Last time I had a get together I had Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Stout, Porter, and Barleywine. The guests brought over some Saporo, Full Sail, Fat Tire and other misc. goodness. Usually everyone agrees to bring over what they like and then we all try each others out. :mug:
 
Last time I had a party I served BMC's and box wine.... but my friends brought Scotch and fine wines.

I have good friends!!
 
I buy a Natty Light or Busch Keg, make sure some of my friends are there and place an old Bud Light cap on the keg so they think it is bud light. It's an old trick I learned in college when we used to buy Honey Brown.

I always have a fridge full of homebrew bottles. So far my Vanilla Stout was a huge hit along with my IPA but I haven't had any parties here lately.
 
must of my freinds are into craft beer, when they come down for derby this year, i'll have 3 beers on tap, plus others in bottles. i just got the kegerator going, but i'll have an APA, ESB and a blonde ale on tap, plus an IPA, IIPA, APA, Stout and a few Red Ales in bottles. those last three i dont have many left. but it should be a good time. other times we have people over, i dont mind if people drink my homebrew, most will bring some local craft beer or something decent like SNPA and they seem to leave a bottle or two.
 
I have a few regular guests who understand good beer. They will bring along some local craft brews (and count on me serving my home brews, which are generally pale ales). For other folks, especially if it's summer, I will have Corona Light. Those a great party beers - on a hot day they go down easy in large quantities without getting anyone loaded, and you don't have to listen to that Miller Lite/Coors Light discussion.
 
Usually it's a good time here. Mixed 12's of Arcadia, Magic Hat, Redhook, mixed 6's of.....everything, and good ol' home brew. I'll usually buy a mixed 12, grab 6-8 bottles of home brew, and let the guests bring mystery beer. Usually end up with a round of "taste this, now try this one" and get quite inebriated by the time the party is done. Good times
