Used to really like Anchor Steam back in the day. Last time I tried it, which was probably 10 yrs ago, it tasted like molasses and I didn't rememeber that before. Maybe I got a bad bottle.
I like the Alaskan Amber. Wasn't able to bring home a growler from my trip to AK though. Saw it on tap when BF and I were in CA and bought him a pint so he could taste what I was talking about.
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

If there are any Sam Adams fans here, and you spot their winter brew "Cold Snap" on tap at your local watering hole, snag it up. The bottles are ok but this beer is special when on draft & ice cold. Bottle: 8.5/10, draft: 10/10.
Guinness is pretty high on my list. Miller lite or coors light when hot and playing golf. IPAs from Dogfish are some of my favorites whether it be 60, 90, or 120. Watch how many of 90 or 120s you drink. Sam Adams Rebel and Latitude are pretty good too. The latitude deconstructed one is kind of cool as each bottle is numbered with a different hop. Bottle 6 has all the hops.ðŸ‘Â
I'm an Atlanta boy so Sweetwater is my go to; IPA, 420, and Georgia Brown are all good. For a cheaper beer, Becks does it for me. 668 Neighbor of the Beast is good too.

Oh, where to begin! My go-to at the neighborhood watering hole is Harpoon IPA. My at-home summer sessioning and boat beer is Wachusett Light IPA. For pale ale I go with Tuckerman's (from NH) when I can find it or Maine Beer Co. MO (harder still to find). With all the great craft breweries in the northeast, this list is subject to change without notice.

I'm currently on a Victory Hop Ranch kick. It's their winter double IPA. I live about 10 minutes from their brewery so it's always fresh. I also really like chocolate stouts. Always searching for new ones. Rogue is usually a go to.

Weber Summit Kamado with SnS and Vortex.. Broil King Baron, Primo Oval Junior. Primo XL. Love grilling steaks, ribs, and chicken. Need to master smoked salmon. Absolutely love anything to do with baking bread. Favorite cool weather beer: Sam Adams Octoberfest Favorite warm weather beer: Yuengling Traditional Lager. All-time favorite drink: Single Malt Scotch
Summertime brew, either Natty Boh, or Yuengling Traditional Lager. Cooler weather, Sam Adams Octoberfest, or Great Lakes Brewing Company Edmund Fitzgerald Porter. There is another Pennsylvania brewery, Straub, that makes an awesome doppelbock, too.
AH HELL! On a hot day, If It's COLD, WET, Wild and RUNS DOWN HILL and is FREE! I really don't care whose Label is on It!
Eat Well and Prosper! From Fargo ND, Dan
