What is the best beer on planet Earth?
Submitted by Remmy Van Hornie.
If you know me at all, you will know that this is a preposterous question.
However, let me plug the Holiday Spice Ale as well, from the Tied House brewery & restaurant in San Jose and Mountain View. It is called "PIE BEER" by myself and 5x5, largely because, well, it's liquid pumpkin pie that will get you drunk. Seriously, is there anything that compares to that in the whole wide world?
However, you can only get it here in the Valley, and only around Christmas, and only fresh from the source (which usually entails filling up a jug and keeping it at the back of the fridge - or just drinking it all fast fast fast). So in the wider world, where you have to be able to get something good anywhere from the Piggly Wiggly to the Last Drop on the Greenmarket in Edinburgh, remember: GUINNESS FOR STRENGTH.
This is the greatest thing ever.
How does it taste? Very malty, not too sweet, the same finish as an actual pint. It's what you'd expect that the priest-collar head on a properly poured pint SHOULD taste like but doesn't.
