    Well, I brew my own so I've tweaked recipes to fit my tastes:

    1. Amber ale with Cascade hops and lots of Amarillo hops. Smelled like flowers, tasted like heaven.

    2. Edmund Fitzgerald Porter clone with more dark roast for a smooth coffee finish. I call it the "Little, Brown Porter"

    3. Honey blonde - 2-row, honey malt, Willamette hops, Cascade hops for finish. Great summer beer.

    Next I'm gonna try a cherry wood smoked stout. Noms!

    Sadly, my two favorite beers aren't available in the US (that I can find). I found em when I went to Australia. Carlton Dry and 150 Lashes. I also acquired a taste for cider. Here at home, it's either Coors Light or Woodchuck Hard Cider

  • Favorite? Probably Shiner Bock or Guinness Extra Stout. I've been trying to reduce that alcohol/beer calorie count though and one of the most efficient ones I've found and readily available is Natural Light. If drinking is a big part of your diet check out http://getdrunknotfat.com/

    Two favorites: Bell's Oberon and Paw Paw Brewery's Raspberry Wheat
  • I home brew my own beer and my best/favorite summer beer is my Honey Cream Ale with a hop style a bit above what the style calls for. For colder times I brewed up a Christmas spice beer last year that came out great. I'll brew it again this winter. It was a recipe I designed based off Sam Adams Old Fezziwig Ale. For commercial beers I probably would choose Bells Two-Hearted IPA Ale as one of my favorites. I don't drink much beer anymore but when I do, I like what I consider the good stuff.

    Chimay when I'm feeling snooty. Stella, Harp, Guinness, or DB Vienna Lager depending on where I'm drinking at the time.

    And you can't beat free beer-- unless it's cheap **** like Natural Light. Yeah, in that case, no.

    I could keep going, but this is just making me thirsty.

    Dude knows what's up.

    My favorites:
    Oskar Blues Ten Fidy
    Oskar Blues Old Chub
    Oskar Blues Dale's Pale Ale (OB rules)
    Squatters Hop Rising IIPA
    Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA
    Stone Ruination IIPA
    Odell Myrcenery IIPA

    Lately, Uinta's session brews have been doing it for me. At 4% ABV, they're a good brew for those days where I ate too much to enjoy a heavier craftbeer. I love Uinta's Cutthroat pale, Baba black lager, Wyld EPA... well, pretty much all of their session beers are doing it for me lately. Stoked for pumpkin beers!

    Many awesome brews already named. I love this bit of ambrosia from my local microbrewery: Quilter's Irish Death.

    Truly a majestic beer.

    Also their Smoking Gunn. My local will only serve it in half pints because it's so strong but so tasty it gets you drunk too quickly!

    Also, Wells and Young Banana Bread beer.

    Plus every dark, stout I've ever had from a micro-brewery.

    Agree with you on the light (Not Really Beer) Beers but to their credit there are some Great 'craft' beers coming out of some of the microbreweries over there.

    Mass produced beers like that aren't my thing but if you like 'anything' Spanish, you should try Alhambra Negra .. now, that's a tasty drop.

    Arrogant *kitten* Ale....can't get Stone brewery beers in the state I moved to 3 years ago. If I'd realized that ahead of time I seriously would have rethought the move...
