I really like Liberty Ale. Pacifico is pretty decent for a Mexican lager.Quote:

Guinness....the verdict is still out. Didn't have much of a flavor to me.??
Yeah, Guinness is kind of a generic tasting stout to me; nothing really compels me to order it anymore. I greatly prefer the imperial stouts (such as the Russian Imperial Stouts). Way more flavor. Also really love the coffee stouts, but they are also usually an imperial stout with coffee solids added.Quote:

I would really like to try Guinness, ice-cold, on draft(preferably in Ireland). Have you ever tried Dogfish Head's Coffee stout? I was looking around on their website and was intrigued by that one.Quote:

I prefer Terrapin Coffee Oatmeal Imperial Stout, Founder's KBS, and Great Divide's Espresso Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout. The first two are seasonals. The Terrapin will be available soon (I have some in stock), and the Founder's will be available in February.Quote:

I love the AS Liberty. Pacifico is decent- if there is such a thing as a decent Mexican beer besides Negro Modelo. Shiner Blonde is on my list as a semi-frequent lawnmower. Anchor Steam is good with some heavy shellfish dishes or lighter pasta. Couldn't give a crap about Guinness. I'm all about room-temp MOA Noir as far as the dark beers go. I have found nothing better to pair with Chili or Gumbo than the MOA Noir besides maybe Young's Double Choc Stout or maybe a well brewed Total Disorder Porter (Dallas/Ft Worth area micro).Quote:

It is a matter of personal preference. Serving it warmer will open up the toasty malt flavor a bit more. Some bars serve it pretty cold, some serve it warmer. I prefer them NOT ice cold.Quote:

Good commercials on the radio...
For you beer snobs.

It is MUCH better at their brewery in Dublin (really anywhere in Ireland) than it is over here. I am no connoisseur though.Quote:
