Define "beer"

Guinness.

Anything less than that is bottled piss, and is fit only for making bratwurst.

And also Sam Smith's Wheat Beer.  Though I think that is pretty much exclusive to North-East England...  soo sucks to be you guys.  it still rocks though, do a taste if you ever get the chance.

Sam Smith's is widely available in the US and is, IMO, generally very good beer.

Guinness, however, is not good at all. Barely even qualifies as "beer".

ECH,
srsly, it's the friggin' Budweiser of stouts people.

I'll drink Guinness, because it makes me look hardcore to the unknowing at bars, but there are better stouts, and porters are typically richer anyway.

Has anyone tried any of the Boulevard products?

They have a nutcracker ale that is seasonal, my friend brough it over for movie night, it was ummm different?  A bit strong and didn't end really well.

I've had their Lunar Ale and their IPA both of which I liked.

The most recent craft brews I had were by Southern Tier. Waaaaay too hoppy for me, but General Stuart adored them. Other than that I have a new addiction to Fuller's London Porter and Dixie Blackened Voodoo. I seemed to have developed a love of dark beer this past few months.

I enjoy a nice cool Auburn City Water every night with my dinner.  Lots of body with a robust aftertaste.

I now know to not drink tap water when I go to Maine.

In Washburn, when it comes out, it looks like somebody already added Alkaseltzer to it.  That can't be good.

But is it brewed in Tadcaster...?

edit:  i looked it up and it is...  pubs that serve it are fairly uncommon here as far as i can tell, so i assumed it was a fairly local phenomenon.
There's a store not far from me that carries Samuel Smith's oatmeal stout, imperial stout, pale ale, and India ale and they are all great.  I'll have to look around and see if I can find their wheat beer.
I will answer ANY prayer for $39.95.*

*Unfortunately, I cannot give refunds in the event that the answer is no.

Guinness is a session ale. It's not SUPPOSED to be heavy.

I love how people assume that all dark beers are heavy. It has to do with the malt used, that's what creates the color. I've had some more filling lighter color ale before.

I don't dislike Guinness because I don't think it's heavy enough (I'm not a fan of heavy beers, actually), I dislike it because it tastes like piss.

You, sir, are obviously an America-hating terrorist kisser.
