    WHat Beer do I like?

    Tons of different types. But I rarly drink more than one to three beers at any one occasion any more. I enjoy sitting back and having a nice beer. But I enjoy brewing a nice cup of coffee too.

    My favorite beer is really an evolution of the "taste I'm in" at the time and how my taste has evolved (or...at times...devolved).

    One of my all time favorite (espeicially fresh on tap at location) is Goose Island beers. Pretty much pick any flavor/type you want from their "standard" Honker's Ale to (at the pub) their nitrogen IPA...smooth as silk yet layered with flavors. Down one of these with their homemade chips, and a peppercorn crusted burger toped with whole roasted garlic cloves, dussledorf mustard, stilton blue cheese on a pumpernickle bun with an oatmeal stout...*mouth watering*...yumm!

    Samual Adams is another "stand-by" that is easy to get...and has some decent flavor. Decent...but I'd much prefer a Goose Island, Pete's Wicked Ale, Sierra Nevada (if I'm in a hoppy mood) or my favorite SAmuel Smith Taddy Porter, Oatmeal Stout or a sippin' double bock...on and on.

    Add into this mix other brews from around the world. Guinnes has always just fallen into the mix for me as being one of the crowd...not one to stand above it. But, no...not bad by any means. But there are certainly some great beers to try both from all over the world. But no...I'd stay away from the big brew names here in the US as well, if your going after taste


    *cheers*

    OH man, you just made me sooo hungry. I like a stout with a good pizza. Sam Adams just never did it for me but a lot of my friends love it. I'll have to give a few of your choices a try. What do I have to loose?

    As far as the coffee, yeah, I drink more coffee than beer these days. I like the Kona blend. Whole beans so that I can grind up just enough fresh. I get the chocolate beans as well. These are gross by themselves, but 2 or 3 beans mixed in with the Kona is nice once in awhile. After I grind them up I sprinkle just a bit of cinnamon into the grinds. Not too much though, just a sprinkle. I used to put this in after it was brewed but if you put it in the grinds first the filter takes out that gritty feeling you get at the bottom of the cup.
    Sometimes a little whipped cream in the cup is good. I like it in the cup first instead of on top. It never hurts to put a little Irish cream in your cup as well. heh heh heh...

    Are we off topic enough yet?

    Hi,

    You made me hungry.
    I too don't drink more than 1-3 beers at any one sitting. I do like a good strong black coffee though. I am drinking Tchibo's-Kenya Dark Roast at the moment (does my insomnia no good at all).

    Peace

    Bernd

    Well done for changing direction!
    I roast my beans in a stainless steel bowl over the cooker for a couple of minutes. Then grind them very fine and brew them in a Siemens Perculater.
    Black no milk or sugar in a proper coffee cup. Thats it.

    I wouldn't get offended if you said who your favorite actor is.

    I just use the usual drip coffee type. Do you still use the old style brewers?
    Don't give any to an old lady in your drive threw window.
    Water boils at 212F. That lady complained that her coffee was 180F. Too hot for her.

    They do brew an amazing cup of coffee, at the right temperature and look very cool to boot. I am sure Amazon U.K. would post to you.
    It's the best coffee maker I have had.
