One beer I have NEVER had. Is it that good? By no means do I drink a lot. But I have been trying every single import available (locally). Just to see whats best. It takes me over a week to finish a 6 pack so its a slow going process. lol. So far Ive tried Mexico, Canda, And Asia has to offer. Believe it or not in my opinion, Canadian has been the best so far.

Because I just want to Taste what the world has to offer one beer at a time. I'm not looking for a favorite beer or a "go to". Just want to see what they ALL taste like. I know there are many great ones out there from microbrews. Those will be the next to try. One canadian I thought was pretty good was Mooshead Lager, Best Mexican beer I liked was Pacifico. I tried a "mexican style" beer out of Colorado from Del Norte Brewing, that was by far the worst beer I had ever had. Once again these are my opinions. I'm sure yours along with everyone elses here will differ. Thanks for some names on the Microbrews.

Those green bottle beers like Moosehead give me a headache. I do like Shiner Bock, Blue Moon, and some of the IPA's and microbrews from the Pac Northwest.

Pearl is made in Ft Worth at the big Miller plant... not the same....
same w/ Lone Star.... but the Ft Worth Lone Star is way better than the East Texas stufff.
the San Antonio beers were distinct and they had loyal followings...
bought a 12 of yellow Pearl a month ago... not the same.
Pearl Light had a dang good wet t-shirt promo, tho Very Happy

who remembers that poster?

I thought Pearl was bought out sometime in the 80's? It's just a label now.

Used to buy it all the time at the Maverick market on Ennis Joslin. (70's) Wink
