    I love Fat Tire. I usually drink Red Stripe or Corona though.

    I mostly pair beer with food.

    BBQ-- Red Stripe
    TexMex--Corona
    Steak-- Sam Adams (Boston)

    Going out for the night-- Boddingtons, Guinness, Chimay (GR), Duvel, Lucifer and the almighty Black and Tan. (always in that order :p )

    Free is by far the best kind of beer, but when that isn't available you can't go wrong with:

    Smithwicks
    Sam Adams Black Lager
    Hobgoblin

    Heineken (love it and I don't care if that makes me a douche :) )
    Miller Lite (my wifes favorite, so the fridge is always stocked with it)
    Michelob Ultra (when I'm on Atkins)

    Remember college when you would just get the cheapest beer possible?

    Keystone Light (1.99 for a 6-pack)
    Natural Light (cheap but tastes like sand)
    Olympia Gold (2.99 for a 12-pack)

    You bought 6 packs in college? :D I think the smallest i every bought was an 18 pack, but a 30 pack of stones for 14 bucks was not bad deal. College was grand!

    To be fair, they were tall-boys and we used to chug them before marching band practice... :)

    If I had to pick a "favorite beer", it would probably be Bohemia. It's the one that I buy most often.

    Right now in my fridge, I have:
    Modela Especial
    Saint Arnold's Lawnmower
    The Blue Moon Spring Ale
    Miller Light

    I'm a dark beer guy. Although I had a Widmer last night, I think the lightest beer I normally drink is Negra Modelo.

    Other favorites:

    - Schneider Weisse - Aventinus
    - St. Peter's Cream Stout
    - Sam Smith's Taddy Porter
    - Sam Smith's Oatmeal Stout
    - Young's Double Chocolate Stout

    CORONA. Lime. Salt. ~~ MICHELADA. :cool:

    While in Boston I tasted a BULLET (no alcohol). It was GOOD.

    It's Tecate.

    Best ever (though no longer available in Texas, because the Belgians got angry at us drinking it all): Trappistes Rochefort 10

    Currently hooked on:
    North Coast's La Merle (saison/farmhouse ale--better than Provision, Hennepin, and the other Belgian one you can find, the one with the busy label artwork)
    Lagunitas Maximus (double IPA--very dry, but not like Dogfish Head 90 Minute)
    Tommyknocker Imperial Nut Brown Ale

    I'm forever on Dogfish Head Raison D'Etre and Urthel Tripel. By far the best tripel I've ever had. Who knew the Dutch could brew?

    I don't love beer, but if I had to drink on it would be Miller Lite too. I think women like it because it's kind of watery.

    I prefer Czech or Czech-inspired Pilsners, and also like the Kolsch category.

    But of course nothing beats a good Corona light GANGSTA STYLE, which of course means you drink the neck down on a Corona Light and refill the emptied part with Bacardi Limon. That will get you drunk up in da club in no time.

    Up here in the Hill Country, it's "tea-cat". Topped with lime salt (Twang).
