eheh i don't post much but i couldn't resist, in Belgium we probably brew the best beers in the world ...(yeah right :) at least we got some choice :

Belgian Beers index

but of course they are a few that we drink everyday: Jupiler mainly in my part onf the country (everyday beer) or stella

and fruity beers (Kriek and many others)

In belgium you probably won't have enough of a lifetime to drink them all .

That's a good travel reason isn't it?

I took this thread to mean local breweries, so...

I'm not much of a beer fan, but we've got a brewery about 30 minutes away (down in Escondido) called Stone Brewing Co, and their IPA is a favorite for my friend. It's also a little stronger on the alcohol than most beers.

Newcastle UK.

There are so many how can I choose. Any from the Mordue Brewery or Big Lamp

Plus our most famous one (that very few people here drink) Newcastle Brown Ale. (also it's not brewed here any more)

As a side note Brown Ale used to be so strong and had a certain composition that if you were an alcoholic drinking Brown Ale you went mad. The mental hospital near where I used to live had a special wing for Brown Ale ex and current alkies. Even if you gave up drinking you stayed mad.

I love Newcastle Brown Ale.

You may like a beer called woodchuck its an apple cider beer tastes just like apple cider and its made in Vermont.

It's technically not beer. It's draft cider. It's basically just fermented longer than regular cider. It's about 5.2% alcohol if i remember correctly. I comes in a few flavors also. Amber, Granny Smith, and Dark & Dry.

Alittle off topic but ehh.

I am the only one that cannot stand the taste of beer? To me all beer has a really bad taste. For other goodies that I can mix is fine with me. I've tried a good amount of beer and cant deal with it for more then a few sips. I keep getting told to try Sam Adams though.

Here in New England we've got Samuel Adams! Great beer.

While I do not enjoy drinking beer (too bitter ... like tasting cigarettes)

You can't make a generalization like that. Depends on the beer. There's a LOT of different types of beers that taste very different from one another. You don't know what you're missing if you haven't had a really good beer.

The locals:

I love the beer from the Penn Brewery.

Penn Pilsner is probably my favorite from there. Followed by St. Nikolaus Bock.

Yuengling is alright.

Others:

I like the Great Lakes Beers, they were mentioned earlier, but they aren't really from my area. My favorite of the Great Lakes Beers is probably Nosferatu.

My favorite Brewing Company by far is Dogfish Head. They are located in Delaware.

My favorite every day beer from them is probably the Chicory Stout. I also Love their Raison D'Etra, Indian Brown Ale, and 90 Minute IPA. But the most intense of all is their Worldwide Stout and their 120 Minute IPA, both of which are around 20% alcohol. I like them a lot but at ~$140 a case I don't buy them often.

What about IRON CITY?

i like doing a half and half w/ a dark lager on the bottom, then slowly pouring a Woodchuck on top over a spoon. delicious when they start to combine!!

<img snippped>

This is the most popular brew in Turkey, I prefer the Dark version though.

The problem is though, it's like the only beer you CAN get there.. atl east when I went there for holiday (But I didn't drink then since I was much younger).

edit: Oh and yeah, I don't really like lager at all... I can enjoy bitter more so.

    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
