Title: Mmmm Beer!
Post by: Muddy on Jun 20, 2025, 09:19 PM
I like beer! I often drink it.

So here's a thread to post beers that I drink or drank.

Feel free to add yours!

Tonight it's Boddington's pub ale.

I've been looking for a dimpled beer mugg for some time. I found this one at the goodwill today.

For a English style mug you need a English style ale.

I believe I may have had this on draft years and years ago. But tonight I grabbed a 4 pack.

Smooth creamy and slightly sweet with a clean aftertaste.


Not too bad I could see having quite a few next to a fireplace in an English pub somewhere.

For awhile I drank a lot of Yuengling,  the switched th Shiner.About 6 months or so back, I switched to PBR and find I both love the taste of PBR, but even more love the price. I exclusively buy 16oz tall boy 12 packs for $14.03 now. Before the recent price hike of beer impacting al brands, 12 packs of tall cans had been costing me lead than $1 per tall can. Since the recent price hike impacts all brands, PBR remains the hands down cheapest decent tasting bar at the cheapest cost per oz beer I know of. Yup, cost per oz definitely does impact my brand of choice

Just got back from COSTCO and noticed that they now have an in-house Kirkland Lager Beer, Has anyone tried this beer? I didn't have the guts to actually buy it, but am looking for information on this brand. COSTCO has a reputation for contracting with high quality producers when it comes to putting their name on a product; -- but Beer?

That said, I was brave enough to purchase two bottles of the new Kirkland Signature Cabernet Sauvignon, and have to report that it is an absolutely fantastic premium wine. I will go back next week and get some more. BUT the beer I'm not too sure about.

I used to be a Bud Light Kinda guy, but you really can't insult me and never issue an apology and expect me to give you my hard earned money. Yeah, I get that Ultra is the same company but I have a lot of friends who work for the distributor.(I used to work there too)

Don't drink much beer anymore. Don't drink much anything anymore for that matter. Iron City and Lone Star were always my favorites but neither is the same anymore I believe both are now produced by third party breweries. So my one or two a year probably doesn't count for much.

Oddly, I grew up in Pittsburgh and never heard of Yuengling.

I drink a lot of beer. I used to drink a lot of Coors and Molson (shudder) but now prefer IPAs. I can't stand the weak beers, because they go down like water.

These days, it is Usually Sierra Nevada Atomic Torpedo or Voodoo Ranger Imperial IPA. These are 9+ abv. Not lawnmower beer.

My favorite beer is North Coast Brewing Brother Thelonious. It was unavailable for a few years because the family of Thelonious Monk sued the brewery for using his likeness and name.
It is now available again, but none of the local stores carry it. I can order it online to be delivered because they are a California brewery and I live in California. I haven't tried online ordering yet, but I might. That stuff is like the nectar of the Gods.
It is expensive. It is the Snap-On of beer.

Drink up me hearties, Yo Ho!

I have heard a lot about Yuengling and have wanted to try it, but apparently it is unobtainum on the west coast.

It's darn good beer, and for a time I switched to it a couple years ago when it first appeared in Kansas. However being a bit of a tight wad, I have since  switched to 16oz PBR 12 pack talls (currently $14.03) and have no plans to buy any other brand since I love the taste and the price even more.

Not the greatest stout I've had, but acceptable.

One of my favorites. Yuengling Oktoberfest.


 Fall (even though it was 80 degrees today) is my favorite time of year.

Fegley's Pilsner Nocturno. This is the second black pilsner I've had. Prefer them over regular pilsners
