What’s your favourite beer?

Blackberry Session Ale from 4 Mile Brewery on Vancouver Island. I don't really like too much beer. But when I did have some this was it.

Kind of late on this one, but some Sapporo is brewed by Sleeman. I'm not too sure which can is the Sleeman version. I think the big solid head smacker can is brewed in Japan.
You should try Kirin, but once again it is not all brewed in Japan.

I think the sleeman version is in a regular can and your right about the head smacker can it was the original made and imported from Japan. Try crushing that beauty with one hand !
 
while i was training for PL ing i never had a beer for about 12yrsish. i mentally wrote off beer as a drink for peasants to get drunk on. once i could mentally relax on diet and training i drank a beer i was offered. it was like i discovered something new and i had to tell the world about it. beer is like women. no law say i cant try them all but on a after a day of labour in the dirt and sun, nothing is better than a lemony and foamy hefeweizen or maybe a saison or pil or session or pale ale.....

Yes the big ones are, had 2 last night😆
 
I have pretty much stopped drinking, so tonight after 7 weeks of sober, decided I’d try a couple of craft beer.
I figure if I’m nit drinking in volume might as well try some different stuff.
 
Bud light occasionally I’m not much of a drinker which a lot of people surprised by it since I’m Russian they automatically think I’ll be drinking vodka lol

See I have smoked since I was 14, now 48, so about 7years ago, I stopped smoking and drastically cut down my drinking when my grandson moved in with us, his parents were meth heads, so I figured I should take better care of myself so he had us around till he was grown.
So I reduced my drinking to once a week. So I’d smoke 1/2 pack of cigarettes and drink 6 beer. My wife the other half and a bottle of bubbly wine. We used to party, so this was a huge reduction.
I had no issues not smoking the rest of the week.
But I finally wanted to stop smoking completely, I have noticed, since I am almost 50 lbs of muscle heavier than my dad or brother, (so heavier than what I was genetically predisposed go likely be) that my breathing isn’t the best with the extra mass and smoking even once a week, so I figured, more cardio, no smoking before I get COPD.
So on New Year’s Day, we did not smoke or drink. That was the end. I haven't had a beer since then, but do feel secure enough to have a beer or two without wanting a cigarette now.
Btw, I’m irish, drinking was my life at one time as well. But hey, have fun for me, I will live thru others, lol
Sorry for the story, lol, it’s my MO.

I've tried Kirin and I like that too. Japanese tend to not make tastes too strong. For example, most of their desserts are not sweet at all. I find the same with beer - the taste is mild and may people would (for a reason) call it watery but that's how I like it; some beer taste and as refreshing as soda water.
 
I've quit drinking beer for a couple reasons (no wine either) but I used to drink a lot of wheat beer. It's so delicious.

I do treat myself to one here and there. Nothing beats one when you're on a patio in the summer sun.
 
I am not a beer drinker at all. It takes an ideal situation for me to want a beer.

On a hot summer day after doing a manual labour job, I enjoy a very cold beer. Keiths, Labatt Blue, Kokanee are good.

Must be from a bottle or a glass. I dislike canned beer.
