I really don't like bitter or alcohol tastes.

So, you don't like beer that tastes like beer  :roll:

yeah, basically. which is why i don't drink it most of the time. there are some beers that taste better to me, so i drink those rarely, and beers from microbreweries without the sulfur or whatever they put in it I can sometimes take the more bitter, hopsy beers, but for the most part, not really my thing.

Try Innis and Gunn.  Doesn't taste bitter (if anything, it tastes creamy) and doesn't taste very alcoholic (despite having 8.5%), and is a damn good beer.

thanks cain, i will certainly do so at the first opportunity that presents itself. sounds like an interesting brew!

edit: hmm, according to their website they may only have a distributor in New York? darn. I'll have to do some local hunting and see.

Exactly how long did you intend to keep this from me?

Cain speaks truth with Innis and Gunn.  It's a purely delicious treat.

There was a beer, two years ago now, a limited release from Stone, that was the end all and be all of chocolate and, really, stouts in general.  I don't know why they stopped making it, as I still have to name it as my favorite beer ever.  Bitter Chocolate Oatmeal Stout.  Sweet fuck how I miss that beer.

My favorite has been, and still is, the Terrapin Coffee Oatmeal Imperial Stout aka Wake n Bake. Always looking for a stout to top that.

Kai- try Swamphead's Midnight Oil
It is comparable in tastiness as is Hunahpu (Marshal Zhukov's imperial stout aged over chilis, vanilla and cocoa nibs, the Zhukov is also good) by Cigar City Brewing

Boulder Porter is nice.

I really like the Unibrau micro brewery in canada. They make Moudite and La Fin Du Monde,
which i've only ever seen in a 2 pint fuck-your-shit-up bottle.

We have those in 12oz bottles sold in 4 packs

delirium nocturnum and le guillotine.  both awesome.  Delirium beers used to banned in your ridiculous "country"



And now it's on tap at every decent bar in NY and in bottles at the only 2 good bars in Orlando


I am currently drinking Weyerbacher's "Tiny"
It's a belgian style imperial stout.
It definitely tastes like belgian yeast in a stout. It's pretty damn good. Sold only in 750mL

GRIMBERGEN. :gif-of-someone-salivating-to-death:

blonde, double or tripel?

I still gotta try out, say Grimbergen next to Leffe next to whatever other Belgian beers I can find of the same "number". Cause frankly I couldn't really say what's the difference between a Leffe Tripel and a Grimbergen Tripel.

Except for the doubles, I don't really like those so I wouldn't care enough. Blonde or tripel for me. Or maybe I should, in the case I happen find a double that I do really enjoy.

I'm not a fan of Grimbergen, personally.

I'm not a big fan of brewdog, though i'd like to try the TNP and STB. One of their beers that I tried was either way too heavy on the simcoe hops or they did something wrong to them cause it smelled, I kid you not, just like dog poop.
