Your top 5 favorite beers?

Not my top rated, but my all-time favorites because I love them and they were good to me.

Avery Uncle Jacob's Stout - it's got my name! (besides the Stout part) and it makes my jaw drop every time.
St. Bernardus 12 - cause I love me some quad and this is the best.
Green Flash IPA - first IPA that made me like IPAs.
Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout - pretty much a perfect, perfect beer, tailor-made for my taste buds.
Yuengling - because it raised me, taught me how to drink, made me the man/beer geek I am today, and there is no better cheap, ubiquitous, easy-drinker that better brings me back to my glory days with every sniff and makes me happy.
