Whats everyone drinking now a days? I want to try something new. I'm normally a fan of dark beer and stouts, but I'll try anything.

Sam Adams has some great stuff, but they can be hard to find. I just got 3 bottles that you can only get in Boston. Tasted great!

I love Sam Adams. I'll have to look for that!



I usually prefer Amber Bock, Sam Adams Octoberfest, Yuengling, and Fat Tire

Well, like I said... you can only get them in Boston. I still wanna try Sam Adams Utopias. I guess you drink it like Cognac.

Pretty much anything from Dogfish Head is good, also Long Trail and Wolavers is on my go-to list. I don't know if you get it out there but Southern Tier is damn good, and for local to you go for a Brooklyn.

sam smith (oatmeal stout in particular) > sam adams. sam adams always serves up plenty of flavor-... but not enough beer. it's difficult for me to still be able to taste the beer in sam adams. sierra nevada, southern tier, cigar city, rogue, stone, sam smith's, smuttynose, swamphead, mcsorely's, brooklyn, oscar blues, blue point, red brick, terrapin, st bernardus, tampa bay brewing company-... those are breweries that i trust my tastebuds to. it's rare that i'll ever get a bad beer from any of these breweries. give some of those a try.

For the money you pay for it, it better be! I like anything I can find from Shipyard and a big fan of Sam Adams Boston Lager and Nobel Pils. My everyday beer is Bud Light Lime though......no joke
