I'm kind of a beer snob and like some imports and domestics(microbrews). When I lived in WA I became very familiar with a local brewery called Dicks that makes a very affordable grand cru at 10% and has a very hearty taste to it. One of my favorite beers, however, is this:
Dogfish Head - 120 Minute IPA
It's a tad pricey, about $8-9 USD, a bottle..and I won't divulge where to buy it because it is in short supply but you can bet when I'm in WA state next weekend I will buy a few bottles.
I also enjoy Chimay triple`, a good dopplebok, heineken dark, and occasionally a good oatmeal stout for the taste. The older I get I can tell I'm definitely more of a beer drinker than I am one for the liquor.
Unfortunately, I notice that my belly can grow suprisingly fast when I partake in these delicious fruit of the gods! In my opinion, a good beer tastes best after a good training session.
