LETSGOBROWNIES Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Just now, Tyty said: Gimme beer recommendations then plz. At least I'm not drinking bud light Light or dark? Do you like IPA's, stouts, just lagers? Saying "recommend beer" is like "recommend food", it depends on what you like and everyone has different tastes. Unless you like Coors Light, then you have no taste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most will have either flights (4-6 samples of beer, 4-5 oz per sample) or 4-5 oz samples for $2-3. Order a bunch of different stuff, try everything. If you find something you like, try another beer similar to it (same style). A quick Google search of places near South Bend and I found http://crookedewe.com, which looks to have a good selection of beers as well as some BBQ. When you go to a brewery, just ask the bartender what they recommend. Most breweries have a beer or two their best known for and will direct you there. Also, just let them know you don't know much about beer and most places are more than happy to put together a well rounded flight for you to try. Another option is go to Kroger and get a "mixer sixer" from the beer isle and fill it with things you've never tried and look interesting. Worst case scenario is you have a beer you don't like and you slam it back and move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone on here heard of Journeyman's? It's in my hometown of like 1300 people and it's right next to my house and I'm curious how big it is outside of my general area. Greenbush too, which is in the town over. And haymarket the town over from that. Just curious because the area is tiny and was dead a few years ago so it's super interesting stuff is becoming relevant to the universe now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbadbuff23835 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I love love love craft beer. The game in the North East is unreal. I live in Western New York if anyone wants some recommendations for the area. I know craft beer is really localized so it's hard to point someone in the right direction when I don't know the breweries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
