ale or lager

[funkalicious101]

On a hot day I would say lager.

On a cold day I would say ale, so long as it isnt pale.

Generally a pilsner or a lager, but an ale from time to time.

Had a nice double deuce Kingfisher Lager last night. Mightly tasty with the butter chicken.

[Lager that qualifies under the German Beer Purity Law of 1516]
...Which reads (in part):
" ... no more than 2% horse piss, 1% puss from corpses infected with
bubonic plague and 3% ashes from burned witches"

Ha! Good one!

And note that the German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot) does not allow
for yeast which is a requirement in every beer.

Pales are great on a hot day as are hefeweizens, which technically aren't ales, but are top fermented like ales.

Nothing soothes my throat like an ice cold Pale Ale.

I see no stout option

Stouts and porters are a type of ale.

Ale FTW. Bass is a good go-to beer for me, although I generally like stuff a bit on the darker side. Anybody tried Pete's Wicked Ale?

It's been a long while, but yeah. I should probably put that on the grocery list as I can't even remember if I liked it.

Both, but Lagers tend to be more my style.

I think this says it all

Love this ad! I'm very much an ale man, but on a scorching hot day I will happily down an ice cold lager. I prefer to savour an ale.

My ales of choice are Fuller's ESB, Old Tom (8.5%!), London Pride, and the old faithful, Newcastle Brown.

It's called "IPA", not "IPL". Ergo...

Ale

 

[Dr Stankface]

I'll take both.

Ales, generally, because making lager takes more time. For cooler days, I go for a dark stout - often an Imperial Stout. Sunny days is time for the blonde belgian-style ale or spiced rye ales.

+1 on that. Im kind of psyched to get out of my IPA and hefe phase and settle in for a long winter of stouts. I suggest anybody within driving range come out this march for Kate the Great Imperial Stout from Portsmouth Brewery. This past one was amazing. They ran out of it in two days.

Blondes or brunettes?

Both.
