So I had a Tankhouse Ale the other night (made in Toronto), my dad said that he had one sip of it a few weeks ago and couldn't drink the rest (and my dad drinks a LOT of beer, especially heavy stuff), but I loved it, it was nice and sweet. I also dig Heineken and Sleeman, and Guinness if I can get it.
So I went to Chicago, and there, I drank some beer. They have this thing called 'Samuel Adams' (http://www.samueladams.com) of which there is a series of 'Seasonal Brews'. The back of a bottle reads:
FALL - Octoberfest,
WINTER - Winter Lager,
SUMMER - Summer Ale,
SPRING - White Ale.
Those are some pretty good suggestions, and also pretty WOODS OF YPRES if you ask me. + Good stuff!
btw - I keep trying to tell myself to cut back a little, but it's just so delicious. Beer in general that is.

That beer sounds amazing. I'll have to try and get some if I go down to the U.S.
I usually just like to stick to my regular old moose head
.Have you ever tried Wackens own brand of beer? My friend brought some back when he went this past Wacken and gave me a couple. Theyre pretty good.

My favourite beer is a local brew called Phillips Double Chocolate Porter. Its really dark, but goes down very smooth and has a nice chocolatey kind of burnt (for lack of a better word) aftertaste. On Halloween I had a Scottish beer called McEwen's and damn is that shit strong! I thought I was drinking rum for a second. Another beer I enjoy is Rickard's White (and the Red is no slouch either). Stella Artois is probably my favourite European beer, but to be honest I much prefer Canadian beer over European beer. Also, I'm not really a big beer drinker I'd pick a joint over a beer anyday.

Lately I've been drinking either Steamwhistle Pilsner, Guinness Extra Stout, or Carib Lager (from Trinidad).

Actually, out of those 3 I prefer the Carib. It has a more distinct taste and its cheap! But my band drinks Steamwhistle so thats usually we way it goes haha

A few days late but I just saw this thread...
I was in Frankfurt Germany this last Friday on my way back from Dubai and as soon as I got to the airport I had to have a Franziskaner weissbier. Sweet Oden, that's my favorite beer of all time, followed only by Hoegaarden from Belgium.
Perhaps I shouldn't admit it was only 7am...
Fuck it, it still ruled.

I'm excited because I just did a case exchange with a bunch of coworkers. Everyone signed up for a different beer and traded up until everyone had one of each. People brought some great stuff. I'm most excited for:
Troegs Mad Elf:
and Anderson Valley Winter Solstice. No pic, but they say
"Luscious, creamy, smooth, and warming, this medium bodied ale is brewed with Caramel and crystal malts to give it just a hint of sweetness, then paired with our private blend of holiday spice."
Can't wait to get out of work tonight and crack some open.

In the past couple days we tried a few beers from the case trade at my work. My husband drinks all the IPAs because I'm not really into it. I'm working my way from light to dark. So far what has stood out to me was:
Leffe
A great blonde Abbey style, clean, fruity and a little dry.
And my own contribution, Magic Hat's Circus Boy.
I will admit, I should have saved it for the summer case exchange. This Hefeweisen was like summer in a glass.
But last night at the bar we were drinking this classy $1.50 tall boy shit
