They make a good IPA and I believe they have a decent stout as well. Red Hook is another brewery that offers some variety, a good blonde ale in the summer and an ESB year-round. Using a pale ale for a black and tan???? Intriguing... Another good brand: Dogfish Head. They make a good IPA and I believe they have a decent stout as well.

Glad to see Magic Hat is represented here too (I know, I'm homer since Magic Hat is brewed in VT), but while I like most of Magic Hats brews, the #9 is most definitely their best. Some other good VT microbrews are Long Trail and Otter Creek, and if you ever find yourself in the Green Mountain state, order a Switchback, which can only be found on tap in VT. Anheuser-Busch has a Winter Bourbon Cask Ale that is quite good too, and widely distributed unlike some other bourbon beers that are nearly impossible to find. Another of my favorites is Honey Brown, yes an East Coast brewed beer but also widely available, from High Falls Brewing Company out of Rochester, NY. I agree that Sierra Nevada is a great beer.

Great alternative brews in the Midwest include Leinie's and any local microbrews. The ones I have found to be good in the West include Manny's, Mac and Jack's, and Henry Weinhard's.

Also, the myth of American Beers being lower quality or less alcohol than German or other European countries is quickly becoming a flat out myth. The micro-brew movement in this country has produced beers of far superior taste than you will ever find in Europe. Magic Hat #9 is phenomenal.

The Lite version is good too. I like it because it's usually about the same price as Bud/Miller but it's got so much more taste. :) My personal favorite now is Yuengling.
