    Each beer is an experience, to be savored and enjoyed. If I never have the beer again, I still treasure it for the pleasure it provided.

    Favorites:
    Any Octoberfest or Marzen style.
    Bocks. Shiner Bock is probably my go-to "craft" beer.
    Dopplebocks. It's like getting kicked in the teeth by malt.
    Dunkelweise, and it's amber companion Hefenweise, and just about any unfiltered beer.
    Kirini Ichiban, Tsing Tao, and most Asian/Indian beers - not quite up to American craft standards, but drinkable and they tend to match their cuisines in subtle ways.
    Dos Equis, half for the commercials and half for the decent taste.

    Don't likes, i.e., "What do you have on draft? ( . . .) I'll just have an ice water, thanks."
    Corona.
    Almost anything Miller or Budweiser.

    Other:
    I appreciate IPA's for what they are, and I understand them, but drinking them is another story. American craft brews are so enchanted with hops it breaks my heart.

    I have a sip of my moms beer a week or so ago. That one sip was so delish! I savored it all the way down!

    Favourite: too many to list. Leffe (all variants), Duvel, Chimay (all variants), Erdinger. Good ale (there are far too many to list, there are literally a thousand different ones made within 20 miles of my house and they change all the time). Of the American beers I like Sam Adams and Anchor Steam (that was a very acquired taste though, took a while for it to click). And Fruli, (which isn't beer so much as beer tinted strawberry juice, but so very lovely).

    Least favourite: Anything that tastes of nothing (ie the only things 99% of the UK population drink, despairingly); Carling, Carlsberg, Fosters, Heineken, Bud, and so on.

    Ooo I haven't had a pumpkin beer in a long time!
    Have not heard of Southern Tier. I think I used to buy Shipyard. Or Shipwreck.. something like that

    Shipyard. And it's delicious. I've been sampling as many pumpkin beers as I can find, and Shipyard is the standard to beat. Haven't seen any Southern Tier, though. Will keep my eyes open...

    It's rated the second best IPA in the world. It's phenomenal, but you have to drive to VT to get it.

    People always tell me beer is an acquired taste. But I don't understand why I would want to acquire it? It tastes yucky.

    I like crazy sissy beers, like Miller Lite, Corona, Bud Lite

    Least favorite, thick beery-tasting beer

    but I rarely drink and when I do, usually bourbon, something I can nurse
