So about 7 months ago I started working in a liquor store, and we sell the largest selection of beer in Calgary, about 900 varieties. I do drink a lot of them and want to try more but some are just soooo good that I keep drinking them. Not to mention all the wine I have to drink so I can tell customers what they are like too.

So I just want to know what your favourite beer(s) are, maybe why you like them and where they are from? Then I hope to see if I can get my hands on some of these goodies.

To prevent confusion I figure a bit of a format is best
Brewing company - Name of Beer - Location - any other notes

My top 3 are:
Rogue - Dead Guy Ale - Oregon - MMMMM, pure amber goodness in a bottle

Wells - Banana Bread Beer - Beer brewed with real banana's, if you have never had this try it!! Its like drinking banana bread, seriously delicious.

Stieglbrauerei - Stiegl Goldbrau - Austria - A highly drinkable beer thats just better than the standard labatt or molson and is my go to beer.

What does NS drink? But please no Labatt or Molson garbage.

My favorite beer for after a good day of skiing, Chasing Tail and Big Cottonwood are my favorite two. It goes down smooth and has so much taste.
