What's your guys favorite beer? Domestic or import, microbrew or comes-out-of-a-huge-vat, just list one or by category... My favorite all-around beer is probably Leinenkugel's, I've tried Creamy Dark and Honey Weiss and they are both amazing. As for cheap domestic beers, I love Old Style.
Cheap Domestic Beer: Lone Star Fancy Beer: New Belgium Abbey Ale Extra Fancy Beer: Arrogant Bastard Ale, or anything from Belgium
Favorite Styles: Belgian; Abbey Tripels, Saisons, Quadrupel Abt. Imperial Stouts India Pale Ale/Imperial IPA Barleywine Witber/Hefeweizen (wheat ales) Doppelbock Favorite Beers (brands): Chimay Bleu Duvel Delirium Tremens Storm King Stout Ayinger Celebrator Ommegang Hennepin Southern Tier IPA La Fin du Monde (Unibroue) Trois Pistoles (Unibroue) Westvletern Abt 12 Hopdevil IPA Hoegaarden Allagash White Allagash Grand Cru Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale Anchor Steam Old Heathen Imperial Stout (Weyerbacher) Dogfish Head 90 min. Imperial IPA Arrogant Bastard Ale Rogue Mocha Porter Old Speckled Hen Druid Fluid Barleywine Samuel Smith's Imperial Stout Orval And those are just a few...
Leine's is pretty good, i live in WI and it's still overpriced here so i don't drink it too much. Leine's red is pretty good, i think Leine's amber isn't that good though...It's not bad by any means though.
that is something that constantly changes, but my current fav is DogHeadFish brewery's Pale Ale. one of my all time favs is Butte Creek Organic Porter. also, nearly everything from Vermont's Otter Creek Brewery is excellent!
i like barney flats oatmeal stout the best (from mendicino county) i like sammy smiths nut brown, crooked river porter, great lakes porter, harp, PBR, and most IPA's
I go for Coors Light by the bottle. I also go for Sleeman Honey (made in Canada). I consume an average of 4 bottles a month. I do not generally drink much except at social functions.

Have any of you connoisseurs of fine cheap malt liquors tried Sparks? It's kind of a 6% alchohol Red Bull...
If I had to choose one beer as my favorite, it would be Bud Lite. But the beer I drink most often is Kirin. Any time I go to an Izakaya with friends, we always get Kirin because that's the beer they have available. It's not my favorite, but it's good beer. I haven't had Bud Lite too often, but I like it.
must say pressed rat....that sierra nevada celebration ale is mighty tasty....your list was very impressive i love beer and love experimenting with the different kinds.....or rather taste-testing....so.... my list would be quite long....
