    I agree. As soon as I did it, I felt like a dick.

    Not exactly sure what is meant by "random."

    My interpretation is: lesser known beer that you were surpirsed by.

    If that's the case, then Jenlain is my most recent experience.

    Like, Like Like
    A thousand times 'like'
    Include those that post only links to reviews, cellars, etc.
    The only time that this is acceptable in my mind is when it is a link to another nearly identical thread, as that is in fact a continuation of the conversation all at once.

    I was just going to say that one! I bought it in a mix-a-six. A very nice light beer for the summer with tons of flavor.

    EDIT: Going to buy a six pack soon.

    Carnegie Porter deserves a better fate than being relegated to a cooking ingredient, it's one of the better beers produced by Carlsberg Sweden and decently priced at that.

    I've actually had that nest white ale once a couple years ago, I thought it was delicious. I have been keeping an eye out for it forever but the only place I saw it was at the Thai fusion restaurant I had it at.

    I decided to take this premise literally, and created an algorithm* to search the entire BeerAdvocate website for every possible beer. Then, it would randomize the results, and feed out a list of beers, ten at a time. From that list, I would select a beer that I really like, thus meeting all the requirements from the OP. I came up with Rochefort 10, Reissdorf Kolsch, and SNPA.







    *I actually did no such thing.

    If there's a such thing as a "random" beer, you shouldn't be on Beer Advocate. I'm no ticker but with the selection, today, you should always try something new.

    I'm keeping Rosa well stocked this summer. It's just fruity and dry enough to work on a hot day when you feel like something a bit different than the usual IPA/DIPA.

    I love NG Fat Squirrel. I don't know how random it is, but apparently it's not well loved enough for NG to make it every year. I'm going to miss it this Fall.
