Beer anyone? Let's see what is in your fridge!

[Liv2RideHard]

I am always looking for new tasty beverages to try. Let's see what y'all are drinking at the moment. The hoppier the better! :beer:

[Jeff N.]

If you're into "hoppy", you ain't gonna get it better than Stone Ruination IPA. :beer:

[Dave B]

beautiful. I haven't had a drink since the first lady got pregnant in June. Just out of respect for her having to give it up.

two weeks and I can induldge again. Some nice wit or heffe sounds amazing right now!

[Gummee]

Only thing I have right now are a pair of Double Bastard bottles.

Drank the rest!

I have a few McNeil's pullman porter and blonde bombshell's and some Ipswich brewing sampler. Good stuff.

[tiretrax]

Shiner family reunion - a selection of thier limited run brews. Always good stuff.

[Matt-H]

That Breakfast Stout is BIG...and great.

Right now, Founders variety case in the fridge. I'm usually not a big fan of variety cases, but Centennial IPA, RyePA, Porter and Dirty Bastard Scotch Ale works for me.

these pics makes me want to restart the beer can collection I had as a kid, only this time around it will be more fun being able to drink em dry!

For a good laugh, check out tobp.com (they rate practically every beer under the sun) and read what they say about Corona! Jeff N.

Founder can do no wrong.

[oldpotatoe]

I guess some of us resemble the people that ride sram, when it comes to beer in the fridge. 'Some' of us just drink pretty normal, not hoppy(yuk), not dark, not belgium-esque, not ipa, not microbeer, beer..but it's like some 'other' things, tastes good but nobody wants to hear about it..

Like some mainstream euro(Dutch, German, Czech, Italian) beers, canadian, mexican.

Dark, hoppy, stoutie, no thanks....

[soupless]

Founder can do no wrong.

Between Founders beer and MadCap coffee, Grand Rapids is really showing what it can do.

I love your selection of New Belgium! Still can't buy it here in Pa. but I got some in Maryland over the weekend. If you haven't had New Belgium Snowy Day I would recommend it.

I am in the same boat in Florida. Can't get it down here either. I reload whenever I travel and bring it back with me. I just polished off the rest of my Fat Tire and Hoptober. Hopefully NB will start distributing down here one day...

[gdw]

The stocks are getting low. I'm down to a Hibernation Ale from Great Divide, some weird gluten-free Tweason'Ale from Dogfish, and a couples bottles of Belgium ale.

A BIG +1 on the tricerahops IPA, I had it the last time I was in Seattle, that stuff rocks. No where to be found in FL though, moving to Vancouver in the summer hopefully I can get some up there.

[bikerboy337]

Cisco- Wales Tale Pale Ale
Harpoon - Cider
Harpoon - Leviathain IPA (my favorite)
Michelob Ultra
Trinity IPA (local Prov. brewery)

I should not have opened this one. Haven't drank since hurting my hip--have still put on 10 pounds. cleared to stand on pedals this week though so hope to start losing the weight I've put on. I have several 90 min IPA (dogfish) in my fridge, waiting, waiting patiently ..must wait

Shouldn't be hard to find in Vancouver. If you haven't had anything from Oskar Blues, I highly recommend everything they make. Their IPA, Red and Stout are delicious.

[kong79]

Haven't had a beer in the fridge for 22 years, since number 1 son was born. Tried to set a good example for the kids. I do like an occasional Fat Tire Ale when we go out though.

[alancw3]

i have had the opportunity to drink almost ever beer out there. so my favorites that are usually in my refrig:

best light beer (3.2g carbs or less): miller lite
best light beer (over 3.2g carbs) sam adams light, although has more carbs and colories than many regular beers. beer marketing laws! go figure.
best everyday value drinking beer: pabst blue ribbon. yes right pabst!!!
best stout: guiness
best everyday value priced dark: yuengling black and tan
best extraordinary: chimay grand reserve it is almost like port wine. so so so good. probably the best beer i have ever tasted. and the cost is ultra high.
best ultra strong beer: grimbergen triple. if i remember 17.59% alcohol content. i drank six if these once and you talk about the room spinning!!! it's also available in a double at about 12% alcohol

[BumbleBeeDave]

some Molson Ice, some Long Trail ale, and some Heinekin Lights . . .

BBD

[Riders120]

Try the Southern Tier Imperial Ale. Very hippy and almost 10% abv

[peanutgallery]

Troegs is my local favorite

When I travel I always try the local brew. I'm in Belize now so it's Belikin and Light house ale.

Here's a small sample of what I've got on deck.

[Louis]

I currently have three bottles in the fridge:

Unibroue "La Fin du Monde"

Brouwerij Huyghe "Delirium Tremens"

De Proefbrouwerij "Zoetzuur Flemish Ale"

Just finished at the Super Bowl XLVI party: Weihenstephaner "Korbinian"

The Zoetzuur is new to me (a gift from my sister) so I don't know how it will be. The other three are some of my favorites and I can recommend them all with the highest praise.

[Louis]

best extraordinary: chimay grand reserve it is almost like port wine. so so so good. probably the best beer i have ever tasted. and the cost is ultraa high.

Dude, let's party. :beer:

In my book this is at the top of a list of other very good beers. The one by which all others are measured.

[corsaspeciale]

nothing new, Red Stripe and Dos Equis amber.

[thinpin]

Hoppy, mmmm ...too hoppy is a sign (IMHO) of an adolescent brewer. Going nuts on one taste. Too hoppy lacks balance.
A couple of my favourites from Down Under. These guys get the balance right.

Steveo knows what he is doing. Not a big fan of the Bruery, but Black Tuesday is outstanding. Then the Firestone Parabola and Russian River Temptation? :beer:

[dream_theater]

My favorite beers-

New Belgium 1554
Anderson Valley Amber Ale
Stone Self Righteous Ale
Arrogant Bastard
Beer Republic Pete's Brown Ale

I love amber and brown ales. If anybody has some recommendations I'm always open to try new ones!

[soulspinner]

these pics makes me want to restart the beer can collection I had as a kid, only this time around it will be more fun being able to drink em dry!


Just had the celebration at my buddies. Love it. On a Southern tier IPA kick also now. Its 2 for 1 pint night at my fave pub tonite with my riding buddies. Best night of the week. :beer:

[forrestw]

One bottle of Russian river Consecration left from my September CA trip, to be finished off soon.

http://russianriverbrewing.com/brews/consecration/

The Pliny long since finished, my last bottle of that was outstanding.

[Kevan]

I'm back to visiting Flying Dog and their Raging Bitch. It'za Belgium blonde and IPA blend. Very tasty.

[gomango]

Surly "Abrasive" will be coming home in a quantity when available.

Surly has "always" availables, and then seasonals.

This one should be out anyday. Hop(e) I don't miss it. :)

[hookookadoo]

Men's Journal this month(has a motorcycle on the front) has a 4-5 page article on craft beers and a few recommendations in each category. It has a neat fold-out which shows the beer spectrum from a pilsner to a stout. Their website might have the same article - i'm too lazy to check but you can.

I am a wheat beer guy. In the wheat craft range I like Bell's Oberon and Allagash White.

[tele]

couple of mix packs from local NH breweries Shipyard and Woodstock with a Dogfish for good measure:

[Liv2RideHard]

Quickly became a favorite on our last MAN trip into the mountains of western NC. MAN Trip = mountains, mountain bikes, beer (lots of it), Mexican food and bbq and a cabin in the woods. I lost track of how many handles of Pisgah Pale Ale we polished off. I highly recommend it. This is making me thirsty...

[dream_theater]

^ that makes my mouth water just looking at it

[Jack Brunk]

Dogfish Head 90 IPA
Dogfish Head Midas Touch
Dogfish Head Pala Santo Marron Ale
Flying Dog Brewery Double flying dog IPA
Pliny the Elder IPA(Growler)
Double Hercules IPA Great Divide Brewing Co

[Liv2RideHard]

If I could only get it down here in Florida. Pliny the Elder...so yummy. We are really deprived of some of the best beer down here. Cigar City Brewing has been helping fill that void though. Y'all should check them out if you can find their adult beverages near you.

[fschillaci]

Ommegang Three Philosophers and Smithwicks :beer:

Was lucky enough to just get one of these :hello: :beer:

[eippo1]

Not to sidetrack too much, but what do you guys drink that have severe acid reflux? I used to drink lots of IPA's, but unfortunately have had to cut that out completely. I find lagers seem to be okay, but I really am not a huge fan of lighter beers except for Stella.

Anyone else dealing with this and have any suggestions?

[gdw]

"Was lucky enough to just get one of these"

Westvleteren 12?

[Steve in SLO]

I'm moving a pic of my Valentines Day gift here because now these are in my fridge, along with Red Hook Longhammer IPA, Lagunitas IPA, Deschutes Mirror Pond and Firestone Velvet Merlin.

[steveo]

"Was lucky enough to just get one of these"

Westvleteren 12?

Yup.

[gdw]

Nice, I've got some plus a few Blonds in the wine rack.

[Litespeed_Mike]

The Alchemist Brewery Heady Topper (Waterbury VT)

Only the best from the land of covered bridges and maple syrup:

http://www.alchemistbeer.com/

Seriously. This is one of the best darned beers I've EVER TASTED. It's in a very limited weekly production (about 500 cases or so) and only sold locally.

Currently scores 100 on Beer Advocate with 530+ reviews.

Sweet, I heard you can only buy it at the abbey that brews it, is that true?

[Matt Barkley]

Just saw Sierra Nevada's 2012 Bigfoot this week! Whoah! :beer:

[gdw]

Mine came directly from the abbey but I believe you can buy it online occasionally. I remember seeing ads for 12 in the past.

[swPArider]

Troegs is my local favorite

Along with this came a few bottles from Cantillon and Drie Fonteinen.

I don't have that particular issue, but I have found that beer and I don't get along too well of late. And get this...my wife says I snore even louder if I drink a dinner pint when out for a Friday night burger.

I've pretty much gone to red, enjoying only an occasional evening's bottle of suds.

[Fixed]

this is in my box
cheers :beer:

+1
Tried it first time while riding in Hill Country.

[ahumblecycler]

Waiting for my honey to come home from another week of business travel, I have been chilling a Boulevard Chocolate Ale :)

I need a bigger fridge. That's only what's IN the fridge :banana:
