5 is a little early for me, I wait until daylight to start.

Dos Equis Amber is my current brew of choice.

with some fresh lime...

Im a Bud Light kinda person  

Pasteurized Stout 2.0

Rogue's Younger's Special Bitter and Widmer's Drop Top are my current two favorites (along with the occasional Speckled Hen and, another local brew, Deschute's Mirrorpond).

I don't like colored water.

and I don't like bitter beer! 

a friend of mine is really into IPA's.  I've tried more than once to "enjoy" a couple of different IPA's.  I just can't get into them...

Linear Phase


Pasteurized Stout 2.0

Once it's pasteurised you've had enough..

I love bitter beers, and port, stout also.

Just wish they weren't so bloody expensive, 8-10$ for a beer?

I brew wine, thought about breewing beer, it just seems to much work, wine is easy as pie.

I can handle ports and stouts, but my preference is brown/amber smooth.  OR a good red is great, too.

bitter beers always reminds me of my young days when we we'd buy Busch beer because it was really really cheap.  and it was bitter enough to make your toes curl!  but it was beer.  and it was cheap!

Growing.....?  as in home grown?
