    I could not possibly pick a favorite beer. I couldn't even pick a favorite brewery.

    In fact, I can't even pick a favorite type of beer, but the top few would be:

    Cascadian Dark Ale
    American Black Ale
    Indian Brown Ale
    India Pale Ale
    Maibock
    Imperial Stout
    Marzen
    Black Lager
    Pilsner

    We're blessed to have some great breweries here in NC:

    Foothills
    Green Man
    Asheville Brewing
    Duck Rabbit
    Red Oak
    Pisgah

    (to name a few)

    I like almost anything I've had by Flying Dog, Left Hand, New Belgium and Dogfish Head.
    If I'm at an establishment that has nothing like this, I usually end up with a Sam Adams or Guinness.

    Right now, there's a Founder's Breakfast Stout waiting for me to reach my next weight loss goal (double chocolate, coffee, oatmeal stout).

    If I had to pick just one favorite today, though, it would be Dogtoberfest. I had my first sighting of the year yesterday and it's waiting in the fridge for tonight!

    Heavy Sea- Peg Leg Russian Imperial Stout & I don't know who makes it but Dragon's Milk Stout.. Was thinking about making it my recovery drink..

    Dragon's Milk is from New Holland Brewery. And is the BEST.

    I think you may be right. It's certainly one of the best I've tried, but way too costly to get very often. I saw an oak-aged Old Rasputin at the store once that was just slightly more expensive than gold. The saleslady suggested that I use my tax refund to get me a few bottles. I suggested that she give it to me for my birthday. I imagine it was excellent. If you're ever in the NC Piedmont around February I suggest you try and find some Sexual Chocolate. It's an imperial chocolate stout and is pretty close to the best, too, but usually only around for a few weeks.

    Oh, and I might have to steal your idea for the recovery drink!

    Yep - haven't found a bad one by them yet - those two are just my two favorites.... proven after much research of course...sometimes perhaps a bit too much...but all good in the end 8)

    Truth. Once I left Savannah, GA, couldn't find it anywhere -- not Alabama, Illinois, or Colorado. :cry:
