Now i'd like to try the Dark Matter one, just because of the sticker ! I like it lol

 

Elektra, do you got more beers with a nice design such as this one?

Do I ever!

 

The person I've been dating for a while really really loves this beer:

 

Name: Fat Tug IPA

Origin: Victoria B.C. Canada (just coincidence that it's from the same place)

Punch:7.0

Yay or nay?:  It's locally the IPA that you compare all other IPAs to.  It's pretty darn hoppy, so much so that I'm not a huge fan.  For the craft beer enthusiast, this is a must try!  Intensely hoppy!  (Pretty much everyone but me loves this)

i like the hoppy taste lol but Thane not so much !

again the sticker is pretty cool !

and i like blond beers ^.^

 

Name: Martin's IPA triple hop flower

Origin: Belgium

Punch: 6.9%

Yay or nay?: YAY! Smooth aftertaste, not too hoppy, not too bitter. Good mix in tastes and flavor.

 

Name: Riley's Hard Root Beer

Info: Smooth Root Beer taste but alcoholic

Type: Hard Root Beer

Origin: Riley's Brewing Company in Madera, Ca

Punch: 5.0% ABV

Yay or nay?: Definitely a yay, almost a pure root beer taste and great to use in making adult ice cream floats.

I just saw this in the shops today and I'd never had it, so I thought I'd give it a try.

 

Name: Gage Roads' Atomic American Pale Ale (dry-hopped and unfiltered, according to the label)

Punch: 4.7%

Yay or nay: Eh. Bit of a meh beer. It's ok, but not my favourite. It's a bit lighter than I usually go for, so it's a good summer beer if you're more into lagers but happen to be drinking pale ale or something. Cool aquatic themed label though.

<.< I don't drink beer actually lol 

Name: Caulier Tripel

Punch: 9%

Yay or nay: nay. Don't get me worng, the taste isn't too bad.... but perhaps it's because it's sugarfree and there is just something missing. Doesn't taste like a strong beer at all, so that's kinda a buzzkill.

 

Name: Gordon Finest Scotch Highland Ale

Origin: UK/Belgium

Punch: 8%

Yay or nay? YAY! An absolute must try for beer drinkers. Smooth taste for a ruby beer, no strong aftertaste. Absolutely wonderful to drink.

 

Name: Piraat

Origin: Belgium

Punch: 10.5%

Yay or nay? YAARRR. Wow... if you like strong beers that do not taste too strong, but still pack a punch, this is one to have. Smooth drink, pleasant aftertaste.. Something to try *nods*

sooooooo, is this a 'Band Only' thread?

Nope, feel free to join in!

Fantastic! Thank you, for I think I have found the promised land and it is good.

 

I am by no definition of the word an aficionado on beer but I am certainly a fan. lol I live in Buffalo, New York and our micro brew scene is just exploding. There are SO many to try and I am more than up to the challenge, The only thing I am not a fan of with a majority of the brew coming out is the hops. I am not anti-hop! I just prefer roasted or malted barley more.  Least favorite beer would be any IPA and most enjoyed would be reds, porters and stouts.  It seems a majority of brew coming out is HEAVY on the hops. Really hoping it'll swing back to things a bit darker.

 

But, all that being said, lately I;ve not been able to stop drinking this.

Brewed by: 
Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu 
Germany | website

Style: Hefeweizen 

Alcohol by volume (ABV): 5.00% 

 

If you're a fan of Whitbeers, Belgian Whites or Heffees I would strongly recommend this. The citrus and spice aren't prominent with this brew. They definitely enhance the taste but not without drowning out the flavor of the brew. Light and refreshing. Excellent for bright sunny days and relaxing on a patio for a brunch. Excellent day drinking beer that doesn't fill you up. Light and fizzy carbonation. The day after?. . . . ehhh, was a little rough. lol Maybe it's just my age and my inability to accept my age and drinking like I were 21 again that lead to it but I was hurtin. lol  I would give it a. . . . Yay, is it? Definitely a yay

Hmm... i might even be able to find that here. I know that I'm privileged living in Belgium with all the awesome beers, but Germany isn't far either  

here's an excellent one for you all:

 

 

Name: Bocq Gauloises Fruits Rouges (Red Fruit)

Origin: Belgium

Punch: 8.2%

Yay or nay?  YAY!! Best suited for warm summer days, this is a very nice, fruity beer. Not TOO sweet, nicely balanced, and with enough punch left. Awesome beer that I'd make anybody try that would visit my place

*grabs mills and ties him to a chair*

 

 

hehehe you're staying here, sir !

 

 

Name: Dark Matter

Origin: Victoria B.C. Canada

Punch:5.3 

Yay or nay?:  I like it.  You'd think it's a stout, but I don't think it really fits,   It's dark in colour, but too light in flavour to be a stout,  and too creamy to be a lager.  I'm tempted to call it a dark ale.  It's unique, rich, and tasty. 

 

 

 

That looks like it's made for me. We have A LOT of Canadian import here bein at the foot of the peace bridge. I will definitely have to look for it. I agree that it doesn't really look like a stout. Seems more of an Amber or Brown ale. Maybe even close to a red. Reminds me of a Smithwicks (Smitticks pronunciation)

 

 

 

hehehe you're staying here, sir !

 

Keep this up and I may think you're startin to like me. ;)

now what you would want to think that ?

Yay or nay? Nay, though that is only because I am not a fan of really hoppy beers... I told Zail about this thread so if he makes it onto the site maybe he'll write a better review of this one for those of you who like hoppy tasting beers.

Guess today was national beer day in the US... Well in that case it deserves a song!
