WestcoastCanuck 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 We don't get that many American Beers up here (other than Bud, Miller etc), so if your favourite beer isn't on here, that's why. Same thing with a lot of European beer.In no real order.1.) Big Rock Traditional Ale (Calgary, Alberta). If you haven't tried this, go out of your way to get a 6 pack. It is worth a road trip.2.) Shaftsbury Wet Coast Wheat Ale. Sort of like a Heifeweissen, without the gross parts.3.) Bavaria (Holland). Much better than Heineken (which is also from Holland). Bavaria 8.6 is also good for a strong beer.4.) Duvel Golden Ale (Belgium). I think I got the right one. It is from Belgium, comes in 355ml single bottles similar to Grolsch.5.) Peroni (Italy). The first half of one tastes gross, the rest are awesome.Honourable mention: Lighthouse Lager (from Vancouver Island, BC), Kronenburg (French), Okanagon Springs 1516 (BC), Red Stripe (Jamaica), Old English (America).

SBriand 4 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 If you ever see it on a menu or on the shelf I suggest getting a Hoegarrden. It's a Belguin beer. Link to post Share on other sites

socalpoker_j 1 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I think I had that in Mexico. Is it Mexican?Yea... I think its the smoothest tasting of all the Mexican beers along with Corona, however you don't need any lime or salt for Dos Equis. On the other hand Pacifico and Modelo Negro leave a bad beer aftertaste in my mouth. Link to post Share on other sites

WestcoastCanuck 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 HoeGarden is fantastic. If you get in the massive glass that most bars serve it with, it is the $$.Dos Equis has a label of XX right? Link to post Share on other sites

WestcoastCanuck 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 Why don't you guys just drink the spray straight from the skunk?It smells like crap out of the 355ml pop tops, but it is still decent. It is pretty good out of the 500ml cans. Link to post Share on other sites
