I didn't much care for that one personally. Though I did see a new one by them I want to try. Forgot the name of it however.

Well, I think I officially don't like Belgians. Tried Duvel last night, along with Chimay the other day... not my cup of tea. They have a distint taste that I can't put my finger on (the yeast maybe?) but I just don't like it.

But it's a pale ale. LOL, I'm always down to try something, but I'm more of a lager, ale, porter, stout kind of guy.

I may have to look for a new pilsner now that it's getting hotter outside though.

Pale ale's are great, you just haven't had the right ones, do you like Magic Hat #9? if so, you will like this one.

Magic Hat is ok IMO, but it's not something I go out and seek. If someone has one to offer I won't turn it down, but if I'm at the store I won't buy it. The reason I don't like pale ales, is they are hoppy and bitter. I'm more of a malt kind of guy myself. And prefer darker beers in general.

I would have left with all of it. LOL, except that Kentucky stuff you mentioned... not at $24 a 4 pack. I might have picked up a single just to try however.

it's unfortunate that PBR has become the official beer of hipsters. (not talking about you lambzie)

I see PBR and think of Cubs bars in Wrigleyville here.

I do enjoy some good Goose Island stuff.

Who are you to judge, so what if I like the crisp taste of PBR, the smooth aroma of Parliament Lights and listening to bands that you've probably never heard of

But no really, they love that shit... which sucks because it's always a nice/cheap fallback beer.

Today at work I was waiting on a few guys and they did red monk shots, St. Bernardus ABT 12 topped with St. Louis Framboise. The guy then was asked about a fruity beer so suggested Wells banana bread. He wanted another banana beer so brought him a bottle of Chapeau Banana which is a lambic. They started thinking about the Red monks and thought "yellow monk" they had the ABT 12 with a topper of the Chapeau. It was delicious!!
