Was in WI this weekend so I drank a lot of Miller Lite at Summerfest. Also had a couple of martinis too.
 
Had a couple of MGDs at the White Sox game, not the same as Imperial Stout, i'm screwed now, all i do is compare all beer to I. S..
 
Uncle Jackson's Blonde Ale, brewed by a local microbrewery ingeniously named The Brewerie.
 
Last night I had a 2006 Gouden Carolus Grand Cru of the Emperor. It was freaking fantastic but was much sweeter now than the last time I drank one.

We just got Bear Republic this week! I'm drinking a Racer 5 after a brutal week at work. Hop Rod Rye is next!

You're in for a treat! Both are fantastic, but the Hop Rod Rye is out of this world!

I've had them before, that's why I was so excited that they finally are available here. I did also pick up the Pete Brown Tribute, which is a new one for me. They say Oskar Blues is coming next!

Mark, if you liked the Local 1, try some Rochefort 10. There are so many good beers out there, just find a store with somebody knowledgeable that can give you suggestions. I'd suggest trying as many different styles as you can to start with so you can figure out what you like, then go from there.
 
Had a Summer '08 YuleSmith I got in a trade. The nose was phenomenal, but it was a bit on the hot side and not as balanced as I would have liked. In retrospect I wish I had let it sit awhile longer. I was going for the whole "Christmas in July" thing, though.

LOCAL, it looks like you're in my neck of the woods. The Philly/Eastern PA/NJ area is blessed with some great breweries. Some good local choices that hit the spot this time of year are:

Victory Prima Pils (a true Czech Pilsner...nice, crisp and hoppy)
Troegs Sunshine Pils (similar, yet different)
Philadelphia Brewing Co. Rowhouse Red (a summer saison brewed with Rye)
Flying Fish Farmhouse Summer Ale (brewed right in your backyard...Cherry Hill!)
River Horse Hop Hazard Pale Ale (brewed up in Lambertville, NJ)
Stoudt's Gold (great for those that may be "squeamish" about craft beer)

These are just a few suggestions. I second Justin's call of finding someone knowledgeable in your area and getting suggestions. If you're ever in the DelCo area, let me know and I'll take you to some of our better distributors.
 
Last night: Mackeson XXX, Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA, and finished with a Guiness only because by the third beer it doesn't matter what beer it is.
