    Of course Gueuze and just about all the high end Belgians are going to be on top but coming back down to earth it's:
    IPAs
    Pilsners (good crisp, nippy, dry ones, none of that sweet malty crap)
    Imperial Stouts

    I'm in the mode where I'm trying nearly everything, so I don't really have specific favorites yet since I've mainly had 1 from each of these styles. Generally, I've liked everything I've tried to some extent but some clearly more than others.

    Had:
    Doppelbock (favorite)
    Eisbock (favorite)
    Scotch Ale (favorite)
    Lambic (favorite)
    Belgian Strong Dark (favorite)
    Kvass (favorite)
    Gruit/Ancient Ale (favorite)
    Gueuze (good)
    Kolsch (ok)
    Dunkelweizen (good)
    Flanders Red (blargh, but it was a Duchesse)
    Tripel (ok)

    Currently have (not counting other Scotch Ales or Doppelbocks):
    Belgian Strong Pale
    Dubbel
    Quad
    English Strong Ale
    Flanders Red (It's a Rodenbach Ale this time)
    Baltic Porter
    Imperial Stout
    Milk Stout
    Weizenbock

    I try to avoid anything that doesn't have brett in it. That limits me some.

    American wild ale
    gueuze / lambic / fruit lambic
    funky saison / grisette / bdg

    So far my favorites have been Dubbels, Tripels, Strong Dark Ales, and Quads. I also like Saisons and fruity IPAs, but have not had enough to have a definite judgement.
