You can add Bell's Two Hearted Ale to that list, it's one of my go-to IPAs lately. Perfectly balanced with a nice bit of malt backbone to back up the hops on the front end, with a nice smooth finish. This would probably be one of the IPAs I would give someone to try who has never had one before.


Added, wow, I am actually surprised they sell Bell's all the way that far down south! I am a HUGE fan of Bell's, their two hearted ale is my favorite IPA in the winter, in the summer I really like their Oberon ale, if you've not tried it you should give it a shot.

I'm pretty sure Bell's has a nationwide distribution, because they're from Michigan and I get all their beers here in Southern California. I just tried Oberon for the first time a few days ago, and the description was right on point. Definitely a great summertime ale. It had such a relaxing kind of taste (that sounds weird but idk how else to describe it) that it almost made me want to just slump down in a chair outside in the shade or something.

Speaking of Bell's, I'm not usually a big fan of porters (I don't like coffee much at all, and porters are known for having a coffee/roasted malt kind of taste), but I tried Bell's Porter for the first time today and it was fantastic. Bell's has really been gaining stock on my list of favorite breweries lately.

WELLLL one decent reason is because cheap & "watery" beers are great for drinking games, since they let you play a ton of rounds. Sometimes the game is more fun than the beer, ya know?

*ALSO, more importantly, quality isn't really a factor (at least for me) when I'm buying stuff in bars to try and pay back people who had just bought drinks for me. :P Of course I'm going to be cheap then, they barely even taste it.

I definitely agree with you about people buying anheuser-bus** stuff for casual drinking, though. It's pretty blegh and doesn't make sense. I'm just listing all the stupid reasons why people might give in and actually buy them.
