When are we having AMBERBOCK NIGHT??

Picked up a six of Peroni at Cost-U-Less a couple days ago. It was almost $9. My comment on it is that it is a beer that really goes well with food. I really like Japanese beers mainly because of how well they go with food, and I think that the Italians may have a similar philosophy when it comes to beer. Food-oriented cultures tend to think the same way.

that’s because they’re Canadian beers Chris!!

The boys here in Vegas drink Corona… sometimes they’ll drink NewCastle… once in a blue moon San Miguel (Mabuhay! lol)… but I don’t drink beer… so when you gonna visit us here?

Great post, Trench! I like Bud myself, but since I live in Singapore, it’s easier to get the local brand, Tiger. I also enjoy the occasional Guinness and even Carlsberg, Heineken and I think had Miller once. I used to hate the taste of beer, but now it’s growing on me. =P

@mimi. Peroni huh? Got to try that out. I was hoping for Heineken Light to pop up on Guam but haven’t seen it yet.

Well, being the German beer drinker that I am, I mostly go for local brews like Jever (bitter stuff), Jever dark and Beck’s myself. Since my days in Ireland I also like Guinness, Beamish and Murphys very much as well as Fosters though I wouldn’t dare to taste one with the other local brews around. Anyways, as I could ramble on for hours, Heinecken (and Budweiser) isn’t a bad choice in comparison to Miller which nothing more like water and foam. That’s just my opinion and I am still very happy to try some exotic beers from time to time.

Heffenzweizen!! I found that Rogue’s brew of it is at Mac N Marti’s and Mermaid Tavern. I also did like Mermaid’ Tavern’s local brews, especially their Oatmeal Stout. In California, I like to drink Fat Tire, another amber ale or Stella Artois, a light brew.
Here on Guam everyone drinks Bud or Miller. I usually opt for Heineken or Peroni, an italian brand that is almost like a lighter version of Heineken and is starting to pop up everywhere. I’m a girl so those strong bitter beers aren’t for my palette. But I do love the Heff. Geez I have a lot to say about beer, more than I thought. lol.

I’m not a beer drinker myself but my auntie’s German husband loves the San Miguel beer which is the Philippines’ most popular beer. I guess it must be good since Germans are known to be a beer loving country, right? :D

Not much of a beer drinker, I refer those cocktail mixed drinks. I only get to drink San Mig light here

I never get a chance to try many of the beers you mentioned reg, because I never see them around! LOL. Maybe I need to ask.

Toni, my brother n law learned to drink Samuel Adams while living in Rhode Island for college. Guess it is the weather??? lol

Polaris, we got to sit down and grab a couple rounds of the good stuff one night! Hit me up!

Even though Heineken is the official beer of the Rugby World Cup. I’m a Carlsberg girl myself. There’s a certain sweetness to it that I like. I don’t think there’s such a thing as great tasting beer, just like there’s no such thing as great tasting wine… it’s all personal preference really.

I can’t say I care for any of those you listed… at least of the one’s I’ve tasted. I have yet to try Amberbock and Mickey’s. When I’m in Canada though… I like my Alexander Keith’s when I’m up at the Cottage with some friends. Nothing like a good ol’ Canadian beer to go with the Canadian sunset :D

I like Sam Adams. The BF turned me on to it. We especially like the winter ale. For an inexpensive alternative, we drink Newcastle Brown Ale. I also like Yeungling, but the BF hates it. I guess I just like my beers dark. Just my two cents.

I have to agree with you on the Amberbock. Really great tasting beer. It’s interesting how my taste in beers has changed. I used to hate Miller Lite, but I found that it is among the better domestics when you are eating Japanese foods.
