I’m an occasional beer drinker. I usually drink hard alcohol on the rocks, or wine, but a beer every so often isn’t bad.

I usually am a very light beer drinker, not so much for taste, but for caloric sake.

Amstel Light, Lager  
Rating : 8 of 10  
Value : 7 of 10  
Probably the best tasting light beer out there. Has a very decent amount of taste, doesn’t really taste like light beer. Doesn’t fill you up like regular beer is. A little expensive, but not so overpriced like most other imported beer. Doesn’t really give you a hangover if you drink a lot of them. Still pretty potent.

Miller Light, Lager  
Rating : 6 of 10  
Value : 8 of 10  
Another very tasty light beer. But taste isn’t everything - yes, there is flavor and taste, but it’s not that good… After a couple, I find myself needing to switch to something that doesn’t taste like it. Doesn’t leave you filled up like regular beer. Kinda weak, I need to probably drink a couple more Miller lights than other beers to get the same buzz. Not bad if I am only going to have a couple.

Bass Ale, Pale Ale  
Rating : 9 of 10  
Value : 6 of 10  
A fuller beer that doesn’t taste like shit! It’s not overly heavy, it’s not overly filling, but seems to be the perfect blend of whatever the hell they put in beer. Definately more expensive than most beer. Did I mention it’s very tasty? It’s almost perfect, and I like light beers usually.

I’ll do more later, the nyquil is starting to kick in.

Social Drinker  
Killian’s Irish Red  
For the most part, I absolutely love this beer. It’s a little sweeter than Molson Canadian, and in the same general range of taste. There is the occasional “bitter batch” which just pisses me off. The bitter batch shows up for me probably once out of every 20 times I buy it.

It’s a bit more expensive than the popular canadian beers, but when it’s not the bitter batch, it’s definitely worth the extra money. (regular price: $5.99 for a 6 pack, 9.99 for a 12. doesn’t come in any other sizes…at Tops anyway. haha)

occasional now, few years ago i used to drink alot of beer cuz i worked at a store that sold tons of small brew stuff

i love small brew beers. usually they are unfiltered and thats my fav. the less preservatives n a beer the better

Ommmegang, belgian ale  
rating 10/10 (its my fav)  
value 8/10 (comes in 22 oz bottles usually, and has more alc% so one bottle has some kick)  
super smooth flavor. little to no bitter aftertaste. has a very nice aroma. if i still drank beer often enough, this is the stuff i would justify buying

Flying Bison Oatmeal Stout, Dark  
8.7/10  
7.5/10  
Usually a dollar more per pint than the house brand. This beer is full bodied with little aftertaste. Not too bitter and very smooth. It cuts great with Samual Adams Cherry Wheat too!

Buffalo Brew Pub Oatmeal Stout, Dark  
8/10  
9/10  
Very affordable and tasty. Not quite as smooth as the Flying Bison but definitely good.

Blue Moon Belgian White, Belgian/Wheat  
9/10  
7/10  
Probably the smoothest beer I have ever drank. More than $6 per 6 pack but definitely tasty.

Youngs Double Chocolate Stout, DARK  
8/10  
7/10  
I’ve only drank this once but it’s heavier than Guinness but smoother too. It did give me a headache after drinking.

Mill St Coffee Porter (Toronto)  
Rating (9)  
Value (7)  
Comments  
This is one of the best porters I have ever tasted, brewed by a master brewer in an old Gin mill located in the old distillery district, TO. The coffee comes from a coffee roastery right next door.

It is a little hard to come by, seeing as they will not ship to the US, you have to go get it yourself at the brewery, or find someplace over the border that carries it, and bring a couple 6packs back.

Custom Brewcrafters Hazelnut Brown Ale

Rating 10/10  
Value: depends on if its happy hour or not

Similar in fullness to a bass or kilians, but with an amazing hazelnut flavor. If I had to drink one beer and only one for the rest of my days it would be this.

Available at Alternative Brews. Sooooo good.
