I’m an Icehouse man myself. But Coors and Michelob are good. Don’t care too much for Miller beer. As always…bottles beat out aluminum cans.
There are just SO MANY good beers out there, it’s impossible to narrow it down to one favorite. I’m fond of anything Sierra Nevada makes, though. I also like anything Anchor makes. North Coast brewing is good, too. Damnit, I can’t even decide on a favorite BREWERY, much less a favorite BEER.
I know this will sound like heresy to beer lovers everywhere, but I prefer Miller High Life. I used to drink lots of Coors, but the Coors I get here in Alaska doesn’t taste the same as the Coors I got back in Kansas.
I know, I know - both of those beers are like sex in a canoe…
Coors is good, as is Keystone (Coors in a different can). I like the occasional Iron City, too, though I don’t know whether that’s anywhere outside of Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio.
I used to really enjoy Michelob Dry, before it went away.

Root.
John Courage or Bass. I’m a snob, and I know it.
It’s been many a year since I sampled a brew, but if memory serves, it would be ‘Little Kings cream ale’ out of Cincinati, Ohio.
Tremont Ale (prefer on tap)
Harpoon IPA
Smutty Nose Old Brown Dog Ale
Pete’s ESB - on hot days
Caffrey’s
In that order, probably
Moosehead…I just love it. It’s brewed in Halifax, NS. It’s my personal fav. that I can actually get on a regualr basis.
The ultimate beer (which I can only get once every year or two) is Alpine. Also brewed by Moosehead brewries…but now shipped to Ontario yet…If you ever go to New Bruswick/Nova Scotia I highly recommend picking some up.
Have a nice day.
Oh yeah…give micro brewries a try…they’ll suprise you.
Bass.
Guinness. It’s good for you.
Afligem Tripel (I’m sure that’s spelled wrong). The Champagne of beers.
Hmmm…I’m a Sam Adams man myself, but I have to say I tend more to the microbreweries. Of course, being in highschool, I usually get stuck with monkey piss
missbunny, fine taste in beers you got there. It’s Affligem, BTW. Pretty close eh
Anyway, if you like Affligem Triple, you’ll LOVE the following:
- Kasteelbier Triple
- Leffe Triple
- Westmalle Triple
- Orval Triple
My personal favourites are various and depending on category:
Lager/Pilsner: Grolsch, Warsteiner and Hertog Jan
Stout: Murphy’s Irish Stout (smoother, silkier than Guinness)
Belgian Trappist: Westvleteren Abt (a 12% beer, possibly my overall fave)
Belgian “Sweet”: Oerbier, by the Dolle Brouwers (“Insane Brewers”) Brewery. It’s so sweet your teeth will fall right out, yet it has a very captivating taste (and I’m not a sweet beer man, usually!)
Damn, I’m a man of good taste
I mocked up two links. Being the swell guy I am, I decided to fix them right here and now:
Go here for Grolsch and go here for Warsteiner. The rest work fine in the post above.
Canadian beer is wonderful…American beer… horse piss
Kokanee is a good one, of course there’s Canadaian as well…very tastey.
My absolute fav is Tin Whistle Beer out of Penticton BC.
Hugh bottles, the most refreshing beer on the planet.
American beer is substandard by comparison. Then again, Canadian beer pales in comparison to English and some European beers.
Yours beerly,
Graeme
Corona or Harp.
Why, thank you, Coldfire. Re the Affligem Triple: a few years ago I bought a case for a serious beer-o-phile as a wedding gift. I had never had it before, so I also bought a single bottle to try out before I gave a case of something that might be horrible. My taste buds haven’t been the same since.
By the way, my friend said it was by far the best wedding present he received.

My favorite is usually whatever you put in my hand as I walk in the door (actually hands, as I am ambeerdexterous - I can drink with either hand).
