Sam Adams Boston Ale and Octoberfest at this time of year.
There's a friend of mine in Fitchburg who makes his own. His Summer Ale is absolutely perfect! I heard Angels sing as I quaffed one last Summer, it will haunt me until next Summer.

Great thread Jenn.
It is really tough for me to pick a favorite. I take forever to pick out something at the package store.
Whenever I can't decide, my go-to beer is a Bass Ale. I just can't go wrong with it.
But I'm not a snob either. I'll drink Budweiser anytime at friend's houses.

The one thing that I'm going to miss from Striperfest this year is Harpoon Octoberfest.
I wonder if Gansett will mind if I BMOB  |

I brew my own and there's nothing as good out there.
For storebought beers I like New Castle Nut Brown , Pilsner Urquelle , Sam Adams Boston Lager , Magic Hat Blind Faith. There is also a good Imperial stout out there but I forget the name , I know the bottle though.

Kind of feel like a lowlife with all those cool microbrews listed above, but give me an ice cold BudLight any day. |

Now why would you ruin a perfectly good Guinness by mixing it with anything else? |

That is why my version of a Black&Tan is in the right hand a Guinness and the left hand an ale or lager (Octoberfest works fine) and never the twain shall meet except after it is too late in the stomach! |

Head north regularly to hike or ski, and make a point of visiting the Tavern at the Woodstock Inn in No. Woodstock, NH. Good food and a micro-brewery. Try the Pig's Ear Brown Ale. Some local stores carry Woodstock brews.

In my opinion, Guinness isn't even the best beer brewed by the Guinness brewery. I'd take a Smithwick's first, then a Guinness. 
I'll be having a few beers tonight, but unfortunately the selection will be pretty poor where I'm going. |
