    For me it would have to be DFH 60 Minutes, Sam Adams Boston Lager, and SN's Torpedo.

    Cantillon anything, but it is not often found outside the bottle.

    Most beers; however, on cask, very few bottled beers match up. Just a thought.

    SN Torpedo, but that may be because I've only had it once on draft (which was fine) but quite a few out of the bottle. Also locally, DuClaw's Devil Milk to me tastes much better out of the bottle.

    Maybe it's just a coincidence but I've had enjoy by on tap twice and it just doesn't seem as good as in bottles.

    I recently found that I enjoy Torpedo in a bottle more than poured into a glass. Haven't had it on draft yet

    I pretty much always try to give a full review to a bottle vice tap; I don't trust many bars' ability to provide me a clean and proper glass. Plus, I can ensure proper temperature, setting, et al.

    That said, when served properly, I don't know if there are any beers that I specifically prefer out of the bottle (or can) vice tap. A great draught beer is pretty tough to beat.

    IMO most/all IPAs taste slightly more fruity/citrusy/floral out of the can or bottle, I'm guessing because of the narrow mouth concentrating aroma. The other difference being that there is much more carbonation drinking out of the can/bottle, as it hasn't been released (by pouring into a glass).

    I personally enjoy most drafts better than the bottle, cask even more-so.
