No worries. We have a thread for you as well:

I did try the Ranger IPA from New Belgium this past weekend. Nice and hoppy, like you would expect, but I must be in more of a mood for lighter fare these days so I will probably be working on Shiner 101 or St. Arnold's Lawnmower for awhile.

1 almost empty rack of Thurn und Taxis Hell
1 half empty rack of Jacob Brau Weissbier

The T&T will most likely be replaced with a rack of Augustiner Helles.

Not to worry; the best rule of beer is to drink what you like. Please be open to trying new beers, but drink what you like.

In fact, if you ever take any grief from someone out there in "Munich on the Willamette" I have a fact you can pass along in rebuttal.

No less a craft beer figure than Fritz Maytag usually has a six-pack of Coors Light in his refrigerator at home. He finds it a refreshing thirst quencher, especially in hot weather.

This is first-hand information. Fritz told me this himself a few years ago.

Great beers, wished we have them here in the US. When in Germany, I like to drink the Radeberger Pils.

Two Leffe Brune's just arrived from Belgium today along with 2 Leffe glasses for our growing Belgian beer glass collection. Leffe Brune isnt mind-blowing, but even though it is owned by Interbev none in the range other than the blonde is sold in the US so it is a novelty to have some in your beer fridge over here.

...or St. Arnold's Lawnmower for awhile.

I'm glad to hear St Arnold's is still around. I left Houston 10 years ago, not long after they got started.

They also have great Bike Jerseys!

Always makes me smile, as a friend ended up very oversported at her first beer tasting, and wandered around the event saying, "La Fin du Monde," repeatedly.

LOL. I was looking forward to splitting one of these again with monitor in Kansas City this weekend, but alas...just not meant to be.

A six pack each of AmberBock (Michelob) and Bell’s Oberon Ale.
Does me posting in two consecutive alcohol threads (favorite gin) make me a drunkard?
(for the record, I’m buzzed right now watching the Pens hopefully finish off the Canadiens in game 1).

It's 5-2 with 10 minutes left... I'm thinking we can stick a fork in the Canadiens for the night...

Does a B&J's Blue Hawaiian wine cooler count? It's such a pretty blue color...
