Sound off: Commercial beer you're digging

[MattHollingsworth]

Okay, so list a beer that you're loving lately. A commercial one.

For me:

A local store just started carrying Corsendonk Agnus. So, been drinking a ton of that. Corsendonk Pater is usually available here, but the Agnus was only available at one bar here before. I saw the Agnus and thought it was Pater because the bottle's exactly the same. The only real difference is that the cap is white instead of brown. I noticed the white cap and picked it up to inspect it and noticed "Agnus". Yay!

Anyway, it's a Tripel sorta beer. Golden Belgian. Not quite as bitter or dry as Duvel but with a nice spicy character to it. Love it. So, I'm buying it while it lasts.

You?

I've been on a belgian kick lately in general. Last night started with The Bruery's Mischief. Awesome beer! Fantastic hop aroma/flavor. It was the first time I've had it and I'll definitely be going back for more pretty quickly. As if that weren't tasty enough, I followed it with some Golden Draak. The maltiness in comparison to the Mischief was incredible - it was like a big old malty milkshake... in a good way. Two awesome beers.

Sea Dog- Blue Paw

Its a blueberry wheat beer made in Maine. I dont even like fruity/wheat beers, but this one is a winner for the hot days down here in Florida.

I'm rather enjoying some Paulaner Salvator right now. Oh the malty goodness. Dangerous too. It tastes nothing like a 8% beer.

Grand Teton's Bitch Creek

I brew so much that I haven't been drinking a lot of commercial beer lately. But I did have Great Divide's Oak Aged Chocolate Yeti and it was great. Even my girlfriend who generally hates oak loved it.

As I write, I having my first SN Glissade. I had seen it in the store, seen the label 'bock' and thought that I wouldn't like it - I'm a total fiend for ales and for hops. But I read good things here, so tried it. I like it! It is very clean and crisp, and is nicely hopped. It might inspire me to expand my brewing repertoire beyond IPAs.

 

[Edcculus]

I really enjoyed the Glissade too.

 

[Bubba]

Harpoon IPA

 

[tjp68]

Been drinking a lot of Big Sky Moose Drool as my session beer, but I make sure to have one Fuller's 1845 for my Friday night treat after another brutal week at work. I think 1845 might be the best beer on the planet.

 

[KayaBrew]

SN Porter. I got a case for $14.99 because it was "outdated". It tastes sooo much better aged anyway!



FWIW, I can't decipher the date code, so I really don't know how "old" it is.

2010 Bigfoot... I can't bring myself to leave it alone to age yet!

Two-hearted. Doesnt matter how many times I have it still impresses me.

Stone-IPA

Two-hearted is good just bottled a clone of it.

 

[frazier]

Right now SWMBO and I are really enjoying a 6er of Pilsner Urquell.

 

[mezak1gd]

just had the stone IPA for the first time too. Damn good.

 

[cclloyd]

I found a bomber of Stone 13th Anniversary totally by chance today. Stopped at a little liquor store that had a little sign in the window - "craft beer here". Score!!

 

[Nugent]

For me, it's Deschutes Mirror Pond. I find it to be a ideal pale ale for me, which means balanced and drinkable.

[BrewHerc]

I've been knocking down some bottles of Aventinus. Albeit, slowly though. I find it hard to drink an 8.2% beer too fast. Good stuff.

+1 -- "Paulaner Salvator.... Dangerous too. It tastes nothing like a 8% beer."

BLVD Irish Ale. A bit more mallty / hoppy than Smithwisk's, but a solid beer.

Dogfish India Brown Ale...
