If by "craft" beer they mean available at your local CVS, then yes.

It's just a New Belgium beer though... nothing all that special.

doesn't make it any less tasty.

you don't have to produce only 10 gallons of beer a year for it to be good.

have you ever had mothership wit?

are you a fan of German style wheat beers, not that American style wheat crap (ie blue moon).

Has nothing to do with how much or little they make of it. I'm just not really a fan of wheat style beers period, and every New Belgium beer I've had it a bit lacking IMO.

forced4 · 10-20-2009, 06:58 PM

You've never had the black ale then.

Big_Hitter · 10-20-2009, 07:05 PM

the beer fest last sat at petrol was good, I just stopped by (just to chat) and they still have some of the black gold on tap

glilly · 10-21-2009, 12:57 PM

soooooo, we got any takers on drinking with me on Friday?

It's all a matter of taste, but I find NBB to be pretty tasty for the price.

Sure I can find beer that is better than fat tire, but at what price?

IMO Mothership Wit is a damn good weissbeir, only surpassed by franziskaner, imo.

but the price is like $1 more per bottle for the real german beer.

anyway, some people like the stouts, some people like the weissbeir, some people like the IPA, whatever you find to be tasty, go with it.

OneArmedScissor · 10-21-2009, 02:23 PM

no samagon. clearly, as with all opinions, someone's opinion on taste has to be wrong.

I like Westmalle and everything from Unibroue, personally. I have literally never had a bad beer from Unibroue.

I once somehow got a bad case of fat tire that got it nicknamed flat tire by someone who had only experienced budweiser products. It tasted like burned chicken.

bump. 5.5 hours.
