    Booooooo! :confused: If not for SA and their marketing in the 80s and 90s, my guess is a lot of craft breweries wouldn't even be in existence...where's the love?

    I don't necessarily care about style, if it's good, it's good.

    Bottom:
    Here's where I care about style - Anything with lager or pilsner in the name.
    After the mastering of the pale ale, I'm just not sure why these styles even exist anymore.
    What really gets me are the "hoppy lager" styles or "imperial pilsner".
    Oh, and smoked beers also suck, for the third option.

    Have you ever had a really good, fresh German Pils? Or Pivo or Prima Pils?

    Tripel- not that I don't like them, they're usually just a quick headache, so I tend to avoid them
    Red Ales- I typically find most to be metallic tasting, even the ones I like.
    Witbier- I find most of them taste the same, not much variation

    Top:
    English style barleywines
    German bocks/Belgian dubbels...it's a tossup

    Bottom:
    Adjunct lagers
    "Session" IPAs (esp those over 4.2% abv or so)
    Cream ale (have only had one good one and it still seems pretty much like a better AAL). Would rather have iced tea typically.
