I saw phobicsquirrel had posted about a disappointing beer he had, and I was wondering what everyone else considers the *best beer they have ever had. I'll go first:

Found a bar down in Alabama that happened to serve these, and at about $12 (for the 11.2oz), it blew my mind. Those Monks sure know what the heck they are doing...

Moylan's Imperial Stout. Ca.
-
Way too many for me to pick one. If you point a gun at my head I'd have to say natty light
-
I'm quite fond of Russian Imperial stouts. Avery's Czar is good, as is North Coast's Old Rasputin. Of course my home brewed beer ranks highly too.
-
Lol....what about natty ice?Direwolf:Way too many for me to pick one. If you point a gun at my head I'd have to say natty light
Dogfish 90 min ipa -
Corona with a lime followed by natty light. I'm not a huge fan of beer so I don't drink it much.
-
It would be a tie dogfishhead 120 minute IPA, and Old Peculier....both completely different, and delicious.

+100,000,000. I think my body is 87% NattyDirewolf:Way too many for me to pick one. If you point a gun at my head I'd have to say natty light -

+1 to anything from Great Lakes. I always try to pick up at least the sampler box and a Christmas sixer whenever I can make it home for the holidays. -
Tooth's Sheaf Stout (now owned by Foster's and called simply Sheaf Stout)
-
The best beer I ever had was a Bishop's Finger at a pub in Canterbury, England. Back home I spoil myself with a Hacker-Pschorr occasionally.
-
That Chimay is a great beer. Costco here by new has the 750ml bottle for $10. If you like that try celebrator. I can't remember the brewery. It starts w an "A". Also try St. Bernardus Apt12. All great dark Belgium beers.
-
I hate IPA, and I hate most micro-brews that I've tried. Can't stand Sierra Nevada, Anchor Steam, etc. My favorites are probably Fat Tire and Guinness, although I recently tried another amber ale (Alleycat Amber) and it was phenomenal.
-
I really enjoy IPA's and have to say it a 3 way tie between Dogfish Head 90 min, Dogfish Head Squall IPA & Southern Tier 2x IPA.
-
If I'm not pounding them. I like to sit and enjoy a Newcastle Brown Ale. Funny thing is, I'm really not an "Ale Guy". Not convinced I've found an absolute favorite. Hmmm. Kinda like cigars......
-
Favorite "everyday" beer... Surly Furious or Fulton Sweet Child of Vine
Favorite "one time" beer... Bell's Hopslam
Yep, I like hops... it seems to be a Twin Cities thing.
BTW, I'm new here... love the forums as a lurker but figured it's time to start posting! -
For me it's a tie between Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale and Fuller's London Pride. Guiness comes in a very very close third.
-
Was going to mention that one myself, if I had to pick a favorite beer that one would be pretty high up on the list. Also the St Bernardus Wit is very nice, they make a quality beer. I'm not a hop-head, so I really appreciate a full flavored beer that's not too bitter. Have been enjoying the brews from Hangar 24 quite a bit, they're a local brewery about 40 mins away from me.cmartin:Also try St. Bernardus Apt12. All great dark Belgium beers. -
Leinenkugel Sunset Wheat, Holy Mackerel Panic Attack, Innis & Gunn Rum Cask
-
In this order:
1)Cold
2)Open
3)In front of me. -
Vulchor:Leinenkugel Sunset Wheat, Holy Mackerel Panic Attack, Innis & Gunn Rum Cask
+1 on the Sunset Wheat. The Summer Shandy is also good on a 90+ degree day. -
Love Samuel Smith's oatmeal stout and their organic ciderJDH:For me it's a tie between Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale and Fuller's London Pride. Guiness comes in a very very close third. -
Pyramid apricot ale and add a orange slice it's great and or Drop Top with a lemon. Yes I fruit certain beers sorry but try them.
-
Anchor? - not too badUnthought_Known:I hate IPA, and I hate most micro-brews that I've tried. Can't stand Sierra Nevada, Anchor Steam, etc. My favorites are probably Fat Tire and Guinness, although I recently tried another amber ale (Alleycat Amber) and it was phenomenal.
Sierra Nevada - meh - I'm with you on that
Fat Tire?? - Dude!!! - that's worse than BOTH Anchor or Sierra ....imho of course!
Guinness - winnaahhh!! - one of my favorites
From 2000 to mid 2003 I spent 50 to 70+ days/year in London (worked for an English company)
2 Guinness for lunch and 4 after work was pretty much par for most of the guys who worked with me, Mon - thru Thurs.......Friday's were much worse............I developed a pretty serious Guinness habit which stayed with me for a year or two after working that job...........whew!
-
I think we can all agree with that, and +1 chimay is a great beerbandyt09:In this order:

I can't pick one specific beer, but imperial IPA is my favorite type of beer right now. I can't wait for Great Lakes to release Lake Erie Monster again.
-
I'm an imperial stout whore. My long time favorite was North Coast Old Rasputin, followed closely by Drakes and Ten Fiddy RIS. Sierra Nevada 10th anniversary Barleywine is mind blowing, but i only have t bottles left. IPA's is Lagunitas or Stone Ruination. Amber/Brown would be Lost Coast Downtown Brown and a local microwbrew here in town called Sequoia Red. Too damn many to pick an overall winner but if you held a gun to my head it would be 21st Amendment Monks Blood which is damn near impossible to find, im don to my last 4 cans
. -
Lagunitas IPA is my go-to. I love me some Pliny the Elder when I can get my hands on it (or get my ace up to Santa Rosa).
All in all, though, I like trying new stuff. Kind of like how I am with cigars. Have ones I like, but don't drink them because I've had them before.
