Stone IPA, Rudrich's Red Seal Ale, or Sierra Nevada's IPA. Either one will do for me.

Anything from Berkshire brewing company (deerfield MA), or Gritty McDuffs (Freeport Maine). If I must, Sam Adams. Ales, or preferably and IPA.

Shiner Bock is the second best beer in the world, though it pains me to say that.

The best beer I ever had was at a weinershnitzel shop in Little Rock. They had a beer called Kriek and it was a black cherry flavored lambic. It tasted like Kool-Aid and I loved it, but just could not shell out $36 for a 6-pack in them days. That platygirl stuff was GREAT!

�They had a beer called Kriek and it was a black cherry flavored lambic.

Term,
Kriek is the word for cherry(in Flemish I think)

Lambics are a unique and delicious brew from Belgium(Flanders region) The name "lambic" is derived from the unique yeast that ferments it.

They are unique in that no yeast is added to the beer. They place open casks full of the stuff in barns with louvred walls. �The wind blows through depositing airborne yeast into the casks. Voila!! Top fermentation commences!! Once fermented the beer is aged for an additional 1 to 2 years. Add your favorite fruit (kriek=cherry, peche=peach, framboise=raspberry[my fav], pomme=apples, cassis=black currants) a little extra fermentation happens for bubbles and your done.

Any domestic that claims to be a lambic isn't.

Expensive, but the honeys LOVE it!

Peach Lambic ROCKS.

Brewman · « **Reply #11 on:** May 23, 2006, 08:33:34 pm »

I haven't tried any of that style yet, but I know that it's quite possible to obtain a bottle of the real lambic, and culture the yeast, which as hymbaw said, is the secret to this style of beer.
Too many beer types, not enought spare time.

Stone Brewing Co. Arrogant Bastard Ale.

If anybody likes hefeweizen's you have to try a blue moon. also a Shiner hef that uses nitros instead of co2. I just finished my keg of bluemoon and we started on the shiner hef

Micah,
If you like Blue Moon (made by Coors to mimic a Belgian) do yourself a favor and pick up some Belgian imports. You will never look at Blue Moon the same! Find a specialty beer retailer and they can guide you to the best for you(there are hundreds of 'em). Or maybe not, they are expensive.
