The Beer Thread

if I like Blue Moon, what other kinds should I try?

Not that exact same style, but this is a favorite of mine http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/76/772. Might not be exactly what you are looking for, but I am also a fan of Blue Moon so perhaps you might enjoy it as well.

And this thread needs this:

Thought I'd resurrect this thread for a few excellent beers I've been drinking lately. First off, Bells Hopslam came.out and I finally got a chance to try it. While it is a very good IPA, and quite strong at over 10% abv, I feel like its not as good as its hyped to be.

On the other hand, I have found my new favorite beer. Lagunitas Sucks Brown Shugga Substitute. Holy shit, this beer is simply amazing. It's listed as an imperial IPA, but at 7.8% its exteremely drinkable. It smells and tastes of intense fruity hops, mostly tropical fruits. If you like fruity, west coast style hoppy IPAs with subtle malts, this beer is for you. The only bad thing is I think its a seasonal release. My buddy and I have already bought quite a few of these from the local hyvee before it runs out. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Had that last Sunday to help with the hangover I had from Saturday night, which was my birthday. Had some really great beers. Rochefort of course, Crosendonk, Hop Ruiter, Rodenbach Grand Cru. There was only one beer I didn't really care for: http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/148/25989
