Actually, I was not being sarcastic this time. But after this last Saturday, I think I am going to stick with my heavier beers. Beers SHOULD be filling.Quote:

So, it is safe to assume you do not like hoppy beers - perhaps you have an aversion to the bitterness. When I first started getting really interested in beers, IPAs became one of my favorite styles. You have probably figured out that you need to stay away from those (at least for the time being).Quote:

Hmm....Honestly, the only one I've had was used in an Irish Car Bomb at a bachelor party. Dont really remember the flavor too much. :)Quote:

You would probably like Chimay Blue, Lefthand Milk Stout (which you probably cannot get in La), Octoberfests (from various brewers), Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout.
If you like coffee, you might like some of the coffee stouts, as well.
If you want to swing by my tailgate next weekend, you can sample the stuff I bring in.
Yeah I forgot too add, Blue Moon is one of my favorites. I tried a Harvest Moon a few weeks ago and loved it. I might just have to stop by next weekend.Quote:
