Wanted to start a fun little topic, what are your favorite beers?

Here are some that I really enjoy:

-Labatt 50(favorite)
-Labatt Blue
-Rickards White
-Bud Light Lime
-MGD
-Sol

There's a lot more, but those are some of my favorites.
 
I don't drink many fancy-shmancy beers.

Give me a:
Miller Lite
Labatt Blue
Pabst Blue Ribbon

and I'm a happy dude.
 
My starting five:
Pabst Blue Ribbon
Old Milwaukee
Colt 45
Olde English 800
Coqui 900
 
1. PBR (I've been drinking it well before the kids made it popular again)
2. High Life
3. Dogfish 90
4. Dogfish 60
5. Shock Top
6. Miller Lite
7. Sam Adams Summer
8. Blue Moon
 
1. Shiner Bock
2. Fat Tire
3. PBR (when money's tight)
4. Big Sky Moose Drool (would top the list, but hard to get in my part of the country)
5. Dos Equis Amber
6. Red Stripe
7. Chimay Blue
8. Bud Light (when money's tight and I can't get PBR)

Blue Moon is delicious, I've only had it a few times since I'm Canadian, but it goes down so smoothly.
 
1. Free
2. Free Lite

I remember this being said/written somewhere about sportswriters favorite beers, but I can't remember where.

Huggy's gonna love you!! :D

As for me, I'll take a Labatt Crystal pretty much every time. Yes, they still brew it. No, it's probably not available where you live.
 
Gotta agree with Flip and Expendable. However, if I were to a ranking system of a sort it'd go a lil like this:

Stella
Red Stripe
PBR
Miller Lite
 
1. Pacifico (I LOVE this beer)
2. Steinlager Pur (available only in New Zealand)
3. Labatt's Blue (overheard on my honeymoon by Mrs. Birdscribe... "This is beautiful. Budweiser and Coors are IMPORTS!")
4. Portland Honey Beer
5. Pilsner Urquell

What all these have in common is I can drink more than two and not get that full, bloated feeling that I started getting after I turned 35. Plus, all of them just taste good.

Unlike most of the planet, I HATE virtually all Belgian beers. Stella makes me gag and I had this beer, Sezoens, at my college pizza/beer hangout that was so disgusting, I poured it into a planter. The only Belgian beer that hasn't triggered my gag reflex is Duvel.

I miss living in Michigan where Oberon was everywhere. Oberon draft with a slice of orange, holy crap that's good. Nursing a Post Road Pumpkin Ale at the moment. Deee-licious. Props to the Brooklyn beers ... haven't had a bad one. Cheap stuff? The High Life reigns supreme. Plain ole Budweiser ain't bad either. Time for AA?
 
Obviously spoiled out here. Just about anything from New Belgium works.
