I don't drink a lot. I like a cold beer after work occasionally. In the mountains, I like some shine.

50/50 Dales seasoning and apple cider. Used to just use Dale's but decided it needed to be tamed down a bit. A bit heavy on the salty side for my taste. The apple cider was the first thing I tried and works for me. I've used this on probably 10 briscuits - and most have been delicious. Had a couple that I had trouble keeping the temp up (it was to damn cold to be cooking outside)(live and learn). FWIW, my wife is from Texas, and she loves my Tennessee briscuit.

Get a Big Green Egg and it won't matter if it's cold.

Try Shiner White Wing and Shocktop. I like the Shiner myself.

Disclaimer: Bourbon and Tequila are better than beer.

Agree on the disclaimer, not the beer. My taste in beer is opposite those recommendations. I like it dark. My favorite are the stouts/porters that are aged in bourbon barrels. But that's because bourbon is better. Tequila is good, but it's got to be real good for me to drink it. I have too many el cheapo tequila memories.

I've got a 4pack of KBS that I saved from last year (rated #5 beer in the world on beeradvocate.com). Have you had that before? Not really my style but I ended up with a 4pack last year. I'm having a beer tasting this weekend at my house and likely going to crack a couple of them, maybe all 4. It's bound to get messy. :)

I have not, nor have I heard of it until now. And now I must try it! I've tried a few of them, and my favorite to this point has been a stout that Bluegrass Brewing out of Louisville. I did some research and it's not sold here so I'm going to start putting relatives zip codes into their website until I find one that does get it! Then I'm going to visit said relative at my earliest opportunity!

You said your having a tasting. Beer only or will there be other libations too? I ask because I've seen several posts of yours where you seem to have good taste in drinks. Basically, what else do you drink?

I like to sip it and get a nice buzz. Too old to get drunk. I can't handle the morning after. Buy good bourbon and tequila. The cheaper the brand the worse the side effects IMO.

The problem for me is...once I get nice and tipsy I can't cut myself off. I keep going until I've gone too far...

FWIW - took a 20 year hiatus for that reason. Nothing. Rediscovered life. Now an occasional glass of red with the wife is all I enjoy.

I'm a craft beer geek, my favorite style is IPA's and DIPA's. I also really like stouts and porters, but I'll drink any craft beer at least once. Founders KBS is only released once a year, in the spring on one day, and it's usually all gone within hours. I missed it this year and didn't get any. If you like stouts look for Founders Breakfast Stout this fall, it's much easier to get, they'll have it on the shelves for a few months. It's my all time favorite stout, a perfect blend of coffee, oatmeal, chocolate and other goodness.

At this particular tasting we'll just be drinking beer, many different styles. I'm going on a run Friday and will likely pick up some Belgians, stouts, porters, saisons, sours, IPA's, just a wide variety really. And most of the guests will also bring some beer and we'll try as many as we can.
