And most of them are better than that Widmer crap. Sorry Buff, but even with lemon/lime/orange/whatever, that is the WORST Hefe I've ever tried.

Does Rogue brewery still make Dead Guy Ale?

Yes, a fine brew on hot day.

Cool. We're planning a trip through the Pac NW this summer (Dad still lives there) so I'll have to plan accordingly, maybe leave one of the kids there to make more room to bring back beer. Dead Guy Ale is the one beer that I miss from Oregon (all the others that I drank whilst there are available here).

Hit the brewery if you have the chance and take the tour. The pub upstairs isn't bad and the beer is fresh.

Tonight brew - Backdraft brown by Hook&Ladder. A smooth brown ale, with the right amount of hops to give it robust taste.

I bet you are glad you dont live in the People's Republic of California. Some egghead wants to raise the tax on beer by %1800.

I would seriously have an issue with him.

I'm having me a nice bottle of MM tonight, taste like heaven.

Without a doubt my favorite beer. I can't wait until they go wide distro with their Hefe Weisen.

I polished off a case of this when i was home on leave, and this was all I drank.

Bison Chocolate Stout = Pretty nice, and has little aftertaste and chocolate doesn't really come through. Strongly believe that it's better from keg, then bottle.

Another dimwitted dem in our state. You might be a dem, but we get the socialist of the party that LAB/F (i think he searches his moniker so the slash is to keep him out of here!) loves to vote for. Does this guy realize that he is facing also the voters that drink beer? What an idiot. I guess Mike's hard alcohol will be taxed $2 a sixer so those that like that type of drinks will be stocking up in Vegas, Laughlin, Havasu, Portland, etc.
Thanks for bumping this thread. Just got a copy of one of the beer mags that lists all the breweries in the states and Canada. If anyone is heading to OMane weekend, we should put together a brewery crawl. Tommy knockers up in the hills is one of them.

Well, we did have Lynchmob tell us he bought Old Milwaukee 12 pack for $4. I didnt neg rep him but he should be banned from this thread.

Currently in my fridge:
3. Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat

I drank Leinis in the northeast and now bottled and distributed in Cali. Reg beer was ok but Sunset wheat is a great beer.

I have to be honest I was not "loving" beer too much on Sunday after loving it just a bit too much on Saturday.

A very tasty rye pale ale brewed in Athens, Georgia.

Honey Brown, Sam Adams Boston Lager, and of course (PA boy here) Yuengling fits the bill any day of the week.

I've heard good things about that beer, but it isn't available here on the west side of the country.

It real is so-so beer, but for the price it does produce a ok stout. but stay away from the black and tan

Starr Hill Brewery in Charlottesville VA - Dark Starr Stout. Nice brew, good color and excellent taste. Worth the price

Been to the brewery several times. I used to live just down the road in Corvallis, Or. and used to drop crab pots off the pier behind the brewery on a regular basis. Had to sleep in the car a couple times because of the "refreshment breaks." Sure made for some good crabbing, even if we didn't catch anything worth keeping.

Mmmmmmmmmmmm.

Hefe is my fav. style of beer.....

I'm from PA and i'm sick of Yuengling lager. I do however drink lots of Troegs

http://www.troegs.com/

I also drink lots of magic hat beer.....

When I'm in Germany I drink a lot of dunkel (dark) hefeweisen. So much tastier!

[elsid13]

Fuel Cafe Coffee Stout - Good color, nice head. a little bitter

Not bad, would be 3 1/2 stars out of 5

[elsid13]

Bluegrass brewing companies' Jefferson Reserve Bourbon Barrel Stout

I am amazed how good this is.

Little head, dark complex color and very smooth taste. It similiar (but better) then Old Dominion Oak Barrell Stout.

4 out of 5

I was in Oklahoma City a couple weeks ago and there is a cool bar called Tapwerks. 212 taps. I was in heaven.

I also just got back from Germany and went to the oldest beer garden in Munich, Augustiner Biergarten. You'll need a wrist brace after drinking those beers.
