I had a Three Philosophers on New Years Eve, it was pretty damn good. Almost 10% alcohol though, its no joke. I'm sure there's a website where you can find places that have it. May have a place near by that will make it possible for the big game. I like Trader Joe's Plzner (correct spelling). Very dry, just the right amount of bitterness. Like a good Pilsner, I'll try it if I get to Tj Good brew, west coast, San Fran I think. Im looking for a Beer
Ommegang Three Philosephers
I heard its one of the best.
I've been to the brewery a few times, cool place actually turned part of the property onto concert grounds. They grow a small amount of hops on the property. Good brews at concerts they sell beer for 5 dollars which pant bad considering prices at other venues I have heard that place is great, it's upstate NY. I am on the island so that is doable one day.

For the past couple of years I've been drinking a lot of local beers. My favorite local beer is Good People Snake Handler. It's a double IPA with a 10 abv that is only canned a couple of times a year so it makes it hard to buy at the store or even specialty beer shops. I also tried and liked a beer out of Brooklyn by Sixpoint brewery called Resin. It's also a double IPA with a 9.1 abv that's really good but too expensive to buy on a regular basis. But when I'm watching a game with my father-in-law we typically drink Budweiser. Sound like some really good beers. Love the six point, they have a bar on Varrick st. In NYC, that has every six point brew on tap. My brothers drink Bud as their swill beer, I prefer Miller lite for that in the yard BBQin on a hot day for a swill.

It's summer. Those crisp wheat beers and Hefes go down good. I've really been in the Hefes in the past couple of weeks. Starting with Erdinger Weissbier, which was on sale at my store. Not to strong in taste but then again I'm not a fan of too much taste in the first place, especially in the hotter months. So, I'm not an IPA person, which makes me a minority these days. lol. Right now I'm drinking Widmer's American style Hefe, which also is a little light in the taste department but still a nice, smooth drink.
Also, what suggestions does anyone have for Italian imports? All that's available at my store is Peroni, which I thought tasted like most of the other popular euro lagers, like St. Paulie Girl, Stella, etc. Give me some recommendations so the next time I go to SF I can look for some, because I know I won't have much luck out here in Sacramento (Elvis Country) lol.

That stuff is popular as hell right now in Northern California, mainly because it's cross promoted with the SF Giants, even putting out orange and black bottles, packaging, etc. And yes, it is brewed in SF, alright. It's a bit too bitter for my tastes, but I like their California Lager.

Hops aren't for everyone, been drinking Corona's and a lager from a local brewery they aren't rich and heavy so very nice by the pool. I've had the pleasure of visiting Bavaria the beer from the area would be right up you alley. I'm pretty sure my buddies and I started with beer instead of coffee lol
