I can't find it locally but when I was in San Francisco on business I drank Anchor Steam. I thought it was awesome and I'm not much of a beer drinker. I prefer a Margarita made with 7up, Limeade, Tequiza Beer or Corona, and Tequilla. Good stuff.

Oh just incase you'd like to try:

12 oz 7up or Sprite, 1 can limeade, 12 oz Beer, 9 oz Tequila, mix and pour over ice. I like to lessen the limeade a tad and increase the 7up a tad with about 8oz of Tequila.

Someone start this thread: Your Favorite Mixed Drink Receipe, I'll be out of town until Tuesday. Stay safe and have a good one over the holiday.

Beer.....is good.
My favorite is Newkie! (New Castle Ale)
Also like a good Honey Brown or Bass Ale.

Best store bought brew I have ever had when I can afford to dump 25$-$30 on a case would be a chilled Warsteiner from Germany. The runner up would be Beck's Octoberfest, third Lowenbrau and dozens from fourth on like Moosehead etc.. I'll drink Heineken from time to time but I am not happy they do not follow the Rheinheitsgebot: The German Beer Purity Law of 1516 which says beer may only have four ingredients: malt, hops, yeast and water. Heineken has an additive. I made 7 different batches in a years time about 12 years ago yielding about 14 cases of beer or 2 cases per batch. The Honey beer would tickle the back of your throat and knock you for a loop. I crafted one to mimmick Samuel Adams with a high begining gravity which yielded over 7% alcohol and tasted great. Once you approach 9% it is not considered beer anymore but barley wine. I would not even drink Budweiser that year because they used corn etc.. but that eventually changed. It was a lot of work to boil all the bottles, caps, syphons, to fill all bottles correctly cap them etc. but well worth it. Like anything else the desire faded but when that stuff would ferment through the little water bottle cap on top of my bucket (which let gases out and nothing in), boy oh boy there was nothing like it! The smell was delicious and made you want to pop a brew. My old motto "I brew, therefore Iam".

Beers from Mexico, Great Britain, and Belgium are tops, IMHO. Bass, Newcastle, Guiness, Murphys, even Boddington and Belhaven are all pretty good. For Mexican, it's Dos Equis.. I've never been a fan of the German stuff.

New Belgium stuff is good as well, especially Fat Tire, 1554, and Beer de Mars. Locally, North x Northwest makes some great beer including a black ale whose name I forget.

If I drink domestic, I like to stick with Lone Star or Shiner. I am from Texas after all...

[aggiesarge]

Ugggh.. No Lonestar. Miller Lite for domestic.

Champagne of Beers - Miller High Life

Honourable mention to Pabst Blue Ribbon or Schlitz if I can find it.

Victoria Bitter (VB) in Australia, Calanda Brau in Switzerland, Kokanee from Canada.

New Belgium Brewing, Widmer Brothers, Fox River Brewing, and Tied House for Micros.

[Vegas04]

Young's Double Chocolate Stout (hard to find but tastes GOOD!!)

Guinness

Boddington's

Corona w/ lime

[NorCal 4x4]

Domestic - Bud Ice
Domestic w/import quality - Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale, Stout, or Porter.

My two favorites would have to be in no particular order:
Busch Light and (spelling) Yengling Lager. It is from up north (PA) and I have also had it in North Carolina
