Grandpa's Beer



As I said, my wife's father doesn't generally say too much. We talk about the surf, maybe a little more about the weather in general. He says things like "Oh boy, you ought to see it, that stuff really gets going."
The last few years we have started talking about beer and our mutual affinity for yellow pilsner beers from Europe. It seems like each time I head home, we pick out a couple different flavors and have a short discussion of which we like the best. It kind of goes "I like this one." "Really? I kind of like this one better." "Huh, that one? I don't know."

I'm always at a loss for beer picks. Could you do the public service of listing your top 5 favorite beers?

Awesome. Thanks, dude!

Honestly, beer is delicious.
My favorite is Pilsner Urquell.
Any other beers just need to be thin and yellow and should not taste like Heineken or an American Amber Ale.

I don't drink beer much anymore. I don't want the guy. I do the vino though.

I drank a 40 about a year ago and my head still hurts.
