Build me a 6-pack

[RavenWood]

Mojo (a very hoppy, citrus'y IPA)
Fat Tire (there is a reason it is world famous)
Guiness stout floated over Woodchuck (use a spoon to float the GUINESS on top.)
Avalanche Ale (Breckenridge Brewery [The best of the 'big' micros])
Easy Street Wheat (O'Dell brewing, awesome 'dirty' wheat, best with a small slice of orange to open up the wheat flavors)

Do you have any preference when it comes to styles of beer?

I know that Schlafly and Boulevard (which are in your neck of the woods) have some highly recommended brews on the beer sites.



Is it Mandrin?

i looked this up becauseit just sounds yummy. where can you get it? who makes it?

Here's a delicious but affordable 6 pack:
1. Franziskaner Hefeweizen
2. Fuller's ESB
3. Young's Double Chocolate Stout
4. Shiner Bock
5. Chimay (Red, Blue or White)
6. Leffe Blonde

A nice selection of different styles, note that I don't like hoppy beers so no IPA recommendations here, if you do, then substitute something like a Dogfish Head 60-minute IPA in for any of my recommendations.

 

[BrewCommando]

• Bell's Two Hearted Ale
  • my current go-to beer.
• Stone IPA
  • high quality IPA.
• Erdinger Crystal Weizen
  • great in summer, need to pour it by putting an upturned glass over the bottle, then flipping it over and teasing the bottle upwards to let the beer out. Roll the bottle on the table after to collect the suds to be poured to top off the head.
• Old Speckled Hen (or Courage Directors)
  • purely for nostalgic reasons and much better on draught
• Stella Artois
  • pint of wife beater/pint of Nelson please, bartender
• Newcastle Brown Ale
  • bottle of dog please, bartender

Great idea. My personal Sixer (in no particular order)

1. Dogfishead 90min IPA (current favorite IPA)
2. Brother Thelonious (a dark belgian style, but any true Belgian blonde would also fit in nicely, Affligem/Grimbergen/Leffe/Duvel/Delerium/etc)
3. Guinness (draught...for strength)
4. Magic Hat #9 (current go to that can be found at almost any sports bar)
5. Grolsch (dad)
6. High Life (gdad)
