Q: Can you put a lime or any other fruit in your beer?

A: No, fruit is completely off limits in beer. If one were to put fruit in a beer, they might as well put a little umbrella in it and call it a "beera colada". Man Law: "Don't Fruit the Beer."

You fail, pipski.

Probably be Henry Weinhard's or a Killian's Irish Red.. I don't have many beers under my belt but those are my favorites.. I'm more of a hard liqour type of guy.

That's actually also from the German Purity laws of brewing.

Agreed, but it does taste a little less like cat piss with the lemon in it, and I figure the Vitamin C will help with the scurvy!

Don't forget a wedge of orange for the Widmer Hefeweizen.

As a rule, I'll try any beer once, but I just cannot abide the cheap macro stuff. Luckily, there's a local brewpub that has $2 pints on Mondays, so I don't have to.
My personal favorites are all dark - Guinness was my first love (the imported extra stout was the first beer I ever had), so stouts generally rock my face off (Samuel Smith / Rogue / Young's / Schlafly). New Belgium 1554 was my favorite in college, but I haven't had it in a long while. They also make La Folie, one of the craziest beers I've ever tasted (Belgian Sour Brown, they called it ?). A well made porter hits the spot from time to time as well; Great Divide St. Bridget's is my benchmark for it. Others I'm fond of include Newcastle Brown, Rogue Hazelnut Brown, Heineken Dark, Warsteiner Dunkel, McEwan's Scotch Ale, Sam Adams Black Lager, and Shiner Bock.

Maybe off topic, but in lieu of getting a tree for Christmas, I usually just deck out a keg instead (or two, or
three...).

Lager - Kronenburg/Stella Artois
Ale - London Pride but I haven't tried many yet.

Keystone has take the place of naty light and the beast.

I swear this convo has been started many times before. My absolute fav is still Big River Honey Brown or the Stout. I never make it out of the place without emptying my pockets for as much as I can drink and still walk out.

Guinness - Extra Stout

Other than that, any stout or lager I have a hard time seeing through...before drinking a few of 'em that is
