There have been a few threads about beer over the past couple days (one of my favorite topics), but I thought we could use one more discussing good craft beers as opposed to the macros like Bud and Miller/Coors. To answer the question in the other thread; "Do any other beers compete with Bud Light?", the answers is yes and I'll be drinking a few tonight that are miles beyond; Sierra Nevada Bigfoot, Victory Hop Devil, and Great Lakes Eliot Ness.

Boris, The Hop Devil didn't do much for me. When I drink an IPA I want a hoppy kick to the mouth. Some IPA's that I like are Bell's Two hearted ale, Dogfishead 60 minute, and Modus Hoperandi (by Ska).

Duvel is the best ... its Belgian, and the buzz makes you feel like you did a bong hit. Fantastic, and delicious:

I agree it's not my favorite IPA (love 60 minute and Two Hearted), but none the less I still think it's a decent beer just like most from Victory. And it's much better than Bud light.

Shit's 10.5% alcohol as well... another Belgian one that tastes good and knocks on your ass like BAB's.

Had Bell's Two Hearted Ale the other night. It is Bell's IPA and I really enjoyed it.
