I'm always about keeping a variety around. For beers produced within my own country (USA), I like the products of Sam Adams (Boston Lager, Winter Lager, Summer Ale, and some of the other winter seasonals), Dogfish Head (Midas Touch, ##-minute IPAs), Wachusett (country ale, blueberry ale, "monsta" double IPA), Gritty McDuff's, Yuengling, and Oskar Blues (Old Chub). Import choices include any Irish stout (Guinness, Murphy's, Beamish), McEwan's Scotch ale, Bass IPA, Newcastle Brown, and Lindeman's framboise and kriek lambics.

Petrus Dubble Bruin from Pittsburgh's best bar: http://sharpedgebeer.com/BeerEmporium_taps.htm

I've been to Sharp Edge (Peters) but haven't tried Petrus. Thanks for the tip... anything to make sense of that sprawling-list-of-international-beers they call a menu helps!

Fat Tire is good and New Belgium is a very interesting brewery because of their environmental efforts. http://www.newbelgium.com/sustainability2.php Hacking beer is fun, but I'm not sure what the best hacker beer would be...

Free Beer, perhaps. http://freebeer.org/blog/faq/
