I miss good beer. They rarely get any quality beers here on base in Korea and when they do it's gone by the time you hear about it.
soon I'll be home to some wonderful IPA's, Pale Ales and generally anything made with lots of hops.

I only drink beer that I get on base... the local stuff does nothing to me... I knew that 24 yrs in the military would be good for something someday...
I'll admit to liking quite a few local beers. A surprising number are higher alcohol content than 3.2. Bummer you have to go to the brewery or State stores for most of it. Locally, any Epic is pretty darned good. Coming from California, I still pine for my favorite, Indian Wells Brewery, Lobotomy Bock... WAYYYY to smooth and easy to drink for over 10%. Other locals I like include Devastator, Anniversary Barley Wine and Captain Bastard's Oatmeal Stout... I will admit to a preference for higher content brews though. I grew up in Kansas, 3.2 was the common beer and 6% if you were over 21. So, 3.2 isn't just a Utah thing.
Also, apples to apples, 3.2 ABW is the same as 4.0 ABV. There are a few other oddball states that make the mass produced shitty beers label by ABW instead of ABV, but it's silly.
I like good beer, I don't care what ABV it is nor has ABV ever so much as entered the decision making process for what beer to drink. If I just wanted to get drunk, I'd drink a good whiskey. There are more multi award winning beers at the Smith's across the street than I bet there are on base. Well, I guess I don't really know what the selection on base would be like, but my guess is it's a bunch of party balls of budweiser (which is the same budweiser I can buy at Smiths, only in a party ball
) and some shitty Mickey's grenades. I can't say I've ever had or seen anything else that came from base, but I'm sure they have some options.
Curious, anybody been on a Coors or other light lager brewery? Did they show you the special "utah 3.2" beer? Ha ha, thought not.

Oh but on base has a fine selection of micro brews from Oregon, Alaska, Cali, Colorado and just about anywhere else. I bet you would be quite surprised at the quality of the selection of actual good beers on base.
I love any beer that has good flavor obviously that's all personal preference as far as what constitutes good flavor but just about any American Lager does not qualify.

XX with lime, while eating hamburger patties w/tonys salt straight off the hot grill is how I relax after a hard day at work. Tonys helps to stay thirsty.

I hit Indian wells last summer, good stuff
Slovenia has some awesome beers, just can't get them here
I get my beer from base they have a good selection
Beer helping ugly people have sex since 1862, saw that an a sign somewhere
Just rambeling, now I need a brew
Agreed on the selection on base. All my point was about earlier was painting "utah beer" with a broad brush takes a lot of flavor out of reach. I no longer drink to get drunk, but find a lot of flavor in higher contents brews personally.
And you do realize, lime in Mexican beer wasn't for flavor, but to keep the flies away...

Newcastle nut brown ale for me. Preferably in a cloned home brew, or one of my own concoctions!
The kid agrees too!
