The Beer List

In anticipation of the big 30th birthday party, we are publishing the "30 Favorite Beers List." True to Chris's style we have an excel spreadsheet. Don't count because you may need some Reaganomics to get exactly 30.

Tips

If you want to branch out here are a few things to keep in mind while sampling.

1. You aren’t going to like everything, so don’t worry if a particular style isn’t your cup of tea. And there will be sufficient Bud Light if you want to work up enough liquid courage to try something new.
2. Head is good. Begin by pouring a little beer down the side of your glass like you would at a keg party and then pour directly in the middle to cause at least a finger’s worth of head. Nothing is wrong with a foam mustache.
3. Smell and look at the color before you drink.
4. Let the beer warm for a minute. You want your beer to be cold, but not ice cold. The only companies that advertise ice cold beer are those that want to numb your taste buds.
5. Double fist. It is a lot easier to identify what you like when you take a sip of one then a sip of another.
