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.

Well, beer itself is a European thing

And at least half of the beers are made in America.

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

The Great Lakes Eliot Ness looks really good. I've never had it before.

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

Lot of people I know hate Red Stripe but I think it's a decent, smooth beer. Great with lime
