  • Guinness, or similar year round.

    However, in the summer I am a fan of Blue Moon. At a risk of sounding un-manly, a slice of orange in a pint of Blue Moon is a great summer beer. And, if you order a BM at the bar, they server it automatically with an orange slice.


    Also, just because I know tons of people will post this I will do it myself.

  • Stella Artois are nice in the 500ml cans 5% ...no hangover on this stuff.

    I'm having a green Tuborg right now 4.6% and it's about as easy as drinking beer gets as far as taste goes.

    Bell's Oberon is my favorite beer period... as far as other stuff that's good in the summer, the Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat and Summer Shandy ain't too fuckin' bad at all.

    Then again an ice cold Miller Lite usuallly does me just fine. Hell, in the summer... if the beer's cold, I'll drink it. I just tore through a case of Blatz a few weeks back.

    Red Stripe with a lime, or a Dos Equis in the green bottle.

    It would be Alexander Keith's IPA if they sold it in the States.

    I'm in my 10th year of college, with an end in sight, but I don't see switching from Natty happening in my life. That said, I do love all forms of soft alcohol. Hard liquor may be off limits for me henceforth.

    i love it...good man.

    i've come around to appreciate all kinds of beer now. at first, it was the expensive stuff..not so much because of the price but because a lot of it was high content and actually tasted good. then came Guinness. which now is a winter only beer.

    now with recent developments withnin the past couple years and starting all over at my job as foar as money goes, i drink whatever.

    rite now it'
    s the king Cobra and High Life!!!

    what's your end in sight anyway? 1 year?

    I like 40s too, but they take a lot away from my girlish figure. Anyway the end of school is in sight this October...starting to teach this Fall at Towson University which will help me make real money for the first time in my life...I even have a retirement package.
