It's nice here in the Yuengling belt. You don't have to ask if they have it on tap.
Go to a bar/ restaurant as close as Northeast NJ and they might have bottles, if any.

I have a microbrewery down the street from me and they have great beer. Their "Caber Tossing Ale" won a gold at the Great American Beer Fest a few years ago. Otherwise I like a lot of different brands. I really like the Optimater from Spaten. Nice and dark. Yum, yum!

Nothing suits my fancy like a bottle of Jim Beam Black Label.

Canadian beer is good but I guess I'm biased.

Do the other Canucks here have Keith's or is that an Atlantic Canada thing?

Alexander Keith's

We got Keith's, but i'm not a big fan of it. Like i've said, Canadian is the way to go. Also, have any other canucks here tried Molson Kick? Loads of fun for 2 or 3 hours but then its quite the crash.

Very nice! It makes me wish I'd kept all of my bottles. I do bottle caps - they're easier to move.

And whomever said Yeungling, good on you...that's some pretty good cheap beer. I have to bring back a case when I go to Florida.

You guys are making me proud!

I have had beer in Asia and in Europe and there are a couple that haven't been mentioned.

There is a beer from france Called Kronenburg 1664 which is the year they started brewing it. Very good.

My personal favorite which I started drinking after my trip to Europe is Warsteiner. Their Verum is very good and for those who like a dark beer they have a premium Dunkel. Both are excellent. Their motto is "Life is too short to drink cheap beer".
Kronenburg also brews a good dark beer.

After four years in Germany and two Oktoberfests was really impressed when I got back to the States with Sam Adams. If you're buying I'll drink anything, but if I'm buying, I like a beer with some flavor and substance ie. not bud lite...

I am a total liquor snob. Labels only!

I love my
Midori
and
Margaritaville Tequila

As for beer- I am a loyal Bud light drinker. I love my bud light. Don't like anytihng else. When I was young and poor I drank Busch which gives a wicked hangover.

My buddy was just up in Eau Claire last week, and said the Leinenkugel he had was pretty good...we get it around here, so I'll have to check it out.

Duvel is a great beer from belgium.

Also, for American beers, I really love a good barely wine. That is a great style beer. Sierra Navada make s great one called 'Bigfoot'. Anchor Old Foghorn Barleywine is also fantastic. It takes a real man to drink the stuff though.

Also, even though it is hard to believe, Pabst Blue Ribbon is a very easy to drink beer with a nice aftertaste, even though it may be one of the cheapest beers in the world lol.

Try one some time, you'll be surprised.
