Sam Adams has some good varieties but I don't like their regular lager at all. Like most of their winter "variety (12) pack."

Flying Dog's stuff is very good too.

And of course anything English. Their food is pathetic but they know their beer.

I rarely buy Guinness, which I'm sure is on some lists. No complaints really, but it's not consistent and I've just never been impressed.
I've really "edited" my faves down to a few:

Sam Adams Boston Lager and the Noble Pils

Pilsner Urquell

Lowenbrau

Stoudt's German Pilsner

Prima Pils

Spaten original and their Octoberfest

Paulaner

Bitburger

Bass and Smithwicks

I also enjoy Negro Modelo, San Miguel or Red Stripe on a hot day

Any Mexican beer is usually my favorite. But I will not turn down an ice cold Bud Light or Coors Light. Any hefeweizen on draft is delicious too.

Have you tried Pliny the Younger? I actually like it better to be honest. Just like I enjoyed Dogfish Head 60/90 Minute IPA more than the 120...

I haven't tried Pliny the Younger but i've heard it's mythic & awe-inspiring! Even though I'm in Cali, it's tough to get since it tends to sell out very fast at the bars/pubs that have it on tap. I'm determined to keep on trying

GT I was a huge Molson and Labatts fan in college, but honestly I think the 2 have gradually gone downhill in recent years. Dunno, maybe it's me, just IMO
