What commercial beers are in your 'fridge?

I couldn't help myself, so my beer stash now includes the following:
Bear Republic Red Rocket Ale and Hop Rod Rye
Angel City IPA
Belhaven Wee Heavy
Samuel Smith's Taddy Porter
Schneider Weisse Hefeweizen
Hopf Helle Weisse
Kostritzer Schwarzbier
Spaten Oktoberfest

An untouched case (24) of Sam Adams Winter Classics
3 - Coors Winterfest
2 - Hurricane Reef Raspberry Wheat Ale
1 - Hornsby's Cider
1 - Kelly's Cider
1 - Kelly's Raspberry Cider
1 - Miller Lite (guest beer)
11 - Bud Light (guest beer)

...and that's it. No homebrew is going in until I clear out the winter stuffs. :cross:

I'm short on homebrew and keep buying beer

Currently have:

AB Vanilla Bourbon Cask Ale
SN Pale Ale
New Holland The Poet
Three Floyds Alpha King pale ale
Avery Hog Heaven Barleywine
Dominion Lager
Anchor Steam Small Beer (no idea why I bought this...)

The small beer is pretty good at 3.x you can drink it all day long too.

I am super low on beer now. Currently have:

Black Butte Porter
Mirror Pond Pale Ale

Should be cooling the keg of porter tomorrow. Can't brew anymore for I am leaving to Portland for 3 weeks soon.

Always have some Hazed and Infused, and Newcastle in the fridge. We dont have the best variety down here, but even if we did, I would still buy these two.

This past week my fridge was full of VA beers.

Legend Porter
Williamsburg Ale Werks Washington Porter
St. George Brewing Co. Dragon Pack (mixed pack)

Now all's left is two bottles. I'll be probably picking up more today. More bottles can't hurt! (Although I'm starting to run out of room over the cabinets in the kitchen... The beer boxes stacked up there holding all the empties are starting to make it look like a warehouse.)

Let's see, we're about halfway through from our trip to Discount Liquors, we still have ...

Leiny's Creamy Dark
Leiny's Sunset Wheat
Taddy Porter
Breckenridge Vanilla Porter
Sam Adams Winter Lager
Sam Adams Black Lager
Sam Adams Holiday Porter
Old Fezziwig's (picked up the Sam Adams Holiday case :cross: )
New Glarus Fat Squirrel
Grimbergen Double
Point Pale Ale
He'Brew, the Chosen Beer (SWMBO picked it out because it was funny)

All I can recall offhand.

Right now, I have no commercial beer in the fridge but I do have a bottle of Late Harvest Riesling and a couple styles of homebrew. Dieting SUCKS.

Old Dominion's Oak Barrel Stout and Blue Moon...

Just finishing off a mixed 12 pack of Harpoon. First time I've had any and I have to say I wasn't all that impressed with it. Very thin. The Ale was almost clear, thought I was looking at a Bud.

Let's see... We just got back from the specialty beer shop so we have so "normal" stuff, plus some good stuff!

4 Woodchuck ciders (my wife's)

Some crap that people have left at our house:
2 Bacardi things that my sister left here
2 Coors cans... we have some friends that love that stuff...
1 Stella Artois

Now, the good stuff

4 Alaskan Ambers
2 (22oz) Lagunitas Cappuccino stouts
1 (22oz) Rogue Chipotle Ale (actually, just drank this-tasty!)
1 (750 ml) Rogue Old Crustacean barley wine (can't wait to try this one)
6 pack of Pete's Wanderlust Cream Ale

Austin

I just added a quart bottle of BrewMasters Private Reserve (Budweiser) to my fridge. I saw it at the store and had to give it the benefit of the doubt. I've only read bad reviews about it so far though. At the very least I will end up with a very nice flip-top bottle to reuse.

Anybody here had this stuff yet? I'm currently on meds and want to wait until I am done to give this a try.

Bought some Deschutes Jubilale holiday ale.Pretty tasty stuff.A little on the dark side and great hoppiness.I'd buy it again if i needed to(I was a couple days short of 3wks on my wheat and got thirsty!).We(SWMBO and I)brewed our own NewYearsSpice(our own recipe)holiday ale the day before yesterday.We'll break it out on NewYears eve.
Cheers

Pulled a Chimay red, a Chimay blue and 2 big bottle Leffe Blondes out of my fridge a few hours ago to bring up to drinking temp and my fridge is now bare - there is food in it but I don't count that

Sam Adams summer ale
Pyramid Curve Ball (Kolsch)
Lindemann's Kriek
Sam Adams Tripple Bock 1993, 1994, 1995 (in wine cellar)
Rogue Old Crustacean 1997 (wine cellar)
Just killed the last Pete's Wicked Ale

Beer run yesterday to get me thru the long holiday weekend. (OK, part of it anyway. And it all stays here today since everyone else drinks BMC. )

Still in the fridge

Maudite
Weihenstephaner
2 left of the 6, Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale

New additions

6er of Breckenridge Vanilla Porter (I LOVE this stuff.)
6er of Bell's Pale Ale
Bomber Rogue Shakespeare Stout
Bomber Lagunitas Imperial Stout

Single 12 oz Celebrator Dopplebock

Went to Sam's Club today and wound up with a great find! They had a "Best of Belgium" 18 pack including six each of Stella Artois, Leffe, and Hoegaarden. That's the first I've seen Hoegaarden or Leffe for sale in the states, so I couldn't pass it up.

They also had a Leinenkugel 24 pack sampler. A friend from Wisconsin keeps raving about that brewery, but I'm skeptical. They're next door neighbors to Old Milwaukee, and only a stone's throw from the "Land of Sky Blue Waters..."

Leinenkugel's makes some excellent beer.
They brew some of my favorites, including Creamy Dark and Honey Weiss. The only ones I don't care for is their Red and their seasonal Apple Spice. We always have Leini's in our fridge, if your Sam's has the sampler buy it, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Yuri_Rage said:

Running low on beer of all types, but here's a list of what is or recently was in my fridge:

Anchor Porter
Rogue Arrogant Bastard
Stone IPA
Pyramid Hefe
...

I thought Arrogant Bastard is made by Stone. ???
Anyway, I hear all the hype about it, but I have yet to find it around me.

I found a couple stores that sell good beer, so I picked up the following:

SN Celebration Ale (6 Pack)
New Belgium Trippel
Boulevard Bully Porter
Fuller's ESB
Rogue Dead Guy Ale
Anchor Steam Beer

I have not yet opened the Boulevard, Fuller's or Anchor, but of the others, all were good except for the Trippel. Don't know if I care for that style. Celebration Ale was the best among those. It tastes a lot like an IPA. Definitely better than their Pale Ale, which isn't bad.

Arrogant Bastard is Stone. I had one last week. I like it better than their IPA. Too many IPAs today are about the IBU-race. I prefer a well balanced beer and Arrogant Bastard fills that niche quite well. I also picked up another 6-pack of Celebration Ale. Damn is that stuff tasty, I just wish it came in re-usable bottles.

Yup...my mistake in a previous post...edited.

I like their IPA better than just about any other IPA out there.

I'll have to give the Leinenkugel brews a try!

Yup, try em and let me know what you think!

In my fridge, I have Paulaner Salvator and Summit Brewing Co's ESB.

I've got a couple things in the fridge

Allagash Grand Cru
Rogue Imperial IPA
Redhook Sunrye
Stone IPA
Weyerbacher Double Simcoe IPA
Goose Island Stout
Hop Rod Rye
Harpoon IPA
Heavy Seas' Peg Leg Imperial Stout
Heavy Seas Small Craft Warning Pils
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
Sierra Nevada Celebration Alea
Boont Amber Ale
Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA
Sammy Smith's Lager

There are more that are NOT in the fridge, too. These are in a closet upstairs and I'm too lazy to go look and see what all is there, but I know I have these (and maybe one or two others)

Sierra's Bigfoot Barleywine
Duval
Redhook ESB
Dogfish Head Chickory Stout

-walker

edit: for full disclosure, I have some Coors Light and Bud Light in the fridge, too. This was left over from when my family came down to visit for thanksgiving, but it's not really 'beer' in my eyes so I didn't originally count it.

Currently have:

Stoudt's HefeWeizen
Troegs Mad Elf

Prior to that we went through some Optimator, Troegs Oatmeal Stout and Franziskaner Dunkel. Gotta love the distributor that carries Optimator for $24.

Arrogant Bastard is mighty good, I too prefer it over most IPA's. Although for IPA's lately I've been sticking with Bell's Two Hearted Ale and Three Floyd's Alpha King, both really good without being majorly bitter or overdone.

I think I'm also in a minority in that the celebration ale didn't do much for me... It was good, but to me just tasted like a hopped up SNPA. Good, but didn't live up to all the hype I've heard about it...

I'm definitely one of the Celebration Ale fans. I've heard there were 2 batches this year and the second batch is supposedly better, apparently the hops didn't have the AA expected and they adjusted for greater hoppiness.

However; I picked up a Celebration Ale off of the counter yesterday that I had poured and then allowed to come up to drinking temperature. After a couple drinks I decided to just pour it down the drain, it tasted nearly completed unhopped and sickly malt sweet. As I was going to the sink I saw the bottle and realized that I had not poured SNCA but rather a Gordon Biersch Winter Bock. It's amazing how much expectations can alter perceptions. I doubt Winter Bock will make a list of my favorite beers but expecting it to taste like Celebration Ale is not fair at all!

Brewtopia, that's a beautiful list. Mine has only been going for about a year, so I have a ways to go before I match that.

Thanks. Needless to say, SWMBO and I eat out a lot (No room for food). At least I have my priorities straight.
