too many to choose from. I roughly divide all beers into 3 categories:
1. complete crap. The worst of the worst. This accounts for maybe 10% of the beers that I've tried
2. 'meh.' Middle-of-the-road beers. These are beers that I can enjoy under the right circumstances, but are generally rather boring beers that I won't go out of my way to buy. This category is about 80% of the beers I've tried
3. Yummy. These are the rare beers that ALWAYS hit the spot. About 10%.
Maybe because it's local, but Allagash Black. I don't let myself have it very often though because it's far too drinkable for my palate and I always end up time traveling to the point the next day where I am apologizing to people.
Weihenstephaner Original Lager, hands down.
