bray- if its that dark lager that you like, that modello might be your best bet. at least for one that is readily avail. i prefer the dark beers also, and i find that shinerbock is a good standard.
i will bring a Duvel, a Chimay, and a Corsendonk for you to try this weekend. i will almost guarantee you will end up liking one of the three, if not all!!

I do like Chimay, its just not something I want to sit down and drink alot of. Also isnt it supposed to be served at room temp.?
As far as Shiner goes, I use to drink it all the time, but somewhere along the line I think they changed it. That or my tastes just changed.
I actually dont mind a Bud every now and then and would probably buy it more often, but it gives me BAD and I mean BAD GAS. One Bud could fuel my car for two days. So I only drink it if I'm desperate and I dont have to be around anyone for a couple of days.

For the bbq lovers, beer is a better thing than ever before.

Carcinogens: yet another reason to eat your meat on the rarer side.
Damn, between the cigs and well-don meat, it's surprising Bren is still alive.

How about Anchor Steam, bray? That and a steak would be enough to satisfy a whole pack of rodents.

I've had Anchor Steam also, and although not bad, to me it has a bitter finish that I dont care for much. XXX Amber in an ice cold mug has the perfect thickness, lots of flavor (kind of a nutty taste), and a smooth finish.
Looking for something along those lines.

Are you talking about the Mexican beer Dos Equis (XX)?

I do believe he was referring to taht beer, pmb. There was an unremarkable XXXX from Australia (Cattlemaine?) imported to the states some years ago, and we all know what XXX stands for, so...
Side note: just ordered that keg of Lindemans for the old lady's b-day. I got her toilet seats for Xmas (they were very fancy! ). Do you think she'll appreciate a keg of beer?

Sorry I did get a little over zealous with the Xs. XX amber, just had a few in a frosty mug. Mmmmmmm Mmmmmmm.
I guess XXX was just wishful thinking, but would be a good name for a beer.
XXX kinky beer.
