What's the best combination for 6 different beer styles to enjoy on a Saturday afternoon?

[u/bobjohndaviddick]

Going to treat myself with a mix a 6 pack tomorrow. What 6 beer styles should I get, assuming each is a different style?

[u/musickismagick]

Stout, BA stout, barleywine, BA barleywine, quad IPA, sextuple Belgian

[u/Johnbonham1980 → u/musickismagick]

It’d be nap time by the third one in 😂

[u/CharlesDickensABox → u/musickismagick]

In a plastic hose with a funnel. Together. All at once.

[u/starktargaryen75 → u/musickismagick]

Do not heed this insane advice

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/musickismagick]

That sounds like a lot of alcohol. I'm going to be high as well so this sounds dangerous

[u/korc]

How drunk you want to get

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/korc]

Not especially drunk but a nice comfortable 6/10 maybe 7? I'm going to be high as well

[u/Konradprojects]

Helles / Maibock / Vienna lager / Dunkel / Pilsner / Schwarzbier

In that order

[u/Driftwood71 → u/Konradprojects]

Right there with you, but I'd swap the Pilsner for a Doppelbock and end it with a rauchbier.

[u/Konradprojects → u/Driftwood71]

You’re ending heavy whereas I’m going light. Respect.

[u/Driftwood71 → u/Konradprojects]

Love a rauchbier. But kind of toasts my palate, so always have it last.

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/Driftwood71]

I do prefer doppels to pilsners i must say. Good call mate

[u/starktargaryen75 → u/Konradprojects]

Only correct answer

[u/Chinacat-Badger → u/Konradprojects]

Love this grouping!

[u/Kilgore_Brown_Trout_ → u/Konradprojects]

Oh hell yes.  And serve me sausages and pretzels.

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/Konradprojects]

I really like that lineup. Really like the European flavor

[u/Driftwood71 → u/bobjohndaviddick]

It's not far off from last weekend when I met a buddy at a German bar because they had Salvator on tap.

I think my order was maibock, Salvator Doppelbock, Schlenkerla smoked schwarzbier, eisbock, Czech Pilsner, imperial stout, and a weisenbock.

[u/paltrysquanto27]

Naipa, session ipa, hazy ipa, double ipa, triple ipa, ipa.

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/paltrysquanto27]

That sounds like a lot of ipas which are in my humble opinion overrated

[u/paltrysquanto27 → u/bobjohndaviddick]

Sorry you drink bad ipa then. Wish I could make you a 6 pack from my frig. Go grab 6 different beers from a local brewery you haven’t had for a while to get a good a better idea of their beer.

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/paltrysquanto27]

Wish I could too brother. Next time you're down in the sunshine you can mix me a 6er

[u/spursjb395]

DIPA, DIPA, TIPA, QIPA, DIPA, DIPA.

That order

[u/drewts86 → u/spursjb395]

If you’re tryna make it a fight-for-your-life you might as well include Sam Adam’s Utopia. At 28% it’d fit right in.

[u/starktargaryen75 → u/spursjb395]

They do make 5X IPA’s now

[u/jet_heller → u/starktargaryen75]

I believe that Southern Tier does. They call it an whiskey.

[u/spursjb395 → u/starktargaryen75]

Need to find me one of them

[u/mrRabblerouser]

It really depends on your preferences.

If I were to choose randomly based on style it’d be: Mexican lager, cider/sour, amber/dark/brown ale, flavored beer of any style, porter/stout, IPA

A lot of variation with all of that, but it really depends on what the options are.

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/mrRabblerouser]

That sounds like a really inviting lineup. I'm not sure I'm too keen on Mexican lagers but I've never tried one

[u/mrRabblerouser → u/bobjohndaviddick]

Mexican lagers are the gold standard in the Pilsner style beer category imo. If you like lagers, pilsners, helles style beers, then you should absolutely try some. Dos Equis, Pacifico, and Modelo are all great. Poured into a glass with a squeeze of lime, it’s incredibly refreshing.

[u/iSheepTouch]

German pils, kolsch, West Coast pils, West Coast IPA, NE IPA, coffee stout. In that order.

[u/drewts86]

PBR / Banquet / High Life / Pacifico / Modelo / local IPA

[u/tonebonepdx]

Pilsner, Lager, Gose, Pale Ale, WC IPA, WC IPA.

[u/cherinuka]

I'm a big fan of sours. Rodenbach is a good traditional Belgian sour, all the others I've tried are local

[u/Oldpenguinhunter]

CZ pils, CZ pils, CZ pils, WC IPA, black lager, CZ pils

Moonlight & Russian River/Ghost Town or some Heater Allen and whatever PNW IPA you're into

[u/Driftwood71]

Go to your local brewpub and get a flight. If you have no idea what to pick-- let them pick for you.

[u/jet_heller → u/Driftwood71]

These are my favorite flights!

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/Driftwood71]

Good idea but I will be high as well so I'm staying at home today

[u/Alarming_Ad1746]

How dark do you want to get?

I’m talking emotionally.

[u/bobjohndaviddick → u/Alarming_Ad1746]

Very!

[u/onlyexcellentchoices]

Czech pilsner, German pilsner, American pilsner, Italian pilsner, Polish pilsner, Mexican pilsner

[u/Sevuhrow]

2 darks, 2 fruity, 2 lights

[u/rodwha]

Black IPA, rye IPA, west coast IPA, juicy IPA, NEIPA, rounded out with a hoppy pale ale. 🍻
