Killian's Irish Red: The best. My favorite beer. It's strong enough to not be a pussy beer, but goes down nice and smooth, like a well-oiled woman. Besides, if there's one thing the Irish do right, it's beer.
(9/10)
Guinness (Draught and Stout): My second favorite, sticking with the Irish theme. It's strong and black, so not usually for novices or those who are just trying beer. Draught is usually better while Stout is for the thicker of drinkers. (7/10)
Corona: Trendy, trendy beer. When in doubt as to what people drink, they'll usually drink this. I don't like it because it's far too Americanized and really not that good, but it's light and weak and smooth, like a clean-shaven Maradon. A good choice for the novice. (5/10)
Samuel Adams: Slightly firmer than Corona, it's a nice step up for those who find Corona not enough. It's thicker and bolder, which makes for a nice guzzle. Still, it's good, but not great. (6/10)
Sam Adams' Cream Stout: Awful, disgusting, wretched. This is a highly misleading beer, as one is usually drawn in by both the Sam Adams' label and the notion of a creamy beer. It tastes like charcoal and goes down like it, too. The cream? Probably moose jism. (1/10)
Beer drinkers! Give me your reviews! Special and local brands are especially sought after.
.
And Sam Adams' Cherry Wheat wasn't too bad the last time I tried it. I wasn't impressed with the Summer Ale though.

Good Stuff! 9/10Warsteiner - Good Pilsner that is alot better than the American crap you find here (bud, miller, ect). 7/10
Stella Artois - One of the best beers ever made. One of best lagers to ever come out of Belgium. 9/10
Newcastle - A great brown ale that's great to hang out and sip on with your friends. 8/10
Kilkenny = Made at the guiness brewery, it's one of the smoothest beers I've ever had. A little creamy but extremely easy to drink. 8.5/10
Bavaria = A brazilian beer produced by Molson, it's my favourite food beer. It's got a way of taking on the flavour of whatever you're eating and accentuating it. Good beer as a single as well, but after two or three the taste wears on you. Also a little unsurptising on it's own. 6/10 or 8/10(food)
Alexander Kieth's India pale ale = one of the more celebrated canadian beers, it's easy to drink, but not by being bland, rather by being good. It's just a generally nice beer.
Smithwicks = a nice english beer that I enjoy. Great on it's own or as a blacksmith (guiness and smithwicks mixed). A black and tan is also good (guiness and bass)
I've also heard wonderful things about Sam Adams Tripplebock, and if anyone down in the states would like to try some and let me know how it is, I'd appreciate it.
No, Really. Bite me.

Newcastle is no good for me, It goes down way to easy 
, I end up ddrinking it like water.
Surpised Bass hasn't been listed here, quite similer to Killians and Sam Adams, I usally have some to make Black and Tan's with.

Personally I think that Shiner Bock is decent drinking. Guiness, much like the book, requires dedication to it's consumption. It's not a beer you just drop and grab another one, any thicker and they'd serve it with a fork and knife.And Sam Adams' Cherry Wheat wasn't too bad the last time I tried it. I wasn't impressed with the Summer Ale though.
Cherry Wheat is da shit 
... probably one of the only beers I'll actively drink.

Asahi - Japanese beer, one of the only beers I can drink and be pleased with the taste. Very nice 8/10
Tsingtao wasn't too bad while we're on the subject of asian beers. Kinda similar to drinking a Hieneken, but without the odd bitterness.

Sounds like you've got some drinking to do.
Boddingtons I quite like as well.
I've tried to like Guinness.. but I'm just not able to enjoy it.
I like the stuff the local microbrewery makes, they make seasonal ales and the like. All very tasty.
But.. mostly, I don't like beer.
Red Stripe: A little bitter, but so is every lager. Anyone can get used to drinking it, and you get to say "HORRAY BEER!" to all the hot chicks when they walk by. (6/10)
Rogue Dead Guy Ale: Another ale but not as bitter as it could be. This one happens to go down almost as smooth as a lager, but without all the heavy feeling and tongue coating. Great to drink with a meal, but I wouldn't want to pound them down for the whole night. (7/10)

But yeah, that's the best beer ever. Just don't drink more than 2 liters of it and expect to be able to move.
Oggi's Pizza - Torrey Pines I.P.A. ( India Pale Ale ) Medium in Color and Roughly 6% alcohol and extremly "Hopped up" this beer is pretty tasty but drinker beware, its smoothness will lull you into a false sense of security, be sure to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated if you are forced to prolonged drinking of this beverage 7/10
Carlsbad Pizza Port - SPA ( Special Pale Ale ) Most definately my favorite local brew. A generous amount of hops goes into the making of this delicious gift from the gods. Alcohol % ranges from 5 to 7 depending on which brewer gets his hand at making it, never have drank a bad batch and it remains to be one of the hardest local brews to obtain. 10/10
Solana Beach Pizza Port - Swami's I.P.A. ( India Pale Ale ) If you have never had a Highly Hopped Beer please do not start with this one. Alcohol ranges from 6 to 8% and it goes through a process where fresh hops are added to the wart throughout the brewing process. The finished product is extremly tasty but again it will seem obnoxiously bitter to a first timer. 9/10
Alpine Brewing Company - This brewer is like a hero of mine, He is a volunteer Fire Man who not only saved his own house during the recent "Firestorm" here, but was also able to save the homes of 3 of his neighbors nearby as well. He brews in his spare time and creates one of the smoothest highest alcohol beers I have ever had. His beer Pure Hoppiness runs near the 9 to 10% alcohol range and avoids tasting like your doing shots of Moonshine. Because of its high alcohol content I try and limit myself to never more then 1 or 2 pints of this ale, anymore then that, and well its curtains to sobriety. 8/10
There are many more I could go into but I lack the time and the fortitude to continue writing without drinking any of the beers I am listing. The local Pub I visit carries usually no less then 15 to 20 Micro-Brews, with roughly 50% of those being from Southern California. Its a Cheer's style enviroment, and we welcome any new comers who are brave enough to have their livers pickled with a few of these fine beers.
Cheers !
It's a Brazilian black beer, and my favorite beer currently.
It's a very dark flavoured beer, with a decidedly chocolaty taste to it, with very little after tase.

Come to think of it, pretty much every Czech beer I've had was pretty darn good. Which isn't surprising when you consider they invented the pilsner.
And Anheiser-Busch (the enemy of the people) should rot in hell. I want REAL Budweiser.
