Beers tend to be a personal thing, they're a lot like bands or albums in that they can define chunks of your life. Oh, in 2001 I was totally drinking sierra nevada pale ale before anyone else was.... They are time stamps, in the sense that we can see a photo of ourselves from years ago, see the beer in our hand and say, "oh yeah, that was 6 years ago, back when I was drinking "X".
What is your "X" right now?
For me, it's Bells Two Hearted Ale, it has been for about 3 years now. I'm ready for a new go-to beer which is why I'm posting this.
I'll take your responses seriously.
So how about it? What is your favorite beer?
If I am anywhere near Belgium (because everywhere else its waaaay too expensive) it would be Tripel Karmeliet. It has a flowery smell and tastes amazing! It also has around 8% alcohol. Two of those and I am good.
If I am visiting Ulm again, I go for my favorite Hefeweizen which is Barfüßer Bier. Out of all the south german wheat beers I tried (and I tired many in the 6 years I lived there) this brewery made the best ones. Its a small one that only sells to some shops in the area. If you are ever in the area, go there!
