I personally prefer a strong hoppy ale after running. Light beer just tastes like beer flavored water, I like a lot of taste. This, of course, is why the Dogfish Dash 10k is my favorite race of the year, free Dogfish after the rce!

I agree 100%. The Belgium edge is starting to fade as more brewers in the US are starting to get a handle on wild ales. A good Belgium sour ale is very hard to beat but I've tasted some really good American wild ales. Really wish more brewers in the US would produce a good quality wild ale.Abide said:

Bells is awesome. I used to be able to get my hands on the Oberon and the Rye Stout when I lived in DC but no such luck here in Texas.Longboard said:

Definitelly, Rogue's Dead Guy Ale is my favorite too.
Next on my list is Pilsner Urquell.

The problem with these
The problem with these discussions is it's hard to find all the recomendations. Bubba those are the exact ones I was speaking of.
Also a question for the New Yorkers, specifically Rochestertons... there seems to be a brewery there that churns out crap and packages it as a microbrew. Here it is labelled Dundee and Tap room, I've seen it in CA under a flying brothers name or something like that. Is there a major brewery making this crap? They are all so bad I refuse to buy beer that is brewed in New York anymore, and if I don't recognize the beer I always check the label to make sure it's not from Rochester.

O.K. so just how good is Bells?
#1 They are no longer considered a microbrew, far too many barrels sold.
#2 Larry Bell PERSONALLY kicked out my wife and I from his Kalamazoo Biergarten for being barefoot while
listening to several local bands and sampling all he had on tap that day AND I NOT ONLY STILL DRINK THE
STUFF but I PROMOTE it here as well! And I've been a member of the SBL for almost ten years!
In all fairness, at first he and his wife said nothing about us, but when his manager started up with me he
boldly proclaimed "That's Larry Bell's wife right there, she'll tell you it's the law". Thinking I would be
successful I approached her with the health department letter which as sometimes does turned out to pi$$ her
off, and then Larry had to defend his wife's honor. Having already proccessed a few pints or so I figured better
to leave than wait for them to call local law enforcement on us. One day I'll try to get him to revisit the issue, but
with no kids at WMU anymore I never really get to KZOO these days and he lets me drink his products barefoot
at other people's bars and at home so LARRY if you've become a BFRunner and are reading this your beer is great
but your shoe policy $ucks!

If you burn 400 KCAL/Hr while
If you burn 400 KCAL/Hr while running, figure four "lites" , three regulars, or two "real" beers per hour.
If you run at a blazing 600 KCAL/Hr, you'll never make up the deficit with beer. Better hit the hot fudge/ice cream instead.

My thoughts on imports: they are good, but they not shipped and stored correctly. Who knows how long they are sitting on a cargo container and then when they arrive, they are stored on store shelves. At the closest liquor store, they are even on a shelf in the sunlight. This is probably why a fresh micro brew, even bottled, will often taste better.
