritzer for example), apart from that maybe a good Pilsener style beer. The Czech beers are very good but hard to get around here, so I go with the local Rothaus.

[put's on flame proof tin hat]

Anyways, no beer's as good as a nice red wine (a Rioja or a dry burgundy)!

I have tasted only one kölch,it was called "gaffel kölch"

kölch is a ale type of beer, but very lagerlike. I tasted the malt very strongly in it..

Gaffel has the most bitter taste of all Kölsch´s imo.

btw: It´s brewing tradition reaches back to 1398 or something like that, my dad likes it much

Jupiler (B) +2

Amstel (NL) +1

Heineken (NL) +1

Romy (B) +1

Carlsberg (DK) 0

Grolsch (NL) 0

Kronenbourgh (F) 0

Karlsquell (B) -0,5

Stella Artois (B) -0,5

Derby (B) -1

Dommelsch (NL) -1

Primus (B) -1

Bitburger (D) -2

Delhaize premium (B) -2

Euroshopper (NL) -3

Hertog Jan (NL) -4

Maes (B) -4

Aro (B) -5

Brand (NL) -6

Personally I like the stronger belgian beers most. For example: Duvel, Ciney, Chimay, Delirium Tremens, Tripel.

But on hot days like this, a cool pilsner beer or a white beer is delicious too!

Oh yes, Chimay is a very good trapist beer. Have you tried Westmalle Trappist Dubbel? In my opinion it's even better .

Edit: that includes both chimay blue and white

No, Hansa is a "Penner- und Maurerbier".

Ever heard something about Waldschloss? I think it's from Wuppertal and it's very cheap compared to other beers (around 30 cent for 0.5l), but it also tastes very good. Unfourtenately it's out of stock here at the moment.

another cheap beer is Felsenkrone, but it's not very good. We once have stolen something about 35 cans from a party where they had the last canned beer after the Dosenpfand. after one week all the cans were finished in one evening. Because it tasted so awfull we had to use this special piece of equipment:

(we're not on the photo)

*edit*

just found a definition of cheap German beer.

Anyone try Pilsner Urquell?  My favorite pub had it on tap a few years back, was good while it lasted.

Thanks for the input guys, you are really knowledgeable, and it's kinda nice to talk about something other than how evil my country is.

You want to talk about your evil country? Ok

WHY oh WHY do you have to put perfume Southern Comfort It sounds like a nice whisky/bourbon and doesn't taste bad, but when I found out that you essentially put perfume into it, it kinda put me off
