Draught Guinness. It's. so. creamy. Even better when I throw a shot of Kraken into a pint. ohgodyes

Delirium Nocturnum is also phenomenal, but in a beer-connoisseur kind of way. Huge depth and range of flavor, great texture, pleasing aftertaste.

Something I just found last weekend is a black&tan called Mississippi Mud. Great flavor and aftertaste for something that comes in a 32oz jug.

Coors(light), Busch(light), Grolsh, Leviathan, Bud(light), 2 or 3 of the miller flavors(summer ale is probably the most tolerable beer I've drank), Blue Moon, Corona(light), Guiness, and several others that are cheap enough to be not worth mentioning
I don't...man, I don't know who introduced you to beer, but they need to be smacked. The only good beer you've had in that entire list is Guinness, and it's definitely not a beer that's meant for everyone. If you can get your hands on some Kraken Black Rum, I highly suggest you put a shot of that into a properly poured pint of Guinness, and then give that a try. Somehow, the Kraken near-completely nullifies the bitterness of the beer, while introducing the heavy tones of spiced black rum.

A couple of things you might want to try:

Pretty much any hefeweizen, but Franziskaner is a pretty good start for someone not accustomed to beer.

Newcastle Brown Ale is another good point, but it might be a little bitter.

Something like Sam Adam's Cherry Wheat, or the Sea Dog Blueberry Wheat Ale, might also be a good place to start.
I've done that, and it's alright, but the grolsh, laviathan, and blue moon are supposed to be pretty good, at least that's what my richy-rich friends from boston say. They had a couple of others but I didn't like them either, they came in massive bottles like the laviathan if that helps. The title of one of them might have had something to do with a beaver? I drank a lot of tequila that night and I don't remember many details. I've also had another dark beer like guiness but I can't remember what it was called either. And yes, most of those beers are shit beers, because when I drink beer it's almost always at a party. Only the ones I've mentioned here were supposed to be anything other than shit beer, and I can't remember half of them.

Not sure if I like Guinness all that much. Yes, its quite drinkable and probably better than most of the beers that will likely be on offer but... its too creamy. Almost like downing a pot of cream, and I get a weird aftertaste with it and a strange feeling down the back of my throat.

Guinness fresh pulled from the tap hands down. Sweet baby Jesus that's good.
Also had Tuborg from the tap once which was amazing as I recall.
Wish that Brew Dog beers were more available in the US because their Punk IPA had a really crazy flavor and I was hoping to try more of them before I left the UK...but I didn't :(

Honorable mentions:
Spitfire
Hoegaarden
Stella Artois
Blue Moon


Also I enjoy 40 ounce Hurricanes surprisingly. mmmm dat malt liquor.

Keith's IPA, Kronenbourg 1664 (and Blanc), Corona, anything from Mill St., etc. etc. I like beer so this could go on for a while. I've also been known to sample the occasional chocolate stout.

Well, most of the beer I have tasted is quite good, but I do have a soft spot for a bottle of Erdinger. It's very refreshing and it has lots of taste, it goes great with food too. I also like Duff beer.

Stella Artois or Jupiler for a casual drink
Kwak, Duvel or Kasteel Bruin for something stronger
of course the occasional pint of Guinness

If I had to pick one though: Hopus

My favorite would be Old Rasputin Imperial Stout. Although that Scottish Imp stout at 18% sounds impressive; Old Rasputin is only 9%.



It's as rich and delicious as it looks.

It's another one of those beers from the Pacific Northwest, by the way.

I usually go for Stella Artois. Sometimes I enjoy Barbar (honey ale). I used to drink a lot of St. Bernardus Abt in the past.

I recently found a new favourite ale:



Sadly I've only found it in one shop near me so far, but it is a lovely dark ale.

Or I'll keep it simple and just go for a Murphy's stout.

Oooh well , Chimay Tripel ( the white capped bottle) is my favourite beer ,a really nice Belgian Trappist brew ;0).

Worthy mentions go to O'Dells IPA, Sierra Nevada IPA and Orval, with Golden Pippen from the Copper Dragon brewery scoring very highly for a nice easy going ale.

For lager it goes to Steinlager or Becks bier ( not the on tap Vier_)

Stout has to be a Guinness if at home, if away then Murphys. Orkney Dark Island is awesome too, initial tasting brings to mind the evil child of Guinness and Newcastle Brown Ale.

On that wonderful note, Im off to see whats in the fridge

Cheers.

Polish beer Dębowe mocne, 9% alcohol and 100% pure awesomness in a bottle.

I also quite enjoy Czech beers, particularly the brand Černá Hora (It's Czech for Black Mountain).

I'm a beer aficionado. I love too many kinds and varieties to give a "best" based on taste alone. Really depends on what I'm in the mood for.

However, my favorite overall beer has to be Finnegan's Irish Amber from Minneapolis, MN.


It's drinking beer for local charities. It can't get any better...unless it's found to also cure cancer.

Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA is some amazing stuff. It's an Imperial IPA that clocks in at 9%, is wonderfully hoppy but is balanced with malt. If you can find it and like big ales, it's worth a try.
