[ilikefishes]

Hey gang Im starting a NEW pass kinda suggested by Rod.Everyone sends me ONE stick to start with, no restrictions send what you want.I'll start the pass, we do the usual take/put thing so we get to try new stuff and Rod will be the last guy...he gets all the sticks!!!(Rod did not suggested this that was my idea) what to you say
One way to pay heim back and have fun at the same time!!!
Any takers?

Got gout?

Yeah I know, but the jury is still out. This years batch was the first one I've loved. Joe tweaked it. If it's as good next season... :love:

I read thru the thread and I dont know a single one! Loll

For my part (aside your usual New castle, Bass and Guiness) I love :

Uniboue :
Maudite
Segneurial
Fin du monde
Terrible

St Ambroise black

And many other smaller craft beers from the local brewries that come and go as they change their their taste and try something new.

After living in the Bamberg, Germany for three years, I learned what good beer really is.  This was, is, and always will be my top 5.  Nothing else has ever come even close.
 
Due to the localization of the beer, I have only had a few of them since I left in 2004.  I have not had #1 again since the Sandkerwa Festival in 2004 before I left.  So all of these beers also make up my wish list.
 
1.  St. Georgenbräu Keller Bier - St. Georgenbräu
 
2.  Erdinger Weissbier Dunkel - Erdinger Weissbräu
 
3.  Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Märzen - Brauerei Heller-Trum
 
4. Fässla Zwergla - Brauerei Fässla
 
5.  Spezial Rauchbier Lager - Brauerei Spezial

 
I think you have to be drinking to pronounce those names.
yeah! it will be a little bit hard to buy a beer with such a name!

Some good suggestions here but a few bad ones too. My favorite beers are from Stone Brewery. My regular beer is Sierra Nevada Torpedo Ale. It is very tasty and bitter!!

Didn't see this last year, probably cuz of the kid.
 
Top 5:
BCBS (Any of them really, proprietor's was amazing).
Surly Darkness
Odin's Raven
Stone Russian Imperial Stout
Churchill's Finest Hour (I remember saying it was amazing, but at that point I was seeing myself in 3rd person).
 
Wish list:

Odin's Raven (I live in SD and it's still impossible to get)

 

[b.dawgson]

Oi... I'd have to say:

BCBS
Stone Enjoy By
Bells Black Note
Boulevard BA Imperial Stout
Sculpin

 

[mu mike]

There are so many great beers I haven't tried (which is probably something all of us could say).  But here is my list of personal favorites:
 
BCBS
BCBBW
Three Floyd's Zombie Dust
Mother's Doozy
Founder's Backwoods Bastard

 

[b.dawgson]

That Backwoods Bastard is SOOO Fantastic!!!

 

[theronray]

Westbrook Mexican Cake
Stone Enjoy By...
Firestone Walker Velvet Merlin
Community Mosaic
Holy City Collision Stout (w/ toasted marshmallows)
 
Sadly some of these are very limited releases and 2 I cannot even get here.
 
It's difficult to narrow this down to just 5.  There's so many more out there (Sculpin, Ten Fidy, Xocoveza,...)

Zombie Dust
Grapefruit Sculpin
Guinness
LH Milk Stout Nitro
