    No matter how hard someone may try to convince you. No matter the beer from a said brewery will ever convince you they're any good.

    I'll start. Hate Kona. Everything they make is generic. And their beer is just downright spit.

    Who is it for you that you just can't stand?

    Sam Adams, they taste general in flavor and a majority of beers I've had from them taste 80% the same

    Goose Island's regular lineup (312, IPA, Honkers, etc.) and that has been my opinion since wayyyyy before the buyout. The Sisters and Bourbon County stuff, though? Yummmmm.

    Tired Hands. I've had one or two milkshakes that I liked, but nothing I've loved. Lots of their IPA cans have diacetyl, and most just don't taste very good. Will never understand why people line up for all of their releases.

    Although I have plenty of disdain for many breweries I'll take the high road and keep my opinions to myself... although I am eager to hear more!!! :wink:

    I'll stay away from CBA and The High End, as they're too easy. My vote goes to Funky Buddha. Cycle is a pretty close second.

    All 60 of them? Hmmm. Granted those lighter wheat stuff, not for me. Here In Boston we get some one offs. Rebel raw, chocolate bock, cream stout, some of those cellar series? Octoberfest? Maybe traditional German styles are not your thing.

    Ugh... Can't stand Goose Island. Don't knot if generic or if just really or if just awful brewing. I kinda consider them the Budweiser of "craft brewing".

    Yeah, not keen on Kona.

    Accross the pond it's Harvey's. Their most lauded beers, Mild & Sussex Bitter, do nothing for me.

    I was just being a dick, but "Rouge" hits me in the same place that "Belgium beer" does.

    Captain Lawrence. Best beer I've had was the grapefruit effortless. Everything else is "ehh" or worse.
