GLBC Lake Erie Monster
Ohio's Best Beer
- Thread starter Purplemojo
- Start date
What kind of limp diiicked incel would buy that?
(Just messing with you) that sounds disgusting and now sure why anyone would try that.
Nacho bait is my favorite beer of all time, habanero and it is spicy. Not for everyone but i like to make it with michelada mix or bkoody Mary mix abd some vodka.
To be honest I only drink three beers of theirs or so. Their pilsner called survive is pretty good too. Their brew house is five minutes from my house so I get drunk there and their food is pretty good. I get the roast beef sandwich with horseradish on it
To be fair i am not a beer enthusiast, just like to get drunk. I enjoy tasting bourbons better. Have tried to get into wine but it just makes me feel like i am in church

Drinking some Founders Solid Gold Lager. Pretty good.

My favorite of the Great Lakes offerings is the Eliot Ness. It's a Vienna Style Lager.
Unfortunately, this one isn't sold in stores, but a microbrewery in my town called Paradigm Shift makes a terrific Peanut Butter Goat Roper. It's the best beer I've ever drank, but it's only brewed in small batches and not one that they keep on tap regularly.

Great Lakes has been brewing that one for a long time. I'm not a big fan of pale ales. After the 4 beers GLBC sells in its variety pack: Commodore Perry (IPA), Edmund Fitzgerald (porter), Dortmunder Gold (lager), and Eliot Ness (Vienna lager), Burning River is GLBC's other staple.
Additionally, there is an ultramarathon every summer that traverses the Cuyahoga Valley known as the Burning River 100.
BTW, that Maumee Bay Breakfast Stout you mentioned is pretty tasty. Thank God for the carry-out stores where you can make your own 6-pack.

Maumee Bay has a long catch-up to GLB but I see they did buy an nearby warehouse and have the over grown chemistry sets up in there.
Having, I don't recall how, discovered the West Side Market, I'm guessing late 90s, I went for a walk around the neighborhood and kept getting a whiff what I thought was cinnamon or cardamon. Looking for a bakery and playing with the wind, I must have walked by that steel door in a "warehouse" 5 times before I realized what it was. Came back next year with a bud, GLB one of the best brewery tours I've been on. Loved the ending. In Ohio you're not allowed to give away beer so you had to leave a quarter on the table. So the story they told us went. Been a fan since.

Along with Bells, Founders is a great brewery, even if it is in Michigan.

Founders Breakfast Stout ... nectar of the Gods!

Until the Drew Carey Show storyline dictated that he and his friends begin their own brewing venture, you can see them consuming GLBC labeled products at Drew's house. The Dortmunder Gold appeared to be their "go to."

Agreed.
even better than their Breakfast Stout is their Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS)......Founders beers are usually all pretty good. However, they have been bought out by a larger company so we'll see if that screws with their quality.

I also picked up their All Day IPA but have not tried it yet. I can stand Session IPA's, they are usually more smooth and not as bitter.

I’m not a big fan of session ipas, but I can understand why people like them. They give you some hop at a lower abv. I actually like bitter hops and would rather just drink less.
