    Yep, it is awesome stuff. Occasionally they have it on tap.

    I had some IPA last night and it was good, Samual Smith I believe.

    It took me a while to realize the difference between Lagers and Ales and now I realize, I prefer Ales. Too me, Ales just taste more interesting than Lagers.

    Not all lagers suck. There are actually some killer German lagers out there. For domestic microbrew, you might try New Belgium Shift Lager.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

    Almost anything New Belgium puts out is great, and on top of that you can find it throughout most of the US now. Bonus points for being brewed in my hometown.

    I like Magic Hat. My favorite is probably #9. They describe it as "Not So Pale Ale"...

    Then your pallet would lean towards fruity or hoppy? We all have our preferences. I personally love a hugely malty, crisp, clean nicely hopped lager.

    I'm not much of a beer guy, but hefeweizen and wheat beers are what I go for because they lay off the hops and just focus on that malty and bready taste. Franziskaner is one the few beers I enjoy indulging in; I don't have to pretend to like it. I have a very low toleration for hops; I can't even finish a bottle of Samuel Adams, and that's supposed to be one of the better beers. I just steer clear from IPAs. All I need is a scotch that burns.

    I know here, Yuengling Traditional Lager is extremely popular.
    Though I wouldn't be surprised if a good chunk of the hype comes from the fact that it's hard to get without somebody going to the east coast and bringing it back with them.

    No Hype about Yuengling...it's a great beer and when you're close to PA it's cheap as can be.

    Yuengling is my go-to beer for everyday drinking, both at home and at the bar. Tastes great, easy to drink all night, and it's relatively inexpensive (especially on base).
