Who all likes to enjoy craft beer? If so, what’s your favorite styles, beers and breweries?
I’m big into IPA’s double IPA’s and stouts. My top three beers are Heady Topper by Alchemist, CBS and KBS by Founders. Founders is probably my favorite overall brewery.
Btw, if anyone uses the Untapped app let me know as I’m always looking for folks to share beer experiences with

I love heady topper.
I love IPAs, Reds, ect. Not huge into stouts, except this one called Dragons Milk.
My go to, as lame as it sounds, is Harpoon IPA. Been drinking a lot of Hoptical Illusion by bluepoint, since moving to New England.

not huge into IPAs unless they're west coast style, but i do fancy craft brews, great divide out in denver may be my fave, theres a few local ones that are solid too, most notably capt lawrence. theres a spot near my house that specializes in underground local craft beers so i typically pick up something new ev time that sounds tasty and kidna go from there. gotten into gose's this way too.

Goose Island/312 is the only one I've ever cared enough to visit and that's only because it's close and someone took me on a microbrew tour once. I like a few my brother brought home over the summer when I visited and he was in from FLA still. I really don't understand the craft beer thing (or can't get into it). I'll take bourbon once in awhile when I don't have something better to get my rocks off, but otherwise I'd rather not be pissed and pissing on myself. I don't really enjoy the social end to it either, though. If I'm gonna drink I like liquor. That's me though. I also just never have found beer as satisfying as liquor...tastes included. I like beer at concerts or sports events though...concerts a lot. I almost associate the taste of beer with a concert and I think I have a weird mental thing where I only enjoy it the few times a yr (2-3 these years, literally) I go to a show and actually have a round of beers.... If I drink at home or at a bar, it just feels out of place with a touch of sad nostalgia. Drinking probably isn't good for me. Beside the fact I'm a walking seizure and being cut-off of xanax and put on neurontin, I think booze just makes me feel too shitty to get into now.

If you do something in a setting so often you’ll associate it. Like if you eat in your car all the time, you’ll get hungry driving. I am not much of a specially beer drinker. I prefer bud,carona, and the basic stuff.

I don't always drink beer, but when I do, it is usually a Belgian Ale.

I like to drink Stouts, Ales, and Porters. Some of my favorites are Ipswich Oatmeal Stout by Ipswich Ale Brewery, Plunderdome Pumpkin Maple Ale by Crooked Current Brewery, Milkstout by Crooked Current Brewery, Hustle by Tree House Brew, That’s What She Said by Tree House Brew.
Boston and Ri have some pretty awesome Breweries as far as touring them.

I prefer bud,carona, and the basic stuff. Oh yeah, good point--kinda like the whole coffee & cigarettes thing. Or phone/cigarettes...some people it's phone and coffee.... it varies. I never had the phone or cigarettes, but coffee is a nervous habit for me associated with being at work or just bored at home. It's weird but I guess I just drank a lot at shows or big events, outdoor fairs and the like so much I didn't realize I never really drank at parties as much. But in hindsight I didn't. At this point the only time I ever really drink enough to get drunk is when I'm at a show... or desperately drinking which I can't even really do unplanned anymore.

Oh and they only do cans on Wednesday’s. I love that place, but it brings out the most pretentious pricks. As said above, show up early. It gets packed. Huge lines and expect to see parking staff directing traffic.

there's a new local brewery called Storm Stayed that i've been intending to check out, about 15 mins from my house! it's a well named brand as apparently the term storm stayed is a colloquialism from around the area i'm from (southwestern ontario).
generally speaking i don't drink a lot of alcohol though.
