I don't have a particular favorite brand, but in style I prefer fuller tasting lagers and ruddy to pale ales. I like to sample smaller kraft brewers' wares, and fresher is always better. Stone brewery in San Diego County puts out some great ones; I'm partial to the I.P.A. Of the larger brewers, Sam Adams is a reliable fallback when nothing more intriquing is available, and I agree with Deno, Yuengling lager is surprisingly good for an everyday beer, especially for the price.

I like malt liquor JELL-O shots. I make it them with SCHLITZ or KING COBRA.
And if I have a nightcap with a guy that I like...I add a smidgeon of EVERCLEAR and give the guy a turkey and cheese sandwich for the ten count. :biggrin1:

I was going to post here to name exactly the same two brews. Some years ago, a friend of mine introduced me to Boddington's. Thereafter, I started trying all the British ales that are available in this country. Eventually, I decided that none of the cream ales pleased me as well as Boddington's (though Tetley's, which is very similar in taste, comes close). Then I tried Guinness, and recently it has moved ahead of Boddington's in my preferences.
Among the American beers that I have tried, I have liked Sam Adams the best. I don't have much use for pale ales and all those over-hopped brews.

I actually don't care much for creamflow ales - something about the nitrogen proces renders the flavours too bland to my tastes.
Cask's where it's at for me. One of the delights of going to a country pub in the UK is the voyage of discovery of trying a new one. I'll settle on a Timothy Taylor landlord or a Hopback Summer Lightning if available.
I tend to visit brewpubs if I'm in the USA - the craft brewing scene seems to be thriving and again I'll take a sampler tray and generally find something I like.
German weizens are a favourite of mine and German lagers taste like lager should. Belgian trippels etc if I'm in the area are good.
And if you ever get the chance to try unpasteurised Pilseners (only available in Plzen itself as far as I know) do it - they're awesome.
- sdbg,
I went to Stone Brewery. It was a good time. The I.P.A. is very good. I like their Arrogant Bastard Ale the best. Generally, red ales are my favorite. I even bought an Arrogant Bastard long sleeve jersey for cycling in the cooler months. Otherwise, Red Nectar is probably my all-around favorite.
