Me, and my friend, consumed a lot of EFES Pilsen on our trip to Turkey.
Here are some (about 1/3) of them.

I just tried Lagunitas Censored Ale and it was pretty good. I never had any of their beers before. They are now carrying it in Whole Foods. I also would recommend Hazed and Infused from the Boulder Beer Company.

That is a lot of dead soldiers, commander.

You guys are making me thirsty! I'm gonna have to make a stop on the way home from work. We have grapevine market here in Austin. They have a really decent selection to choose from.

But hopefully new soldiers join in before the next "war"...

Boulder Beer Company just came out with a new "Looking Glass" brew called Cold Hop English-style ale. The label suggests a high gravity interpretation of a recipe from a very well known homebrewers textbook. The recipe may have been for an English-style ale but the use of American High Hops makes the profile, to me, distinctly American-style.

Personally, I have yet to find a domestic craft-brewed hop monster as satisfying and unique as Stone's Ruination IPA.
Also, The Belgian ale XX Bitter from De Ranke might be the new standard in Belgian "double", "triple", "imperial" or "extra" pale ales, aka Belgian Hop Monsters.

I could never acquire the taste for the extremely hoppy beers. I thought Dogfish Head 120min IPA was pretty stout in that regard. XX Bitter sounds rough...

I guess I don't mind one every now and then, but as a regular beer? No way... heh

Got these today. Love Victory and you cannot go wrong with Stone. I had the 60 Minute for lunch with a burger.

It sure does!
Sadly there are only one pub (afaik) in my area that serve Guinness straight from the tap.
Cause canned Guinness is a totally different experience.

Definitely one of my top 10 stouts. I really like Stone Russian stout, Northcoast Old Rasputin stout, Brooklyn Black Chocolate stout and Great Divide Yeti stout. I cannot really pick a favorite as they all taste so good to me. I tend to just enjoy the brew rather than rate them. I know what I like though.
