I need to get my hands on anything by the Russian River Brewing Co. BevMo never has anything but I always see on the internet how they have a ton of extremely highly rated beers. Lost Coast Brewery (in Humboldt) is cool though. Great White is probably by favorite beer.
My stand by is anything Rogue Brewery makes, but when I relly want to splurge I go for "Skullsplitter" from the Orkney Brewery (or Pabst).
Favorite beer is a hard thing to pin down. It kind of comes and goes with the seasons. In the past, it's been Newcastle, Blue Moon (on tap with an orange, of course), Turbodog and Dead Guy. I can't say enough about Dechutes and Rogue breweries. Favorites include Dead Guy (previously mentioned) and Black Butte Porter. But really, my heart goes out to New Belgium. They consistently put out delicious beer that is always at the top of my list. If I had to pick five favorite beers, three of them would be 1554, Trippel and Springboard.
I'm a huge Rogue fan. I'm also a fan of Bridgeport IPA and most anything made by Deschutes. People here in CO brag about Fat Tire and I simply mock them haughtily.
Not sure about my favourite beer. I don't think I've tried enough yet to decide my all time favourite. This is my favourite "everyday" beer though.
