Not trying to bust your chops, but you must be an American "craft beer" enthusiast.
Lager gets one handle, IPA gets two, porters/stouts get two.

(I'll still play if I get a chance)

 

Heh, I thought it was funny that the #1 spot just said "Lager" as well.

 

Lager: Great Lakes Elliot Ness
Pale Ale: Blue Lobster Gold Claw
IPA: Tree House Julius
DIPA: Heady Topper
Porter: Hill Farmstead Everett
Sour: Cantillon Gueuze
Stout: Founders Breakfast Stout
Barelywine: Firestone Walker Sucaba
Seasonal: Samuel Adams Octoberfest
Specialty: Goose Island Bourbon County Coffee Stout

 

pick the top rated from each style list on here.

 

That's not fun though.

 

I'm going to redo this thread, but start with "Ale" as the first option, and then list a bunch of lager styles.

 

well every day its the top 10 of beers, I get tried of picking beer for folks I do not know...I know ignore the thread etc. just some days I wake up grumpy....

I'm gearing this towards stuff that I'd like to drink a few of in a sitting, being a tap list and all-

I would want at least half of the taps to be filled with homebrew.
Probably the pale, IPA, stout, Belgian/sour, seasonal and specialty.
Of the others, Lager would be something from Jack's Abby, Weihenstephaner or Schneider & Sohns.
DIPA- Would love Heady,
porter would be either Mayflower or Cape Cod Beer,
BW/scotch/ etc - unknown at this time.

This is only from my experience, so unfortunately most east coast beers are untappable. I could say HT of HF based on reputation, but since I have never had their beer I don't think that would be fair. Also, ideally I would have probably 3 taps dedicated to Lagers, but thats not how the game was set up.

Lager: Pilsner Urquell

Pale/Amber: Handtruck, Barley Browns

IPA: Blind Pig, Russian River

DIPA: Hop Venom, Boneyard

Porter: Mogli, Caldera

Farmhouse/Belgian style: 7, Upright

Stout: Speedway Stout, Alesmith

Strong Ale: Adam, Hair of the Dog

Seasonal: Fresh Hop Myrtle, Commons

Specialty: Altbier, Occidental

 

I'll try this with just widely available, year round beers (no Pliny, Heady, HF, FFF, etc.)

Pale Ale or Amber: MO
IPA: Hop Rod Rye
DIPA: Enjoy By
Porter: Smutty Robust Porter
