Is this a retro MTV video thread or a real mans recipe thread?

Ok, let's get back to recipes. This started with a trolling troll but it's actually an interesting question. What makes a beer a "real man's beer"? Maybe what isn't is just as informative. I consider myself a manly man. I like 4x4s, guns, and smoked meat. I like a great variety of beer, very few styles I don't like. I don't like pumpkin, non sour fruit beers, or nanner bomb hefes. Other than that? Just about anything can be a manly man's beer. On the yellow fizzy end of things that one can drink a lot of I'm partial to Lonestar. Knock your d!ck in the dirt? Sooooo many to choose from...RIS, barleywine, big a$$ Belgian, doppelbock, imperial/ double/ triple/ quadruple IPAs. Sessionable beers that aren't yellow and fizzy? Mild, Common, Kolsch, cream ale, pale ale, Amber, Vienna, Marzen, etc. Oh, and for the record I give zero sh!ts which way you swing. I know plenty of straight guys that are weak petty little men, gay guys that'll beat your ass (yeah, YOUR ass [emoji16]), and women with more balls than a big brass monkey. Curious as to what you define as a manly brew... discuss

I have tons of recipes since I've been brewing for a long time. Everything from a dopplebock to an American light lager is in my repetoire. But I have no idea how to make a manly beer for a working man, because I'm neither manly nor working. I bet if you were specific at what you were looking for, and not denigrating female brewers and beer lovers that we'd be able to come up with something that you'd like.

Could use a good dopplebock. It would be great to have one ready by October and my ambient basement temperatures will be out of range after March for most lager-type fermentation (so starting soon would be good). I know a lot of guys that think of themselves as manly-men that would love this style at our Oktoberfest event

Awwwww, nobody's hounding you. It's OK. You'll be fine. We're just having some fun. Lighten up a bit. :D

And look on the bright side. We just set you up with an awesome "working stiff" playlist for your enjoyment while you brew. It's all good.
