My go-to

>>15561626
You could've rotated it before posting

Anyway, never heard of it myself. I think the only Japanese beer I've had is Kirin Ichiban. I know the most famous one is Asahi but I don't think I've ever tried that.

>>15561592
I'm drunk as donkey cunts and here's a list of shit ive drank tonight

Otherchalf small IACED in space 6.5 % £
Ipa quite nice

>>15561705
Vault City Tropical sour tastes lively like holiday cummies

for me, it's the fish.

Really like this one.

>>15561592
you're a fag

ITT

>>15561691
Kirin, Sapporo, and Asahi are the “big 3”, but they don’t actually export. In North America, those beers are brewed in California & Canada (and some Sapporo comes from Vietnam)

Orion is only brewed in Okinawa, so even in Japan it’s more expensive than the others. But it’s my favorite hot-weather beer, which makes sense as it’s made by people who live on a practically-tropical hot/humid island.

>>15561742
The only fag here is you, anon.

>>15561739
came here to post this. the only acceptable """ipa"""

>>15561777
I'm British not American, but yeah maybe they brew it in Britain or someplace in Europe.

>>15561592
This bad bitch made my stay in Nice even nicer

>>15561726
VERDANT 40 WATT MOON VERY NICE BETTER THAN THAT FAGGY NY BREWERY OTHER HALF FUCK THOSE JEWY BURGER CUNTS

>>15561842
The only """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""acceptable""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" ipa is your mums smelly jizzm you failed abortion cunt

>>15561843
Probably.
I do know Asahi licenses a brewery in Italy to make their beer. Oddly enough I’ve been seeing Italian Asahi instead of the Canadian stuff in the stores here in burgerland.

>>15561960
rude.

>>15561950
Kozel cerny is nice dark lager from czechistan

>>15561592
Audfag checking in.

Kolsch is my favorite style of beer hands down, second to Pacific Ales (Stone & Wood is amazing)

>pic related is my favourite beer of all time

I'm living in Ireland at the moment so I love a good pint of Guinness and Heineken or Peroni are pretty good too.

>>15562021
Brit here, I've had Kozel when I went on holiday to Czechia, and also I found a bar in Britain that had it as well

Never had your dark variant though

>>15561842
one of the few but not the only

Abbey ales are the best. All who disagree are UNCULTURED SWINE!

>>15561592
Nice.

>>15561626
I prefer Kirin

>>15561739
What is an "american IPA"? IPA's are completly different from east coast to west.

>>15561741
How strong is that? What's it taste like?

>>15561756
Does that 7000 króna?

>>15561847
Eh...

>>15561884
Interested.

>>15561950
what is that?

>>15562021
I enjoy that one.

>>15562090
I'd try it.

>>15562103
What's the strength of those?

>>15562029
Best beer - post.

T. American who just discovered belgian and abbey ales

>>15562103
I recognize you from another thread. You are an African sperm-swallowing fag. At least try one of the remotely delicious Chimay variants like white or blue, you astonishing fag diarrhoea connissseur.

>>15561592
for me it's Oettinger Bock

>>15562117
The Chimay Doree is a low ABV beer. It's allegedly what the monks consume throughout the day. Only 4.8% ABV.

The 3 Floyds Pale Ale's 6.2% ABV... very fucking hoppy. Tastes a lot like weed.

Embrace your inner homelessness

>>15562135
I prefer Pilsner Urquell tbqh

>>15561592

>>15561592

>>15562251
Is it actually mango-flavoured?

fantastic on chilly days like this

either this, some dogfish head, or some flying dog.

>>15562132
Pisswasser

>>15562135
>>15562220
Basiert

>>15561592
I like it all so long as it's cold awoooooo

>>15561592
>>15561842
why don't people like IPAs
i am just starting to drink and so far i like IPAs because they taste kinda citrusy (at least the ones i've had) which is nice

>>15562479
IPAs can be great but I don't like when they just go insane on the hops to make it extremely bitter

>>15562148
the Canadian homeless brew of choice

>>15561592
Not my go to but a safe choice

>>15561626
Unfathomably Based

>>15561756
I don't know what it is but the first sips are amazing but by the end I'm choking it down

>>15562488
yeah i don't really like very bitter stuff so far either. i don't like stouts (only darker beer i've tried) for this reason, they all seem to be highly bitter

>>15562502
Drink less macrocum and broaden your horizons, friend.

>>15562479
only genuine criticism is that if you drink more than 10 of them you get too much bitterness in your stomach.
The rest is cultural stuff "I don't like hipsters who drink IPA's".
Lets be honest, chantards don't have much leverage to look down on other people, hipsters or not.

>>15562148
>>15562491
In Britain, homeless people (and teenagers, such as myself once upon a time) always used to drink white cider (pic related)

Ususally cheaper than lager, and is quite strong at 7.5%

>>15562148
>>15562491
>>15562525
Actually there is a beer that has a famous reputation for getting homeless people drunk, and that's Carlsberg Special Brew

Used to be 9%, now only 7.5% due to some new laws or something

>>15561691
I prefer sapporo

>>15562525
Yeah we used to get messed up to those molson 10.1s as a teenager. great times. it's still like 6.99 for 2 10% 40 ounce bottles, it's like they want the bums to get hammered for cheap

>>15562479
IPAs are basically the crutch of the shitty beer brewer. It's why ALL the fucking crap microbrews have a ton of IPAs, because they disguise their shit recipes by just dumping a ton of hops in there.
It's the beer equivalent of drowning a meal in hot sauce because you can't cook for shit.
Since all the shitty microbrews have IPAs, all the hipsters who want to drink shitty microbrews to be 'unique like everybody else' drink IPAs.

People who actually like beer drink dark beers, lagers, ales. Basically anything but IPAs. Which by the way, the entire purpose of creating was to disguise spoiled beer. Which is what it's still used for today.

>>15562608

>>15562608
This meme opinion makes me laugh every time it gets parrotted. The idea that hops are used to cover up mistakes in the brewing process is at least 20 years out of date, older than the average 4chan poster.
Try brewing a NEIPA with no prior knowledge and a fuckload of Citra hops. It's an intensely unforgiving and technical process, unlike the brewing of dark beers where the roasted malt flavour overpowers any oxidation or infection. You know nothing about brewing.

>>15562608
>people who actually like beer steer clear of beers flavoured with the main flavouring ingredient of beer

>>15562608
newcastle is the best good taste

>>15562642
Nukie brown tastes like diabetic piss. If you want a proper Newcastle brewery try Wylam.

>>15562665
nigel they don't stock that shit in north america all i've tried is the brown ale and i like it a lot

>>15562608
>>15562631
IPAs are tasty as fuck and you're just seething because you're desperate 4chan contrarians.

Inb4 someone posts a sóyjak quoting me.

>>15562677
Your opinion is wrong, poof. Go and find your local hipster-run craft brewery, I guarantee they have an imperial maple foeder-aged brown ale that is 1000x better.

>>15562642
Newcastle is garbage

>>15562705
I guarantee Newcastle is a far more vibrant and interesting city than wherever you got shat out of.

>>15562608
imagine typing this

>>15562692
You must be from yorkshire because you yap like those little cunt dogs

>>15562608
not being funny, but if you're from the uk you'll know that newcastle brown is pretty .... well.....shit. its like if you take carlsberg, carling, tennants or whatever and add some darker barley to the mix. I'm often baffled by how americans in particular take newcy brown seriously. Particularly since it hasn't even been brewed in the north east since 2010 or the UK since 2016. Its brewed in Holland now.

>>15562735
we get it ur a beer nerd and you're soooo Bri'ish well spare us the lecture

My favorite by a wide margin.

>>15562731
I'm from Devon, but I might as well use my extensive knowledge to tell you that Yorkshire has a tremendous number of excellent breweries. From the classic Timothy Taylor to modern classics like Northern Monk, North Brewing and Saint Mars of the Desert, it is one of the best places in the entire country for diverse and forward-thinking beers.

>>15562770
damn I hope they're paying you to write this tourism copy. Noted

>>15562787
You are a dirty African and know nothing about the ancient white man's tradition of brewing. Go and huff your jenkem instead, subhuman.

It's mostly good. turns out I like...

Jesus Christ develop some standards.

reeee they only sell this in Washington State

>>15561592

>>15562735
Yeah, well you can get it at pretty basic liquor stores and bars in the US. Same with Guinness. Or to a lesser degree Harps, Bass, or sometimes Boddingtons. Those are essentially the only british beers that are really widely available. I don't doubt there are better, but to get them I'd have to spend probably double the price.

>>15562828
I can't, I'm a poorfag. drank mostly natural ice since it's the strongest and cheapest that I can stomach. I'm not 19 anymore, I can't do high-gravity shit like hurricane.

I do prefer liquor but I have to walk a mile, don't usually feel like it. I'll spend more on beer I do like

btw my choice. belgian with good ABV

>>15562822
What a life

This baby is pretty damn good and not that expensive

>>15562148

>>15562320
Very strong mango flavor yes

>>15561739
My dad drinks this like it’s going out of style

>>15563086
Interesting

I wonder if it's actually brewed with mangoes or whether it's just an artificial flavouring added afterwards

>>15563130
Does this just taste like budweiser?

>>15563045
It's a great beer but it's overpriced.

>>15564269
If you can’t differentiate between lagers, then I suppose it might.

>>15561592
At me local costco

>>15563130
Taste like piss, get a German brew

Imagine the mental gymnastics to basically assert that people liking things you don't like must be a conspiracy. Bro, sometimes people like other things that you don't. Just get over it.

Also, pretty sure at this point the average craft beer geek is just a suburban dad. Hipsters seem to be into mixed drinks and wine now.

>>15562718
Newcastle beer isn't even brewed there ya dunce

Based department special

>>15567256
Pale ales generally are tasty.

>>15567282
Problem is that where I live (oregon) people think ipa's are some sort of god-given gift and there's a reputation to overrate shit that's hoppy. Fortunately with this beer I don't think it's trying to impress anyone, and delivers a nice, refreshing aftertaste for those patient enough to enjoy a nice, fairly light beer.

This and Abita strawberry/purple haze

For a mountain sized thirst

>>15562608
Newky brown is awful, maybe at one point it was a passable brown ale but these days it just tastes like dirty water.

every day this week I have bought a 6pack of miller lite and slammed it between getting off work and starting dinner.
I've had worse habits. And it seems manageable enough. but it's throwing my "balance" off. I've had times of more desperate compulsion but I am bored and have been enjoying the taste.

What’s a good widely available German beer? Not some weirdo dark shit, I mean like an American style macro with German quality

>>15562768
Until you try this...

The best beer for the money you can buy in the American south imo. The incredibly easy drinking of a lager and the roasted malt goodness of a porter combines beautifully. Truly the patricians choice of gas station beer.

>>15567876
goddamn anon, a sixpack a night? I can barely finish six in six days, how do you function?

>>15567876

My dad drinks a 6 of natural light and 2 tall boys each and every night and drinks throughout the day as he can at work. Been doing it for as long as I’ve known him and I’m 30+. It’s manageable but it’ll catch up to you eventually.

>>15561592

>>15567892
This is bud ice with an autistic german label

>>15566042
Thats a jew

>>15567929
All I know about this is that it used to be thought of as the hipster beer

I've never had it, I don't think it's available in my country

>>15567926
yeah I would hope not to make it an ingrained habit like that but life is so boring I've hardly got any reason to stop. I go to sleep sober, at least, bac aside, not feeling buzzed. I just have a bad history with substances and choosing to do this nights in a row, well, I'm not "worried" in the sense of real anxiety over it, but I do acknowledge it as a habit I ought not continue indulging long-term.
probably gonna have fried chicken and cheesefries tonight.

>>15567957

Yeah I’m not preaching at you just like I don’t bother preaching at him. Sounds good man probably pair well with a beer

>>15567950
before it was "hipster" beer it was "redneck, hillbilly, trailertrash" beer. when certain postindustrial neighborhoods of large cities started getting colonized by college-graduates-on-food-stamps, the shitty low-effort bars that opened to cater to them would serve these cans as the cheapest thing you could order without getting kicked out by the tattooed-student-waitress-in-a-band-t-shirt who hoped you would buy an IPA and tip her well.

>>15567976
I see.

>>15567976
>>15567929
The entire "PBR is for hipsters" thing comes from one really good marketing executive. He would go from hipster bar to hipster bar and use reverse psychology to make them think it's cool to drink. This alone saved the brewery from bankruptcy and made it more popular than it ever was before. It's brilliant marketing really, especially when you consider it tastes exactly like any other macro American light lager.

>>15561884
love a good blanche

>>15562491
damn reminds me of montreal, never seen any shit like this in BC

>>15568555
Berta has tallboys of molson dry

>>15561592

I'm a Norf lad that drinks bags of cans so I'm not really into poof craft beer, but I got some of these And Union beers for my birthday and they're alright tbqh. It's a Bavarian company I think.

But yeah, just sensibly flavoured beers with a little more hop, none of this retarded chocolate mint or grapefruit flavour or whatever

>>15562029
Got some bad news for you mate, 4 pines got rid of this one and have some bullshit refreshing ale now.

My go-to cheap beer. Simple as.

>>15568300
I'm not a hipster, but I think PBR is quite drinkable for the price.

Pacific ale is not a style, it's just the name of a Stone & Wood beer.

>>15567876
Miller Lite is actually based. I discovered this piss gold just a few weeks ago, no more fancy craft beers, I just drink refreshing sewer piss like miller or pabst. It's good when it's cold.

twice the beer of coors- bud- or natural-light, at half the carbs. at this point, pbr is foul to me.

>>15562768
I prefer the hefeweizen

>>15562822
What German beer from Aldi?

>>15569566
That's fair. Pabst is only drinkable when its literally ice cold, and you have to drink it fast. You can't get rid of that aluminum-corn after taste though.

Bump.

>>15562117
>What is an "american IPA"? IPA's are completly different from east coast to west.
Two hearted is more of an oldschool west coast IPA.

This shit right here.

>>15562608
this, honestly. microbreweries bragging about their WICKED HOPPY BRO IPAs are like a chef bragging about oversalting his food.

>>15562841
I live in Seattle and I never find this on tap either. You can get growlers filled some places.

Sour as shit and delicious

>>1557070
Confirmed faggot

Beer sometimes leaves me bloated and feeling like I've eaten raw dough.
I'll take a dry cider when I want something with a sharper finish.

(Mostly) anything from Belgium.

>>15570691
Deeply retarded analogy. Salt has one specific flavour and property; there are countless varieties of hops that have unique and varied aromas and flavour profiles. A far better comparison would be to herbs and seasoning in general, each of which brings its own properties to the dish. Which seasoning and how much to use is highly subjective. As with many others who don't understand what hops actually do, you seem to have confused "hoppiness" with bitterness.
