Beer Appreciation Thread!

[GL]

nope i prefer german and czech beer
you know, those which aren't artificially flavoured or taste like dishwater

i have heard good things about canadian beer, too. but the only one i could taste yet (moosehead lager) didn't do anything for me at all

Dishwater? Dishwater?

I hope you know that you have insulted my beer.

I have no choice but to kick your ass from here to next Tuesday.

I'll try not to bruise your face.

And by the way, this brew is German and Czech:

Shiner was incorporated in 1890 by German and Czech immigrants. In its 96 years, the brewery had starts and stops which one can find in its name:

• Shiner Brewing Association 1909-1914
• Home Brewing Company 1914-1915
• Petzold & Spoetzl 1915-1918
• Spoetzl Brewery and Ice Factory 1933-1934
• Spoetzl Brewery 1934-Present

A group of Shiner businessmen incorporated Shiner Brewing Association in 1909, with Herman Weiss as the first brewmaster. Weiss had closed his brewery in Galveston (Weiss and Sons brewed “Belgian White and Brown Beer” to move to Shiner. The founders offered the plant for lease again in 1914. Kosmos Spoetzl, a German immigrant brewmaster situated in San Antonio, learned of the Shiner operation and co-leased the facility with Oswald Petzold with an option to buy in 1915. Spoetzl had attended brewmaster's school and apprenticed for three years in Germany and worked for eight years at the Pyramids Brewery in Cairo, Egypt, and then worked in Canada before moving to San Antonio in search of a better climate for his health. He came with the recipe for a Bavarian beer made by his family from malted barley and hops.

Kosmos Spoetzl bought a Ford Model T, and with a couple of kegs iced down in the back, he drove the country roads offering thirsty farmers ice-cold beer. Spoetzl produced "Old World Bavarian Draft," which was a heavier all-malt German-style lager. Besides the Pearl and Lone Star Breweries, the only other breweries in operation in Texas in 1890 were a few small, locally operated enterprises that were sustained by loyalty, low prices, and fresher products. Of the thirteen Texas breweries that were operating in 1890, only Lone Star, the San Antonio Brewing Association (Pearl), Herman Frank, the Dallas Brewing Company, and the Texas Brewing Company in Fort Worth survived intact until Prohibition in 1919.

it's the only beer i can say I enjoy. Other beers I can tolerate if Stella isnt available

 

[winterknight]

Good beer is good.

American beer is not good beer.

And in what all chavs everywhere will consider blasphemy, Kronenbourg is better than Stella.
