What's your favorite beer style?

Ale. But only by a slight margin over Lager.

 

I checked my top 50 and....American Wild Ale wins!

Edit: Btw, there are 21 different styles in my top 50.

 

IPA

 

IPA, no question. Pretty funny that I didn't even like IPAs a couple of years ago. Stouts would be #2 for me.

 

I have to go with rauchbier.

 

Smoked beers for me! Just don't make me choose between Rauchbiers and Smoked Porters.

 

Quads

 

I'm making you!

 

Ha! Allright, as your powers of persuasion are too mighty for me to resist-
Rauchbiers it is, damn you!

 

<-------stouts!

 

IPAs

 

Ha! I checked your beer ratings....no wonder it was such a tough call. You get points for having Alaskan Smoked Porter up there. I've been drinking it for 12 years, when it comes out later this year.

 

Man, that's a really tough question. My answer would depend on the day. Every day I come home from work, go to my beer fridge, and stand there just thinking about what I'm in the mood for. If you held a gun to my head, I'd probably say IPAs because that seems to be what I choose first more than anything else. Stouts would probably be last on the list. I like them, just not enough to crave one every day like I do IPAs.

 

I like dubbels, tripels, quads, doppelbocks, old ales, strong ales, hefeweizens, barley wines, and stouts most. Clearly I must be in a light beer phase.

 

I used to get it by the case from Belmont Station a ways back, when I was in NY (and it doesn't seem like shipping to NJ is really an option these days). Lately, though, I have managed to trade for it, so that was nice. And I could probably do it again, but recently we got Captain Lawrence Smoked Porter and it is really good and meeting my needs for now (even though I do prefer Alaskan).

Keep up the streak, though, man- you have access to something really special.

 

Laws yes, the Captain brews some tasty stuff! Drink up...

 

Saison

 

Probably Quadrupels, but there's a case to be made for Irish Stouts.

 

I give the highest ratings to sours, but I can't say they are my favorite style. There are several styles that I like equally despite rating them differently. I can't pick one style as a favorite.
