Stout is good. Amber ale is better. Pilsner sucks. My two cents.

I also like Founders Breakfast Stout.
Thanks for the reference to Kirkland's Vintage Ale. Will see if I can find it at the local Costco here.
Along the same line, if I feel like something more chocolaty, I may go for Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

I don’t know how to feel about Ax liking the same beers that I do… This may make me have to reconsider many things…

The stouts are just too much for me. Fatigues my palate. I'm a hophead or a nice crackery pilsner.

Cracked a bottle of the Kirkland 2023 Margaux last night. It got great reviews and is a nice Bordeaux, but to my palate it had no Margaux character at all.

I have stopped drinking beer as it making me too stout.

Has anybody tried Theakston's Old Peculier? It's worth a go if you ever see it on sale.

However, I've never really been a fan of dark beer. I like a good bitter.

Yep. Mo' bitta, mo' betta.

Sam Smith pale ale used to be my favorite.

Like Theakstons, a Yorkshire beer. It might be grim up north, but there are compensations.

I hope it’s not too late to tell you that I also like pianos; Yamaha pianos are among my favorites. Hopefully you still have time to reconsider your career.

Ax has been consistent in his love for good brew. And pianos. Eats pretty good stuff too.
