Sibling Beers

My sister is also big into craft beers, as are most of my relatives. Those that don't drink craft tend to be wine or liquor people. Thankfully, family get togethers are usually free of BMC.

 

Sister is big on Blue Moon.

Brother gets a bad reaction to beers that are too hoppy, and goes for Brown Ales and Oatmeal Stouts.

Neither keeps AALs in the house.

 

One brother mixes Coors Light with Sierra Nevada PA. He is also borderline insane.

One brother drinks a wide variety of non hoppy beers from Leinenkugel and Sam Adams. Nothing darker than red.

 

Both my brothers drink craft, but they aren't hardcore into it like I am. It's usually Sierra Nevada or Lagunitas, mixed with some Rogue.

 

Sister drinks Shock Top, /sigh

 

Older brother is the one who got me into craft. He was pretty active on BA til the site redesign a year or two ago. He has a pretty nice cellar and homebrews once in a while. His drinking will roughly mirror a lot of the people on BA now, a lot of great, diverse beers.

My other brother will always keep craft beer and BMC products stocked. I think a lot of his friends prefer the BMC, and he prefers the craft, but is not picky.The craft he likes tends to be well-distributed brews like the German and Belgian stuff every state gets, e.g. Paulaner (despite the Heineken ownership, it's still craft right?), and Chimay.
I fall in between their craft beer levels, although I never willingly have BMC or AALs in my fridge.

 

My sister rarely drinks beer, but when she does, she drinks craft.

 

I got my brother into it when I was 22 and he was 19. Now he's 21 and waits in line for releases, stalks stores, trades for things like KH, and homebrews. We never touch BMC.

 

My brother mostly drinks German and Belgian wheat beers.

 

My sister drinks BMC light beers if she drinks beer, but she tends to go for wine more often.

My brother just recently turned 21, and he's slowly getting into craft beers.

 

My old man at the age of 60 is just getting into drinking awesome beers. Yesterday for his birthday, the family split a 6er of gumballhead and zombiedust. Allthough my g ma was not a fan, she stuck to her Miller lite, but thats ok, shes still pretty badass!

 

My brother doesn't always drink beer, but when he does, he drinks Dos Equis. A very interesting man indeed!!!

 

My brother drinks goat piss!

 

My sister and I kind of got into craft together in college: she jumped from Hefes to IPAs, I turned to the dark side of oatmeal stouts and porters.

We've both since expanded to appreciate all of it (except sours. I still haven't gotten that bug yet, but she kicks them back from time to time)
She's more into the traditional (especially german) styles than I am, as well.

My brother just turned 21 and is still in college, so he still drinks a fair amount of BMC stuff, but has a little fridge of nicer stuff for when he's alone/in the mood.

 

My kid brother who does drink goes with me to Bells whenever we are both in town visiting our folks. Im glad its something I can share with him.

 

Sisters both drink wine. Shrugs.

 

My brother usually buys either Budweiser of High Life for himself, but he does enjoy most of the craft beers that I share with him. When we go to craft beer bars, he asks me to order for him. ( He likes the wheat beers, pale lagers, browns, and most of the belgian-styles beers.)

 

Only child, so my focus has been on getting my dad into craft. He has fallen in love with Alesmith Grand Cru and now says he can't drink Bud and Bud Light anymore.

 

My brother drinks both craft and miller lite. He appriciates it and buys some sweet stuff in mix a six when traveling to Philly, Ten fidy, two hearted, mean old tom, jai alai, and others. I usually bring over a bomber to share with him whenever I come over, but come football season Sundays are spend drinking Miller Lite. (and I'm the hammered brother that drinks craft from 12-8pm) Although the super bowl was an exception when I decided to bring over about 8 bombers and he didnt have a choice.
