Five Beers to Try Before I Die

[bgbigdog]

As much as I'd like to focus on D2's discussion of "fine breasts," there is more important subject matter to address.

I'm surprised there isn't a call for two domes placed very closely together.

The old San Onofre Stadium

:lol: :clap:

Majestic is the word that I'd use. :thumb:

The only 5 beers I drink, don't care about trying any others.

1.) Keystone Light
2.) Busch Light
3.) Pabst Blue Ribbon
4.) Icehouse
5.) Natty Light

It's not that I agree, it's that I respect the shit out of this post if you're being serious. Drink what you like.

When i'm at a Griz game I like to drink what i drank when I was a student, just for old time sakes.

Nice. I respect that. I would have to drink "Mad Dog 20/20".

Ahh yes Mad Dog, used to get those and others at the Grizzly Grocery back in the glory days

I remember when Coors was a treat and it used to taste a lot better - when we had to drive to Wyoming to score some.

That being said, I have been enjoying Irish Death lately.

The Germans have heavily influenced Mexican beer making:

"The industry truly began to develop in the latter half of the 19th century, due to an influx of German immigrants to Mexico and the short-lived Second Mexican Empire headed by emperor Maximilian I of Mexico of the House of Habsburg, an Austro-Germanic ruling family. The emperor had his own brewer, who produced Vienna-style dark beers. This influence can be seen in two popular brands of Negra Modelo and Dos Equis Amber."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_in_Mexico

Same with San Miguel and the Philippines:

"Under a royal grant from Spain, Don Enrique María Barretto de Ycaza y Esteban opened La Fabrica de Cerveza de San Miguel, Southeast Asia's first brewery, on September 29, 1890 at 6 Calzada de Malacañan in Manila, near the Malacañan Palace, the then-residence of the Governor-General of the Philippines. The trade-name San Miguel, originates from the local brewery of San Miguel, Barcelona, Spain. He named the company after the section of Manila in which he lived and worked. Besides the flagship brew, it also produced several brews that almost all disappeared, including Double Bock, Cerveza Negra, Foreign Stout, Gold Ribbon, Extra Stout, Imported Pilsner Type, and Super Bock.

Barretto was soon joined by Pedro Pablo Roxas, who brought with him a German brewmaster, Ludwig Kiene, as technical director. San Miguel's brew won its first major award at 1895's Philippines Regional Exposition. After six years of operation, the fledgling brewery was outselling imported brands five to one. At the outbreak of World War I, San Miguel was exporting its beer to Hong Kong, Shanghai and Guam. The company was incorporated in 1913."

They're damn good Pilsners (lagers).

You can add Bohemia to that list of Mexican Beers that were influenced by German immigrants.....

I'm kind of on a Newcastle Brown Ale kick.

Newcastle Brown Ale is perceived in the UK as a working-man's beer, with a long association with heavy industry, the traditional economic staple of the North East of England. In export markets, it is seen as a trendy, premium import and is predominantly drunk by the young. It was one of the first beers to be distributed in a clear glass bottle and it is most readily associated with this form of dispense in the UK.

I consider Newcastle a good "gateway beer" along with Belgian whites. It gets people into drinking better beer and allows them to aquire a taste for something other than yellow beer.

I don't care what the beer is, I don't drink it if I can see through it.

Pretty much spot on for me too!!! :clap:

When I was at UM 50 years ago, there was a beer we bought called Bohemian. 79 cents a 6-pack. Fine, affordable. As far as Mexican beers go, the only one I drink anymore is Modello Especial. Almost as good as Budweiser.

Haven't seen the world's oldest pilsner mentioned, Czech Republic's Pilsner Urquell, still the gold standard IMHO. Heading for South America Monday anxious to try Peru's renowned Chicha corn beer. Haven't tried Dogfish Head's version so I guess I'm behind the corn beer curve...will try a taste comparison when I get back home.

There was a beer tasting the other day at the Tap Room. The people there were giving samples of Firestone Walker. The beer was great. Velvet Merlin was really good. As was the XX.

I really dig Firestone Walker's beers. Had the XX over Christmas and it was very good. Have a bottle of Sticky Monkee and Agrestic in the cabinet. Half a half growler of XX in the cabinet too. They do good stuff.
