This is boggling my mind.
I hate Peroni. My dad is Italian and I'm fiercely proud of my heritage and love eating Italian food and drinking Italian wine but I want nothing to do with Italian beer. We're just not good at it.
Not to be snobby or judgmental or anything, I don't really care who likes what beer I just find it surprising that people actually like Peroni.

Actually, for a lighter beer, Peroni ain't half-bad. I lived in Naples for four years and I agree, that most Italian beers aren't so good, (Nasty Azzuro and Birra Moretti come to mind), but I think Peroni is a refreshing summer beer. It's more refreshing than Beck's or Lowenbrau. It's damn good on draft. The only reason I seldom drink it now is because it's priced like a premium beer. I ain't paying $9.00 a six-pack for beer that we used to buy for $0.75 a liter....

Went to Brew at the Zoo last night at the DC Zoo. I give my nod to Woodchuck. Try the Woodchuck 809. It's great.
who can suggest a good beer to eat with a home-made burger after a long day where you just wanna relax. a few of my faves are Fat Tire, Yuengling, and some Sam Adams if that helps out. i'm looking for something different really though. any suggestions are welcome besides the obvious bud lite, miller lite, etc...
I just spent half an hour in the beer store trying to decide on what to get. You should do the same, it's really fun. Read the flavor descriptions on the labels and estimate for yourself if it would go well with a burger.
If I'm just going to throw a suggestion out there, based on what you're familiar with, I'd suggest the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Classy but very "swigable", very refreshing. I suggest the SNPA for most people who are just beginning to delve in to the world of craft beer.

Hey man, I bought a six-pack of Loose Cannon this weekend, it was the first time I'd ever had it and I loved it. I think there have already been a couple reviews on it, but it gets an 'A' in my book. I took a few of them in a cooler kayaking yesterday and they hit the spot like none other.
Heavy Seas is a kick ass brewery. That Loose Cannon is so chill and yummy. Relatively low bitterness for an IPA, sweet sweet sweet malt. Their Small Craft Warning is a crazy Pilsner. It's like some outrageous stuff DFH would make. Also, if you can find Heavy Seas Hang Ten Hefewizen Doppelbock (I think it's only around for summer) - you're in for something beyond outrageous my friend. I've only seen it in 22oz bombers though.
Tonight I got a six pack of Flying Dog In-Heat Wheat Hefeweizen. Very heavy on the wheat, tastes like pumpkin. Really like it, think it's underrated. Usually Hefeweizens are too Lager-ish for my liking, but this one is dank. Like it more than Sierra Nevada's.

Nice, I'll hit up my local liquor stores and see what other Heavy Seas stuff I can find.
Stella,Dos Equis,Newcastle or Bass pale ale for name brands,but that's not real different
You want different go for a stout, bock or black lager
Tried some new ones
Rahr&sons Ugly Pug black lager
bitter chocolate and coffee,very drinkable even in the summer....might try some of their other offerings
St Arnolds Amber ...unimpressive
St Arnolds summer pils...crisp,highly carbonated,rather hoppy....sweet malt.....not my thing but well done

Sierra Nevada is good one. Hmmmm. Next time I'm in Evanston Wyoming,I may have to make a stop and do some shopping for some hard to find around here beers.![]()
Big fan of Sierra Nevada. They make a number of beers that are really good. Torpedo is a really good IPA. I am not a huge porter fan but I really like theirs. Their seasonals are really good. I try to pick up a 6 of Tumbler and Celebration when they come out. I definitely look forward to Big Foot being released every year.
