    1. Anything interesting and unusual
    2. When a big unwind is needed, anything imperial, double, trippel, quad, or bourbon barrel aged.
    3. Lunch and business meetings - anything sessionable
    4. To hydrate on a bike ride - euro lagers, pilsners, ales
    5. to sit in the shade and read a book with - Belgian sours, Berliner Weiss, Gose
    6. for breakfast - Hefe Weizens

    During my heavy sampling time (football season), I usually have at least one of each of the following in my fridge at all times

    -IPA
    -Double IPA
    -Gose
    - Berlinner/other sour
    - a few other odds and ends

    Right now, for example:

    Clown Shoes: Space Cake and The Peace that Money Can't Buy
    Lagunitas: Brown Shugga', Sucks, and Maximus
    Rising Tide: Calcutta Cutter
    Night Shift: Mainer Weisse
    Enlightenment: Lord Mantis
    Anderson Valley: Kimmy Gose
    Victory: Hop Ranch and DirtWolf

    All the IPA varieties, and then everything else. In the past month, I rated a beer from ~15 styles, and that seems typical. So many other styles that seem part of my regular rotation that I haven't had this month because I do spend a majority of my time sober ;-p

    Variety, spice of life, and so on.

    Right now, it's been more stouts than anything else, but the most recent have been Kimmie/Yink/Holy Gose, NG Moon Man, BCBS, and the odd Belgian.

    I voted 4-6, but it may be more than that. IPAs, Stouts, Hefeweizens and Scotch Ales on the regular but I've started throwing in a lot more Gose (thanks to AVB Blood Orange) and Flanders Red/Oud Bruins as of late and I'm still probably forgetting something.

    Ive been in a bit of a stout and porter rut for like 5 months now. I don't remember the last time I left the liquor store without a sixes of Founders Porter.

    I'm not sure what constitutes "on a regular basis" but in any given week I'm likely to have the following at least once:
    APAs
    Saisons
    American IPAs
    Hefeweizens

    If we expand "on a regular basis" to include beers I'm likely to have at least a few times per month add:
    Belgian Pale Ales
    Doppelbocks
    IIPAs
    Brown Ales (both English & American)
    Stouts and Imperial Stouts
    maybe Rye Beers (limited by inconsistent easy access)
    maybe Flemish Reds (lame local distribution of both Rodenbach and Cuvee des Jacobins is the limiting factor)

    Regularly I think 4-6:

    1. APA
    2. IPA/DIPA
    3. Lager
    4. Pilsner
    5. Gose <-- new addition to my "75% chance this is in the fridge at any given time" style list

    Porters and Stouts are pretty common too but I only really drink them with regularity from roughly Sept-March, so I won't count them.

    I'm a hop head, period, so it just depends on whether we're separating IPA from DIPA. Personally, I'd lump them together, so it's one "style." I can certainly enjoy and appreciate several other styles, but I don't drink them "regularly" because, ultimately, I'd always prefer something with MASSIVE HOPS.

    Did I mention I love hops?
