Looks like a few people are trying to stand up to the Anheuser-Busch takeover. Personally, I don't like any company that is basically a monopoly, but this could really help Anheuser-Busch. I think their beer sucks and tastes like salt water. I don't understand how anyone can drink that stuff and think it tastes good.
Back in my younger days when I didn't know any better and I didn't have much money for beer, yea it was the way to roll. But now I prefer a nice dark beer, or any Belgian beer. Call me what you want, but I want a beer that TASTE good and goes well with a really juicy steak.
What are your thoughts on this? What kind of beer to you prefer to drink?

I don't drink domestic beer either...never really cared for the watered down taste. Give me a Harp, Bass, Newcastle in the winter and Corona or Dos Equis in the summer.

Bass is good. Ever tried Pyramid Apricot? Drop Top is also good with BB-Q - my second choice.

I like Blue Moon, Killians Irish Red, Bass, and Duvell when i can find it, and a nice Dos Equis once in a while.
Admittedely, i typically have Coors Light in the fridge as well.

Blue Moon! I love that stuff, but I started to hate it once I found out it was brewed by Coors - am I a beer snob? Duvel is also a very good beer, quite expensive though. I love the tasty malt flavor! What about Chimay? Have you guys ever tried that stuff? It's even more expensive then Duvel I beleive, but man that stuff will give you a wicked buzz.
Here's some shots from the local market here in my town that has about every beer imaginable. They guarantee if they don't carry the beer you are looking for, then there's no possible way to get it in the states.
BEER HEAVEN!

Yea, that's how I usually feel. It's pretty hard to pick out what you want, so I usually leave with a few different 6-packs. I was searching some Google images of beer and check out what I found.
I got to get me one of those if they really exist. Brings new meaning to the term, "beer bong".

Like Evastar, I like Corona, with a slice of lime.
For domestic beer, I drink Busch. :)

C'mon cincy, the bark taste will put hair on your chest!
Yea, Sam Adams is pretty big around here. They got a few ales that go great with steaks. Speaking of that, got any local breweries around your town that are also restaurants? If you guys ever make it out to Austin Texas, check out this place called North by Northwest - excellent beer and food! I recommend the Duckabish Amber or the Bavarian Hefeweizen.

I'm pretty sure it's just a local brewery based out of Austin. I took a look at their website and didn't see any other info pertaining to other locations.

Hey guys,
I went to America for the 1st time in June this year, I have to say, it was the most amazing time I have ever had. I fell in love you the country an the people instantly! I cant wait to get back on day.
Anyway...the beer....
english beer is flat, warm an tastes like something out of gutter (i'm talking about the lager) American beer was so refreshing and cold and crisp. Ok it's not as strong as the beer we have but I would rather have your beer than the rubbish we have.
When i'm out I try to find pubs that sell kwak. I'm not sure if it's over in america, i did look for it but couldnt find it anywhere. it's incredible...
If i cant find any kwak, i drink coors lite now in memory of the best time of my life!
