    Weihenstephaner.
    It's an AMAZING wheat beer, simply delicious. A bit pricey, since it's a german import, but well worth it as I don't drink to get drunk, I drink to enjoy the beer.

    As my preference changes regularly, I can't pick a favorite. For a time, I'll be into lagers, then switch and prefer ales, etc. etc.

    I've found that heavily marketed beers typically aren't that good, excepting maybe for Sam Adams which is decent. But overall, I think I tend to gravitate toward microbrews.

    Right now, I'm heavily into Porters. Problem is, the selection of porters where I shop is limited to two brands. But at least I can get one.

    If I'm at the pub, I always start off with a black & tan, which is really the only way to get it. Tend to prefer darker beers like Guinness & Black Lagers (proving you can't go wrong with chocolate).

    English Stout Bitter's are also pretty darn tasty...as are a lot of stouts. I'd love to go to England and try a real bitter.

    I don't understand where there are so many IPA's on the market. They're okay, but the shelf space needs a wider selection where I shop. Seems like every darn brand has an IPA.

    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    Stella but my favorite beer if I'm looking for slightly cheaper alcohol is coors.

    Tripel Karmeliet is godly, one of my favourite beers. Belgian beer in general is phenomenal.

    Have you tried the Rochefort Trappistes beers? They're to die for, especially the 8 and 10 versions.

    I've lived in South Carolina, North Carolina, New Jersey and Alaska. I've also driven across country twice and driven through some of Canada. Out of all of those places and all of the different beers that I have had the pleasure of trying I would have to say that my favorite is Alaskan Amber. I still can not get the desire for that beer out of my head. I remember exactly how it taste and I am disappointed every time I try an ALT style beer that isn't close to it.

    A pitcher of cold Alaskan Amber went down so smooth and sat just right in my stomach.

    I love all kinds of beers but this one is the one beer I will likely never get to drink again and will think about for a very long time.

    I'm really enjoying Scottish beers right now -- Orkney and Traquair especially.

    However, I did spend a week up in Waterbury, VT on a Winter vacation and I've been ruined. Talk about an amazing place for beer lovers.

    I like mine cold to the point just before chunks start to form. Doesn't have to be any brand in particular, just that it's cold. God forbid I'm drinking pisswarm beer then it has to be Corona or Sofiero.

    Anything from the Wychwood brewery really.

    Screw that fancy Heineken, it taste like lemonade and drinks like Lemonade!

    And if you go for the real beer, I think I will take a Belgian Duvel <3 Nom nom!
    There is one HUGE problem though.
    Any true brewmaster will tell you to NEVER put beer in either green or clear bottles. There's something with the photosynthesis. Light filtered through green glass (or unfilitered through clear glass) is said ruins the chemical consistency of beer. Altering the taste. Essentially ruining the beer. Beer should be in either kegs (nothing beats wooden kegs for that matter), or if in bottles, those ought to be brown or black (no light through whatsoever).

    Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier truly is amazing, it's earned a permanent place near the top of my list of favorites. Their Korbinian (doppelbock) isn't far behind, and damn it pairs well with so many types of food.

    I think it's passable (as is Leinenkugel's) -- but after spoiling myself with Ayinger and Paulaner (the Märzen is superior to the Wiesn, which still isn't bad), it's kind of hard to go back. I think those two are best-in-class, at least for what's available locally.

    Leinenkugel's rarely gets any respect from the die-hard crowd (probably because Miller owns the company), but I still maintain that their Sunset Wheat is greatly underappreciated. Summer Shandy is quite nice on a summer afternoon as well.

    They will change your damn life. I have never had a brew as fresh as this before, and still have yet to find something match it. It's hard to get though, so I typically just stick with their standard IPA series.
    Unfortunately it doesn't look like I can get it in Florida. Shame. I always want to try new Stone beers.

    I actually think 90 Minute is way more balanced than 120 unless you can sit on 120 for a year. Plus I can't stand the shit storm that happens when it's released locally. My favorite bars become unbearably crowded.

    I know where some Hopslam is, but upon going to the store they said they haven't put it in the system yet so they couldn't sell it to me. Gotta check back Monday, but of course I wanted it so I could drink some this weekend. >:|

    Personally a good budweiser hits the spot for me. I used to swear by fosters when younger but over the years i kinda stopped liking it and moved on and tried lots before settling on bud :P
