    Tried Sun Dog a couple days ago. I liked it a lot.

    So far in my limited beer drinking experience, it seems that ambers and wheats tend to be my favorites.

    good place to start. If you want something rich from there, go with Aventinus. You can find it at a lot of Harris Teeter type places so you don't have to go too far out of your way.

    InBev wants to buy Anheuser-Busch.
    Anheuser-Busch makes Budweiser and Bud Light. The company has an estimated 50.9 percent domestic market share.

    Ken Crawford, an analyst with Argent Capital of suburban St. Louis, said the deal would make sense for Anheuser-Busch.

    “We see a company that’s very, very profitable, generates a lot of cash,” Crawford said of Anheuser-Busch. “The question is: Where and how do they grow? It would not be unrealistic that they look abroad either for acquisitions or to partner with someone.”

    It would be just the latest deal in a consolidating beer industry. Miller Brewing Co., the nation’s second-largest beer-maker, and No. 3 Molson Coors Brewing Co. are planning to combine U.S. operations in a deal expected to be completed by midsummer. Miller will distribute Grolsch in the U.S. after a February takeover by SABMiller of Europe.

    Crawford said the impact on consumers remains to be seen.

    Cool, I'll have to give it a try. I haven't ventured into the darker, heavier beers yet. Sounds like this may be a step closer to that direction.

    So far out of everything I've tried (probably 30-40 different beers), I really only recall two that absolutely made me not want another one....Corona Light and Terrapin Rye Pale Ale.

    OK - so a few new things.
    Getting into Belgian Brown and smoe things off of that - Liefman's Goudenband is an oud bruin, fantastic. They have a cherry off of that at 7.1%, that's phenomenal. Also, Kasteel Bruin and Rouge are off that same ideal but less traditional - the Rouge is a brown base cherry that's aged for 12 months with sour cherry and Mon Cheri brandy. Might be my favorite fruit based Belgian of any style.

    Green Flash Brewing is distributing out this way now, they have an India Red Ale, standard Pale, IPA, and a stout out now, with a number of other brands distributed closer to their San Diego county location. Hopefully, they'll start pushing Stone out this way soon, since I always bring back all the Stone I can when I'm on the west coast.
