When I read the thread title, something in my head read "beer goggles" instead of "beer glasses"... LOL!

I'm partial to German beers myself... personally, I can't stand most Brit beer... tastes like piss filtered through shredded newsprint to me...  (just speculating there of course!)

Give me a good Spaten any day...  Or most of the stuff that Sierra Nevada makes... their Big Foot barelywine ale is so thick you can stand a fork up in it!

One of my favorite styles of beer, India Pale Ale, was a British creation

Ahem.  Bud is NOT a German beer... not even close!  According to the Rheinheitsgebot, the German beer purity law, Bud isn't beer because it doesn't have all four and only the four ingredients allowed in beer.

That reminds me of a funny story my wife told me a long time ago, not long after we met.  When she was in high school, she was out partying on the beach with some friends one night (she grew up in Los Angeles) when a couple of German tourists walk up to her, and offered her and her friends a case of Bud.  Of course, high schoolers not being ones to turn down free alcohol, they accepted it gladly.  When she asked them why they were giving it to them, the German tourists said "It says it's beer on the label, but it's not beer!"  LOL   

Oh, and yes, IPA's are some of my favorites, but it took quality brewers, like some of the micro and regional breweries we have here in California to really get it right!!!    Sierra Nevada Pale Ale has always been one of my favorites, and New Belgium's, Ranger IPA is another great one... but even though IPA was invented by Brits (I'll give them that anyway), it took a German style brewing method to make it palatable!!!

Newcastle is pretty big here in the States. One of my favorite 'session' beers.

Now that the fall is almost here it's almost pumpkin beer time. Can't wait to be able to go get a four pack of Dogfish Head Punkin Ale.

Well I waited to use my new glasses until I could break them in the right way.

It was so good I had to drink two.

Thought I should explain that up north (I was in Durham for some time a few years ago) you would ask for 'a bottle-o-dog' 

Newcastle Brown Ale was nicknamed "Dog" by people living in and around the areas of the North East of England. This stems from the locals saying, "Going to walk the dog." This was the excuse used to grab a pint at the local pub. The beer is often called 'Newkie Brown', or simply 'Brown' or ' Broon'

Also, if you were drinking in a pub that sold rough beer you would order a Newkie brown as it was the same where ever you were drinking 
Although I do prefer a proper pint of bitter  Newkie brown is the multitool of pints

Yay beer!!!!! And no I'm not a beer snob. I've probably drank enough beer to float a medium sized Naval vessel and during my years and years of beer drinking I've only had ONE beer I didn't like.

There were some I liked better than others but for the most part I just like beer. All the way from the cheapest domestic crap to the finest beers in the world...it's all good.

And what was that ONE beer you did not like?

[ducktapehero]

IIRC it was called Goat's Breath.

[ducktapehero]

I guess other people like it. Maybe I just got a bad batch.

[Whoey]

they have codes in the 12pack/larger packs/kegs of Heineken over here, (12 = 200points) I had accumulated 2600, so I just redeemed a bunch of points for some beer glasses... had to pay shipping, but what the heck! Will post pictures when they arrive!

As a side note, I have a Guinness Pint glass that I rescued from a roundabout in London... I guess someone wandered out of a pub with it and decided to leave it there... at least I gave it a good home rather than a chav death!
