Favorites or honorable mentions...lets go!

Unibroue (just about any they make, and I have tried most of them)
Dogfish Head (really lovin the Punkin latetly)
Sierra Nevada (Torpedo & Pale Ale)
Allagash Belgian White

Sam Adams Boston Ale and Octoberfest at this time of year.
There's a friend of mine in Fitchburg who makes his own. His Summer Ale is absolutely perfect! I heard Angels sing as I quaffed one last Summer, it will haunt me until next Summer.

Great thread Jenn.

It is really tough for me to pick a favorite. I take forever to pick out something at the package store.

Whenever I can't decide, my go-to beer is a Bass Ale. I just can't go wrong with it.

But I'm not a snob either. I'll drink Budweiser anytime at friend's houses.

The one thing that I'm going to miss from Striperfest this year is Harpoon Octoberfest.

I wonder if Gansett will mind if I BMOB :rotf2:

I brew my own and there's nothing as good out there.

For storebought beers I like New Castle Nut Brown , Pilsner Urquelle , Sam Adams Boston Lager , Magic Hat Blind Faith. There is also a good Imperial stout out there but I forget the name , I know the bottle though.

More and free...I like that! :)

I quit drinking beer once. Worst ten minutes of my life!

Beer is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy.

Now why would you ruin a perfectly good Guinness by mixing it with anything else?

Just returned from a week in London, so I'd have to say, Fuller's London Pride.

Bob, if you can't find it on tap make sure you get the CO2 cans at the packy.

That is why my version of a Black&Tan is in the right hand a Guinness and the left hand an ale or lager (Octoberfest works fine) and never the twain shall meet except after it is too late in the stomach!

Adding to perfection, only makes it imperfect.

My Guinness shall never be mixed with anything.

Head north regularly to hike or ski, and make a point of visiting the Tavern at the Woodstock Inn in No. Woodstock, NH. Good food and a micro-brewery. Try the Pig's Ear Brown Ale. Some local stores carry Woodstock brews.

In my opinion, Guinness isn't even the best beer brewed by the Guinness brewery. I'd take a Smithwick's first, then a Guinness.:cheers:

I'll be having a few beers tonight, but unfortunately the selection will be pretty poor where I'm going.

I like these both since there are times when I'm in the mood for a "meal in a glass" or a beer.

(I learned how to order Smithwick's like a local. It's pronounced Smithicks, not Smithwicks. If you pronounce it with the "w", they know you a re a yank'.

Guinness does go very well with fish 'n chips. (kind of like beer and pizza)
