For me, domestic is better than imported, and micro-brew is better than big brewers.  I'm partial to Granville Island Pale Ale

Corona Extra with an obligatory slice of lime.

Had Kokanee once. It was...unpleasant to state the least.

Hard to pick one favorite beer. I guess my favorite of the beers I can find easily in a store would be Okanagan Spring Brewmaster's Black Lager. I'm also very fond of Pacifico, though I'm also used to paying the equivalent of about a buck fifty for it - needless to say it's not a buck fifty up here. :)

Draft beers... hmm. Maybe Crannog's Backhand of God stout.

As for beers I like, well, that's a very long list, and I'm trying new stuff all the time thanks to Alibi Room.

Whatever is in my hand :P

But seriously, it really depends on my mood. As far as pick-up LBC ales and lagers, I'd have to go with Philips Hop Circle, Tree Cutthroat Pale, and Howe Sound Lager. But for something a little more special, I love Laguntinas Maxximus, Anchor Porter, Old Rasputin Imperial Stout, Orval, Central City Red Racer IPA, Unibroue's Maudite or Fin du Monde... really the list goes on. I try to buy a few new beers I have never tried every few weeks.

Not a big fan of domestic beer so me and my dad pitch in to get our own special brew made at the distillery by my house.
I've always been told to never look a life behind a window to go outside and join the world, but what about the world behind that window makes the outside so much better?

How did I miss this thread? My favourite, anytime beer is Steamwhistle from Toronto. There's quite a few craft beers out there I like, but unless it's something really special, I find I can make beers more interesting than a lot of the Craft beers out there that only exist for the sake of being craft beers.
If you're looking for interesting beers to try, I could offer you a few suggestions. Also, I just got a job in a specialty wine and beer store, so I can keep people abreast of new, sometimes rare stuff.

THIS! I saw a six of these in Alberta and neglected to buy it at the time and haven't seen it in any stores since.



This stuff is also pretty good

Recently discovered a kiwi beer called "Epic hop zombie" Which was pretty damn amazing. And the label glows in that dark, so yea... Otherwise Phillips all the way.
No silicone heaven? Then where would all the calculators go?

If you enjoy banana bread and the taste of a good beer, you must try this!



It really does taste like you are drinking banana bread.... so good..

I'd try that. I've had chai beer and salted caramel beer and jasmine beer, among others, so what the hell.
