I don't think it ever gets old, for me.

[primesuspect]

The desert island question!

That's tough.

Unibroue Maudite comes to mind. Skullsplitter Orkney Ale is up there as well.

Kuhnhenn's Brown Ale is also one of my all time favorites.

There's also Pabst Blue Ribbon ;)

[Buddy J]

He said you had to pick one! None of this "ooh but maybe, no but oh I don't know" crap. Pick one!

[Sledgehammer70]

Prime is fired....

[Kwitko]

Newcastle Brown Ale

[SPIKE09]

Present choice Romer pilsener

[IndigoRed]

Ok, well since I don't have access to the US boutique beers, and any beers over here that qualify require 2nd mortgages to purchase, I'll nominate the ol reliable. (kinda like nominating Bud...) It is a good drop as well.

Plenty of Budweiser (or Miller, or Pabst...) for bathing.

[csimon]

I like abita ...I prefer killians but abita amber will do in a pinch.

[DogDragon]

Well if I had to pick one
Hmmm....
BEER
I don't care as long as it's cold :D
I mean it's free :)
But tried Blue Moon and found if you drink it from
a glass & put a slice of orange in it and it's Great :)
I found that if you try a new beer in a glass it's better (it breathe that way)
than the bottle. :)

Warsteiner Premium Oktoberfest

[fatcat]

I refuse to answer this question :beer:

[Buddy J]

I've got it:

Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout

A fine choice, sir! Samuel Smith has yet to make a beer that I dislike. I'm quite fond of their organic whatever the hell it is too.

[DogDragon]

yeah FatCat not going to answer, right
If it's beer and free he's there lol
But I wouldn't want anybody else :)
He's fun to drink with FatCat is the man, I didn't see him without
a beer at the LAN. :)
Yep he could make it down here with the people I hang with :)
But he has to try some rocket fuel :D
The cherries is water compare to rocket fuel
and if he lives maybe I should bring it to LAN08

The Dunkel from our local Hofbrauhaus. Yum.

[mas0n]

A good stout might actually keep you alive...

[primesuspect]

Mas0n - that's why I chose the oatmeal stout - each bottle is a meal! :D

[Sledgehammer70]

While I am not a huge beer fan & don't enjoy it as much as the users above do. I have to stick with a plain ole cold beer.

Fat Tire

[mas0n]

Fat Tire

Aye sir, New Belgium also brews a Black Ale (http://www.newbelgium.com/beers_bk.php) that I can rarely find, but is exquisite.

[Thelemech]

This beer smells like a steak and is the best beer I've ever had.

Can you name the truck with four-wheel drive? Smells like a steak and seats thirty-five! Canyonero! (http://youtube.com/watch?v=pgV9Kp8QzOA)

[Sledgehammer70]

steak beer hmmm sounds tempting

[Annes]

steak beer hmmm sounds tempting

It was GLORIOUS. I've only had it once. At a housewarming party for some people I know who have tons of brewing friends. It was the best beer party, ever.

[Zuntar]

two things

I don't like to chew my beer, so a regular ale would be fine. I personaly like Canadian beers. If I want the taste of food in general I'll have it with my beer, not in it.

How come StainMeNow doesn't have a real girl achievement?

[GHoosdum]

She doesn't like the graphic.

[Annes]

She doesn't like the graphic.

Well, that, and it hasn't been awarded to me yet. But I guess I'll take one for the team. Bring on my girlie graphic!

[GHoosdum]

Oh look, there it is. ;)

[Annes]

Great! Now get on with the rest of them!

j/k :-D

[SPIKE09]

Just discovered a new one OLD TOM from robinsons brewery, amazingly complex hoppy taste and 8.5 ABV i give you OLD TOM

[CB]

A bottle of pre-mixed White Russian is sort-of like beer, mirite? That's what I would bring.

[SPIKE09]

A bottle of pre-mixed White Russian is sort-of like beer, mirite? That's what I would bring. HEHE CB is the Big Lebowski :p

[CB]

Actually, the big Lebowski was the rich guy. The guy who liked White Russians was just 'The Dude'... however he's far from the only person to enjoy White Russians :P

Also, I haven't really enjoyed hand-mixed White Russians in the past. I like the premixed bottles. Is that odd?

[GHoosdum]

Yes.

[SPIKE09]

Yes. I know CB and yes liking premixes is odd but then you are the butterfly guy :bigggrin:

[mas0n]

white russians are VERY good with soy milk...

mmmmm

[McBain]

Will a black and blue count? (Guiness + blue moon like a black and tan, only...uhh....not)

[muddocktor]

I guess my choice would be Anchor Steam beer. I found this in Houston in the 70's and fell in love with the taste. It's just so hard to find around south La. though. :(

http://icrontic.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=24011&stc=1&d=1190397450

[Guyute]

Guinness.


Mine too. Kudos to BadKarma's choice, Sleeman's Cream Ale, if they had no Guinness.

BadKarma- I just tried their Original Dark this week- mmmm, tasty. BTW I have a Sleeman's Brewery about 2 miles from my home.:bigggrin:

[mas0n]

I have decided I would much rather be deserted on an island with a beer than another person.

That is all.

[broady81]

Got to be Guinness for me I have to say... :beer: Not with blackcurrant or anything though :mad: Extra Cold mind you :wink: Dibs to those who agree, although I'm always partial to trying something new :cool2:

Excellent choice sir! I found that as well back in the '70s. A bit of history if you'll indulge... and if you don't I'm writing it anyways.

Anchor Steam is meant to be a warm beer. Origins in San Fran in the 1800's when the only way to get ice was to ship it around the horn. I was never game to try it that way, but it's supposed to be nice, but it's beaut cold. Of course I won't drink any beer warm, but that's just the Yankee coming out in me... I won't eat whitchity grubs either... or balut (actually spelled balot).

[Venz Dirge]

Imperial Stout for me

[osaddict]

Desert Island, hmm, it's probably going to be vvv hot then... in which case I'd go for a refreshing beer... I know ill get slated now but I'd choose Hoegaarden

In colder climates it would be Leffe Blonde :D

[floppybootstomp]

Guinness.

[Hawk]

At the moment, I prefer a Killians Irish Red or two with a nice rum soaked cigar. Enjoyed out on the front porch with a cool afternoon breeze.
Gets hot here in Fla.

[Master Of Kind]

Carlsburg - Special Brew.

[SPIKE09]

Carlsberg - Special Brew. Does that come with a brown paper bag ??? :bigggrin: and a smell of wee:confused:

[Qeldroma]

Desert Island, hmm, ...

Actually, when I made my choice I thought of what went best with fish ... and crustaceans :) .

[Master Of Kind]

Does that come with a brown paper bag ??? :bigggrin: and a smell of wee:confused:

It comes in a CO-OP bag, seeming i buy it from a CO-OP.:cool2:
