Redd's, be it apple or strawberry, IS NOT FUCKING BEER!

Yeah, it's seems more like a malt or something. You're better off with cider instead of Redd's. Just thought I'd try it for the hell of it while buying a lotto ticket, even though I knew it would be trash. I tell ya, the cashier gave me a weird look when she saw the "beer", heh. Laughing

Now, if you want beer that tastes like strawberries and is actually still gaoddman beer, I can't recommend Abita's Wild Strawberry enough

Cool, I'll look for it at my next trip to Binny's. Haven't been there in a while, and have been meaning to go.

Beer or no, I admit a fondness with Angry Orchard.

Brooklyn Brown Ale. A favorite of mine. It's a lot hoppier than other browns. It's also pretty malty and very chocolatey. It's a bit like drinking a Whopper, only more bitter, because again, there's a pretty good amount of hops. These are great for cooler weather.

I personally like Blue Moon but the most affortble beer to drink longterm thats cheap to drink at the house is probably Yuengling IMHO.

Best perfect medium bodied beer I have ever had is Indio. Its dirt cheap in Mexico but its much better than Budweiser.

Schlafly Pumpkin Ale. I'm usually not a big fan of Pumpkin Ales, but this is by far my favorite one. Schlafly is a St. Louis brewery, but for reasons I'm unaware of, their pumpkin ale is brewed here in Nashville. It's only available in October and November, but I still had one sitting around in the back of the fridge.

Very full-bodied, it's 8.0% ABV, so you don't need too many. I look forward to it every fall.

I will have to give it a try - Schlafly has struck me as a bit inconsistent, but I do enjoy a good pumpkin ale. I believe I tried Woodchuck's spin on it, and it was decent enough.

Beach Bum, it is heartening to know that someone shares my love of Leinenkugel.

Oculto, infused with Blue Agave and aged in tequila barrels.

It tastes a lot like tequila. Not sure I'd drink it again, but it's definitely interesting. Got it as part of a pick-six. If any of the other five prove noteworthy, I'll post about them as well.

Oculto's different. Nice every now and again. Most people I share it with would just prefer tequila though, which is totally fair.
