Apart from the Danes, the Italians are some of the more innovative brewers in Europe recently. How was that one? I don't know where you're located but if you can get your hands on some Italian grape ales, they are something truly special!

Some pics from Saturday’s share:
It was a 2011 and pretty nice. Some others were even more rare like the Vanilla Rye BCBS
Always love black lager. Even if it comes from Staten Island!
Another dark lager going down.
Went to Turning Point Beer’s 4th anniversary party yesterday and it was a blast. Picked these up as well:
The Black Tuesdays are from a Garrison Bros barrel that a few TPB members went in on.

I like Punk IPA. There are superb beers in the the UK now, and US craft beers are fab too. Belgium and Germany also have great craft beer - no need to get hung up on nationality - good beer is good beer.
In the end - living, hand-pulled beer is what I prefer. Probably illegal in some places! But you have to abide by Reinheitsgebot wherever you live, else you get fake beer that includes rice, etc.
I also like real Budweiser, which is not available (AFAIK) in the USA.
But as I already drink too much wine, I drink Punk AF (like IPA, no alcohol, but very fine if you've already has a skinful).

Any recommendations for amber ales? I’ve tried Fat Tire and Bell’s and was left unmoved. My favorite, Malt Shaker by Foothills Brewing, is no longer being bottled. My second favorite, Red Oak, is actually an amber lager, not an ale.

Maybe try Zoe by Maine Brewing Co if available in your area.

I'm gluten intolerant, but will have some GF beers when I can find them. But mostly I drink a lot of NY State Ciders.
Mac and Jack African Amber and Alaskan brewing Amber are popular around here. Depending on what your preferences are some holiday ales are based on ambers with spices added.
Cider has really grown up in the past decade. That's my wife's go to as well once she went gluten free. There are some great hoppy ciders. I like making a cherry cider every summer when cherries are in season.
Neither is available in my area, unfortunately.
