Cheap beer: Moosehead or Molson Canadian (good for camping trips or when a bar has nothing else)
More Expensive: Wild Rose IPA, Alley Kate Amber Ale
Most Over-rated: Corona. I still don't know why people drink this crap. There's a reason why it has the nickname "Mexican Piss Water"
The more expensive beers that I listed aren't actually much more expensive, but they're well-made craft brews so they're WAY tastier
Most Over-rated: Corona. I still don't know why people drink this crap. There's a reason why it has the nickname "Mexican Piss Water"Luncbox1QFT, Corona is just as bad as heinekin
As far as "cheap" beers go. I enjoy Pabst. If it's in a 40...I'll go OE.
However, I'll rarely turn down a brewski.
Some of the more impresive beers I've had include Dead Guy Ale and Maudite. As a general rule, if there is a beer available that I haven't tried I will consume it.
Lately, I've been going towards leinkuegal(sp), but I feel like that kick is close to an end. It's a refreshing wheat beer with orange flavors. Not at all heavy, but far from watery.
The beer that I find to be the most disappointing is the American Lager. However, due to it's higher absoulte gravite, it is a great choice if your goal is to get ruined but you don't have the money for cocktails.
However, Scotch is my drink of choice (although I try to avoid it lest I choose too much).
favorite macro brew- Sam Adams Boston Lager
favorite micro brew- New Glarus Spotted Cow (only available in Wisconsin)
favorite for pong- Keystone (can't beat a 30 rack for 14 dollars that doesn't taste like the back seat of a taxi)
Grasshopper=local? Do you live in Calgary, or somewhere near here? Because that's where I'm from. And I kinda agree with Guinness. It's better than the standard Bud/Miller/Coors crap, but people hail it as the holy grail of beers, when it's really just an average stout. However, it is a gateway beer to bigger and better things, so we have to at least respect it for that :PFavourites: Molson 15/16 (but it's impossible to find now), Rolling Rock, and a local one called Grasshopper.
Expensive: Stella Artois, mostly because you get a fancy glass when you drink it at a bar
Over-Rated: (I'll probably get modded for this) Guinness.

I live in Peace River, so I guess, yes? I never had it before I got to Alberta, but now I buy it pretty much every other time I hit the booze store. It makes an excellent chase to whiskey.
I'm guessing you live in AB, too?
[QUOTE="Dzjaansis"]Can someone please post some real beer? :|Luncbox1I posted a beer that won bronze in the world beer championships for 2004, so... :|
I only drink imaginary beer. It's similar to the tea my sister served when she was 6.
Mmm, light and air-y.
Cheap Beer: Tecate is the only cheap beer (in a can) that has flavor. As for Bud, Miller, and Coors...I dont drink it. Period. Maybe if we are playing beirut.
Favorite beers are:
EKU 28 by Kulmbacher brewery. Its an amazing doppelbock that goes down smooth despite being 11% alcohol.
Chimay, any of them. Just a good everyday Belgian beer, goes great with food.
Pliny the Elder...so much savory hops in this thing it effects the mouthfeel.
Green Flash Imperial IPA...great aroma hops, and not too bitter. A flavorful IPA you can drink all day long.
Old Rasputin Imperial Stout...heavy, bitter, and deep.
11 Anniversary by Firestone Walker brewery...aged beers of various types blended together like wine to form an amazingly deep, complex, and deliscious beer. Open a bottle, pour a few ounces into a brandy snifter, and let it come to room temperature and share with friends.
I know I am missing a bunch, by anything super high in hops I enjoy, while I also loooooove malty beers. A good barleywine, Belgian ale, and Scotch ale are good too. So are black lagers.

Yep, I'm in Calgary. Do they sell Wild Rose brews in Peace River? I'd recommend you give their stuff a try if you can find it, it's really good :)[QUOTE="Dzjaansis"]Can someone please post some real beer? :|Jandurinwhat constitutes real beer?

I had one of the same for expensive favorites (the chimay) :PI think that there is an unfair advantage. It is fairly difficult for me to find distributors of "real" beer. As such, I am often forced to consume the more prevelent brands.
I've only been to one establishment that has the "real beers" that have been listed. that being said, I've enjoyed the ones I have tried.
Thank your lucky stars that you have a great selection.
I stick with cheap beer...Old English will usually get the job done ;)chicknfeet
it saddens me that people think beer is for getting drunk.
Beer is for enjoying the taste. Getting drunk is like, idunno, a perk.
