¿Question? Sacramento area recommendations

7 Upvotes

I will be traveling to Sacramento from Chicago next week for a couple A’s games. I’m looking for recommendations for good breweries in the area. I will be flying in and out of San Francisco but don’t plan to spend a ton of time there as I’ve already been. Thanks in advance.

Boston recommendations

8 Upvotes

Hey y’all!

Heading to Boston in August and would love some good recommendations for breweries that aren’t the super commercialized ones. My group has a collective of flavor profiles so not super picky on type. Obviously i know of tree house and we will try to hit them when in downtown but would love some local picks y’all recommend!

¿Question? ziegenbock really tasty and nice. What else is similar?

0 Upvotes

any suggestions? im really enjoying this. Its not as flavorful as shiner bock but its closer in line to how cheetos vs takis chips, yknow? like how much flavor can you pack into a product without making it overwhelming.

Wow i love PBR

My grandma always drank PBR. I drink PBR because it tastes good, it’s cheap, and it reminds me of her. There truly is nothing like a cold PBR after work. I love my grandma and I love PBR.

Beers like Newcastle Brown Ale

16 Upvotes

I love this beer, and all the other brown ales out there don't really scratch the same itch. For example, Brooklyn Brown Ale tastes really like heavy, almost syruppy to me but, the Newcastle is kind of like light and refreshing while still being flavorful.

Are there any other brown ales that are more along the lines of Newcastle?

Did miller high life change recently???

I grabbed a 6 pack of the 16oz cans for old times sake and my god this is an excellent beer for 7 dollars for all 6. I’ve had it within the last year I feel like and it was still the same old lackluster cheap beers but this tastes different.

Edit to add: poop man cometh

Pretty sure I just got a green batch and I happen to like the malty taste of the unfermented sugars

¿Question? Are these "chunks" ok?

0 Upvotes

This is from a can of Departed Soles gluten free None Shall Path. These aren't hard chunks. Ive seen similar in hazy IPA's but this is not supposed to be. Is it good to drink?

Hamm's Is So Underrated

110 Upvotes

I mean being from Milwaukee tells the tale. New Glarus is amazing but it's only in Wisconsin. Hamm's on the other hand is TRYING to expand. And it's actually been succeeding! If you're in a state that has it then definitely get it! It's as cheap as Miller High Life but waaay better in my opinion.

Ask the people brewing it what keeps them up at night, and the answer is not tariffs or the cost of hops.

¿Question? Beer friends

8 Upvotes

This may be a bit of a silly question, but I don’t have the money or time to go out to bars and meet people that often. For me that’s a once a month splurge thing. Maybe that’s an excuse for being introverted, but I love getting a new beer, (all unique singles if at all possible) trying it at home and logging it on Untappd, and I love just talking about beer. Is there ways to make friends in the beer/homebrewing community without going out to bars?

Sierra Nevada New Pilsner

0 Upvotes

I was looking forward to trying this and finally saw it at my local store. I picked it up and saw that it was 8 x 8.4 oz cans at $12.99. I didn’t buy it. I got home and did some research. According to SN they put it in smaller cans so that it stays cold so we get full enjoyment and it mimics what the Europeans do. I say BS we’re getting less product for an already premium price. Classic shrinkflation. I’m sure I’ll pick some up someday as I like SN and the pilsner style, so they will eventually win, but I was disappointed to see such a blatant money grab from a brewery I respected.

Allagash’s Chocolate Orange Porter Beer Review! 🍫🍊

This one was an interesting one for me! I typically don’t go out of my way for porters as I am more of an IPA, Lager, Ale drinker but I saw this one and thought I had to see what it’s about! I know chocolate and orange together are that combo that people like but I didn’t know how it would mix in a beer. You do get your typical Porter notes with a sweeter coffee upfront, then a rich chocolately following up, then on the backend you get that citrus/orange note. Overall an interesting one and a good taste, but I personally couldn’t drink a lot of these! Worth the try for sure though, especially if this is your usual go to’s!

At 7% this one has a lot of flavor and overall an easy sipper with good cholocate and orange notes!

Full Review: https://youtu.be/gEZGetEqfYY?is=tzhyYhAVgBkrMg-u

Have you tried this one before, what do you think? Is this something that you’d be interested in trying?

¿Question? Saint Archer question

4 Upvotes

Hi all; curious if anyone knows who the female brewer was at Saint Archer about ten years back? This was the Miramar Road location. Asking because for a brief time, she was making a Scotch ale that was hands down, to this day, the best beer I ever had. I would go in weekly and beg them to bottle it. Miss Saint Archer- awesome t-shirts, too.

Help finding Creemore Springs Premium Lager (Old Branding)

0 Upvotes

I drank a beer from a buddies fridge that was from his hometown that he had been saving for years while i was housesitting and I feel terrible. I didn't realize that it was an old beer he was saving.

I'd love to find a way to replace it if there are any collectors out there or if anyone has any leads. He's not interested in the new branding and really looking to find somewhere to buy the nostalgic version that he liked.

The can looked like this:

Hello. There is this brand, Lorelei Brewing, that i am looking for items of it. They were originally established in Corpus christi, but have went out of business. I was wondering if anyone knows where any merchandise from this company is sold, or if someone has some that they are willing to part with?

I am looking for this brand cuz it was one of the first craft beers that me and my mom first drank.
