GIVE ME YOUR BEER SUGGESTIONS!!

love me some goose island

Just made an unbelievable stop in fox chapel on my way back into town. Uncle Sam's for the first time in months and a beer nutz stop that resulted in a case of duck rabbit schwarzbier, which I have never seen but can't wait to try.

Duck Rabbit is usually mediocre. Foothills is a much better NC option, as is Lonerider, Highland, Triangle Brewing, Full Steam, etc. Just my opinion, though.

That store looks great. I want to find Xingu Black Beer. If they have that, I will be there.

I needed a few bottles of hefeweizen for a stew recipe that calls for it, so last night I went to 3 Sons Dogs & Suds, a bottle shop up in Wexford. They have six-packs of Xingu. If I remember right, this is a quick drive from your place.

Yeah, I agree. I especially like Highland. I just got a growler of the Carolina Brewery Oatmeal Porter.... good, not great. Have you tried any of the Pisgah beers?

The Duck Rabbit schwarz is pretty solid.

Anyone try anything new lately worth checking out this early-spring season?

I kind of just want to get some Killian's tonight, have a hankering for it.

I was in Dallas, TX last week and found a microbrew I quite liked. The brewery is called Franconia Brewing Co. I think they've only been in existence a couple of years. I had their dunkel. It was malty, full-bodied, and good. According to their website, they also have a lager and a wheat beer. I don't know if they ship beer outside of their metropolitan area.

Did the old guy working the counter there talk your ear off?

Don't remember if I posted in this thread yet, but Firestone Double Barrel Ale is good, and Xingu (Brazilian black beer) is really good as well. Along with good ol' Stella, that's my holy trinity of beer. And Alaskan Summer is really good as well.

Founders Kentucky breakfast stout. Pricey, but one of the best breakfast/sweet stouts you'll ever have.

[DocEmrick]

Just tried Sierra Nevada Bigfoot, pretty good.

[Ben Klingston]

Has anyone seen Long Trail Belgian White around Pittsburgh?

[Kraftster]

Went with Kostritzer schwarzbier and Young's XX Choc

[llipgh2]

Tried Leinenkugel Berry Weiss tonight. Really like the Summer Wheat, so I gave it a try.

It's a little sweeter than I thought (it's made with loganberries, elderberries and blackberries, and honey). But it's a nice fruity taste, with a wheat undertone.

This would be a very good beer for a hot summer day/evening.

[LeopardLetang]

had blue moon summer honey wheat (i think) last night. i forgot i dislike honey beer. this one was pretty good though, but it creates thick saliva in the back of your throat.

Youngs Double Chocolate Stout

Very tasty.

Has anyone tried any of the oyster stouts around? I bought a bottle Harpoon 100 Barrel Series Island Creek Oyster Stout the other day. I'll probably open it tomorrow night for game 7. The combination of the tastes intrigues me. Has anyone tried this and can you tell me anything about it?

I love oysters and beer, but I dont know about together.

I had one before and didn't like it but not surprising since I don't really care for either oysters or stouts.

I tbink it was Love Stout by... I think Weyerbacher. That doesn't help much I guess. /csb
