missbrz 0 #1 March 30, 2011 since everybody else is doing it... I figured I'd ask my beer question too. I recently started drinking Hefeweizens and fell in love with them. Any good suggestions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warpedskydiver 0 #3 March 30, 2011 That is the Blue Moon Honeymoon Ale right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missbrz 0 #4 March 30, 2011 Blue Moon is delicious and all, but I was hoping for a little more craft beer-esque & less main stream. I'm looking for stuff I haven't tried. Just going to the local beer store & buying a bunch of bottles gets expensive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warpedskydiver 0 #5 March 30, 2011 There used to be a pub here in the Chicago area (if it is still around) that had over 50 beers, ales and stouts on tap. Given the business success of pubs it is probably gone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missbrz 0 #6 March 30, 2011 Yea they have World of Beer down here, which is similar to that. You can even order a "shot" of beer which is only 4 oz. That way you can taste it first. But they kinda jack the prices a bit.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do like some of their other choices though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMichaeli 1 #19 March 30, 2011 see it depends where you live. here in colorado there is a micro brewery a stones throw away in every direction (most micro brews in the nation) but if you can get it i would recommend just going out and trying them all you will find exactly what you like me i like Avery's White Rascal http://www.averybrewing.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=51&Itemid=75 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hokierower 0 #21 March 30, 2011 QuoteTry yuengling(probably spelled wrong) its the oldest brewery in America and a damn tasty beer! That's the worst frickin part about moving to Texas, no Yuengling, not even the specialty stores. Back in school we'd head across the street to our bar of choice on Tuesdays for 22oz Yuenglings for $2. Great stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrmrangers 0 #22 March 30, 2011 If you guys want to pony up the shipping costs I'll ship you 5 packs of yuengling.(the sixth one would be my fee!) Wait , I pull what first? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
