I'm not trying to sound like a beer snob, but it's sad what most people are drinking these days. Though I personally like stella, especially as a night out or drink-a-lot kind of beer, whenever I go to the store I buy microbrew. (Unless I'm broke.... then all bets are off!) IMO it's totally worth it to shell out an extra couple bucks for a six-pack of wonderful elixir as opposed to one of vaguely flavored piss. Here in the NE USA we also have a big microbrew scene like that in the NW, and hands down all my favorite beers (Definitely can't pick one or four, I'm a connossieur <sp> and have tried too many to count) are from regional microbrews... except for a couple bavarian/german and french imports.
Oh for the guy talking about Rogue, I do like their shit, though over here a deuce deuce is ~5$... a rare treat. Ever had the Old crustacean ale? I just had one at my friend's house, it was the most curious flavor/texture Ever! I can't say it goes in my favorites but goddamn was that one flavor-filled beer! Plus it was so thick you could probably live on it for a month.....
