I now have to update my list. I spent a week in Kodiak, AK and had some of the best beer out there. The local brewery is the hightlight of Kodiak. There is not much else to do in the town. The brewmaster makes about 7 or 8 beers and all are abvailable to sample on tap. After sampling all 8 you can buy up to 2 pints for $4 each. My favorites were Liquid Sunshine and the oatmeal stout (cant think of the name, had too much of it.) We actually bought a growler of the stuff back to los angeles. Great beer. He also will give you a tour of his brewery. If anyone is in that neck of the woods, this is a sure place not to miss

I enjoy good Pilsners, IPAs, stouts...how the heck can I pin it to one favorite?

I recently enjoyed a Saison Dupont winter brew. Delicious!

Well, I work for all the major breweries so whichever is paying my tab while traveling is the beer of choice.
They're all about the same anyhow.
Although my favorite is free.

I am generally not a beer drinker, but I still have a few that I prefer.

1. Stella Atois
2. Guiness draught
3. Romulan Ale (Quark Bar, LV Hilton) Blue, but still tasty.

But it's very different from your usual bock. I would have recommended Shiner 98 to a bock drinker, but probably not the 99.
Okay, good to know. Since I did not get an answer before I left for the weekend, I went with St. Arnold's Spring Bock. It has a slightly bitter aftertaste that you don't get with Shiner Bock, but quite tasty nonetheless.

Glad to hear that somebody talks about old school US beers... Schlitz is factually one of the best beers in the USA, but after the reformulation flap in the 1970s it has a very bad reputation... try it... it comes again in a glass bottle in some markets like FL

I bought a sixpack of Landshark Lager for Easter. Ended up mixing mai-tais instead and cracked the first bottle of Landshark tonight. Disappointment. Too sweet and a little syrupy. Just another no flavor American brew. If it comes out in a lite version, it's sure to be popular.

Favorite hands down because I can't get it all the time: Stone Russian Imperial Stout. Local specialty beverage store is getting some in, had to have them set aside a dozen for me. Hopefully I can hide a few from myself to age.

If I"m feeling hoppy, Dogfish Head 120min IPA or Rogue Hoppy Froggy IPA when I visit home back in Seattle.

When its blisteringly hot and I just want to down as much liquid as I can: Moosehead.
