The Mixed Six That Defines You

I'm limiting this to pint or 12oz beers only, because when have you ever seen a bomber six pack?
(in no particular order)
1. BCBS 2. Jackie O's Champion Ground 3. Heady 4. BA Bomb! 5. Fatheads Hop Juju 6. Westy 12

 

1) Hop Stoopid- Love a piney IPA with lots of malt.
2) Korbinian- Liquid bread.
3) Aventinus- It's like a peppery Hefe, delicious!
4) Founders- Breakfast Stout. Start the day off right.
5) Two Hearted- Good anytime.
6) Boulder- Shake Chocolate Porter. Dessert in a glass.

 

Sticking with 12oz stuff I'd say:
Unibroue La Fin Du Monde
Sixpoint Resin
Founders Breakfast Stout
Weyerbacher Insanity
2 random beers I've never had before

 

Sorry. Six beers that define me haven't been brewed. Yet. But I did find three:

Surly Cynic
May Hill Brewing Over the Hill [substitute PtE if this is not available]
Greenbush Apathy

But I would also need:
Sarcasm Stout
Overweight Ale
Indigestion Pale Ale

 

Old Rasputin- The dark side
Pizza Port Pick Six- The light side (and reminds me to get some pizza!)
Celebrator Dopplebock- The sweet side
Cascade Noyaux- The sour side
Alpine Pure Hoppiness- The bitter side (obviously)
Westmalle Triple- The classic side

 

Tough to narrow it down, but I'll go with:

Ayinger Celebrator
Weihenstephaner Vitus
Kasteel Donker
Gulden Draak
BCBS
Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout

 

Kent Falls Solstice
Duvel
Ommegang Hennepin
Weihenstephaner Hefeweissebier
Westmalle Tripel
Lindeman's Cuvee Rene Gueuze

Predictable, dependable, world class.

 

Liquid pumpkin pie!

 

What defines me is I want to be considered for replacement role for that guy in the World's most interesting man commercials.

 

Mexican Cake
Bissel Bros Swish
Treehouse Haze
RAR Pulp
BA Dark Apparition

1. Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout - would pick this over all of the ubiquitous standard (Non-BA) impy stouts (FIS, Expedition, Yeti, etc.). Plus at $7.99 a 4/pack...
2. Deschutes Fresh Squeezed - first IPA that wowed me and led to such beers as Todd, NvU, GoneAway, etc...
3. North Coast Scrimshaw - my favorite domestic Pils. Clean, clean, clean...
4. Upland Wheat - developed a taste for this in college, triggered my search for better beers.
5. Weihenstephaner Hefe - I don't drink Upland Wheat anymore.
6. Busch Light - haven't had one sine I was 20, but I've consumed more of this than any other beer.

 

Anheuser Busch Bud Light - We all started somewhere. And I enjoyed drinking years before I began appreciating beer. Bud Light was the rocket fuel that propelled countless weekends down the Shore, all nighters in the East Village and a myriad of other youthful indiscretions.

Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA - The beer that sparked my love for craft brew.

Alpine Beer Company Hoppy Birthday - A beer that inspired a "pilgrimage". A road trip to drink beer that highlighted that beer can be so much more than liquid in a class, the journey, the people met along the way, those who you share the miles with . . .

Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin - I still think it is cool that BP was not too cool or complacent to tinker with a classic. "When you are green you grow. When you are ripe you rot."

Kane Brewing Co. Head High - I've long thought Bruce was the best my home state had to offer. But, KHH gives The Boss a run for his money. (Even though West Coast distribution is probably a long way off.)

Firestone Walker Brewing Co. Krieky Bones - A sour that opened my eyes to a new style and the fact that there are many untold chapters in my craft beer journey.

3. Weihenstephaner Original
4. FW Velvet Merlin
5. Stone Enjoy By Unfiltered
