After reading all the recent beer postings, I got curious: What's in your beer fridge? And to add a philosophical angle, what WOULD BE in your beer fridge if you could have any beer you wanted there?
I need to snap a photo of my beer fridge, right now I have a German Dunkel and a Belgian Sasion on tap. I’m planning on making a German Helles next weekend which will be ready in in time for Spring.
Cheddar is there any other kind?
A Helles eh?
I was thinking about brewing the same thing next weekend.
Great minds...
Cheers,

Indeed, it’s a favorite of mine. 4.5% of refreshing joy!
BEER IN A FRIDGE??
NO!
No beer in fridge, unless it cheap crappy american lite beer. I make irish style extra dry double stout.
Extra black, extra alcohol.
It stays in a closet in the basement. No refrigerators. Ever.
Did you ever try SN Celebration Ale?
I’m a wine/beer steward, and sold a lot of that.
The Early Spring Brew is doing very well, too.
What about the IPA stuff? Anybody a fan?
Don’t drink beer, so I have to ask around.
I wish I could get some of that Castle Beer I had in South Africa. I haven't seen it in the US.
Funny you should ask.
At the moment, the Stella Artois/Hoegaartse Wit/Leffe Abbey Ale assortment pack.
Just went through a case of the newest Shiner beer, the one they produced for their centennial celebrations, Commemerator. Mildly disappointing: despite the -ator suffix, it is decidedly NOT a doublebock.
Spaten and Rolling Rock.
Beer Ping!
A low to medium ping list aimed at all of us who, well, love our beer…
FReepmail rzeznikj at stout or GOP_Raider to be added or struck from the list…
The Celebration was very good as was the ESB. I was thinking the ESB was an Extra Special Bitters.
The best IPA, imo, is St. Peter’s. This is actually the beer that got me thinking about making my own beer. I gave up on making IPA though. I seem to do better with stout.
Nothing in the fridge - I keep my beer at cellar temperature.
Too many to list...I’d be accused of having a Beer Arsenal.I prefer to call it the Strategic Ethanol Reserve.
I just finished some assorted homebrews from my niece’s husband, who has just started. Pretty tasty!
IPA in fermenter at the moment - bottling next weekend.
In our cellar (aka the basement)
A bunch of Lunatique Belgian
some Chimay triple
A dozen or so bottles of Fullers ESB
A bunch of Arrogant Bastard
Lots of Samuel Smith Pale
3 6 packs of Old Peculiar
dozens upon dozens upon dozens of bottles and growlers full of homebrew...much of it not labled but most of it IPA’s, Stouts, Barleywines and various bitters.
currently: harp, smithwicks, arrogant bastard, atwater vanilla java stout, dogfish head 90, bell’s hopslam, dead guy ale, stone ruination, dogfish head scottish porter, ebulum ale, skull splitter, and dirty bastard.
what would be in my fridge: uh, i don’t know, i’m always game to try new stuff.
You, sir, have a wonderfully large beer fridge!
I salute you!
Arrogant Bastard,one of my favorites.
