A compendium of beers that be good, from off the top of my head.

  1. Anything from Anchor Brewing, especially their ported
  2. North Coast Brewing – The Old Rasputin is sometimes good.  The prankster is always satisfying.  The Red Seal is a little too bitter for my taste, but passable.
  3. Rasberry lambics are usually good.
  4. Delirium Tremens – awesome and gnarly
  5. Fish Tale IPA
  6. Bridgeport
  7. Eel River porter

Beers I’d drink if the store with all the good beer was closed

  1. New Belgium Brewing – about anything from these guys
  2. Delirium Nocturnum – good, but too sweet for my taste
  3. Moose drool – it’s just cool
  4. Fish Tale Brown or Pale

Beers that suck

  1. Budweiser(aka canned beer) – lame, thin, flavorless
  2. Modelo – see Budweiser

Beers that I fear

  1. Anything from mexico, or marginal euroasian breweries. If you can’t drink the water, don’t drink the beer.

Beers I don’t understand

  1. Celebrator(the one with the goat) – Darn tasty the first time I tried it.  Sickeningly sweet the second time.  Drink in cold weather, or over ice cream I guess.
