For a common beer I would say Labatt's hands down, in fact I'm drinking one right now. For a less common beer I would say stella artious (not sure how to spell it)

Guinness on Tap please...if not, there is/was a really good micro brew place somewhere in norcal (where was that at) that did an Oatmeal Creme Stout.  Fantastic!

Yet another vote for Yuengling here.  Unfortunately, it's not sold in my area, so I drink it about once a year or so.  My favorite beer that's actually available locally would be Steel Rail EPA from Berkshire Brewing Company.

Haha, in the UK, and most of Europe, Stella Artois is as common as muck.

I can't choose just one - they're all good.  It's like asking who is your favorite supermodel?  Tough to pick just one.

Interesting comments and choices - especially about some of the 'green-bottled' choices.  I know a few home-brewers who will tell ya green bottles are terrible choices for bottling beer because the most destructive of light's wavelengths get through and can make the beer skunky relatively quickly.  I've found that to be pretty accurate.  Of the Stellas, Yuenlings, Heinekins, etc......I much prefer them draught versus from a green bottle.  Even out of a can is an improvement IMHO.

Cleveland, OH is home to a pretty credible micro-brewer called Great Lakes Brewing.  Their Elliot Ness brew is a great everyday choice, but their Christmas Ale (available only during the holiday season) is truly outstanding.

Awesome, I love tuatara. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuatara , not the beer: never tried it).  Obscure animals rock.

Best from a bottle was one of the trappist doubles.  Can't remember which.  Just remember it was in a class all it's own.  Best on tap, Uncle Billy's sampler here in Austin.  Pretty much any beer they brew, serve with the chopped beef sandwich.  Wheats and Shandies are also nice brews in Texas where it's almost always hot.

Someone else's review.... but pretty solid.  Just like the Bells Hopslam mentioned above, it's a seasonal, this one a late Spring, Summer offering.  If you see a sixer still around in the fall, get it.  It's the last one.

Currently having a love affair with Wisconsin beers

New Glarus Fat Squirrel, Leinenkugel red lager or creamy dark for dinners/ single beer for the evening.

Leinenkugel original for everything else: working in the garage, cutting grass, fishing, etc...

Since I live in Mississippi right now and can't get any of this local, once I run out of my mass stock of original I usually supplement with coors light until I can make another summer vacation run back up to WI.

    • While on vacation in Punta Cana a few weeks ago I played with rental clubs, Mizuno Pro 245's with KBS Tour Lite steel shafts. Surprisingly, I was blown away, not only by the distance, trajectory and dispersion I was getting but also about how soft and buttery they felt. It got me thinking.... IT'S TIME FOR NEW IRONS! Just yesterday, at my local Golf Galaxy, I tested them again side by side with the JPX Forged (recommended by the Mizuno rep who happened to be there) which also felt pretty good. Not as buttery soft as the 245's but they did produce slightly better numbers on off-center hits. Also, I haven't played with forged clubs with steel shafts in 10 years thinking I was getting too old and that I needed the lighter weight but these clubs with that shaft felt really, really good. So that's my long and drawn-out intro to my question: Does anyone here at TST play with either of these clubs and if so, what's your opinion?

    • By today’s standards that’s certainly true, but they weren’t having any trouble hitting golf balls in 2005 so I’ve equipped myself with what was among the very best equipment around that time for a very reasonable investment. If I get to the point where I feel like I’ve outgrown that stuff, I’ll reward myself with something more current. But for now I don’t need adjustable loft and lie and modern head shape, just a good quality, proven club with a clean club face. For now I’m going to concentrate on the basics. I know you can get more yardage with newer woods, but I don’t care about distance nearly as much as consistency, and you can’t buy that for any price.
