I got a little bit of "Support Pennsylvania" Brew going on in my fridge right now:

1) Michelob Light
2) Victory Brewing Variety Pack containing: HopDevil, Golden Monkey, Lager, and Prima Pils - Gotta support PA #1
3) Weyerbacher Blanche - Gotta support PA #2
4) Appalachian Brewing Company Grinnin Grizzly (their spiced Holiday ale) - Gotta support PA 3rd times a charm

That's it for now...
 
Currently my fridge has St. George Brewing Company's Porter and the one beer left from a Smuttynose variety pack (that being Shoals Pale Ale). There's also a perry cider in there but that was intended for SWMBO but I may drink it if I run out of beer since she's out of town at the moment. Hey, I could use the bottle!
 
Maudite
Bomber of Rogue Mocha Porter
Bomber of Rogue Chocolate Stout
Fuller's 1845
Weihenstephaner Original Premium
Bierzbitzch Pilsner
3 bottles of 10 year old homebrew
B/M/C I keep on hand like water...

So I broke down today and went down to the LHBS to pick up some bottles because I need to bottle this weekend. I paid $11/case for 12oz bottles.

Later I had to make a run to Costco for some stuff and decided to pick up a little brew.

They had Mendocino variety packs AND SN Celebration for $22/case. Since SN is now twist off I ended up with 1 case of MBC beer for only $11/case more than empty bottles. Something is wrong with that math!

so you can add the following to my beer fridge inventory.
Red Tail Ale
Red Tail Lager (my least favorite, I wish they had included Blue Heron PA instead)
Eye of the Hawk
White Hawk IPA.
 
I stopped by the store today and picked up a few more things, so add these to my previous post:

Belhaven Scottish Ale
Gordon Biersch Winter Double Bock
Lagunitas Maximus IPA
Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale
Stone Arrogant Bastard
Stone Double Bastard
 
Czechvar
Smithwick's
Boddington's Pub Ale
Red Hook ESB
Stoney Creek Vanilla Porter
Abita Purple Haze
Stoudt's APA
Pete's Wicked Ale
Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
Samuel Smith's Winter Welcome

I'm getting thirsy now! :rockin:
 
Leinie's Honey Weiss
Capital Octoberfest (fantastic! Capital brewery is the best)
Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale (i really wasn't that crazy about this one, but i guess i'm alone in that...)
 
Just a few of them. I'm definitely going to need some help drinking these.

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...)
 
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. :(
 
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 :mug:

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.:drunk:
Cheers:mug:
 
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 ;)

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.

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.
