My all time favorite is one of the original "craft" brews is Anchor Steam Beer! Brewed with steam processing in San Francisco since 1896.

It was my go to beer anytime on tap in a bar/restaurant and I always had a stash in the fridge at home. It was the gawd damned best beer I've ever tasted with seafood and sourdough bread.

Sadly it was bought out by Sapporo and sacrificed recently like a 0 pilot committing harikari! Pearl Harbored our asses again. Fuck you Japan!

Supposedly someone bought the rights to brew it again, but there's not much recent news. I will live with the fond memories.

I discovered Alaskan Amber when I was working in Anchorage/Kenai Peninsula. I love amber beer in general, especially when eating food. However, this particular amber beer will forever hold a special place in my heart because I drank it with the best meals I've ever had in my life. Halibut, salmon, king crab, oysters, clam chowder, reindeer sausage, sourdough bread......... all fresh, no bullshit processed or frozen crap.....and on and on!

To round out my favorites, which all seem to be seafood centric, I'll close this trilogy with Coconut Hiwa Porter from Maui Brewing Company. It's just an exceptional tasting brew to wash down a fresh bowl of tuna poke from the islands. My family thought I was nuts, 'cause I would go to the same restaurant and get a poke bowl every day and wash it down with a Coconut Hiwa. The damed freshest and highest grade tuna you can find right off the boat in Maui.

Only if you meant Dos XX, cause it's the only "Mexican" Beer that tastes good......primarily because it was brewed by a German Brewmeister!

Doesn’t Dos XX mean “two ladies”?

You pour down enough in Tijuana it can mean 3 and a donkey!

Speaking of Modelo, this past year or so they started all these 24 oz flavored Chelada beers. I really like the Limon Sal (salt and lime with some Tajin on the rim of a chilled glass). The other one I really like is the Sandia Picante (spicy watermelon). You can't pound them down cause they are heavily flavored, but they are a nice brew to get the afternoon kicking!

Also, I always recommend drinking when working on your firearms. I'm putting in a "faster" semi auto trigger, so seemed like a good time to drink like the cartels!

Do you drink Cheladas with or without your skirt on?

I’ve been enjoying this lately. It’s by Intracoastal Brewing Co. they brew all sorts of things about 10 minutes from my house.

If I'm drinking with certain guys on this forum, I'll wear my skirt so they know its a safe place and I'm inclusive.

Another Helles German Style Lager.... Deer Crossing From Little Harpeth Brewing in Nashville.... A Really Good Beer from the Great State of Tennessee!!!

I have had the Anchor Steam Beer and it was a good one!! I have been to the Alaskan Brewery and they make a lot of great brews... and Axe is right it pairs well with their fresh Seafood.... My fave is the Halibut!

I feel like I need a sampler pack from the local package store and branch out a little! I used to do that once in a while. But then I would always return to my favorites.

I have seen a few good ones out there, especially if you like IPAs. A good Change up every once in a while is never a bad thing!!! You never know what new favorite you may find!!
