On those rare occasions that I play hold'em, I generally drink Knob Creek Bourbon. Sometimes I smoke a cigar. I tend to prefer a maduro, generally from among Padron, Ashton, Avo, Hoyo de Monterrey, Macanudo, or CAO.
Going to be bottling a brown ale tonight and transfering the JudgeMental (vanilla milk porter) to secondary and adding the vanilla to let it sit another few weeks. I'll siphon off a sample and let you guys know how it tastes.

Y'know, I think bigjohn was asking for advice in expanding his beer horizons, but was shamefully ignored.
How about Boddingtons, Newcastle, and Old Speckled Hen? |

bigwill- actually, i am going to the grocery store this afternoon, and will have a short list of beers that i am thinking about trying. i will put the list on here, and see what ya'll think. maybe do a poll if i can figure out how to do one?
i think i will get some italian beer that i saw last time i went shopping. they make great food and great wine, chances are the beer should be pretty good too!!? ![]() BTW- i will check and see if they have any of the ones you have listed. bigjohn

John, you've gotta compile a short list of beers that you drink regularly and enjoy, that way we'll have a starting point to make suggestions.

a short list.... OK.. well, i have to admit, i am kind-of-a simple guy, so i usually drink the regular american favorites.. but, i will add in all the ones i have liked.
regulars- bud light, lone star, shinerbock, shiner blonde, original coors(yella-belly), and as of late, MGD. mexicans- dos equis, sampatico, tecate.. others- molson, arctic bay, ice house, killians, becks. a few beers that i have had that i REALLY didnt care for are samuel adams, guiness, and an extra pale ale from northern california. OK, there ya go. suggest away!!! ![]() bigjohn

BigJohn,
You'd hate my beer of choice Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Being a Cubs/Bears fan I'm obligated to recommend Old Style it's pretty much like Red Star but if my memory is correct Old Style gives more umm gasious emmissions with a shorter delay time ![]() We might not win but we'll sure stink up the house!

Lets see, not sure what you can get over there, but I would try maybe:
Stoudt's Gold Lager Brooklyn Brown Ale (And if you want something 9%, but expect a lot of flavors with this one) Chimay Grande Reserve (Blue label)
