I didn't used to like beer - I was more into hard liquor (gin and tonic, hooray). But a few years ago I finally found beer I liked at a Belgian restaurant (Flemish sour ale at Monk's Cafe, http://www.monkscafe.com/). So I've been experimenting. Today I went to a German place (http://www.ludwigsgarten.com/) that was pretty awsome. I got some kind of Oktoberfest beer that was so-so, don't recall the name: Both of these sites only have a fraction of their beer menus online.
My favorite that I can actually obtain (can't get Flemish sour ale anywhere else, it seems) is Spaten Optimator, a German dopplebock. Its dark and smooth, and a little stronger than normal (like 7% alcohol). I kinda like Guiness, but didn't like Sierra Nevada Pale Ale - both bitter, but I didn't like the flavor of Sierra Nevada.
Any thoughts on beer?
