Entry: Who Makes Your Favorite Suds?? Friday, September 12, 2003



Now that I've got this thing rolling a bit, I want to ask anyone out there that is actually reading this a simple question. What are your 3 favorite beers?

Ok, so for some that's not quite the simple question it seems. I mean, come on, who can limit it to three?!? After some real hard thinking (read drinking) on the subject, I believe I have my three. (I told you I was a beer snob.)
Chimay Gran Reserve (Blue)
North Coast Brewing Company's Red Seal Ale
The Elysian Brewing Company's Ambrosias Maibock


Please write what your three favorite are in the comments section. I have to know what's good out there before I try to taste it all.

Oh Shit, I almost forgot Mac & Jacks African Amber Ale. How could I be so careless. Ok, so my four favorite beers. (Note: Mac & Jacks doesn' t have a website, but I put the link to directions to their brewery curtesy of the Washington Brewers Guild.)

Ok. I think your right Micah, there is no way to pick just 3 of my favorite Beers. Impposible. So in as best order my favorite.
Welsh Ale. its hard to find a bottle and even harder to find on tap. but its exelent high alc. content mellow rich flavor and good body but as I say damn hard to find.
as a standard drinking ale I like Mac and Jacks for the opposite reason its easy to find (in Washington) thank god I live here. Its got a realy good flavor odd but Im going to say it has a subtle sour flavor that I realy enjoy. yummy
totaly drinkable and slightly sweet.
Chimay Red lable. yup a mellow Belgian ale . yum. Like it a lot have it at get this ( the Vouge nightclub) yup for a while they stocked the red label there just for me 9 bottles a month. great all round. but a little expensive. hey if nothing else im practical. cool beer out.

guiness close to dublin (NYC will do if you can find the right pub) I prefer Glasgow or Ayr

Green Chile beer (found in NM) I like the stuff put out at the local Taos brewery, don't mock me.

Lately i've been drinking Negro Modello and Sam Adams Octoberfest. I drink the Octoberfest every year, and the Modelo cooks into stuff really well.

My three favorite beers? Hmmmm, that is really hard. Rogues Brutal Bitter has to bu up near the top. Then I guess I would have to go with the Siletz Breweries Spruce Tip Ale because it is so unique. Now for a third ,,,, about 16 are comming to mind that I like for various reasons so I will generally just have to say a good bitter ale.
