Damn, Tully's Beer and Wine in Wells, ME is quite possibly the best place in New England to buy beer. That is, of coarse, unless you're a pussy and you only like American-rust water beer like Budweiser and don't have enough hair on your balls to enjoy a good barleywine style ale or something of the like.
Anyone who ever even comes remotely close to that area should do themselves a favor and go there.

shit, I had some the most rediculous Belgian beers the past few weeks I've been working up there. I can't remember the names except this one:

I had another one that had a pirate on it also and it was just as good. I don't drink too many specialty Heffs although I do thoroughly enjoy Harpoon UFO, Bluemoon, and Sam's Heff.

there's nothing more annoyingly redneck then then acting like the darker your beer, the more manly man you are. I'm a fan of white ales myself.
That being said, Blue moon and Hoegaarden FTW.

[Jun 19,2007 2:46pm - DestroyYouAlot ""]
I like a beer that, were you to stick a spoon in it, would cause said spoon to stand straight up, preferably the color of black coffee and/ or molasses. That being said, a nice hoppy ale is always good to cleanse the palate. And get you fucking shitfaced.

Also, for light beer that doesn't suck:

It comes in cans now, too. So I guess that would be the official light beer of a white trash wedding.
[Jun 19,2007 5:07pm - hungtableed ""]
I don't necessarily only like "dark beers" so to speak. The color of the beer really doesn't have much weight on the alcohol content and/or flavor- if you think so you are just falling for the myth. Most Belgian ales, although they are not entirely see-through, are usually blond or semi-copper tone and they are just as brutal if not more than a lot of "dark" colored beers. I guess when it comes down to it, to be more specific, I like heavy beers - meaning heavy taste and an above average alcohol content.

I'm a fan overall, but I'm hearing that from a lot of folks that don't usually like Sam - the Winter Lager seems to win them over.

[Dec 5,2007 4:19pm - tobias boon ""]
I mean I appreciate Sam as better than average beer don't get me wrong. I just feel that alot of their varieties do not really justify the price tag. Sam Summer is also very good. And the Light is probably the best light beer out there.

holy shit! i had that stuff a few months back! potent as fuck (12% ABV) and strong coffee tones to smoothen the alcohol. definitely a good grab for the coming winter.
tobias boon said:Sam summer is also very good.
seriously? despite its drinkability i thought the mouthfeel was horrendous and lemon zest finish was swilly-nilly. harpoon summer is where its at.
anyone ever been to the Sam Adams or Harpoon breweries? i'm moving to JP soon and I'm pumped to go to the Sam Adams one now.
[Dec 5,2007 5:16pm - tobias boon ""]
Harpoon Summer is much better but I wouldn't call anything about the Sam Adams Summer horrendous. I don't know what swilly-nilly means so I can't comment on that. As I said before, it's a very good beer, not amazing.

i just agree with your point that its not really worth the price tag. if i were going to drop dough on sam adams i'd go for anything out of the brewmaster's collection (brown ale and black lager especially).
straight up, sam summer's a chick beer.
[Dec 5,2007 5:27pm - tobias boon ""]
Ha
K I totally disagree with that because the Harpoon Summer is way smoother and easier to drink so if anything that is a "chick" beer. Both of them are good; Harpoon is better, whatever.

maybe i'm just biased because i'd prefer a porter over a pale, pale wheat ale any day of the year.
