What is the best tasting beer?

[Buzz Rules]

What is the best tasting beer? I don't really drink it but I do like to make beer batter recipes so I would love to know Disboarders, what are your favorites?

Root beer
I can’t stomach any other kind.
Sorry about that. I know that’s not helpful. Lol.

It is a bit like asking if you think Coke or Pepsi tastes better..............LOL. Everyone has their own preferences.

Yep, and that's why I'm asking for their preference. There's no wrong answer.

Some of us go a little deeper than that to Shasta Cola, Sam's American Choice and RC. LOL.
But very true. I don't drink enough beer to say, but I had a Blood Moon Wheat Ale while on vacation that I really liked. Budweiser was my go to brand for decades.
My choice of adult beverage usually is some type of wine. Never got into hard liquor.

I live in Sam Adams country. The Oktoberfest is my favorite one, but I like most of them.

You can't go wrong with Bell's Two Hearted

Bud Light ...............to soon?

All joking aside nothing too hoppy for a beer batter imho. Any full bodied lager, amber, or even a stout would work well for you.

My personal favorite for a beer batter is currently Yuengling Traditional Lager. Makes an awesome beer batter for fish.

A stout works best for a beer batter in my opinion. I've used Guinness with success....it's malty, highly carbonated for a light fry....plus, it's one of my favorite beers. A lot of people think it's a heavy beer, but I find that it's an easy beer to drink. But we mostly drink wine when we drink. When I do have a beer it's probably a Guinness draught or an ice cold corona light (in a bottle only) with two lime wedges.

I can drink one Guinness, but my second must be a mix with a lighter beer (Black and Tan). It's nice, but very filling to me. I agree that Guiness makes a nice beer batter.

Also, if you have never had it Guinness pie is a heck of a hearty meal.

Agree, it can be filling...I enjoy a Black and Tan...think the last time I had that was at the Rose and Crown at WDW back in 2010.

I live in the land of IPAs, but I usually prefer lagers and pilsners. Even if I have an IPA to start, I'll switch because they're lighter and fill me up less.

I can do an IPA, but the taste is so strong it kinda ruins your pallet the remainder of the night. If you have a salad for dinner, it will be an IPA flavored salad.

I don't drink very much of any alcoholic beverage, but I do like an occasional beer. When the urge hits, it's usually Corona with lime. I don't think that would make a very good beer batter.

For cooking with I like Yuengling or Leinenkugel Honey Weiss. For drinking Golden Road Mango Cart. The Honey Weiss adds just a touch of sweetness to beer batter or brats.

Drinking, I am a hefeweizen girl. My favorites are Erdinger, Hofbrau, and Paulaner.

For cooking, I tend to go with ambers, but still something I would drink. New Castle, Killians, Old Speckled Hen.

I am not really a beer drinker, but I will partake of the brew every now and then. Especially seasonal stuff like Samuel Adams "Jack O" (pumpkin spice). Samuel Adams "Wicked Easy" (formerly known as Sam Adams 76) is also pretty good for me (gotta watch out for "Wicked Double", that stuff will hit pretty hard).

Guinness is good, but it takes a certain mood.

I saw Bell's Two Hearted mentioned too... not bad. The light version is actually remarkably satisfying for having such a low alcohol content.

Goose Island makes some "beer hug" stuff that will absolutely knock the heck out of you.
