Inspired by this thread, list four beers that would make your Final Four. They don't have to be on that beer bracket.

(i.e. what are your four favorite beers)

Off the top of my head...

Rogue Dead Guy Ale
Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA
Boddington's (tap only)
Trout River Nitro IPA (tap only)

I don't know. I mentioned that I drank free Bud Select at a picnic last year and the monkeys reamed me for it.
I'm sure jackasses like SS would but who the hell cares what he thinks. If someone hands me a Budweiser and I have no easy alternatives I'll drink it happily. Those snobs who turn it down can enjoy their cloud of smug.

I have to back Westy up on the free. If there's beer and I feel like drinking I won't be turning down a bud light or miller lite. Also I can't find that Saranac Carmel Porter to try.

Magic Hat #9
Harpoon IPA
Long Trail Ale
Nutfield Old Man Ale

Not the best ones I've had, but my favorite readily available/grocery store beers:
Widmier's Hefeweisen
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
Guinness Draught
Fat Tire

As for tap, Boundary Bay Brewery's Oatmeal Stout (it'll get ya drunk) and Scotch Ale are pretty damn good. Mac n' Jacks African Amber is pretty good. Boddington's is all-right.

Impossible but just some I've had recently, not in any particular order
Kirin Grand Ale- big breweries can make great beers
James Squire Porter- Aussie micro, mother's milk this stuff
Diebels- German, found it in my local bottlo last year, very stoked.
Yona Yona Ale- Japanese micro that is both cheap and drinkable. Unpossible.
