    It used to be Guinness, until I went to Ireland and now I can't drink the Guinness we have here.

    IPAs!

    We have so many ridiculously good breweries in town here. My favorite is Double Haul IPA from Kettlehouse Brewery.

    Used to be a Bud Light girl - especially in those aluminum bottles. YUM!!! But, since when I do drink (which isn't that often), I tend to drink quickly (aka consume mega calories), I switched to Miller 64 and really enjoy it now. Doesn't give me hangovers or make me sick. I will revert to Miller Lite when the 64 isn't available, but don't care for it as much. The problem is most bars don't carry the 64 and when they do, they consider it a "specialty" drink so it doesn't count for happy hour prices. Bummer!

    The choices of some in this thread have literally made my heart shrivel and my boobs droop.

    Well, my favorite BEERs are probably Tommy Knocker Brown, Jolly Pumpkin Io, Liberty Street Pumpkin, and Bell's Kalamazoo Stout... but I'm a big "seasonal" beer drinker, so my tastes change frequently... but those are mainstays. I just had Brewery Vivant's "16th Anniversary Zaison" and it was amazing.

    i tried to make this point earlier in the the thread as well. the words favorite and bud light, coors light, corona etc.. should never be mentioned together unless its in this sentence. :)

    its like when kids think Spaghetti-Os are great pasta then when you become an adult you realize how far off you are....these bud, coors lovers dont know what they are missing lol

    Agreed. I'm such a beer snob. I'd rather drink nothing at all than any of those mentioned ... I'd probably accidentally track them as "water"

    That doesn't sound like beer. This thread's about beer.

    In my experience beer is an aquired taste so yes I've started with bud light, but have started to like microbrews and IPA's more and more. Call me a sissy, girly girl, or not a real beer drinker if you want!

    Love the high gravity craft beer stufff...unfortunately, high gravity also means high calorie.

    I perfer more micro-brewey type beers. My absolute favorie Guiness was knocked off it's lofty perch by Sam Adams Alpine Spring. It's a seasonal beer and I'm starting to see it back in the supermarket as of the last week or two.. I still have a fair amount of Winter/Christmas beer to go through and at 5 bottles a week (tops), it's going to take a bit before I get there.

    Yesssssssssss the Sam Adams spring thaw pack is out. There is one in there called White Lantern - frickin phenomenal. The maple pecan is good too.

    Two of my favorites of all time though are Sam Adams Cherry Wheat and Bruery Maple Autumn - awesome.

    Too many to name. I like craft beers the most though. Try out a few new ones every month

    How did I miss this thread? 1 hour left of work and now all I can think about is beer.

    My favorite is Two Brothers Domaine Dupage (French country ale).

    But....I'm not against old fashioned Budweiser in a can. Easy to smuggle those on the train.

    I'm currently enjoying Samuel Adam's Whitewater IPA and Franziskaner weissbier. Both very good. I rotate pretty regularly but my all time favorite is still Guinness draught.

    Alexander Keith's IPA or White.
    Any other domestic North American"brews" taste like fizzy piss to me.
    I'd much rather spent the extra $2 for a pint of something good in a bar (Stella, Löwenbräu, Tuborg, or a local brew) than torture my taste buds.

    Life is too short to drink cheap beer.
    Bud light makes me sick.
    The darker and thicker the better.
    I started brewing beer and prefer my homemade stuff.
    I love IPAs.
