Buddhist Beer Brewer?

Re: Buddhist Beer Brewer?

Chet i would love to try your beer
if you ever send a bottle my way to israel i would cherish it

as for beer... i want to ask everyone.

what kind of beer do you drink? and if you drink something else what do you drink?


i personally love Guinness, its the best and pretty much the only thing i just love... if a pub has no Guinness i might leave or if im with friends and they insist on staying i would usually drink a local Israeli dark lager beer ca;;ed goldstar, failing that i will drink tuborg.

as for other thing i am a very big fan of cognacs, calvados, and malt whiskey... these are drink that should be enjoyed in moderation as drinking to much actually ruins the enjoyment of it since one should savor these drinks.
my favorite malt is laphroaig.

Outside of beer, I like a good Gin, Absinthe (something authentic and typically pricey), and Akvavit. I can't stand whiskey or bourbon of any kind - I drank too much of it as a teenager and it just doesn't go down well.

All things in moderation, and without attachments. And never behind the wheel.

And, of course, if someone has a problem with addiction ... "moderation" may mean Zero.

Chet: Yeah, fruit wheats do tend to be thinner than other beers, and thin is a turnoff for me when it comes to beer. I thought the Sam Adams beers I mentioned were thin even by fruit wit standards, but maybe it's just me.

I tried a Wild Blue once. Never again.

I toured the Ommegang brewery a few years ago. Good people, good beer. I hope you like the Three Phils.

I'm right there with you on Newcastle and Chimay ... and thanks for the tip on Maudite. I have not tried that one.

And yeah, Sam Smith's pale is my favorite. It has a bit of butterscotch taste in the finish that I just really like. I like Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale, too.

I agree with you about Shiner Bock. I've heard people rave about it, but it pales compared to other bocks I've tried. It's not bad, and if you've got a bottle I'll have one, too ... but it's not a great bock. It is Lance Armstrong's beer of choice, though, and that might have something to do with its popularity. For my money, Shiner's hefe is a standout. They add some lemon and orange peel near the end of the boil and achieve a citrus snap that is not overwhelming, but it is definitely there. I like it a lot.

Anyway, let me know when you findf a new beer and I'll do the same for you.

Jundo: Your timely reminder regarding moderation is appreciated -- and, in my case, heeded!

Here in Ireland (and I think in the UK too) just about all drink comes with the manufacturer's koan:

Enjoy alcohol responsibly
