New Belgium Abbey is great stuff. Not something you can down a 6-pack of in a night though.

 

Agreed. It is not a sessionable beer. 1 or 3 will do ya. Another good local brew to try is Coopersmiths Sigma Green Chili beer. It is strange that a beer can havechili flavor, actually kind of spicy, but still be a good beer. I love that stuff, especially in the summer.

I enjoy drinking a beer or two when watching sports or playing video games. Here's some of my favorites that I haven't seen mentioned:

 

Weisenstephaner Hefe-Weissbier

Probably my favorite beer.

 

Seadog "Bluepaw" Blueberry Wheat Ale

A nice lighter wheat ale with a touch of blueberry. Everyone I've had try this loved it.

 

 

Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest

A Nice full bodied Marzen. Generally my beer of choice for evenings.

 

Delirium Tremens

Don't really know how to classify it, other than it's frickin awesome. Just don't drink more than 2...

Where do you find those? Can't say I've heard of any of them but looks like they're worth a try

I'm in Tampa so...... i dunno for you.

 

There's a few places around here that has these on tap (Brass Tap and World of Beer). The Weisenstephaner and Hack-Pschorr are both kraut beer imports, and are normally hard to find. I've also been stocking them at home in 6 packs when I find them. Normally, I have to go to place in downtown Tampa called Total Wine (it's like double the size of any liquor store I've ever seen).

They sell sea dog at hyvee, cant really say it's a beer I would drink more than one of at a time. Too sugary for me.

[Omaha-Husker]

Beertopia in Omaha has the best selection of anyplace I have even been. If you can't find it there it probably isn't anywhere in the city.

Have you tried empyreans summer brew that just came out? I'm not too sure of the name but I saw it the other day.

Yeah, I prefer it on really hot days, because it's lighter. Of course, since it's 90+ degrees 6 months of the year down here, that's quite often! It's a great post lawn mowing beer.

Beertopia has all of those.

The beer list there hasn't been updated in awhile so don't trust it.

 

Edit: Also, check out Krug Park in Benson if you are a beer aficionado. Beware the hipsters. http://www.krugpark.com/

If you like sours (and you'll probably love them or hate them . . . with nothing in between) you should try Monk's Cafe Flemish Sour.
