Belgian beer is the best beer on earth.

Sam Adams Seasonal. Can't beat it.

Never met a beer I didn't like...and the one's I really like:

Arrogant Bastard from Stone Brewing Company (may be limited dist., though)
Oberon
Sierra Nevada
Anchor Steam
Modelo Dark

Stone makes the best beer on the planet. Here's their site: http://www.stonebrew.com/

Another favorite is Short's. I just found a brew they're coming out with called Bananas and Blow - a Ween song! Every time I stop in their pub way up north in Michigan, they have Ween music playing. I get the sense that the owner is a big fan and the workers there just deal with it. Anyway, great beers but prolly not answering your original ask of good beers with wide distro. Still had to mention a beer named after a Ween song. http://www.shortsbrewing.com/brews.htm

Add in a slice of orange and you're good to go.

Harvest Moon is good, but I'm reserving complete judgment until I drink one during a crisp fall night.

You have good taste

But truly, you need to go to Bavaria to get the best beer ever. :cool:

(Although Czech and Belgian beers are pretty high up there too)

SENROCK

nobody has mentioned LAND SHARK????? That stuff is freakin GOOD!!!
Peroni is delicious as well. ESPECIALLY ice cold!

Newcastle Brown Ale my friends.....

Miller High Life blonds, if I'm feeling cheap.

My local pub doesn't have that many types of beer/lager on tap, so I usually go with either a Guinness or Becks Vier. If it's bottled I will go for Corona, Cusquena, Brahma, Sol - basically anything South American.

I'm not too picky though when it comes to beer, although I can't drink Kronenburg without getting a hideous head ache, and I tend to steer clear from Stella because it gives me savage hangovers.

I know it's wrong, but I'm also quite partial to the odd cheeky Budweiser! Ice cold on a summers day, I think it's quite refreshing. I think it might just be a nostalgia thing though cause I drank quite a lot of it in my early teens

San Miguel Beer or Red horse Beer....two best beers here.

My personal favorites:

Newcastle
Seadog Wheat Ale (either blueberry, peach, or apricot)
Lost Coast Raspberry Brown (if you like dark beers, seek this out)
Blue Moon (not so keen on their fall beer, tho)
Sam Adams Octoberfest and Cherry Wheat
Pete's Wicked Ale Strawberry Blonde

I could easily substitute Hoegaarden for water if the workplace didn't mind me bringing alcohol on site.

Of course you like it better, Blue Moon is a cheap (and rather tasteless) knockoff.

this is why when discussing beer you should never diss the Czechs and Belgians... those fuckers know their beers

Stella sucks.

If you want a real belgium beer, try anything from Cantillon.

I can assure you Stella is a real Belgian beer

Give me Leffe Blonde or 9, Duvel, Westmalle Triple, Chimay Blanche or Bleue , Ename Blonde...

I also like Jupiler, Bocker and Stella (which is really a regular beer here).

Foreign beers: Carlsberg, Starobrno, Staropramen, Zlatopramen, Velkopopovický Kozel. I also liked Labatt and some beers from microbrewers in NY.

I love beer.

So I'm getting stick of drinking Stella whenever I'm out. Any suggestions for some good beer? I'm more concerned about taste than whether or not it'll get me drunk (yes, strange I know).

try some local micro/craft brewers in your area that your bars/pubs support. You will usually get some favorful ales/lagers.
