I've had a lot of beers from local breweries in the US and Canada(mostly BC).. but I just don't care enough about drinking nice expensive beer. Budweiser has been seeing a lot of fridge time recently.
I like cheap beer too! Natural Light is my favorite cheapo beer.
Kirin Ichiban is a good dry beer. One of my favorites of the Asian beers we can get over here. Literally, Kirin Ichiban means "Giraffe Number One." Well, that's what I tell people at least.. Kirin is actually a chimera creature, but Kirin also means "giraffe" ... haha

It's a chocolate granola bar."

My favorite types of beer are Bavarian marzens and double bocks. My preferred brands are Spaten, Paulaner, and Ayinger.

I like the cereal side of beer but I don't like hops. I know, I suppose that's kind of like a wine drinker that doesn't like grapes, but there it is, you asked. Another american weak beer fan.

Not to sound like a snob, but I am relatively surprised at the number of cigar aficionados, people who usually have developed palettes, that like tasteless light beer. Oh well, to each his own.
I am a fan of most of the Bell's Beer line. I really enjoy Boulevard, and similar wheat brews. Blue Moon is one of the few lighter beers that I CHOOSE, but Full Moon, the Blue Moon Winter Seasonal is delicious.

Guilty. There's a Samuel Adams TV ad that says "don't be afraid of taste." I'm not afraid of taste, I just don't like their taste. So sue me, you beer snob.

I don't have a favorite type of beer. I enjoy many different ones, just as I enjoy many different cigars. That being said, I love most of the stuff put out by Southampton Ales and Lagers, Sam Adams, Harpoon, and Stone.
