Lagunitas. Lil sumpin, brown shugga, and I loved Lagunitas sucks.. Best mistake ever. DH and I met over our love for hoppy beers. Mmm. Making me miss drinking a little... T- a couple months and I'll be back in the game ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer/page/2#post-1268473 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 00:41:33 +0000 lovehoneybee 1268473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout: Well, we bought a case of Mad Elf ($20 more than Perpetual, eep!) </p> <p>I was kind of meh about it at first...my first impression was of a weird combo of wine and whiskey. But I've had several now (not all in one night of course--11% is no joke!) and I'm starting to enjoy it a lot. Perpetual is still my favorite, but I can definitely see springing for a case of Mad Elf once or twice during the holiday season! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer/page/2#post-1259410 Wed, 04 Dec 2013 13:31:06 +0000 kjpugs 1259410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@apis: oohhh Hoptimus Prime. On our first wedding anniversary I got those, forgetting how much higher the ABV% was. That was a ROUGH night for me. I puked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1258048 Wed, 04 Dec 2013 06:13:01 +0000 shellio 1258048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Brassgiraffe: Love Lagunitas!!</p> <p>@LindsayInNY: Added! Drink up :)</p> <p>@dagret: So cool that your hubby made labels with the newborn pic on them :) A friend's husband owns a brewery here and while she was pregnant they made a mead (I believe) that will age for 21 years so they can share it with LO. Seems like a long time to wait! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1257474 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:36:54 +0000 mrsmate 1257474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a fan of hoppy beers, even though I may drink it if it's around :wink: I feel like in the last several years it's become overdone, like oak in wine.</p> <p>I like the pilsner at the moat brewery in North Conway, nh, and magic hat no. 9 if I can get it on tap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1257460 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 19:27:16 +0000 apis 1257460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely Double/Imperial IPAs: Dogish 90 Minute, Smuttynose Big A, River Horse Hop-A-Lot-Amus, Harpoon Leviathan, Weyerbacher's Double Simcoe are all some favourites from our old local Whole Foods. As they are so packed with flavour, it's easy to (a) take forever to drink just one bottle, and (b) make a six-pack last a really long time!</p> <p>I also want to try the Hoptimus Prime sometime, mainly for the name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1256843 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 15:46:21 +0000 littlebug 1256843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Brassgiraffe: Yes, I love Lagunitas! </p> <p>@dagret: Hubs bottled a homebrew in October and submitted it to our church's Oktoberfest homebrew competition. He named it Little Tyke IPA and put D's picture on the label. He took 4th out of over 30 beers! </p> <p>@meredithNYC: @dagret: @lovehoneybee: Agreed, Dogfish Head can do no wrong. I'm trying to get my hands on their American Beauty that they just released for Hubs for Christmas.</p> <p>@sometimesshesings: @shellio: My husband's been homebrewing for a few years. Right now he has a clone of Young's Double Chocolate Stout. Mmmm....</p> <p>He mostly does clone recipes from a book that my sister and brother-in-law gave him, but for Christmas I'm getting him a book that will teach him how to make up his own recipes. Hmm...I'm sensing a theme in my Christmas gifts this year, ha ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1256744 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 15:22:02 +0000 dagret 1256744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: Two hearted is my favorite beer too! </p> <p>@lovehoneybee: I'm a big fan of Troeg's perpetual ale too. </p> <p>Also, Troeg's is a great place to take kids - it's so loud in there, and they have snacks at the snack bar - that no one cares if your kid's yelling. My husband was just there last night! </p> <p>i really like Bell's Winter White, a lot of Dogfish Head, and I had an Otto's Apricot Wheat last night that was delicious.</p> <p>ETA: my husband homebrews occasionally and bottled a beer when i was in early labor. He got labels made with L's newborn picture on them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1256615 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 14:51:07 +0000 prettylizy 1256615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Somersby Cider for sure!

A Lagunitas IPA can do no wrong in my book. I'm going to have to check out all the great suggestions. Fun thread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1255260 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 03:57:44 +0000 shellio 1255260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love anything hoppy too! I like all different styles though. always craft brew. Current favorite is the Avery Out of Bounds stout, brewed here in Colorado. </p> <p>@LindsayInNY: I use untappd :) I love getting badges!</p> <p>@sometimesshesings: We have been homebrewing for a few years but are currently on hiatus because we started kegging and then our keg fridge died :( We are updating our basement though, and building a bar with two taps, and you better believe we will have homebrews on tap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1255188 Tue, 03 Dec 2013 00:32:26 +0000 sometimesshesings 1255188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ohhh, a beer thread! </p> <p>I'm a hophead, too! I love Sierra Nevada's special wet and fresh hop ales. Beers coming out of San Diego also tend to be awesome. </p> <p>My husband and I just started home brewing. Anyone else making beer at home? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1255170 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 23:58:33 +0000 Emsmems 1255170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: mmm, yes.

So dark and delicious! I also love pretty much anything Dogfish Head. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254762 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 19:33:47 +0000 lemondrop 1254762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Almost forgot- Great Lakes Christmas Ale! We usually bribe family members living in Ohio to ship us some for Christmas. </p> <p>Must give Troegs a try, will have to check out their distribution! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254754 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 19:30:55 +0000 littlebug 1254754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout: Mad Elf is probably their only beer that I can't rely get on board with. I can only drink one before I get sick of the taste. Too rraisony for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254747 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 19:25:37 +0000 Maysprout 1254747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: That's my favorite beer too! Sometimes I prefer the 8 though to taste less alcohol (when I can get my hands on it). DH and I passed through Rochefort a few years ago and spent the evening, it's a very cute little town.</p> <p>@littlebug: @lovehoneybee: Have you guys tried Troegs Mad Elf? It's their Christmas beer, I :heart: it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254632 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 18:06:08 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1254632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wailua Wheat from Kona Brewery. The bomb.com. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254592 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 17:44:30 +0000 HayleyJane 1254592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will drink just about anything decent. My favorites are stouts (especially Brass Knuckles from Barley Island, just down the road from me!), but I also enjoy weiss, saisons, and fruity stuff in the summer. The only stuff I can't get behind are the crazy hoppy beers, which is weird because those are really what first got me into good beer. Changing taste buds, I guess! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254517 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 17:10:45 +0000 lovehoneybee 1254517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: The Perpetual is my favorite but I haven't met a Troegs I didn't like! How funny that you grew up so close!</p> <p>I also love Saranac, and like Long Trail, Dogfish Head and Flying Dog a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254469 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 16:47:26 +0000 kjpugs 1254469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm really into hoppy IPA's too! I've been having the Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale lately, but my all time favorites are Upland (an Indiana brewery) Dragonfly and Rad Red. The Rad Red is surprisingly hoppy and delicious! Dragonfly is a classic IPA and happens to have been my first IPA! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254463 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 16:45:09 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1254463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm such a beer novice. I like Rickards White, Bud Light Lime, or fruit ciders. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254453 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 16:42:44 +0000 Fronkinzankinsbride 1254453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think I have a favorite. I like to drink local, I like to try a variety, I love seasonals. I miss certain particular Oregon breweries (widmer, deschutes, Bridgeport) but there are a few good local breweries here too. I'm no snob though and drink plenty of high life, bud light, and pbr when the occasion or mood arises! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254435 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 16:35:07 +0000 littlebug 1254435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: I grew up there! Yes, the Perpetual is SO GOOD. They just had a scratch IPA that I sent my sister over to the brewery to get a growler of for Hubs for Christmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-beer#post-1254390 Mon, 02 Dec 2013 16:17:50 +0000 Littlebit 1254390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mfa_lady: oh my gosh..you are so close!

I'm a big Belgian and hefe fan. </p> <p>I love anything Dogfishhead, especially their 120 and World Wide Stout.</p> <p>My absolute favorite is this one though: </p> [attach=1790/13/mx767j.338x600.IMG_20130419_203019_236.jpg]
