Default Favorite Beer ?'s

So, I live in the middle of the snobby world of $100 a bottle wines, and have (I think as a sign of my rebel way of thinking) gotten really into good Beers. What is your favorite beer and why? My favorite right now is Newcastle! Just curious.

My favorite is Molson Canadian. Okanagan Springs pale ale is pretty good too.

Newcastle draught tastes great, better than bottled. I recently burned out on Pilsner Urquell and now prefer good ol' Budweiser. Fuller's London Summer Ale tastes great, too.

When beer was a happening thing for me, Heineken, St Pauli Girl so cold there was ice on the bottle, as served at the Seven's on Charles st. in Boston, or a king Miller outside on a cold winter day, breakfast of champions.
I got to a point where I would drink a half bottle left overnight on the coffee table with a cigarette butt in it, so kinda segued away from it.

I still have fond memories from highschool of BREW 102 and Schlitz Stout Malt Liquor. Let's not forget the ultimate mixture of Cutty Sark whiskey and gatorade. The fast delivery followed by an ultimate smooth cruise - no clothing just the dry desert wind striking our face in that slow motion arid ocean where the bronze contours change face along with the interacting fronts, where cold meets warm. The quiet storm.

Just about anything from McNeill's in Brattleboro, VT: Dog's Breath, Dead Horse ... We have tie-died tank tops from them that say: "Beer is the reason I get up each afternoon."

ROTFL....suzanne that was great!
Cafe Eau had Framboise Lambic on TAP...the servers drank it, they gave it out in large glasses instead of the smaller ones etc....so it went by the wayside, but man it was GREAT.
I like Schalfly (home town), or Sam Adams....am contemplating going to a friend's Beer dinner on the 28th, guess I better get ressies....
