    Wheats and Barleywines I'll pass on.

    Not a huge stout/porter fan. I find many of them have notes of coffee and I'm not a coffee fan at all.

    Pumkin beers
    Cranberry beers
    Raspberry beers
    Blueberry beers

    That's about it. Other than fruit beers, I like petty much everything, or at least one example of it.

    Rauchbiers far and away #1...cannot even drink them. After that it would be sours of any kind (sour stouts are tragic to me), black IPAs, and oyster stouts. I don't even consider adjuncts because why bother drinking beer if thats what you want?

    Wheatwines, just about all English style beers, most wheats, and of course the ubiquitous Adjunct Lagers, though one or two every now and then isnt bad.

    I'm surprised no one has said barrel aged ipa's yet. But yea, barrel aging the hops out of my favorite kind of beer pretty much ruins it for me...

    Most amber lagers and AALs. They're usually just too sweet with not enough flavor payoff.

    Witbiers. I do quite like like other wheat styles like dunkelweizen and hefewizen though.

    I don't think I've ever had a smoked beer I would buy again.

    Coffee beers in general, of course I don't like coffee so that explains it.

    I guess it's the same logic as somebody not liking roller coasters despite never being on one (I was one of those people for a while). I'll pop my barleywine cherry soon enough and will judge upon first sip.

    smoked porters/stouts

    Oddly enough I liked the one smoked IPA I had a lot.

    I hate quads.

    Smoked beers just don't work for me. Barleywines are too boozy for me as well, although North Coast's Old Ale was very good (the line between Old Ale/Barleywine is blurred to some degree).

    Agree... Mad Elf = Robitussin

    Also agree with Pumpkin Ales. A few I've tried are decent, but most are just so/so or not good. I don't understand the enormous effort by every brewer in the world to put this style out each August (well for 2013 anyway...July in 2014).
