20 Best Beer For New Year’S Eve (2022 Updated)

It can’t get any better than a cold beer, cool Allegiant stadium, and college football. 805 is a crisp, clean beer and perfect addition to any event. The 12 oz cans are perfect size for the fourth quarter excitement.

Highly recommended if you need an easy drinking beer that is similar to the 805 area code the name represents of the California coast.

High quality malt beer. What Sam Adam’s used to be. I prefer it to the double barrel. Firestone is a high quality brewer.

Great to know that California is still producing top quality beers independent from massive corporations. This is my go-to beer around the house. Goes down smooth.

I like Miller High Life and it is a quality lager beer, however, ever since I’ve started drinking IPAs my taste for regular beer has lessened. But back in the day, Miller High Life was my go-to beer all night long.

It is best when chilled in the freezer and ice cold on a hot day. It goes down easy and is a mellow tasting beer. But at the end of the day, the bathroom visits are quite frequent. I keep Miller on tap for my friends who are not really heavy beer drinkers because it is a light lager.

It’s good.

Does not say anywhere that this has 6 stella, and only 3 of the others, which are vastly superior to stella. Would not have purchased if I had known that, which it does not state anywhere. Literally every other 12 pack sampler has equal proportions.

I love the mixture they give you a beer on the box everyone will enjoy it’s beyond delicious and affordable they were very good price was ok for the taste

Great beer, pours slightly hazy with a good head. Taste is fruity slight blueberry and pine.

Golden Hazy color. Not getting much from the nose, some citrus. Not a bad NEIPA, just nothing special.

Im Not A Huge Fan Of Light Beer At All. All Of The Mexican Beers Are Unique In Taste Most Are At Least Tolerable. This One Is Not A Go To Of Mine If I Do Drink One It Will Be Once In A Great While. Ive Tried To Find Other Ways To Give It Another Shot But Up To This Point It Has Not Gotten On My Hit List.

Many Of My Friends Go After This Beer Because They Believe It Does Not Make Them Feel Bloated The Day Of Or Day After Drinking. Now I Dont Notice A Difference Myself But Who Knows. I Prefer A Much Stronger Beer.

Aroma is sweet, corn, some malts. Color is pale yellow with a short-lived white head with little/no lacing. Ample carbonation. Taste has a bit of sulfur, sweet corn, with little or no hops making themselves known.

No bittering. The finish is smooth and slightly sweet, with a thin presence. The body is thin. Overall, a refreshing pounder that is no better than a much cheaper American-brewed adjunct lager. People paying a premium are either doing it for the image or are getting ripped off.

Corona is a very popular beer, after many years of hearing about it, having friends and family who will only drink it, I finally had my first one when I was 40. I have to say I wasn’t missing out. To me it tasted like water.

Then when I added a lime to it, it literally tasted like water lime. I don’t understand all the hype around it. It’s definitely overpriced, I think you’re paying for the name the hype. I would never buy it again.

Alcohol is definitely one of those drinks that everyone has a particular personal preference and it’s not good to me. I would say save your money just buy the delicious lime with a glass of water 🙂.

I absolutely love this beer. It’s very light and doesn’t leave you with a bloated feeling. This is also a good choice for those who follow a keto diet. They have different flavors other than the original.

Prickly pear and pomegranate are my other go to flavors. This is kept in our refrigerator all the time. I highly recommend trying the other flavors.

When I initially signed up for a 5K sponsored by Michelob ultra I was not sure that I would drink any of their product. I’m not a huge light beer fan, and a beer post-race truthfully didn’t sound that good.

Of course, I had one of my best friends ever and while I was waiting for my podium opportunity, I couldn’t help but be tempted to give it a small taste after all. I was very pleasantly surprised by the flavor and how refreshing it was after such a good run!.

This is my beer of choice. There is nothing more refreshing and relaxing than a. I just love the flavor and it doesn’t give me a migraine like other beers. I don’t drink this unless it’s in a can as I feel the glass bottles and metal bottles change the flavor.

There is nothing like drinking ones of these and chowing down on a bag of chips while watching some TV with your spouse. For me, this is the best beer ever! I thank Michelob for such a delicious beer! I highly recommend this beer!.

I am a big fan of beer and I find the Mexican beers to be the best. Modello Especial and Corona Familar being my favorites and a little Sol to round it out. My favorite beer was Red Hook ESB, but they stopped selling it.

I was also a big fan of Andecker, and Hamms Preferred Stock – Both no longer sold. I still buy and enjoy Pabst Blue Ribbon once in a while. I am also a big fan of Fat Point Big Boca, but I live in the town it is / was brewed and can rarely find it.

They are saying they are moving across the street – I hope it is true.

Modelo is a #pretty good beer. I like #drinking it better with a lemon or a lime in it. It is a more #expensive beer. It is a very common beer in the # city where l live. A lot of people in night clubs and restaurants are drinking it.

I would recommend it. It’s just not for me. I would rather drink a Coors Light. Sincerely Terry L. terribleterry63.

Best Beer Ever!!! I love the crisp, clean taste it doesn’t have a bad after taste. It goes down smooth, very refreshing. They come in bottles and cans in various sizes. They make several different flavors.

It’s more of an all purpose beer. Parties, outings, spring events are just a few places to enjoy this delicious beer!.

At its core, Buenaveza is a very good tasting lager. The slight saltiness and hint of lime makes it the Margarita of beers, especially refreshing for hot summer days. I bought it to try, out of curiosity; I’ll buy it again for pleasure.

My friends seems to enjoy it, myself not so much. Different taste for sure! What I didn’t enjoy was the after taste. I’ll stick with “normal” beer.

I’m A Huge Fan Of Stone Brewing, This Lager Is Crisp And Refreshing The Lime & Salt Is Subtle. Also This Bad Boy Makes An Awesome Michelada. Please Fellow Beer Comrades Stop With Supporting Big Beer Companies And Drink Craft Or Local Cheers!.

When I don’t feel like having the coors light beer this is one of the beers that I go to because even though it’s not a light beer it’s not very strong the alcohol flavor in it is more than olerable, very satisfying crisp veet flavor.

It’s got a good refreshing taste to it when it’s ice cold it’s a classic. If you don’t really care for light beers or Coors light and you want something a little bit more stronger I would recommend trying the coors light regular.

The only thing that I can say negative about this is do not leave this beer out and then refrigerate it and let it sit out I find that with any beer once you let it get to room temperature and then it gets colder and then it goes back to room temperature and then you put it back into the fridge once more I’ve noticed that the taste does kind of get stale so if you’re going to be buying any beer make sure it’s just refrigerated and it doesn’t get a chance to get warm before you’re putting it back into somewhere that’s cold.

Sorry I tried to explain that the best I could. Hope this helps.

As for taste, it’s alright. It’s definitely all about personal preference! I know some that love it and some that hate it. I am in-between. i don’t fall to either side – however it’s not a beer that i usually purchase for me or my house, but if someone requests it or something I’d buy it.

Now, i gotta give an extra star simply because it’s made in Golden, Colorado and I have lots of friends who grew up there and I lived minutes from there for many years. and one of my best friends from childhood, her dad worked there foreverrr!.

I have been tapping the Rockies since before I was technically suppose to be! It has been my favorite beer for 20 yrs now. Coors got it right. I like a light, actually refreshing beer that is mild on the hop flavor.

Coors light is by far the most refreshing beer and the addition of the mountains turning blue when at it’s coldest, I am assured to get a cold beer everytime instead of guessing if they have been in the refrigerator long enough.

Many times light beer lacks flavor and I need some flavor to drink beer and that’s how I got turned on to Coors light when I was younger. I hadn’t found a beer I enjoyed. Full flavor was too much, light not enough and a friend suggested Coors light.

The first drink I loved the taste of it. These days I still drink it because I love the taste of it. I prefer bottled over cans because whether it’s real or not, I think bottles taste better. Coors light also gives me something else that other beers can’t/will never be able to give me and that is nostalgia.

Drinking a bottle of Coors light and it will bring back so many memories throughout the years. That’s another reason I stick to it, I don’t want to go back in time but I enjoy random moments popping in my head as I am sitting there enjoying a tasty light beer.

I am not a craft beer person, I do not know what you look for exactly in a beer tasting so I can’t talk of that here. All I can do is tell you it tastes good, when it’s cold indicator tells you it’s good and cold, it is refreshing and it’s got more flavor than other light beers I’ve tried.

That would be good enough reasons for me to try it.

I lived in California for a few years and discovered this little gem. I’ve since moved to Texas and it isn’t anywhere to be found here. I’ve been searching for it for nearly 20 years now. Recently a new liquor store opened up nearby and they take requests, Widmer Hefe was mine of course.

It’s been 2 months now, and no luck. If you don’t live on the West Coast, then you’re just out of luck. It really is too bad, this brand could easily go national, and im not sure why it hasn’t yet. Blue Moon did.

I would give this 5 stars. but it looses one due to availability.

Okay, first thing is first, a by the book hefeweizen this is not. I really don’t know how it is even listed as such, more like an American Pale Wheat. The traditional hefeweizen characteristics are not present here.

That tidbit aside though, and you get the following summation of this delicious brew. This is a very refreshing and delightful brew. Cloudy golden yellow in appearance with a thick fluffy white head that sticks with you to the bottom of the glass.

The smell is that of wheat, mild hops, and a large citrus presence. The taste that follows will put a grin on your face from ear to ear, a great tasting citrus wheat beer flavor. This is what Blue Moon and Shocktop want to be, this is what they should have been.

The flavor then rounds out with a mild hop bite at the end, just enough to let you know it is there and give you that crisp fresh tang at the end. The mouthfeel is mild to moderate. Not so light as to be watery, but light enough to be refreshing to the palate.

Not sticky or heavy at all, and as a smooth character as you take gulp after gulp. Overall this is an awesome brew. I can’t think of many better offerings for a warm summer day. This one is awesome in all respects.

Will absolutely seek out and purchase again. And again. And again. And again.

Many years ago I lived in near Düsseldorf in Germany and there drank Altbier and Hefeweizen bier. After returning stateside I was delighted to discover that Widmer Bros brewed both biers using the formulas I enjoyed in Germany.

Apparently the Altbier is no longer available from Widmer, but their Hefeweizen remains the best that I have tasted outside of Germany.

If you like hoppiness, this is fantastic. Similar to Palo Santo Marron which is 1/3 the price. $8/bottle is just more than justified when the 90min is pretty good and you get a 6-pack for the bottle price.

Try the Palo Santo!.

I have tried their 60, 61, 75 and 90 minutes version but much like a pot roast you just can not roast perfection. I normally hate IPA is unbalance messes but this beer hit the spot for even a stout fan.

The acidity, hops, bitters, sours, etc, balance in a way that make all their other version taste like practice for the real thing which is this excellent and wonderful beer. Only an aged (4-10 years) World Wide Stout would be a better beer from this brewery.

Both sell for a similar price an both age well up to a decade bit most of mine are only a few years old.

This one is a real treat. Best to sip it from a brandy snifter. One or two is all it takes. Impressive taste and strength.

Dear Stella: In my lifetime, I have associated with all manner of beer drinkers. IPA lovers, the REALLY hardcore craft beer connoisseurs, and the classic frat-party Coors and Budweiser fans. I don’t drink beer regularly, I am a red-wine drinker.

but in the summer – this is my go-to. IPA’s burn my pallet out, craft beers just get too fancy, convoluted and confusing, and the other brands of party beer don’t do it for me. By association, I’ve tried everyone from dark stouts, to the most exclusive and highly touted IPA’s on the market.

This should really be considered “the champagne of beers. ” The flavor is light, pleasing; the hops aren’t too overpowering, and it is really just a delight to drink. This is a staple in my fridge come the long hot California summers.

Thank you, Stella, for being you.

I love Stella Artois. when I go to Applebee’s I am forever buying at least one. I love everything about this Lager. It has a very smooth taste and goes well with any food. when it comes from the bar it is served with a glass that is frosty and the beer is ice cold wow I can almost down it in one sip.

The price is a little more but you have to try it You wont be sorry. The other Stella’s are just as good as well.

New Belgium is one of the only beers that I will buy in the store. I appreciate how their IPA’s are strong and bold. Their voodoo ranger and fat tire varieties are great, and my husband really like the Trippel that they make.

We buy this brand all the time.

Who doesn’t love variety? That’s why buffers are so popular! This is like a buffet of beer! I would never know I liked some of the other flavors if they didn’t have a variety pack for me to try it! I think the sales increase because you open people to flavors they might not have tried before!.

Nice variety of IPA and others. I’ve been drinking mostly IPAs lately. This was a nice change of pace. Half of the beers are IPAs but the other half are non-IPAs.

We were first exposed to this on a trip to New Orleans. It became our favorite for lounging by the pool (SPF 10,000 for those of us with vampire complexions) or just strolling through the quarter. Andy Gator and Amber are other great options as well!.

Purple Haze is one of the flagship beers of Abita, along with Amber. If you buy this beer for the first time you will not regret it and while you’re at it, you might as well buy another different Abita six pack.

You can mix and match to make different types of beer: Barney Andygator® and Purple Haze® Fill bottom half of glass with Andygator® and top with Purple Haze® Golden Retriever Golden and Turbodog® Fill bottom half of glass with Turbodog® and top with Golden.

Hound Dog Amber and Turbodog® Fill bottom half of glass with Amber and top with Turbodog®. Purple Pooch Purple Haze® and Turbodog® Fill bottom half of glass with Purple Haze® and top with Turbodog®. Turbogator Andygator® and Turbodog® Fill 3/4 of glass with Turbodog® and top with Andygator®.

Love Abita beer but this is not one of my favorite flavors. Brewed in my home state of Louisiana so I know they make a great product. This one is just a little too strong and bitter for my taste. I prefer the amber.

Okay wow these are good! The flavor is authentic and refreshing! Other hard seltzers are weirdly malty with a little fake sweetness to them. I’m so happy I found these! The grapefruit is my favorite.

Tastes like a fresh grapefruit squeezed into plain seltzer water with vodka. This is going to be my go-to summer drink!.

Not a hard seltzer kinda gal because they all gross me out but these are actually really good. I was actually shocked at how yummy these are made a believer outta me. Highly recommend these

Great taste without that strange fake sugar aftertaste with most seltzers. Refreshing, light, and perfect amount of alcohol. This is my go-to instead of Truly, Vizzy, and White claw.

When I first drank this I was so surprised! I wasn’t expecting much from it especially not to have it jump to the top of my go to list! It’s a nice IPA and the hint of cannabis aftertaste is amazing! Sounds weird but it works so well.

I would absolutely recommend this beer. If you like IPAs try it!.

For me, this is one of the best beers. I prefer hoppy beers to wheat beers, and lower alcohol beers, since I have a mild gluten allergy, arthritis, osteoporosis at age 67. Some alcoholic beverages like wine that have a much higher alcohol content can cause very achy joints for seniors the next day due to inflammation.

SW 420 beer does not cause inflammation or GI problems for me, if I only drink 1 or 2 occasionally. Great beer.

Crisp, fruity and refreshing Ale. I love this beer and traveled over 30 miles to one of two stores that sell this Atlanta based beer. You will truly enjoy SweetWater 420 and I am truly happy to see it here in Minnesota.

Wonderful, full flavor Malbec. Purchased Alamos for the past few years from Total Wines in Myrtle Beach and now in Wilmington. Never had a bad bottle; paired with tenderloin and lamb.

I came across Alamos Malbec (2014) at my fiance’s uncle’s restaurant when we were visiting them two summers ago. It’s medium bodied and very smooth. You can purchase a bottle for fairly cheap, 10-11 dollars at most.

Don’t let the price fool you. This is a great quality wine. It is what I would call an incredible value. There are juicy, savory yet tangy dark fruity notes, along with a pronounced spiciness on the finish.

It is perfect to pair with BBQ, heavy saucy ribs or pulled pork.

Someone brought a bottle to a party I had. I was surprised at how good it was. It virtually was one of the best wines I’ve ever had. Malbec 2019. I went out and bought a case! You won’t be disappointed! Love, love, love this wine!!!.

Brooklyn’s Bel Air Sour, as all the Brooklyn line, continues to impress. A sour is made from the fermented mash of the last brew. It’s allowed to age and ferment under precise conditions to impart a sour, tangy, funkalicious flavor to the next generation of brew.

It requires an applicable pallet. Not for new drinkers. A seasoned beer drinker will find a delicious new treasure trove in the sour from Brooklyn.

I tried this for the first time last week at a bar near Total Wine. I stopped on the way home and bought some for the fridge. I would have passed it up based on price alone if I hadn’t just tried it.

Beer this inexpensive isn’t usually this good! There are two ABVs produced in this beer—my Total Wine carries the higher ABV (thank goodness). The beer is very light bodied—think American-style lager.

Nice level of carbonation and a decent, creamy head. The sourness is a lot like sour cherry. The taste doesn’t linger at all, super clean finish. But while it’s there, it is on! I am a big fan.

Definitely tart up front, but not overly so. Flavor-wise I get grapefruit and a tropical fruit vibe. A tiny bit of hop bitterness in the background, with mild carbonation and a smooth, dry finish. It reminds me of Odell Sunny Rain a little bit, with less hop bitterness, and more sour.

This one is really enjoyable if you’re open to sour beers. Very easy to drink.

Glutenberg Blond is wonderful. I have been a great fan of European lagers for decades. About one year ago, I became quite upset after being diagnosed with Celiac Disease. I could never have any beer made with barley or wheat ever again.

I tried many gluten-free beers. Glutenberg Blond is the closest thing to the “real” thing. It is crisp, just like a good lager. I highly recommend it. If you have Celiac, I would go with Glutenberg, rather than the beers that are made with barley but then undergo some chemical process to remove most of the gluten.

Better safe than sorry. I tried the Glutenberg White also. Very good but not as good as the Blond. I have not tried the other two or three Glutenberg varieties of gluten-free beers.

I recently needed a gluten-free beer and went searching for one that still tasted normal and am glad I found this one. Alcohol content is a bit low but that’s to be expected when making a blonde beer from corn I suppose.

Otherwise it’s quite pricey. I think it’s quite over priced in my opinion but it’s a good overall beer. My rating is based of the niche market segment it’s in and not it’s price. If I rated for price til I’d take away a star for sure lol.

As a celiac, I don’t have a choice of what is in what eat or drink. But I do have a choice of brands. Gutenberg is my absolute favorite beer. Most of them anyway. Blonde, IPA and white are superb and I can do without stout or red, but your mileage may vary.

Try them all and let me know what YOU think!.

I tried some of this beer yesterday, a little unsure of a strawberry beer. I don’t drink beers with berry flavors usually, so I did not know if I would like this or not. I was so glad I tried it because it turned out to be really good! It has just the right amount of strawberry notes coming through.

If this kind of beer is something you usually enjoy, I imagine you would really like this! And if you don’t often drink berry beers like me, give it a shot! Maybe you will find something new that you like!.

Love this beer! It is blended with Louisiana home grown fresh strawberries and can only get this beer during strawberry season for that purpose. It isn’t strawberry flavored beer it is a sweeter beer that more hints toward strawberries and leaves more of an aftertaste than actually tasting like strawberries.

One of my favorite things to do is mix half of one of these with an Abita Andygator. Absolute perfection! Keep in mind you’ll only need a six pack of these. High alcohol content!.

hands down my FAVORITE BEER EVER! A hint of strawberry that tastes like actual strawberries and not processed syrup. Still tastes like a beer, without being too sweet. Not sure how they did it, but it’s perfect! Only negative is it is seasonal.

Most certainly something wonderful to look forward to around my BDay every year.
