45-55 degrees is where I prefer my beer. The colder a beer is, the less flavor it has. But then again, try drinking one of the beer-flavored water's out there (any bud product, miller, coors, etc...) at a warm temperature and I think anyone would throw up. I like my pale ales a little colder but for barleywines, stouts, porters, and heavy ales, they've got to be fairly warm. When I went to London a few months ago, I was in heaven with all of the room-temp hand-pulled (cask) ales and stouts. Cask beer is my favorite and is always the first beer I order when I go to my local microbrewery (Goose Island ).

I tried a six-pack of Pyramid Scottish Style ale and I couldn't finish it. It tasted really skunky.

landry_p2000,
Go to the Flying Saucer Draught Emporium off of Beale Street and start trying different styles. I recommend Belhaven for one. Let me know what you think of the different beers available there if you go.

We have a micro brewery in our area called Victory. They make a beer called Golden Monkey. I don't even know what type of beer you would call it. It has a light golden color to it with a heavy taste. It is 9% alc.
I have never tasted anything like it but it's out of this world!!
Just be careful, they pack a punch.Michael

The Golden Monkey is a Belgian-style ale. I've tried their HopDevil Ale which is like an IPA. Good stuff for an East Coast microbrewery.2 channel - Willsenton R8 tube integrated, Holo Audio Spring 3 KTE DAC, audio optimized NUC7i5, Windows 10 Pro/JRiver MC29/Fidelizer Plus 8.7 w/LPS and external SSD drive, PS Audio PerfectWave P3 regenerator, KEF R3 speakers, Rythmik F12SE subwoofer, Audioquest Diamond USB cable, Gabriel Gold IC's, Morrow Audio SP5 speaker cables.

Oh yes oh yes, Victory brewing. My brother-in-law usually has a keg of Victory on tap at his house when I visit. Excellent stuff. Do they still brew "HopDevil"? That was the hoppiest beer I have ever ingested.
And greg, my everyday beer is Yeungling lager...and I like the "Lord Chesterfield Ale" too, although to me it doesn't taste like an ale...tastes like a German Lager (ala Becks or Spaten).
Ron, I really like Pyramid's Heffe but locally can only find it on tap. I haven't run across a skunky batch of the bottled Pyramid I've bought, at least not yet. I did run across a wicked skunky sixer of Beck's last weekend. Man...that produced some serious results the morning after.system 1:

I had some of that Yeungling on a trip to Philly. That style is a little light for my tastes but not bad tasting beer at all.
Becks is not that great of a German beer, IMO. Just happens to be heavily exported. Actually most towns over there have their own local breweries and brands.2 channel - Willsenton R8 tube integrated, Holo Audio Spring 3 KTE DAC, audio optimized NUC7i5, Windows 10 Pro/JRiver MC29/Fidelizer Plus 8.7 w/LPS and external SSD drive, PS Audio PerfectWave P3 regenerator, KEF R3 speakers, Rythmik F12SE subwoofer, Audioquest Diamond USB cable, Gabriel Gold IC's, Morrow Audio SP5 speaker cables.

That's it! I'm off to the local distributor. Oh, my backup to Yeungling Porter....Genesee Red Lager. $14.80 for a 30 pack. The drunkard's (like me) cup of tee.suds, suds and more suds!
