Nah, good American microbrews are better than German beer.


I never tried them...

then how do you know you don't like them?

Re-read what I wrote:

``The only beer I like is German beer in German pubs.''

I did not say that I tried all beers in the world, or that I dislike
microbrew beers. I said that the only beer I like is a certain kind of
German beer. I do not know if I would like microbrews. What I wrote
does not imply that I dislike microbrews.

you can't know that something is the only thing you like if you haven't
compared it to the other things that are out there.

That's a pretty broad generalization you're making there. One that would
need to be extensively debated and field-tested.

Sigh...

Thanks, but please don't be. Making beer at home can be quite a simple, yet
very enjoyable, experience. You can buy malt extract in a can so you don't
have to worry about grinding up all the individual grains and doing it all
from scratch. This method tastes nearly as good as "all grain" brewing and
still far superior to anything you'll be able to buy in the store.

Thanks for a great post and educating me. Unfortunately, as you noted,
beer can be a big weight gainer, and I cannot nutritionally afford to
consume 5 gallons of it in any timeframe.

Maybe, in another life, I will not have weight problems, and then I
will try to brew beer.

Truly. Perhaps if we can acquire enough merit in this lifetime, we will
be reborn so genetically blessed.

Ah, fond memories! Ein Pils, bitte.

It's not the beer, pal. It's your insistence on swigging down a half dozen
bombers on a Friday night.
Don't blame the beer.

I certainly have better control now, on low carb, than I did when I as
on low fat. And I still do drink beer every once in a while. It's
just that it is food (as you aptly point out) and typically has quite a
few calories, and I can easily drink two if not more beers. So, I'll
probably wait until I get to my goal weight before I try beer brewing,
and then I'll see if I can brew into bottles (no kegs for me!). That
way, I can keep some in the cellar and only put the ones I want in the
fridge. Lucky for me, I don't like warm beer.

I thought beer was a huge "no-no" if you were trying to be
low-carbohydrate? My sister and her husband won't go near it just now,
much though they love it.
