Summit Great Northern Porter is a good version of Guinness. A Shandy Gaff is surprisingly good too, it is Sprite under Guinness which sits on top of it like oil and water. Love the Coors light, but if I had to choose one it would be Boulevard Wheat or Goose Island 312.

Wow, a battle over water flavored beers...I wonder who will win...wait, I don't care. Fat Tire RULES!!
Ok, so has anyone else tried the apricot ales? Is it just me or do they smell like strippers? I love it!
Ha ha, you almost made my pepsi fly out my nose. Where do you find apricot ales? Can you get them in a store?
Yeah, anyplace that has a large selection, Summit has a good one. Sometimes I just like to open one, sit it under my nose lay back, close my eyes and imagine...
If you like Guiness, try Murphy's stout. I like it better than Guiness, but some don't.
If you like stouts, try Fort Collins Brewery Chocolate Stout. Very good, available at HyVee. Also makes a nice addition to cook into chili.
Five pages of discussion and not ONE person mentions Shiner Bock. Phenomenal, smooth dark beer that doesn't taste like dark beer.
I'm not a fan of the macrobrews. I was a liquor guy for a long, long time and Shiner is what turned me.
As a Wisconsinite, I think I'm somehow morally obligated to like Leinies. My family is from Chip. Falls, I toured the Leinenkugels brewery when I was about 5. Sunset Wheat is great (The day I found out Sherlock's in H-town was getting it on tap was a wonderful day for me). I'm also a fan of the Summer Shandy and the Apple Spice (try it heated around Christmastime - it sounds terrible but is actually really good). Not so much a fan of Honey/Berry, and I'm going to try my first Oktoberfest later tonight.

Goose Island Honker's Ale is a bitter beer that is very smooth.
6 packs stocked at Hy-Vee, try it out!

Summer Shandy is one of my new favorites... I wish I would have stocked up before they pulled it for the season...
i can't see why Bud Select would be considered embarrasing for a male to drink. it has a very solid taste - unlike Bud Light, Miller Light, or Coors Light. At least it isn't Mich Ultra
Michelob Ultra still has more taste than bud light. The funny thing is, it has more calories than miller lite, but has no flavor.
Miller Lite is the best beer for things like tailgating and parties. It is good and still has a beer taste to it. Heineken is the way to go for a one or two beer night.
Sam Smith's Nut Brown Ale ... fantastic, but $8 to $10 for a four pack is a little high.
Mississippi Mud in the crock-bottle is also good.
The usually though is Shiner 98 Bavarian Style Amber, Shiner, or Shiner Light.

ugh.. that stuff was nasty... hy vee was sellin their kegs of it for cheap for awhile.
Yeah, but you have to pay $800 shipping and handling to an address in the Ukraine. Good deal.
