John's Arcade Forum - Classic Arcade and Pinball Collecting and Restoring Discussion Forum - RETRO MAME - Nintendo Vs Forum

We have a few beer drinkers here, right? I've heard John talking about how he loves IPAs on his podcast.

I can also appreciate a good IPA.

However, my favorite regular beer (one you can get at the store) is: PranQster Belgian Style Golden Ale.

(http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7160/6571677261_06e8fb1953_z.jpg)

VITAL STATISTICS
Style: Belgian Style Golden Ale
Color: Soft Gold
ABV: 7.6%
Bitterness: 20 IBUs

Also, my favorite session beer (one you can drink a lot without getting hammered) is:

Dale's Pale Ale (in a 24oz Tallboy can)

(http://www.brainardbrewing.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/oskar-blues-dales-pale-ale.jpg)

This is a nice tasty ale, reminiscent of a past time when summers were timeless and spent next to a secluded river with friends and plenty of beer.

Here is one last winner... (Good things come in three's right?)

Kwak Belgian Strong Pale Ale - Served in the unique Pauwel Kwak Glass

(http://thankheavenforbeer.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/kwakglass.jpg)

Note: One of my favorite cigar lounges in San Diego, Churchill Cigar Lounge, serves this with the unique glass and wooden holster. The bartender told me the reason is because in horse and buggy days they needed a place to put their beer. Or more eloquently stated: "The glass is a coachman's type beer glass.The wooden stand allowed coachman in a horse and buggy to be handed a beer to enjoy in their travels.  The wooden handled stand allows for a good grip and stand to rest the glass - reducing the chances of the beer spilling."

Brewed by: Brouwerij Bosteels, Belgium

Type: Belgian Strong Pale Ale |  8.40% ABV

I have had Dales before, it's pretty good. Never heard of the other two but I will seek them out!!

I bought a 6 pack of this tonight. It's pretty good:

Cool stuff in the UK! I need to get out there!!

Drinking this right now:

(http://beer.bobarnott.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130921_224351_1.jpg)

Just had 2 pints of this with a meal in the local pub.  I could have stayed for more, but with work tomorrow, better not.

last beer I drank was my own homebrew, an all grain stout I made, custom recipe in beersmith2. Right now drinking a hard cider, actually a Smith & Forge (made by i think the coors people?) its nice, not as sweet as Angry Orchard / Woodchuck. got a little tartness to it, quite nice. 6% ABV.

I noticed two of John's beers are California breweries... (Stone in Escondido and Lagunitas in  Petaluma). John do you have an affinity for California beer? When you're drinking it, do you imagine a beach with babes and surfboards, nice breeze, palm trees, and just overall living the California dream? I know you do feel like that when you sip those beers. :)

(http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/ca/ad/c0/caadc0c0981eca74df85c640d06003b8.jpg)

funny thing is its hard as hell to enjoy a beer on the beach out here in California you have to hide it well ( unfortunately )

my brother-in-law works for Miller / SAB and I score allot of new brews from him & sis for free, Blue Moon seems to be my favorite of the big box brewers...

Definitely not easy to drink on the beach here in So Cal.

Tonight I'm drinking Netherlands finest nectar as a toast to all the great guys who are helping me on DLF with artwork for Dodgem - Etienne and Bela, Cheers guys!
(http://www.austrianbeer.co.uk/images/amstelbeer.jpg)

damn that looks good

I'm drinking it - I'm hating it - but I'm finishing it all the same, and there's 5 more in the fridge. Maybe bottle 2 will taste better?
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2640/4102314711_f47754d8a4.jpg)

Got an 89% on Beer Advocate. It looks good. But I don't know if I could get past drinking something that translates into, "A dog's hairy asshole."

Let me look at that picture again.

Nevermind, I can get over that.

Drinking this tonight. I really like these Stone beers!

(https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3778/13905181052_21ee771762_c.jpg)

Yeah Stone makes some great beers. You are a man of good taste. Tonight I stuck with Tequila. Had Don Julio in this order. 1. Silver 2. Reposado 3. Anejo 4. Anejo 5. Anejo 6. Anejo, etc, etc.

Big bill at the end but so worth it :)

Oh plus one Corona light :) Which got spilled lol.

beautiful pic btw.... love the glass

Tonight I'm on the water.  Drunk too much lately.

Same here!

Tonight's delight is Brahma.(http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41049000/jpg/_41049404_glass.jpg)

Tonight's pissfest has been brought to you buy

Sun
Sea

and a few too many of these.

(https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7008/6594992621_f73c759411_z.jpg)

I work in walking distance of Stone Brewery in Escondido. It's a pretty cool place. Nice restaurant attached.  The only beer I drink is Coors Light.. I have no class.  :-[

Stone brewery is kind of in an industrial area... You live in an office lol?

I work around there.

I had a Newcastle Friday night at the pizza place in town and while I have had it before it really hit the spot then.

Good thread.  I'll have to go Pure Michigan and say Founder's Pale Ale & All Day IPA, Brewery Vivant Farmhand, Bell's Oberon & Two Hearted.  When I'm feeling "exotic" I have Corona Extra w/ loads of lime, Landshark, & the occasional Red Stripe.

Picked up a few of these after hearing about STONE here and a few other places.  Not tried it yet.....looks scary.

I like Oaked Arrogant Bastard Ale a lot

Second Bell's Oberon.  I get it whenever I find it around here.  I also have their topper on my bar tap, sadly, never had a keg of it in there :(

(http://lifesphilosophie.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/oberon.jpg)

I love the Stone beers! Let us know what you think of it.

Drank them yesterday in a caravan in Exmouth with the family whilst watching Eurovision, I remember the first two, then laughing too much at the TV.   I know it's strong stuff, but I'm sure the winner had a beard.(http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/74770000/jpg/_74770591_74770589.jpg)

Oh blimey yes my missus caught me doing my "wtf..." face the other night when this lady(?) was on the telly next to Scott Mills. It makes me think of the time when Eurovision was an event - I used to stay in and watch it with my whole family and Terry Wogan was presenting. The acts used to be crap but hilarious. Now they are crap and bland.

But back to the original topic - I've been getting a taste for Dutch beer Grolsch lately. It might have something to do with the satisfying pop you get when you flip open that lever :)

(http://m1.behance.net/rendition/modules/79266643/disp/b857e7620a2f6c48594ad70d1a0957d5.jpg)

Just picked up a 6-pack of PBR. Who cares if it's hipster beer. I like it. I'll save it for the Tuesday night Arcade Outsiders Podcast. Fuck yeah.

tonight's tasty beverage is (http://www.newinnamroth.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/hancocks.jpg)

Visiting parents in Albuquerque New Mexico. Lots of tequila and Negra Modelo

I have 3:

Bud Light
PBR
Iron City Beer- Local Pittsburgh beer.

tonights tasty beverage is...

and next week I need to travel to France with work, so I'll hopefully be posting some French ones.  However I'll probably just go to an irish bar and get a Guinness.

Talking of Ireland, meet Thomas...Thomas Caffrey.

Is this available in the US?  It's HUGE here.

I usually drink it straight with a twist of lemon.  But I quickly found this picture so forgive the flowery foo foo drink.

I believe you.

Tonight I'm drinking this.....what's that word again.  Meh.

It'll do, (http://groceries.morrisons.com/productImages/217/217918011_0_640x640.jpg)

I believe SPAM is part of your diet.  This thread is for the men who drink beer.  Please keep it on topic.

This one had an after taste similar to when you lick a bouncy ball....and don't pretend you never did it.

hmmm can´t remember. But i remember how my balls smelled after our dog licked them.

Now there's two ways to read that one.
Cute little dog playing with a ball in the garden, bit of drool, good dog

Ok Jow. After several months and this thread, I have something to tell you:  :-\

I now agree that San Diego (which includes both the city of San Diego and San Diego County) is a superior beer region than Portland, Oregon.

 :o

Jow
Are you trying everything and anything or have you found a few favourites you wanna stick to?
I have this great pub near me and every time I go down there they have a different beer on tap, which is fine but usually the beer I liked last time I visited is now gone for a different one .
So I have to try them out all over again to find the one I like best.
IPA has been around a long time but seem popular again.

A trip to costco today.....and a slab of DOOM BAR = a happy lesoleil70 :-)

Cheers guys... (http://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/1/590x/25f27doom1-466722.jpg)

oh boy. here we go.  No beer, and 1 month of soylent.  Jow, you have to drink them for both of us this month.

I had 2 packages today, 1 a NOS zaccaria phoenix marquee, and 2 a month supply of soylent shipped out of the USA by an old friend.

Right now, the marquee looks tastier.

for the 4th of July I was able to score 2 pints for myself of the unobtainable Heady Topper... ( scores 100% on BeerAdvocate )  

its super hard to get... without the boring details, lets just say it takes a private jet to get this beer to the west coast of Southern California... I highly recommend if you can get your hands on some !

Ive been trying to get some.  It aint easy.  Nice work.

I've subscribed to your YouTube channel, your on to something good, don't hold me to it but ill see what I can do and hook u up with a pint or two... ( your not that far from Orange County right, just down south a bit... )

Thanks for subbing :)

And yes, I'm a short drive to OC :)

Oh, and I drank this tonight.  Good stuff. (http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/10/e9y7atar.jpg)

nice, I have not had that one, Sunday I got together with some friends ( our 4th of July push to get ready for football season ) and it was another round of IPA sampling... out of the couple of beers 

I liked this Ballast Point Sculpin IPA, it was very tasty...

I'm so missing beer this month.  However Soylent is sooo good.

Maybe I should invent Hoppy Soylent.   Only issue is, can or bottle.

Bottle.....I mean Can...Really...I'm with the bottle brigade 100%

"Would you like that in the can....no I'll have it right here" - European Vacation

Sculpin is GREAT.  One of the best IPAs out there, and very easily available.  It rocks.

Definitely loved Jow's beer review. Gotta do more of that. Good for the hobby too because of the video games in the back. It's kind of like a beer review / public service announcement that arcade games are fucking badass.

This is freaking AMAYZIN (http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/15/ebase4uh.jpg)

After a month of no booze I'm back in the game - where you been?

Here's what I'm drinking this weekend.. Jow and Lesolei.. What are you guys drinkin' these days

(http://www.theperfectlyhappyman.com/uploads/peters-brand-pilsner.jpg)

I've gone on a crazy health kick. I'm morphin into superlesoleil100. Midlife crisis kicked in early.

No beer has passed these lips in 2 months.

Same here. I actually took a 3 month break, but, now I'm back. How can I not be!?!?

Lastnight was 2 pints of this with a family get together.
Went down faster than a crack whore after a dime bag.

over the past weekend, I was up in central California for a classic VW driving rally an one of major stops was at a Irish bar, Crooked Kilt in Paso Robles, when I found on tap, I had a few pints of Firestone Union Jack IPA an must say I it was well enjoyed, if you get a chance to sample some don't hesitate

decided while watching football Sunday evening, were going to construct the 1st Heady Topper pyramid in California ( that we've seen at least )  ;D

Thats like porn.

Hey dudes. John, I have never heard you that hammered before until I listened to the Grinkers Podcast. In fact, I haven't heard ANYONE that hammered in a while. LOL :)

Which one?  ;D

Went down to Oceanside yesterday and had a couple beers at Breakwater Brewing Company

Perfect Day:

Plus an awesome Bacon, lettuce, tomato, Gouda, & mayo (B.L.T.G) sandwich with home made potato salad. Oh, and wore shorts and a t-shirt.. And it was a cold (70 degree high) day. Here's to SoCal!

So beautiful.. even the glass you drink it out of is impressive, sir!

Awesome bro... Sierra Nevada being the #1 (Non Sam Adams) microbrewery.. I wanna try this. Love supporting Sierra Nevada.. Usually drink their Torpedo IPA.. Which you can get at ANY store in my neighborhood for a  reasonable price... Love it man!

Got some beer for the holidays.  The keg will make it until Christmas but the Mad Elf may not make it to turkey day.  Has anyone ever tried it before?  11%!

Damn! 11%!

Nice.  It's great stuff.  Not nearly enough love for Hefeweizens in the micro brewery world.  The unfiltered taste is awesome.  Hoping to see some options in the West Michigan brewing scene (which is completely legit by the way)

last time I had one of these was 20 years ago as a student and it tasted like shit.
20 years later i tried it again, and it still tastes like shit.

If nothing else, it's consistent.

This thread used to be cool - maybe you all just turned into a bunch of shandy drinking ladyboys?

Just saying  ;)

Cheers.

Well I did like Penn Brewery's Chocolate Meltdown, But that was a seasonal beer. Looks like I'm back to Bud Light, and the other domestic beer.

Ever since I got back from Zihuatanejo, Mexico, I'm on a Tequila and Negra Modelo kick.

$1.50 per beer, $4.50 for good tequila (Don Julio Reposando, double shot), sitting RIGHT on the beach. Beats the hell out of our beaches in SoCal. Even enjoyed a fine local cigar, and no wet suit needed, water is warm!

LOL. Hey, when John quits drinking (or keeps a six pack around for 8-12 weeks) I stepped up! I'm a team player!

This has been my favorite pretty much since they started making it

This beer blew my mind...

Had this last night.  Was good, but a little overhyped IMO

(http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb221/jsenigaglia/780AA386-E2DD-48AC-8835-A5B50D12B08E_zpsaqgcp6zp.jpg) (http://s207.photobucket.com/user/jsenigaglia/media/780AA386-E2DD-48AC-8835-A5B50D12B08E_zpsaqgcp6zp.jpg.html)

I've enjoyed a bottle or 2 of psuedoSue. It is indeed a great IPA. My top 2 are currently Heady Topper and 3Floyd's Zombie Dust. I haven't had the pleasure of trying that Citra Showers yet, but I hope to one day soon!

Also worthy mentioning is your transformation of drinking coors light bullshit beer (in the first AO podcasts) claiming you're no beer snob, into your current status of being a major untappd beer snob! haha fuck yeah dude, welcome the beer club elite, enjoy the ride and never go back to the mass produced shit piss beer. ever! kthx

fresh delivery of unobtainium from rainland. .. my good friend over in Ninove sent me two bottles of WITKAP

from what I remember of the story its brewed by Monks that all they do is brew beers to support the cause

it is a hard to get beer, can't wait to get a taste on these...

Went to Scotland this week for a day with work, had a few pints of this in the evening, not bad at all.
