I have always thought this question was a tough one. My standing answer has always been I think about beer like a parents thinks about their children, you love them all for different reasons.

However, I have been enjoying some of the great brew Sixpoint has been gracing the NYC beer market with, if you are ever in the area check them out. So to give an answer Sixpoint's Sweet Action has come as close to a favorite as I have ever had.

This is indeed a difficult question to answer... I think overall my favorite beer would have to be Troeg's Troegenator. To me, it's the perfect balance of a traditional doublebock and modern craft-brew.

My other favorite beer, and some may laugh, is Yuengling Lager. It's by no means a "great" beer but sometimes a beer holds a special meaning. For me, it was my first beer (going back to sips from my grandfather when I was a boy), a beer my family drinks, and a beer extremely common in my area.

Easy question.... Chimay is my favorite, but Blue Moon, which is available at most bars is very good too. If I have to drink light beer,(which I do lately, unfortunately) is definitely Corona Light.

I would have to say my favorite beer is Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat. Perfect any time of year.

I don't know that I have a favorite beer...but my top five list would include (in no particular order):
PBR (Draft not can or bottle)
Pete's Wicked Summer Ale
Franziskaner Hefe-Weisse Hell
Beamish Irish Red
Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest

Cheers!

I'm not much of a fan of the pale lagers. Thankfully there are over 71 different styles of beer out there. Recently I had a beer that knocked my socks off it was so good. Saison Dupont Vieille Provision brewed by Dupont Brasserie in Belgium is actually pretty easy to find and typically costs $7-9 for 750ml bottles. This is an incredibly refreshing beer that is perfect in summer. So much more flavorfull and enjoyable than any macro that I've ever had.
