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.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
