What BEER are you drinking?
Dos Equis
Skookum Brewery Nug Life IPA
Boneyard Beer Co. Damn! Special Bitter
Ballast Point, Mango Even Keel
Founder's Breakfast Stout
Menabrea Bionda.
Nice beer, although I feel like I'm cheating on Bavaria.
@shavez 
ps My thoughts were with you when when I heard Germany was out. 
Last night: St-Ambroise Double IPA. Loved it, but I'm still looking for that kind of flavour in 5-6% abv instead of 8%, if that's even possible. I don't know enough about the beer-making process to say.
Farmstrong Brewing Co. Cold Beer Pilsner
Fremont Lush IPA
Georgetown Brewing Bodhizafa IPA

Oh yeah, that was painful. Maybe that was what drove me to choose a non-German beer the other day, sub-consciously...
I hope all is well in TO. I miss the FWR and all the offlines!
Spent yesterday exploring the craft beer scene in Macon & Greensboro GA. Tasted some excellent brews with the highlights listed below.
Macon:
Ocmulgee Brewing - Coffee Maple Porter
Piedmont Brewing - Imperial Porter- aged for 12 months in rum barrels
Greensboro:
Oconee Brewing - Coffee Saison
I brewed a Julius clone and kegged it last weekend. First "real" pour after a week of force carbonating and I'm super happy with it. ABV clocked in at 6.7%
Revolution Bottom Up Wit.
305 Brewery Golden Ale
JDubs Brewing Co. Poolside Kolsch style
2001 Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ale
2004 Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ale

These were all outstanding. Still have some 2005 Bigfoot that I'm going to hold on to.
Founder's All Day IPA. Great Summer brew.

An outdoor music venue in my town sells the 19.2 oz. cans of these for $7 at events. Not my favorite IPA, but the price and live music help them go down nicely. 
Twin Peaks' dark ale - pretty good and very cold
Michelob Ultra Pure Gold - if you don't want carbs and calories, it's not a bad beer, but for a few more calories I'd take a Guinness any day.
21st amendment hell or high watermelon
Gulden draak
Trumer Pils - my favorite 6 pack in the fridge beer.
Random question anyone else seeing 7 pages of new post gibberish?
Fremont Brewing Head Full of Dynomite IPA
2016 Vermentino Tenuta Guado Al Tasso
Revolution Bottoms-Up Wit.
The entire forum is starting to feel like the NHL thread in November. 
Lindemans Cuvee Rene Oude Gueuze 2017 100% authentic lambic 6% vol
Rich dark golden colour, haze due to second fermentation the beer undergoes in the bottle, on the nose yeast, sea spray, leather and funk. The palate is dominated by the crisp and sharp lemon notes, tart, faint leather and some orange peels. Light bodied and crisp. Will age some bottles to explore how the taste changes.
Treehouse Hurricane
Boulder Beer - Shake Chocolate Porter this taste like chocolate as much as a legitimate beer can. Delicious.
Ice cold corona.
It's hot out there.
New Glarus Two Women lager. Clean, balanced and tasty.
Good People Brewing Coffee Oatmeal Stout
Deschutes Hopzeit Autumn IPA
pFriem Family Brewing Witbier
Skookum Brewery Pamplemousse Clouds IPA
Alaskan Brewing Cranberry Tart Pale Wheat Ale
Elysian Brewing -- The Great Pumpkin Imperial Pumpkin Ale
Weihenstephaner Korbinian. Random purchase and a really nice doppelbock.
10 Barrel Brewing Co. --Fukton (Fresh Hop) Pale Ale
Terrapin Brewing did a reboot of their long discontinued Gamma Ray ale. While the new version has much of the same flavors as the original, the body feels much thinner and coming out of a can now its got a bit of a tinny aftertaste.
Alvarado Street "Contains No Juice" hazy juicy IPA. Damn good NE style IPA.
hite beer
Better Half from Founders Brewing. This is truly a special beer. Strong bourbon & vanilla flavors in very heavily malted brew.
