I'm not HUGE into beer but I quite enjoy blue moons mango wheat. Any other beers I should try based on that? doesn't have to be the EXACT same flavor profile or anything just looking for any suggestions from people who also enjoy it.

Somehow calling a beer “bitter” deters both self professed hopheads and normies alike

It’s an incredibly approachable style that nobody gets

Hi all - I'm a journalist working on a story about the opening of Proclamation Brewing (formerly Proclamation Ale in Warwick, Rhode Island.) If you're from the state, you likely know about the current mess going on with the brewery versus the beer community, which is a very rare occurrence. If you're an industry professional, and you are open to talking on the record about this situation, send me a message. 🍻 Happy to take anonymous statements, but I will need your name and brewery association to verify your identity.

I made a post a while ago (month or so) about a beer trip I plan on doing to Belgium next year for 10 days or so. I've been second guessing this since, is this the best move for my first large solo beer trip? For me, it's between Czech Republic, Germany and Belgium. I decided Belgium as it seemed easier to navigate given the distance between the cities than Germany. But what do you guys think? The places I would like to tick off in Belgium,I would require to rent a car and drive. I'm starting to think about focusing on a specific area of Belgium or Germany, or spending the 10 days or so going all over Czech Republic? Sorry, a bit of a ramble just for advice if any of you had similar thoughts and what you decided upon. Thank you for reading.

other than the rauchbier, which I think tastes like an ashtray, seems like a good collection

I get burned out from citrusy, fruity, hazy IPAs and love a piney west coast IPA. I’ve had it before, but I just had a Pliny the Elder from Russian River. It’s the perfect example of a well balanced, piney, smooth IPA. Any other examples y’all can think of throughout the United States?

Hello everyone, I'm new to the community! I have a big sweet tooth and I've recently gotten into exploring the world of beer! I went to my local Oktoberfest this past weekend and had a mug of the Golden Road Mango Cart ale and really enjoyed it! I tried a handful of other beers, Left Hand Milk Stout, Breckenridge Brewery Palisade Peach, Belching Beaver Peanut Butter Milk Stout, they all kind of disappointed me or were more bitter on the back end than I was hoping 😭

But I'm not quitting yet! I'm on the quest to find a variety of lighter, sweeter beers I might enjoy. It seems like fruitier is the way to go for me but I'm open to all options and suggestions ☺️ I'm curious and open to trying! Thanks y'all 🍻

I have a collection of beer bottle caps, but I have a cap for which I cannot remember the brand. Can anyone help me?

Link to the bottle cap (I cannot attach pics): https://kommodo.ai/i/bO6Vd9eQSZA3WkPXwFC4

It was bought in Europe for sure.

Tripel Karmeliet and Sint Stefanus for me.

Open to any suggestion.

As title, I actually work in beer distribution! ...But I just can't get over the taste! Too earthy or too bitter for me.

A fruit beer like Lindemanns Framboise is great, but that's because it tastes like fruit punch. I've had a duchesse de bourgogne before and that was nice for my palette.

Any ideas?

Edit: thanks for all the suggestions! I'll start my list!

I find 30 packs all the time around Jacksonville when traveling to visit family. No 30 packs around Tampa. Prices are cheaper for the 30 packs than the 24 packs also. I stock up and bring them back south, but always has been a mystery to me.

I bet this would be funnier if I knew all the details about these beer blokes

I love Spaten Optimator but most of the time I get a slight skunk taste. I understand with the green bottles coming from germany this is common. I wish I could try it on the spot fresh

Not sure how much overlap there is between craft drinkers and Greek yogurt consumers, I just want my beer back.

I recently started drinking craft beer and tried a few beers from evil twin and I thought they were pretty good. Still not really sure if I like IPAs.

Which bars/pubs/taprooms in nyc would you recommend for non-IPAs? Im considering grimm.

im doing sober october this year, for my sins, and to raise money for a dementia charity, but i know its going to be difficult without a cold friday substitute.

i know that athletic brewing (https://athleticbrewing.com/products/athletic-brewing-noble-pils) or days (https://daysbrewing.com/) are always considered the best, but i was searching on google and across a post that said n.o.w.t is better (https://you-well.co.uk/the-best-non-alcoholic-alcohol-free-beer-you-can-buy-in-the-uk/).

it looks like a new ish brand, not cheap but not expensive, so i wondered if anybody has tried it,is it worth a shot?

thanks

Is this beer typically skunky? Seemed like a very expensive beer for it to just taste like Heineken.
I’m huge beer fan and have about nine different beers stockpiled right now for our own Oktoberfest.

I can drink two of the twisted teas or cayman jacks and still not get nearly as buzzed as I do off one 9% ipa(voodoo ranger to be exact)

If you had to stop for a bite to eat and a good beer along that route, where would you go?

I drink too much beer so lately I've been experimenting with very low alcohol beers to keep myself from going off the deep end. I start with one tall real beer then switch to the weak stuff. It's been great in terms of avoiding hangovers, only problem is there are very few options when it comes to low alcohol beers. Right now I'm drinking miller extra lite (2.8%... tastes like water and isnt sold everywhere). I've heard bud light platinum is low but I haven't tried it. Heineken light is probably the best tasting option I've tried (around 3%). Not sure if I'm overlooking something better.
