Spaten Oktoberfest beer is good. The pub I frequent has it on draft, and it tastes good. But, they kept selling out, so when I came across a case at Cosco, I grabbed it. (IMG:http://www.spatenusa.com/3_products/3_3_prod_spectrum/3_2_1_produkt/images/oktoberfest.jpg)
Not as tasty out of the bottle, but close. I have "aged" the brew in my dank, cool basement for about one month, and the flavor has mellowed out to a nice smooth flavor with a touch of fruit. If you drink it right away, you might notice a skunky taste, so I am glad my "aging" process helped mellow it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

Me Canadian, me like beer! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

Beer, beer-beer

Bottle of beer, beer-beer...


Up here in Ontario Canada we buy our beer at "The Beer Store.

Marketing geniuses, they also came up with the catchy slogan "The Beer Store...where the beers are."
Bunch of dickheads, but I digress...

You go in and they have a wall of beer, at least a couple of hundred brands. Then you order a box of 6, 12, 24 (pronounced two-four) or now 28 bottles or cans.
We also have Bubba (can of draft about 12 bottles worth) and quarts etc.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

I like most beer and keep changing brands but lately I've been drinking Carling Black Ice, 6.1 % alc./vol. which is 12.2 proof, our strongest beer is Maxamum Ice at 7.1% alc./vol. which is 14.2 proof. Regular beer is 5% alc./vol. which is 10 proof.

That's why when Canadians drink a box of US beer all it does is give us the urge to take a large piss. LOL

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Beer defintely is Food !

I have recently started brewing my own beer. Not the stupid kit way but really brewing it. It is alot of fun and now on my fourth batch it is getting really good. If anyone loved beer like I love beer you should try this

BEER (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Also this is a great way to get a better quality of beer than the watered down piss that passes for beer in America !

Brewing your own beer is great. I was turning out a batch a week a couple of years ago but haven't brewed any in a while. It is real simple to do and you can create beers you just can't buy. I don't use the kits either. A good recipe turns out a much better beer.

Don't come to Utah for beer. They can't sell it if its over 3.5%. You think normal US beer is weak, try the stuff they try to force on us.

bah!

I don't drink much beer anymore. To many years working in bars.

My favorite brews are:

Chimay (Blue (9%) or Red (7%)
Kwak (Don't know what % but gets you pissed fast)

and then Full Sail Amber which is about 6%.


Speaking of which - are we interested in an evening trip to Toronado in San Francisco one night? Many beers and yummy hot-dogs from the sausage place next door??

Fiid.

I like the Chimay Red and White. The blue is abit strong for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Kwak is good too, especially when You get it served in the traditional Enormous Chemist looking glass with holder.

I'll let you know whats up. Im not sure where we are staying, but I am sure my girlfriend would want to go out one of the nights.

Toronado has the chemistry set glasses for Kwak. It's all part of the experience.

Actually last time I was at Toronado (about a week ago) there was a 914 parked outside when I was walking in! It must be a sign! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif)

Amnesia (in the Mission) has Kwak (heresay) but serves it in pint glasses. Wusses.

Microbrew with some pretty strong and aggressive beers. They will really kick you in the pants. You can find it all over SoCal and occasionally elsewhere.

Their IPA is the hoppiest beer I have ever tasted. And their Arrogant Bastard Ale is definitely worth a try too.

The strongest beer we had here was called "Manitoba 200" brewed for the Provinces 200th birthday. It was 13.5%

Old Stock used to be 12%

When I drink beer it's usually "Standard". Label looks like Bud and was the reason Bud wasn't sold up here for years.
