Mad Dog!
I have never had a sub par Samuel Smith's beer. Then again, I have never tried one of their flavored beers. I'm more of a SS Oatmeal Stout kind of guy.
elephant beer its horrible do not get it if you are in germany EVER
also i really dislike sam adams boston lauger its god awful to me
I don't like Heineken either; I am a Grolsch and Warsteiner man.
But the funny thing is that Heineken always ranks high in blind tasting tests. Probably because it is so neutral, without an outspoken character.
Wild Blue. My girlfriend and I bought it as part of a build your own six pack, we thought it was a Flying Dog beer and figured we'd give it a try. Both of us thought it was way too sweet...almost like a weird malty fruit drink. It wasn't until months later that I found out about the whole AB/Flying Dog controversy and saw none other than Wild Blue being discussed! Turns out a lot of people dislike it for various reasons. More recently I had a sample of a lemongrass and ginger IPA from the cask at Cigar City in Tampa and didn't really like it at all. I try to make a habit of not judging a beer based on just a small sample, but it was pretty disappointing.
I had wild blue one day at a buddies house and he laughed at me when I tried to drink it straight. He mixed it 1 part sprite to 2 parts wild blue. Though not really a beer, and still pretty sweet, It was actually pretty decent that way.
