Any lovers of good beer here? Just now I enjoy this lazy Sunday afternoon drinking a bottle of delicious 'Dark Side Of The Moon' beer. :D

Looks good, 10.1% is indeed 'strong ale'

I always found beer to be a little bitter for my taste, but I am curious as to what Dark Side of the Moon beer would be like.

Not seen that one before.

I have tried this one and it's not bad at all. Maybe a little bit too 'heavy' for some though!

Had this on tap at the restaurant, once. I lived two blocks away at the time, so I had walked to work and had planned on walking home.

Good thing.

I had two as I was locking up. I remember pulling the second one.

The next thing I remember is I was at home, on the couch, halfway through an episode of Futurama.

I can only hope we get it again!

I'm an IPA man, myself.

Presently drinking a Schlafly IPA, a 5% session ale that comes in pints.

It's hockey playoffs...so I'm doing #IPASFTW yet again. I'm pretty sure we used up all the magic in 2019, but why not try!

Lately, I've been a big fan of the Kronenbourg 1664 (which now has me rethinking my previous distrust of lagers,) and thanks to a local Thai/Sushi place, I now have a deep love of Sopporo.

i havent drank kronenburg in years, it used to be pretty popular around here when i started drinking.
lately for myself, when im not drinking guinness, my larger of choice is birra moretti . while its still a mass produced larger, its tastier than any of the other ubiquitous largers here like carlsberg, heinken, bud etc

gives me a hell of a headache the next day though

David Smith was telling me about Kronenbourg's place in the pantheon of beers. I believe that he was rather surprised I even knew what it was, lol

The restaurant that I work at used to carry Moretti, but it's been such a long time since we did that I had completely forgotten about it until just now! Carlsberg is another that we often carry, but I find it less desirable than Kronenbourg.

At the end of the day, though, it's Dos XX Amber that I still hail as my favorite beer.
