One beer for the rest of your life. What would it be?

[hogleg]

Try to keep it brewery/micro brewery available to the public. Trying to learn some new beers. Not hear about your badass homebrew. I won't say any names. GRANT. lol
 
Try to give a description of why you like it. And when you drink it ie: summertime, wintertime, daytime, nighttime.
 
Thank you for your participation.

Cigar City's Marshall Zhukov RIS - where it all started for me.

A deal with the devil

Old elephant foot by Tampa brewery. It's my favorite beer,plain and simple.

Lagunitas Maximus. I like hops over malt. Better in warm weather, since it is so refreshing to me. Not a meal in a bottle like a heavy stout, so if you feel like having a couple, you're not full.

Available in most fine beer stores, so it's accessible to the masses.

You don't know how true that is! Sold 50% to Heineken today.

Going global then. The secret is officially out. Hope they don't water it down...

Just expanded. Apparently the bottling/packaging side is even bigger.
 
Lots of interesting discussion, because apparently it's a great place to work w/ the kinds of benefits that don't normally exist in corporate owned places (fully union, free daycare, bring your dog to work etc) ...
 
Interesting ...

Hoegaarden. I just like it. Even better salted and cold enough to ice over a bit

I've personally watched them nearly double in size and production every year since they moved to Petaluma.

 

[SmokenFire]

Sweetgrass - Grand Teton Brewery
 
Hop Sun - short run imperial hefe (I think?) from Southern Tier Brewery
 
Oberon - Bells  (Don't like Larry, love that beer forever)
 
Little Sumpin - Lagunitas
 
Little Yella Pils - Oscar Blues
 
Depends on the day....

The heart wants what the heart wants. Love me some MKE brewing company stuff, too, but I don't know how widespread the reach is.

 

[Ozzy2001]

What a difficult question to answer.  I will really have to think about this one.  Its like asking which of my 3 kids is my favorite lol
 For Summer, I love the Summer Solstice from Anderson Valley.  I really like their Barney Flatts Oatmeal Stout as well.  Blue Moon is always good if I go out and don't see anything else that appeals to me.  Any of the Dogfish Head beers hit the spot especially the 90min.  Its just so expensive.

 

[Pariah]

Alaskan Oatmeal Stout or Blacktooth Saddle Bronc Brown.

Little Yella Pils - Oscar Blues

Since you mentioned Oskar Blues...
(On topic) Pinner or Dale's Pale Ale for me
(Off topic) anybody had any of the Oskar Blues beer-infused sauces?

 

[hogleg]

Yea the little yella pils has peaked my interest. Also I would trust my palate's life with Dru.
 
You can off-topic and highjack my threads all you want, I don't mind. Just don't tell Salsa Lady I said that.
