Gotta admit, when I was in New Orleans, I tried Abita and it was very, very good.
Yuengling black & tan is outstanding also.
I like most beers, but am partial to Fat Tire, Sierra Nevada, and Red Hook IPA.
I picked up some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale this weekend and loved it. Nice call Bro!

I prefer German pilsners (surprise!), like Wernesgrüner or Radeberger.
Ahh, the taste of my childhood...

Everyday brew? Ballantine Ale ("Flavor, Body, Purity"), but I'll admit it does not seem as flavorful as it did twenty years ago, but that might be me and not it.
Others? I'm not that adventurous (read: "not profligate with money on hyper-pricey boutique brews"), but find products from Saranac and Sam Adams quite OK--not every flavor, as some are ghastly fruit-infused ones, I being fairly much an IPA fan. We have a satisfactory local brewer called "Blue Point."
As to Yeungling, well, I recently tried their "Black and Tan" and found it thin and flavorless.
The widespread popularity of things like Budweiser and "light" incarnations of anything amazes me. There is something wrong with the taste buds of much of the country. What's that they call these "beers"... "wet air" isn't it?

Usually stick to the basics....bud light or coors light. Enjoy a good corona in the summer every now and then too.
Need to try others though. Always intend to when i'm at the store but I can never decide what to get.

I live here in Seattle in one of the best craft brewery sectors of the entire country. I just returned home from the Oregon Brew Fest in Portland, OR - one of the biggest and best craft brewery celebrations around.
The Yakima Valley/Cascade region provides 30% of the worlds hops (used all over the world - in breweries near and far!) So I couldn't taste fresher beer on a daily basis.
So I drink ONLY craft local microbrews - none of that B.S mass produced light beer stuff (ahh college) that are completely stripped of nutritional and all flavor qualities! (yes, nutritional)
Check out Oregon Brew Fest if you are ever in the area. Always the last weekend of JULY!

Very fussy about beers - nothing too hoppy (I don't like that bitter taste). My current faves are Wachusett blueberry (Wachusett a a local microbrewery out of Westminster, MA), and Sam Adams Summer Ale (which is a still a bit bitter but has a hint of lemon in it, so that's forgivable).
I don't do stouts (waaay too strong and heavy IMO).

I was at Brewfest, and I'd posted in the members section that I was hoping to catch up with other sly brethren while I was there. I was there Friday afternoon.
