    I too have just come back from eight days in Ireland and was mostly drinking Murphy's (I was in Cork after all). But I was craving ale rather than stout.

    tonights choice will mostly be Butcombe gold or whatever the guest ale is. I live in cider country and really wish I could enjoy a pint of it but my taste buds just won't allow it.

    Now, whenever I'm going out, I ask the waitress to tell me what they have that "isn't a light beer."

    However, my heart belongs to Leinie's and Blue Moon simply because of their availability everywhere around here.

    Ah, another Minny girl! My sister & family live in No Branch................nice community :)
    I'll agree with you on the Leinies (personal fave HoneyWeiss) and Blue Moon.
    Can't pass up a Rolling Rock - that's my 'standard' beer of choice.

    Guess I've never cared much for "flavored" beers........the cherry/blueberry/coffee/ etc thing just doesn't taste right to me. I want my beer to taste like beer! And I'll admit to being a wussie and NOT caring for dark beers.

    It's all such a personal preference!

    I'm a big "Blue Moon" drinker. We had a crawfish festival here when it first came out and its the best beer to eat crawfish with. I have not been drinking any beer lately because of the calories in them. I have had a few bud selectes with 55 calories. its not bad but its not great eather

    I tasted a Samuel Adams Blackberry beer last night....Actually drank the whole 6 pack...ha! it was delicious! It almost reminds me of the "Blu" beer I tasted @ Sweet Water in Atlanta!

    I have also been into "Arrogant *kitten* ale" when I see it on tap around the bars.

    WHat beers have you been into lately?

    Sam Adams Blackberry Wit has been a staple the last couple summers. This summer I tried the SA Rustic Saison. Very tasty!

    Haha, so glad I'm not the only one that can't touch the "pee water!" I think Coors Light and Miller Lite fit in that category. Ick!

    Whomever mentioned the Shocktop Raspberry Wheat...thanks for bringing it up. I haven't heard of that, but I LOVE Shocktop and will have to look for it. Sounds delicious!

    I'm a sucker for a good wheat beer or hefeweizen.

    I like Belgian ales, like Chimay, Orval, and Duvel. Or a nice IPA or Brown. Or a crisp Pilsner. On a hot summer day, give me a Wit or a Kölsch.

    Have you tried the Lips of Faith pumpkin/CRANBERRY beer?? It's pretty amazing. A little tart from the cranberry but yum yum!
