    All of them. I never had a beer from Weihenstephaner that wasn't world class!

    Considering 90% of my drinking is of non-American beers, primarily because despite our proximity to the States, very little American beer is sold here, I have a pretty extensive list. Canadian brewers alone that would make my list: Bellwoods, Great Lakes, Driftwood, Four Winds, Le Castor, Dieu de Ciel. Also, Westmalle, Orval, Rochefort, loons, 3F, etc.

    Aventinus is easy to find and remains as a truly under-appreciated beer despite very good ratings. If I had to just have one beer from now on, I would find a way to meld my day around small glasses here and there and live with this Bavarian beauty. It has fine qualities beyond what beer usually allows.

    Another vote for Ayinger Celebrator. Just wonderful stuff. I need a new four pack for the fall/winter.

    Trappist Rochefort 10 is amazing, I also enjoy a few Samuel Smith's beers as well. When it comes to imports, I confess that my range is limited and I need to explore more of the classic imports.

    So many beers... So few slots available.

    Rochefort 10
    Weihenstephaner hefeweiss
    St. Bernardus ABT 12
    Rodenbach Grand Cru
    Schneider-weisse Aventinus

    Although so many others could be on this list.

    Cuvee Van Der Keizer Blauw
    De Struise Pannepot - Old Monk's Ale

    All world class

    While there is a plethora of craft beer readily available to Americans, I encourage you to travel and have your brains melted by some beers in Belgium

    Readily available, Weihenstephaner. Less readily available, Cantillon.

    I saw your post before it was deleted (w?t?f?). I see what you were getting at. I imagine my 'like' (of it) was revoked, too!
