Comfort beers

Samuel Adams: Octoberfest
Alaskan: Amber
Lagunitas: A little Sumpin' Sumpin' Ale

 

Sierra Nevada's Northern Hemisphere does it for me. Haven't found another beer like it although some come close.

 

that being said Sam Adams Boston Lager is a great fallback for me

 

My comfort beer -- at least for tonight

 

I really enjoy their Cream Stout, too. And it's priced to go!

 

Something local. Highland Oatmeal Porter would be mine.

 

A BA stout and a steak eases my duress pretty easily.

 

A fresh from the tap Bitburger, especially on a Saturday morning while the wife is shopping.

 

Lagunitas Brown Shugga
Founders Dirty Bastard

 

Being from SLC, UT., I'd have to say anything from Uinta brewery. In particular, Uinta's Cutthroat Pale Ale and Uinta's Wyld Extra Pale Ale. They are always a staple.

 

Maybe three Floyd's alpha king, obtainable and a couple two three will warm you inside.

 

i want to add guinness draught on here for me. so smooth. goes down easy

 

A big ol' Russian Imperial Stout (I'm not picky...a majority of them will do the job) always makes me feel better.

 

Victory Prima Pils

 

As others have said, I concur.
Guinness baby.

 

A big old nonic of Framinghammer... alongside a plate of bauernwurst, schupfnüdeln und kraut.

 

Two Hearted
Dirt Wolf
Victory At Sea
Old Rasputin

 

A shot of Jack, followed by a Founders Breakfast Stout does the trick.

 

If I really need some "comfort", I'd prefer something rich, complex, but familiar. Suitable brews include St. Berdardus ABT 12, Westmalle Dubbel, Old Rasputin, and Bear Republic Big Bear Black Stout.
