    So a friend needs to bring a craft beer
    to a party. He asks your opinion of what
    to bring. What would you recommend
    that would be a safe bet?

    I would say to bring [​IMG]

    What would you tell him/her to bring?

    Good Luck finding that on the shelves in the U.S. of A. (Well, actually, if you found it, it'd be bad luck). Besides, being a Heineken-owned brand few would call it craft. Exactly who is this "friend" you'd recommend it to? :smiley:

    Zombie Dust. Close call between that and PseudoSue, but I'd go with ZD by virtue of the fact that you can get it on 12-ounce bottles.

    Ayinger Bavarian Pils or Jarhundert bier. Yes I know I misspelled it.

    Freshness caveat highly expressed here -- nothing like a sour Pils or gushing export strength Helles (voice of experience).

    Our family July 4th Party included the above and surprisingly Stone (popular with youngsters - in their 20s). To be honest, any beer on the 4th of July tasted awesome as we sat in the pool and talked stories.

    Well at least I preempted the spelling caveat. :wink:

    I don’t know any of my Bud Light drinking friends who wouldn’t call it craft but that’s neither her nor there:sweat_smile:
