    Just curious what everyone's favorite Man Beverage is. Wonder if different regions have different preferences?

    Bud Light. Used to be regular Budweiser diesel, then I turned 30, and decided I better start watching my weight/calorie intake. I only try to drink Anheuser/Busch products, because that's where my hometown's barley all goes to. Our family farm provided barley for A/B and wheat for General Mills, so I'm loyal to them as much as possible.

    Being a Texas guy I generally drink Miller Lite...the Brewing Co. is just down the road in Ft Worth. I rotate between Miller Lite, Coors Light and if I'm feeling fancy I'll get some Shiner Bock.

    x2..... none of the above!

    Usually an IPA of some sort. Hop Devil is avail at the concert venue I visit.
    Also enjoy a good stout, especially in the winter time.

    Pa beer laws have finally changed for the better in the past year. I'll often get a 64 oz growler fill if I'm headed too an outdoor event.

    IPA here, but the "go to" is a Yueng, used to drive up to NC and bring it back, didn't have it in SC except for Myrtle Beach. I love Craft beer if any of you guys like a hard hitting easy drinking IPA "Trifecta" from Thomas Creek is the nectar of life!

    Dos equis Amber is my back up.

    I avoid light beer like the plaque, and if I'm broke it's Miller High life

    Yuengling is my go to, however I rarely buy the same brand 12 pack twice in a row. I like Sam Adams Boston lager real well too. I try a lot of crafts when I'm out, and hit up a few of the local micro breweries and enjoy sampling their stuff. But yuengling majority of the time, and when I want to be cheap High Life is my choice as well. True story, the first time I ever had high life, it was handed to me by Micheal Anthony (that Micheal Anthony, best known as the bass player for Van Halen) when I was against the stage at a Sammy Hagar concert. Liked the stuff ever since!

    Guinness, Amber Bock or when I'm out at a friends house its Budweiser. Or once and a while I'll do a black and tan with 50/50 of Guinness and Budweiser.

    My brother makes his own beer and when I go there its home made IPA or the latest samplers to try.

    What I don't like is Miller beer or beer that have a similar taste like Milwaukee's Best, Myster Brow or Goebels. But Miller light is much better than Bud light for some reason? I didn't care for the rye beer my brother made either and not a fan of wheat beer like Blue Moon.

    If I want to drink a light beer it would be Coors light, its good for making black and tans as well.

    Would like to try that Yuengling though, have never seen it here though but to be fair I haven't really looked for it ether. Is it more like Budweiser or Miller?

    But if I had to only pick one to be stranded on a desert island it would be Guinness, sorry it looks like I can't vote.

    Derek, Yuengling isn't really like bud or Miller. It's a darker Amber color, but still a smooth lager flavor. I too loves me some Guinness, and my "desert island beer" would be Guinness 250. Unfortunately it was made only for one year in celebration of the 250 year anniversary of Guinness signing the lease of their brewery, and they said the recipe would be destroyed and never reissued. It was an awesome libation too. :(

    I was drinking Bud Light for years, then Corona and Coors Light. After reading up that all the beer companys put GMO's in there beer. I got a six pack of Amstell XX Light , not too bad if it is ice cold just not as much flavor as other beers

    Lately my 'garage fridge beer' is Terrapin's Recreation-ale, brewed in Athens, Ga. Often in the back up role is Atlanta's Sweetwater 420. I do very much enjoy the samples my friends from Maine, Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana share from time to time!

    Is there a "none of the above choice?" All of the above are car wash.

    Grain Belt Premium in 16oz cans! Regionally we have Michelob Golden Draft Light which is my wife's choice.

    For craft beer I really like the Fargo Brewing Sodbuster Porter. We have about a dozen craft breweries in the Duluth area now and all have some really good beers!

    Smokey15 So old that I use AARP bolts.

    LaBatt, in cans, is what we buy as 'take to cookout, etc. beer. Easier to deal with cans. At home, it's Modelo, Corona, LaBatt bottles. Bud/Bud Light are our domestic preferences on tap.

    Sam Adams Boston Lager, for the most part. But I also enjoy Arrogant Bastard Ale by the Stone Brewing Co.
