Ever try Fence Post from the Gadsden Brewery? It's pretty damned tasty.

ETA. Misread. You said IPA. That's an ale.

I haven't had many beers that I didn't like. Many a few super-IPA's that weren't for me. I'm not opposed to drinking Coors Light at a bon fire or tailgate. I just bottled a Kolsch homebrew this evening. It's light, super smooth, and has a light hop presence. It's delicious.

I like all kinds, but for the average day of BBQ, ball games, and just getting tanked, it's usually plain ol' Miller Lite. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's the BEST by any stretch, but it's cheap and goes down pretty easily.

My go-to is Yuengling Lager like every Pennsylvanian. I enjoy all types though. It just depends. We have some decent IPAs and APAs here in town I like but I love a good wheat beer (German Hefeweissens, UFO White, ect.)

Darker beers. I love brown ales, stouts, porters, nut browns.... fricking love it. I'm not really an IPA or wheat beer guy.

Give me an IPA during the summer and a cream or milk stout in the winter and I'm one happy camper. Bell's Two Hearted or Ballast Point Sculpin are my favorite IPAs while Souther Tier Choklat and Cigar City Moat Water are my favorite stouts.


Can you get Grapefruit Sculpin?

It's the tits.

Seriously.

I'm just happy to see that my favorite brewery is getting out there.

Ballast Point is the shite. I learned how to home brew from those guys back in the day, their brews have always been on point and over shadowed by Stones marketing machine.

Locally, it's always been considered a real pisser. Everybody here started from nothing, but Stone went full on with their marketing.

They changed the game. In a good way.

While Stone was pushing their brews, they started a local distribution company to push all the other stuff, knowing it was in their best interest.

As Stones rep became a nationwide brand, they also pimped the other breweries here, and San Diego became a craft brew Mecca.

And then it spread like a wildfire. It's been fun to watch.

I like the stouts also. Tall Grass Buffalo Sweat, Sammy Smiths Chocolate stout Mothers Winter Grind is a good one from Springfield. Will go lighter in the Summer and enjoy a good IPA.

Damn this is a hard question. I love all different types of beer.

On a scorcher during the summer after mowing the grass or playing golf I love a cold fricking Coors light.

If I'm going somewhere to have a few beers with friends I'm going to have an IPA.

If it's cold I love a stout, but mainly stick to bourbon in the winter.

Craft beers are awesome and I enjoy finding something new all the time.

This beer hits me like a load of bricks. Like 2 or 3 and I am done.

IPA's are my favorite. I'm currently addicted to the Grapefruit Sculpin from Ballast Point. Two Hearted Ale by Bell's is my favorite.

In the winter I love stouts and I've recently grown to like porters. Founder's Breakfast Stout is my favorite stout, and Druid City Brewing's(Tuscaloosa) Downtown North Porter is my favorite porter.

I also like a good wheat ale every now and then, especially at the pool. Bell's Oberon is my go to. Wish I could get Three Floyds Gumball Head here, as it is by far the best wheat I've ever had.

I'll drink a Pale Ale, but they're all kind of the same to me. Same with Saisons.

No freaking thank you to that.. I have a really developed palate but I'm not even going there. The Westbrook Gose beer is the nastiest thing I've ever tried

Absolutely. SD IPA's, to break it down to a smaller scope.

Stone and Ballast Point to really get 8 digit coordinate on ya.

I'm home brewing a lot these days. Several ambers. Working on a Kolsch for football season. Need some upgrades on equipment for porters.

Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale


I had that once on tap. Very good but more expensive than your typical premium beer.
