The sharper and more ginger, the better
If you do too, what brand(s)
Sent Elk a bottle last year for his birthday. Love it with chinese food! (Donn remember the brand but I believe it was from Oregon )

LOVE IT! I agree - the spicier the better. We don't have much selection out here in the boonies, but one local market always has Reed's Jamaican style Ginger Beer in stock - very good!

Reeds extra w/ 27 v. 17 grams of ginger makes a big difference, but I find it a bit too sweet for my taste. However, sometimes one has to take what they can get...
Publix makes a diet ginger ale that is very good...
Reeds mixed with a PBR is the closest I get to a summer cooler. Actually, very delicious and thirst quenching on a hot day and goes great with a strong cigar.

I just don't get the PBR attraction. It was a cheap,crummy beer that gave one the farts 30 years ago. Has it re-formulated?
PBR!

I lived in Detroit areas and visited the plant when I was a kid. Used to buy their ice cream too. Tasty, but not ginger beer.
Used to get it from a local soda pop maker that required you to return the bottles.
They had all the flavors: orange, cream soda, etc. but the ginger beer was my favorite.
Now I always keep it on hand, but too often I find myself not drinking it straight in fear that I'll be out of it when I feel like pouring a nice Dark and Stormy with some Goslings black rum.
Screw it.
I'm gonna drink it straight and just enjoy it for what it is.
Heineken? F**k heineken........
That's what AHM talkin' 'bout! At least PBR is never skunky like that green bottle crap. Truth is I was talked into trying PBR again when I went out west last year. I hadn't had one since I was in my 20's (back when dinosaurs brewed the beer) but remembered liking it then. It's actually not a bad hot weather brew, nothing complex or special, but quite drinkable compared to others in this price range and several above it. We drank it out there so we could keep drinking without getting tanked, like if we just drank homebrew. A good beer for laying down a base layer, as my cuz puts it.
what about Ginger ALE?
