    Building on todays hangover theme, are there any beers or breweries that always kick your ass the next day. For me it is unfortunately Bottle Conditioned Belgian Beers. One of my favorite styles, so complete abstinence is not an option. A couple breweries always bog me down the next day as well no matter the style (six point being my personal worst offender lately). I know myself well enough to only have these brews when there is a chance I will be able to lick my wounds for a few hours the day after.

    My question is, do you have any styles or breweries that you avoid or only rarely consume because of the after effects?

    Most AB/Inbev stuff. Hell, Budweiser flat out gives me the shits.

    It's prob just superstition, but American Grand Cru's seem to kick my butt like no other. Even when consumed in moderation.

    New Belgium and Odell... in only for the reason that here at Fort Collins they are the most common breweries brought to parties.

    Ruination. The old version. Drank two and felt like 12 the next day. Generally avoid Stone products now.

    On the other hand last time I was in the UK, we were drinking cask and felt like could run a marathon the next morning...

    Guess it's different with everyone...

    Not sure about anything specific, but it usually happens when I drink the dregs. Maybe it's a mental thing.

    Budweiser does me no favors, if i'm drinking to get drunk or playing drinking games i strongly prefer other cheap beers.

    other than that, no one beer/brewery/style gives me a worse hangover or definitive hangover.

    i'll be honest, i get hungover pretty easily and that's after years of drinking. drinking really heavy one day will give me an all day hangover the next day. i'm talking, wake up at 8-10am and be hungover as fuck until the minute i go to sleep at night. dreadful days, nothing will get rid of a bad hangover but sleep.

    Pretty much anything above 10% is a one and done situation for me.

    Wine always makes me super dehydrated

    OP, I got wicked hangovers even from a single Sixpoint Resin. Always drink a ton of water/pretty young. Didn't get it after drinking 4 Bengalis however.

    Kinda hit or miss for me. I had thought I had a problem with Belgian yeasts, but that hasn't proven to be true. Still, after a headache from Delirium Tremens that I suffered years ago, I won't go back.

    Cheap lagers. I swear the buzz is more mellow and I stay in control with good beer, good scotch etc... Anything like cheap beer, whiskey....not good in any way.

    Overly bourbon barrel stouts or boozy DIPAs.

    Amazing: High alcohol beer gives me the most hangovers.
