Your beer of choice.

We all have our favorite shave soap or razor but how about your favorite beer.
Here's my seasonal choices... What's yours?
Fall/winter..Franziskaner Hefeweizen w/ a slice of orange

Spring/summer... A ice cold Corona or a bud light lime..

Actually I'll drink any beer handed to me and not complain... We should never complain when it's free... Lol.

Any time all-time favorite domestic: Anchor Steam
All-time favorite import: Pilsner Urquell
Runner-up: Yuengling Lager
Summer: Shiner Bock
Fall: Dogtoberfest (Flying Dog Brewery)
Winter Holidays: Winter Storm Imperial ESB (Clipper City Brewery)

I like many different beers depending the Season and or mood, but my all time favorite is the regular Alt Bier from Uerige.

I've been grooving lately to Oskar Blues Brewery Old Chub Nitro Scotch Ale. Good stuff!

Unless ruled out on a "beer" technicality mine is Ommegang Abbey Ale.

Lagunitas Little Sumpin' Ale never lets me down

My favorite all around right now is Shiner Bock. It's always good.
If I'm having tacos I like Negra Modelo. With Brats I like Spaten Optimator. Pizza, probably Boulevard Pale Ale.

Cheers

Depends on occasion:
Yuenling for general consumption
Stella Artois for sitting in front of fire and generally I love most Belgians

Where is the American Stella Artois brewed? I know they have breweries in several countries, not just Belgium.

Negra Modelo is great. I only have Spaten Optimator when I go to Fredericksburg, TX. It goes great with the sauerbraten at Der Lindenbaum.

I love IPA. All IPA's.

Currently I'm hooked on Phillips Amnesiac.

I have a hard time finding the Optimator sometimes so I have been going with Warstiener Dunkel. It's good but not quite as good.

That is seriously some good beer!

This is seriously my all time favorite beer, but since it is incredibly difficult to find even when it is in production and there isn't a distributor in Louisiana that sells it, I have to acquire it through creative means...

This is my go-to beer for the warmer months...

St. Arnold fancy Lawnmower

My beer of choice during the warmer months is a good Helles lager. Shiner made one for a little while, Southern Tier is making one this year.

The area around Austin, TX is known as German Hill Country, due to the large amount of German immigrants that found their way there. They have access to the best beer in the state

Regarding my selection of beers I'm not too seasonal, however, Deschutes Brewery puts out Jubelale as their winter ale, it is superb. For awhile I was on a porter and stout kick. Black Butte Porter, Guinness, Obsidian Stout were some that I frequented. Although it is difficult to beat a good IPA and Russian River brews one called the Blind Pig and it is excellent, click here to see it http://russianriverbrewing.com/brews/blind-pig-ipa/ Laurelwood's workhorse IPA is great, as is their lighter ale called Mother Lode Golden. Lastly, Rogue's Dead Guy Ale is smooth and tasty, it is one I've enjoyed recently. Well, this was fun. Cheers!

The Germans (including my relatives) really settled in Central Texas because they saw all the moss in the oak trees and thought it was sauerkraut. I'm Scottish too so that's why I tell that story.
