This stuff is the best beer in the world, hands down!
How to pour a Hefeweizen bier from a bottle. I prefer method #2 followed by rolling the bottle at the end!

Give me a break. There is NOTHING better than this beer! |
Erdinger is very good, no doubt. But you have not lived until you have had on-tap Paulaner at their restaurant in Munchen. Preferably the dunkel.
Truth is, Germany is beer heaven. And Bavaria is the highest form of that. Best beer in the world.

Oh, I have been there, done that.... and also some other great German brews... Julius Echter, Schofferhofer, and Maisel's Weisse hefewizen bier! All,
very god stuff. I could name many more. Love this stuff!

Thanks for the bump - always plenty of discussion and viewpoints. I think I'm stickin with Pacifico, but will keep an eye out for Dortmunder Union
and some of the others to try. And thanks to the video I will now be able to impress my friends when I pour them a beer (I'll do the inverted glass
technique).

I will readily agree with the generalization made about German and Bavarian beer. But to single out a single beer or a single style (e.g.
Hefeweizen) is purely individual taste. That one is way more than halfway down my list.
And any beer with a fruit in it is a ... uh,... I dunno, a fruity beer. <g>
In the Inns of small German towns, you can drink whatever local lager is flowing from their taps and just seem to all be great.
In Baja I tend to go for Negro Modelo, or on a hot afternoon, a Pacifico (or 3).

Why ANYone would think to stuff a fruit into a beer before the courtesy of asking is absolutely beyond me. 'Course in the case of Corona, I don't
care 'cause they're not opening it for me.
I resent if they open the bottle with lime juice on their hands. I'll send that one back every time.

SO MANY GOOD BEERS TO CHOOSE FROM....
But...PACIFICO is definitely one of my favorites, especially when it comes to Mexican beers. One of my other favorites from Mexico is the DOS EQUIS
AMBER LAGER. However, to really enjoy it's taste, it should be served in a chilled beer glass.
As for other beers....I live in San Diego County which is a MECCA for small craft Breweries! There's Stone, Port Brewing, Firehouse, Green Flash and
many more, most of who have won many medals in national brewing contests. There's so many good ones to try that it's almodt impossible to try them
all.
Nationally....there's also so many good beers being brewed by smaller breweries! When I go to Bev Mo or the Grocery store I like to try new things.
One very good one I tried recently was 'SUNSET WHEAT' from a brewery in Wisconsin called 'Leinenkugl.' It reminded me of a Hefeweizen with a squeeze
of lemon.

Thanks Blanca.

Good point! Hefeweizen beer is one kind of taste that I like, but I cannot have too many of them in one sitting. It's pretty filling stuff and is
not necessairly tied to Bavaria, but available all over Germany. And, very popular.
In the Bonn, Germany region, I prefer a lighter beer ... a Kolsch beer (two dots over the o in kolsch) This particular beer is poured into a small,
thin, ice cold glass and sipped. Very good stuff, indeed!

Barbarosa, you are referring to Berliner Weisse. That is, indeed served with fruit syrup. Bavarian Hefeweizen has no fruit and is a totally different
drink. Some things are too important not to get right!
As far as Mexican beer goes:
1. Bohemia Obscura
2. Bohemia Clara
3. Dos Equis
4. Pacifico

Pacifico always gives me the runs, I like local beers Anacapa Pierpont IPA is good. Mexico needs micro brews to offer some more options.

It is true there is no beer garden. However, if you take the free tour of the facility they do provide you with 2-3 beers at the end in their
bar/museum. The bar sits at the very top (12 stories up) of the facility and has fantastic views of the harbor on one side, and the ocean on the
other.

Nothing is smoother than an ice cold Pacifico with a lime wedge on a hot day. By the way doesn't corona have pee in it?

Just to clarify (I agree; let's get it right!), I didn't mean a beer with fruit in it (tho I betcha there such). I meant beer that folks *PUT* beer
in. (Condemns the beer all the same.)
http://www.fermentarium.com/homebrewing/brewing-beer/how-to-...
From that link:
"Lately it seems Hefeweizen is the new beer playground for fruit."
