Beer Fridge Staple(s)

Victory Prima Pils
Weihenstephaner HefeWeissbier
Ayinger Celebrator
Pilsner Urquell brown bottle
Sculpin or Big Eye

 

Sierra Nevada seasonals, basically. This summer I went through cases of Summerfest and this winter I suspect it will be cases of Celebration.

I also buy a ton of Riot Rye and Brewtus from my neighborhood brewery, Monocacy.

 

I keep my beer fridge stocked with plenty of:

• DirtWolf
• Ten FIDY
• Perpetual
• Yuengling
• Rochefort 10
• Boon Geuze
• Imperial Biscotti Break (when available)

 

There's a few beers that show up in my fridge with regularity.

Schneider Weisse Aventinus Eisbock.
GLBC Eliot Ness.
Ayinger Brau Weisse.
Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout.

Beyond that, it's all variable. Some stuff shows up more often than others.

 

I basically have styles in 12oz. that I keep around as staples. The particular beers may rotate but often include:

IPA: GF West Coast, Pizza Port: Swami's IPA, Stone IPA,
Stout: GF Double Stout (almost always have this in the fridge.) And lately lots of FW Velvet Merlin, Stone Coffee Milk Stout, Narwhal
Pilsners: Urquell, FW Pivo Pils Warsteiner, Summerfest (in season)...
And there are usually some other random low abv beers of miscellaneous styles.
And I try to keep some other "mild" or very "drinkable" beers for non beer geek guests (wits or blonde ales).

 

- Blazing World
- Sculpin

 

I almost always have Wachusett Larry cans on hand, except in late fall when I stock up on Celebration instead. And I generally keep a Sam Adams seasonal variety pack on hand.

 

Trillium, Heady and usually some stouts. FBS when available.

 

The mainstay/fallback/staples in my fridge are Smuttynose "Finest Kind" IPA and Pilsner Urquell.

 

lately, ive noticed i have no go-to beers in the fridge, only special release bottles. this is a (expensive) problem! this week, i vow to pick up a sixer of swamis and a sixer of anchor steam christmas ale.

 

Sculpin, Stone IPA, Celebration when in season, SN Pale Ale, and lately Terrapin Liquid Bliss. It should be noted that NOTHING stays in my refridgerator for long though...

 

Tank 7 and toilet paper have a lot in common at my house.

I get really nervous when either is in short supply around here.

 

My beer fridge is my beer cellar for aging so it's mostly full of stouts-
Expedition, Pt5, FIS, Black Note but also Kuhnhenn BB4AD, Dogfish Head 120, Rochefort 10,
Double Crooked Tree and some others.

 

Sculpin (cans)
Ten Fidy
Some sort of speedway stout variant

Jai Alai (wishful thinking)

 

Always some IPA or IIPA in the frige then I add seasonals as the seasons change. Just ending my pumpkins and stocking in with Christmas ales and stouts now,,,

 

Lunch, dirt wolf, Calcutta cutter, stowaway ipa and the substance are regulars. As everyone does I try to have new ones in there to mix in it up whenever I have the chance.

 

I was thinking that the question was more centering around what beers do you have year round that are daily accessible and that you don't WANT to sit down and analyze. I would easily say sierra nevada pale ale. ( in cans please). Someone said earlier that the recipe has changed. Maybe but its been ahoppy forward but balanced beer since its inception. And with their foundation they could have easily just rested on their laurels.

 

GL Eliot Ness
GL Edmund Fitzgerald
Fat Tire
Deschutes Mirror Pond
Sam Adams Winter Lager
Thirsty Dog Labrador Lager

 

My beer fridge almost always has Southern Tier IPA and/or Sierra Nevada Torpedo, which get replaced by Celebration this time of year. Other things come and go but these are the staples.

 

Dirtwolf, Sucks, FBS, BBastard are always in there...

Westbrook IPA/One Claw/Gose make appearances

I keep some Sam Seasonal for guests... and in the fall I always end up with a pumpkin beer of some kind that I hate and end up trying to pawn off on neighbors or my brother... current pumpkin freebies... Weyerbacher... meh
