Dry Dock i think its brewed in perth its just a super standard beer that just satisfies me. i love sharing a carton of this with my mate
Carlton fusion black this is a new beer thats come uot and its a bit of a marketing scheme i think but w/e i really enjoy it. its a "citris" beer w/e that means. taste kind of like pepsi its different.
Cold another super standard beer i will never get sick of i love the great quality for such a cheap price
you can probably tell i love cheap pale ale beers and thats probably because i cant afford anything else hahaha cheers broskis keep up the good work!

Guy looking for good New England beers should check out Allagash, they put out some wonderful high end micro styles. the Quad and white ale being among the more notable. I believe they are located in Maine. Southern Tier also makes some incredible beers. They are upstate new york as I recall.
Guys repping Chimay should check out Rochefort. They produce the same styles (dubbel, tripel, Quadruppel.) yet they are generally regarded as producing a more refined product. Downside is they are can harder to get your hands on.
I'm super jealous of the fellow with the Abyss, never been able to get my hands on anything from Deschutes. Heard nothing but the best though. I just love beer, I'm open to virtually any style and go out of my way to try as many different things as possible. My bottle collection/ display case has about 400 different brews. Got my hands on a full case of Founders Breakfast and 5 bombers of CBS during the recent releases. So I'd say those two gems are my current favorites.
Cheers!

Woodchuck Hard Cider. This is the most delicious beer I have ever tasted. The inclusion of a masterfully crafted flavor theme, with the addition of complimentary spices.. This is truly a drink to try! My personal favorite is the flavor 802, which is derived from the company's area code in Vermont. This drink has a very crisp, dry taste, as I quite don't like wet, watery beers, which have a very 'cheap' taste. This flavor incorporates the flavor of caramelized sugar, which gives me deja vu of a popular country dessert-ish dish where I'm from, fried apples! Drinking this beer is quite an unique experience, leaving you wanting more. Hope you get a chance to try this some day!

@Flamingo777 You might like Crispin if you can get it wherever you live. Another good Hard Cider.

I usually stick to shiner

@Carpal I live in North Carolina. My state's beers taste like grass, so I have to experiment. Thank you for the suggestion, I will look for it! =]

I don't know if anything here is from the southern Wisconsin area, but if you've ever had Spotted Cow from the New Glarus Brewing company, you've tasted the angels' Brew.

So many outstanding microbrews in Oregon (it's like an Irish Gold Mine out here lol). My current favorite is Hop Czar by BridgePort. It is a very hoppy IPA, but the hops used are soooo delightful!
Have tried many posted here... Delerium is one I used to enjoy when I lived in Europe, as well as Du Demon from France (12% iirc !). The best thing about American microbrews are that they are free from strict European brewing laws which allow for more experimentation. Beer is one of the few things this country is doing right these days lol.

Figures that Stokes's would meet on a beer appreciation thread! :D
Sam Adams was actually the only decent beer I could find when I lived in Virginia. That and getting lucky finding an import at the supermarket.

The Woodchuck Ciders are awesome, especially if the traditional taste of beer turns you off since they are sweeter.
If I had to make a top 3 of beers I have had, it would probably be Yuengling, Sam Adams, and Tucher. I went to Germany about 2 years ago and got to go to a beer tent. Tucher on tap is so fucking good.
Dos Equis is pretty good as well.

San Miguel: Red Horse (bitter, high alcohol content) best of the Philippines.

The wall of beer at the Jaya33 grocery here in Petaling Jaya:

I've tasted quite a few of these. The ones with alcohol content greater than 10% are bitter as hell but they pack a mean punch, most especially the red Kingfisher beer at the bottom row. This one kicks your brains in at 14.2% and costs MYR 7 (around USD 2.25) for the 500mL can.

When it comes to strong beers, I really enjoy the Canoe Strong Gale Winter Ale. It's very flavorful, definitely a seasonal ale, but it tastes sooo good and you'll find it knocks you flat on your ass, too!

Has anyone ever tried Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout?
I saw it at a local liquor store and was thinking of picking up a case next week-end. I haven't really had a lot of experience with stouts though, so I was wondering if anyone else had tried it before, and what they thought of it.
My experience has been pretty much limited to the occasional Guinness, and last week I got a case of Aphrodisiaque, from the Quebec brewing company Dieu du Ciel.
I thought it was pretty good. Very smooth, with malt and vanilla flavour, and then a nice after-taste of dark chocolate. I'd recommend it, though it's a little expensive (for me anyways) at 20$ (CAD) for 6 bottles.
