Beer was delicious. (1 Viewer)

The best part about those who complain about craft beer is the shining inferiority complexes. :lmao:

Like what you like, validation is the world's worst drug.

Btw, beer is for the landscaper, the iron worker, the hard working American.  It is not for taste tests.  Why are there macro beers?  Because they other stuff sucked they came out on top.  So I give you the middle finger as I drink my macro beer.  Suck my bottlecaps.

As a Belgian, I'm insulted by this. Keep drinking your American piss water. 

 
The beer snob that only likes mass produced flavorless beer? Are there burger snobs that only eat McDonalds? Are there music snobs that only listen to 90s rap rock? I just don't get having a dislike for American industry that is built on the local private ownership, community, innovation, etc. Bells and Trillium are much closer to the real American ideal than Budweiser (isn't even an American owned company).

Not a fan.  It sounds like a beer I would really enjoy so I've ordered it several times, but each time I try it it tastes green to me - not quite under-fermented but not quite fully conditioned.  I feel like it would be way better if they gave it a couple more weeks before serving.

ETA: only had it at the brewery.  If it was out at a bar, it might actually be way better.

Well I'm sorry but you're just wrong  :P

 
I'll drink the #### out of some Miller Lite (as I'm crushing a bunch now). I'll shoot some Jack. Hammer some Smirnoff triple distilled and OJ. Lather myself in a properly made Korbel old fashioned. Snort some Captain and diet.

But I can also love and appreciate the #### out of a BCS, Jai Alai, 4 Roses SB, etc etc  you get the point.

Who gives a ####?

But seriously, eff gin. It sucks

You don't think different beers taste differently?

If they do, then some would obviously taste better than others.  "Delicious" is an adjective for something high on the taste scale.  

ROCKET SCIENCE

I look for two things in a beer:

- it's cold

- it gets me drunk

the rest is just window dressing

Lil Sumpin' Extra is your best friend. Tastes good (not delicious), and 8.7% alcohol content is super delightful. High alcohol beer might be the best thing ever. Sooooo much better drinking a six-pack of high content instead of a twelve pack of pisswater.

That said, I'm ready to get back on the @Otis fitness wagon. sRcOrAAeeRch!!

Okay, I get you.  Have you ever been at a bar with your friends and take a sip, and said, yee hawww that was delicious.

They would beat me up and hopefully kill me.

Not if I am drinking Miller Lite, but if we were at a place with various craft beers we were trying for the first time it is entirely possible...the delicious part, not so much the yee hawww part...unless we were 10 or so beers in, then pretty much anything goes.

 
Drink what you personally enjoy, obviously.

That said, I’ve heard “I hate craft beer” from many people who just hadn’t tried the right stuff. Don’t jump into the deep end of the pool with DIPAs or BA Imperial Stouts right away — start with a local Pilsner or a good American Pale Ale.

No matter where you are in the country, I’d bet that there is someone making good beer locally at this point, and it’s generally good and important to support local businesses for many reasons IMO.

Plus, freshness matters with beer, and you might be surprised at how much better beer tastes when it hasn’t been sitting in a hot semi trailer for a week and then on a store shelf for a few months.

 
I went to a recent homebrew competition where all brewers had to incorporate chocolate.  There was a lot of beer there that was delicious.  The winner made what he called "muffin top".  It was a British based grain-bill, so lots of biscuit notes.  It was just a bit on the sweet side, and lots of great chocolate and vanilla.  NoDa (local Charlotte brewery) brewed up his recipe.  My entry was an Orange-chocolate sweet stout that thought came out really good too.

ETA: if you go to NoDa and try their version of Muffin Top, Steve H. said that he liked his version better than NoDa's.  I haven't tried the pro-beer yet but the amateur version was really, really good.

I wouldn't want a beer I wouldnt describe as delicious. Therefore, I stay away from macros. Far, far away.

I like a lot of different types of beer, though rarely drink it anymore because I'm never going back to being a disgusting fatass. But I like stout, some IPAs, ambers, and a good German pilsner, to name a few. 

But I've noticed occasionally Miller Lite tastes surprisingly good. I'm not enough of a beer snob to describe the flavor, and it doesn't happen often enough that I would order it if better options are available. Usually it tastes very ordinary, and sometimes offensively bitter. But maybe 1 in 20 has a nice, subtle, well balanced flavor that I would expect to find in a better brand. Anyone share this experience?
