The greatest beer of all time...

[Stickshaker]

Is Redhook's Long Hammer. From a cost vs. quality standpoint of course. Word.

 

[ChshreCat]

Strange... Long Hammer was one of the beers that had me thinking I didn't like IPAs. To each their own!

 

[Wild Duk]

Agreed. I've been able to get a pretty close clone and keep this one on tap at all times at home.....

 

[BigEd]

I think you need to sample more beers.

 

[Stickshaker]

I think you need to sample more beers.

I agree!

 

[ChshreCat]

I think you need to sample more beers.

Especially non anheuser busch beers.

 

[artyusmc]

free beer and lots of it

 

[JefeTheVol]

Im pretty sure the greatest beer of all time is Miller Lite. Its triple hopped!

[coffeegod]

Mine of course

 

[Babylon]

I actually don't like IPA's. So I really can't judge. The only Redhook product I have enjoyed is Blackhook.

Really? They own Redhook too?

You should give Treblehook (barleywine) a whirl...

 

[ChshreCat]

A chunk of it, at least. Caught my ear when I was listening to a Redhook ad on the radio and it was tagged as an AB company.

Blasphemy!!!!How dare you!:fro:

 

[DizzyPants]

Yeah, they are owned by AB or InBev or whatever. I jog past their first brewery every night in Seattle (Fremont).

I was working for my brothers glass company when we got a call late on Fri that they had a broken window. We went and they were nice enough to give us a half rack of brew to boot.......I mean a six pack as was told back at the office.

[baah]

According to wikipedia, AB owns 25% of redhook.

[DizzyPants]

Exactly, but they wouldn't have the distribution, a huge brewery in Woodinville and in N.H. w/o AB/InBev.

[Jawbox0]

I liked their Tripel... though I admit I picked it up at the time because it was Ridiculously cheap... I wish I'd bought out the store's stock.

I noticed that for the first time this weekend when my buddy was drinking a ML. Hilarious....just like michelob's porter being "All Malt"


I haven't had a long hammer in a while but I do remember enjoying it when I had it last.

 

[goose1873]

I love IPA's and am a big bell's fan...but there are still many i haven't sampled yet

 

[buzzkill]

The greatest beer of all time... is the next one...

 

[BrookdaleBrew]

Longhammer is drinkable for sure. Didn't know Redhook was partially owned by AB though. I'll know to avoid them from now on. I try my best to stay away from any AB product.

You'll want to avoid Widmer, Goose Island and Kona under the same ownership/distribution arrangement that effects Red Hook (and of course Bass, Boddingtons, Spaten, Leffe and the other Inbev brands).

 

[gokorn2]

out of all the IPAs Longhammer is pretty low on my scale

 

[masonsjax]

For IPAs, Stone Ruination is probably top of my list. For beers ever sampled, I can't stop thinking about Double Mountain Terrible Two I had a few months ago. Kept going back for more the whole 2 weeks I was out there.

 

[HeavyBrew]

Illinois was lucky to get Stone just recently. I've been in a real hoppy mood lately and I agree Ruination is amazing.

I was in Colorado on vac recently and Avery,Odells and Boulder Beer make some excellent beers. Avery had 20+ beers on tap and had their ipa 3 different ways..Original, dryhopped with chinook, and surprisingly dryhopped with fuggle! Awesome brewery.

I agree that Redhook is good considering you can get a 12 pack for like 13 bucks. You do get what you pay for, but considering you can get Longhammer for that price it's worth it.

 

[Pick]

One of the best tasting beers I can remember is no longer made, Duke Ale in 7 oz bottles. I really liked "Old Vienna" up in Niagara Falls, Ontario in the mid 70's. When I had some stateside it tasted like generic BMC, quite a disappointment.

triple you say?
dear god man that's madness!

Avoid Leffe? BLASPHEMY!

 

[Thor the Mighty]

Really? Longhammer?

I don't base MY personal tastes off of the general public, but when you're going to say that the best beer in the world, hands down, is Long Hammer IPA, you're assuming that at least three people agree with you.

This is my favorite.

According to other people, there are better beers but this is one that I like a lot.

see how that works? haha.
