Recommend Me a Beer
 
I've been switching up my main diet of beer.

I've grown sick of that Framboise [censored] after spending thousands on that fruity irresistible stuff. I've also grown sick of Young's Chocolate Stout and any regular domestic beer.

I recently tried Mythos which is a Greek beer and I thought it was pretty good.

The problem is that I'm not well-versed in the art of beer (though I should be based on quantity consumed [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]).

Although I do enjoy dark, rich stuff like Guiness Stout and Boddington's, I think I am most partial to the lighter beers.

I'm looking for mainly SMOOTHNESS, clean-taste, and drinkability. Not into the super-skunky stuff right now.

So, I'll be heading off to Bevmo in a couple hours and I was wondering if anyone could recommend something right up my alley.

If you have a beer that doesn't fit my description, but its sooooo good that you think I should try it anyway, don't hesitate to share.

Thanks All

PS Yes OP is a functioning alcoholic.

I drink only for effect. To achieve that I drink Mic Ultra. Tastes like water and has the alcohol content you would expect from a domestic. Both are a bonus.

I enjoy Stella Artois quite a bit. Not heavy, not too light, packs a bit of a punch (as opposed to me having to drink a case of Miller Lite to get a buzz) and I really like the taste. An increasing number of bars here in town are putting it on tap, which is a welcome development.

Delirium Nocturnum

Ridiculously smooth, very flavorful without being overtly so (meaning it still tastes like beer), and 9 percent alcohol content!

Also, Stella Artios as mentioned by tuq is great also. Perfect for a hot summer night.

I don't know if you would like New Castle,but I think its pretty good. If you can get Orion on tap, it's really good

I think you should give Staropramen a try. Make sure you don't get the darker one, the lighter one will suit you better I believe. It's my absolute favorite beer, and I think it fits your critera perfect. Give it a try.

Stella Artois

I've tried Stella Artois a while back (I think I bought a sixer) and I'm pretty sure I liked it, but I wasn't compelled to pick it up again. Maybe I should give it another shot. I've also had my fair share of nukies.

The other stuff I haven't tried, but I will definitely check it out. Thanks.

Stella is pop. Try this one, kind of Grolschisch. Singapore import, very nice, lager with a bit of bite.
