St. Arnold's: Texans swear by it, I find it passable. To my bladder, that is. The darker stuff is great, but Lawnmower is too light for my dark-loving palate.

Shiner Black: Wins the award for best vehicle to attain cirrhosis 2009. I like it.

Boycott Shock Top Ale: It's actually made my Anheiser-Busch.

It steams me when the big brewers try to pass off a beer as the product of a tiny little brewery, when in fact it is the product of enormous corporations and millions of $$$ in focus groups.

I brewed recently a dark beer that is taking months to mature. I can't stand the wait. I over did it with the molasses and honey, so it's all my fault.

Shiner's "Family Reunion" six-pack is the greatest! Six different brews, all excellent.

Try St. Arnold’s Winter Stout, or Christmas Ale.

Also - they have a one-time brew called “Divine Reserve” - version 8 came out today (I can’t find it anywhere, after 3 stores and many phone calls).

St. A’s also did a “Whiskey Cask” two Christmas’ ago that was FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC.

For reference, I drink Abbey-style Trippel’s (Brother David’s from California (yeah I know) is really good stuff at around $6.00 a 22 oz), or Quadruppel’s; Guinness (the 250 is too light for my taste), Smithwick’s, Belhaven, etc.
