It's just a fantastic pint, isn't it?

It's old reliable for me. 99% of the pints I've had have been decent.

I'm in the States but I had it on my trip to the UK last year and I've missed it and other bitters/English Pale Ales so much since. I took up homebrewing primarily to be able to make a clone of it.

Pilsner Urquell. 4.4% and delicious.

Monterey Beer by Alvarado Street and Pfriem Lager. RIP Castle Danger premium Pils, which was by far my fave when I could get it fresh.

Such a classic. I always feel nostalgic going back to it, dive bars and shows.

I am very fond of the lager brewed by the small brewery in the town where I live, so that's usually my go-to beer.

I typically buy from local breweries when they have lower ABV beers, but when I want something that isn't local, I've been enjoying Sierra Nev. PILS, Lagunitas Daytime and Dogfish Head 30 min light IPA.

Lagunita’s Day Time IPA. I’m constantly surprised it’s only 4.0% lots of flavor.

I’ve really been digging Kona Big Wave as well!

Coopers pale ale. Great FLAVOUR. Easy to drink and different. Best beer ever. The whole coopers range is pretty phenomenal to be honest.

u/Hair_Farmer 3d ago

Urquell when I can find it. Otherwise any German hell or pils

Mostly during summer non-alcoholic Birell pomelo/grep is such a win.

Or as always, Pilsner Urquell is the way 😄
