Good Beers? Official Beer Lovers Thread
Hey fellow beeraholics. Quick question, what are some good beers to try out there? My preference is towards stouts, though I'm also a big fan of trappist and belgian beers (like Chimay.) I'm not a big fan of pale ales, especially India types, though you can go ahead and include those since they make for a good Black and Tan. I'll go ahead and include some great beers I've come across. Please include where I can buy them if possible.

Murphy's Stout (SUPER smooth)
any Chimay (grand reserve, premier etc.)
Drake's imperial
San Quinten's Brake Out Stout
Samichlaus Bier (14% alc., yummy)
Kriek Lambic, or any lambic for that matter (chick love this stuff. Tastes like soda witha shot of vodka. best part is that it is usually 10+% alc. and gets the ladies buzzed quick)

Murphy's is my favorite. Also a big Guinness, and sometimes Boddingtons drinker.
If ya like the harder stuff, try Sierra Nevada's Bigfoot Ale, 10%+ i think.
If Im just drinkin cheapo beer, usually drink Corona or Red Stripe.

I am real stoked on Bohemia. It is a slightly dark mexican beer, kinda like Modelo Negra. But it has just an excellent taste to. You guys really need to try it.
And if I have to drink cheapo beer, and I know all of you are going to say, YUCK, Miller High Life goes down so quick and smooth it is unbelieveable. Ice cold Miller High Life on a day like today would have been perfect.

Dang - what an awesome idea for a thread... :D
Beeeeeeer.. One of the top five favourite things of my life. My favs:
The best beer evah: Magic Hat #9 but anything by Magic Hat is awesome. Can't find it here tho.
My favourite beers:
Mahana Red (from my home, Hilo Hawaii)
Just about anything from Magnolia in SF (that place is NOICE)
Gordon Biersch Dunkles
Big Daddy IPA
Fat Tire
Widmer Wheat
Red Hook
Tel-Aviv Brewhouse Moonlight ale
Yuengling Lager
Kronenbourg
My usual drinking beer: Smithwick's
Boddington's
Guinness
Guinness Extra Cold Draught
Rock Bottom Racoon Red
Steinlager for those cheap nights and Pacifico is great to chug as well.
But wow, I don't think I would ever have a use for a Bud or a Miller. Just not into that, nothing wrong with them. Though for some reason $2 Pabst works well on Tuesday nights. Haha..
One of my fav beers was Rock Bottom Kolsch - but they discontinued it thos fockers.
