I used to be a Guiness Guy, then started brewing my own and have branched out and gone astray. I'm REALLY into wheat beers now...
Blue Moon
Celis White (if you haven't tried celis brewery beer.. you should, though avoide the raspberry)
Sam Adam's Summer Ale
and my everyday beer is Budweiser Select

I feel the need to confess that I've been (relatively) "slumming" lately when it comes to beer and drinking...
Amber Bock.
it's soooooooo yummy! Such a guilty pleasure.

I've never really developed a taste for beer, Just too bitter for me.
Wine doesn't taste good to me....
Port I love. Brandy makes me happy.
Scotch I enjoy sometimes. When i can find a nice comfy couch and some good conversation to go along with it.
I've had some rather tawdry get togetheres with a gentleman named Jack. A fellow named George that wore a White band around his hat used to visit quite frequently.
And of course, theres always that wild latina that causes you to wake up either in a field, or a tailer park. Mezcal.

Any good dark beer or ale from a micro brewery. Granville Island Pale Ale or Honey Brown Ale are gifts from the gods to us poor mortal souls.
You can keep your factory swill, Blue, Canadian, Bud, ect.....

I would rank Guinness as my favorite. Altho, I can't drink too many of them.
Some others I like are, Sam Adams, Heineken, Becks, Spatan. And for whatever reason I like Corona too mainly because I can drink a truckload of the stuff and never get a hangover. Maybe the lime has something to do with it.
I refuse to drink cheap beer anymore even if its free. That stuff gives me a wicked hangover. And I had enough of "the beast" in college to last a lifetime.
As a side note I tried Grey Goose Vodka for the first time about a month ago. That stuff is good altho pricey.

Goose is pretty good for vodka that is easily obtainable. If you can get it, though, I highly reccomend Mor vodka from Estonia - really awesome. Also highly recommend Elduris from Iceland.

I'm really surprised no one mentioned Newcastle Brown.
Can be drunk at room temp if required, but its better if chilled
I also liked Brains beers when I was in South Wales, Brains Dark isn't as 'heavy' as Guinness, and Brains SA, AKA 'Skull Attack,thunder and lightning in a glass'
Other than that, I tend to drink Heineken as its easy to get in Florida

Newcastle Brown, Pale Ale or Nut Brown Ale is the good stuff alright, but its bloody hard to find at times and you pay a premium here for it. For less price you can get an equally good ale brewed by one of our many local micro producers.

Thumbs up to the Stone Brewery Ruination IPA that I tried last night.
