1554 is a great beer. I tend to drink it in the fall. Fat tire is a great 'what to keep around for casual drinking' beer.

I'm still recovering from Portsmouth Brewery's Kate the Great Stout. Awesome beer release day. Had a few friends come up with me to get as many bombers as possible. Sadly, even though we got there at 7, there were no more bottles for sale. Luckily we got it on tap. I started with a Bigfoot barleywine from Sierra Nevada. Not the best beer for 11:30 in the morning, but yesterday was the exeption. If anyone has had this beer, you know it is up there with the Dark Lord, Old Rasputin and Stone's RIS. If you guys do any trading try to get one. This years brew was a little sweeter but I'd imagine it'll be perfect in 2 years.
Currently enjoying a Woodstock Inn Brewery Pemi Pale Ale. My girlfriend was kind enough to give me a membership to a "beer of the month club" deal for Christmas and this is one of four brews that was included in the last shipment.
The last beer I purchased for myself was the sixer of Full Sail Amber Ale on the way home while at the store.
Hooray for drinking problems!
One of my all time favorite beers is Sam Smith's Oatmeal Stout. Yum.
There is a new specialty beer store that opened a couple of miles from my house. I tried some of this Piraat Ale from Belgium. Pretty good stuff. It's got some kick with 10.5% ABV

If you havent tried a Michigan brew, youre missing out on some real good beers.
We recently played a Saturday gig at Liberty Street Brewery in Plymouth and I drank their Barbers Garden IPA. Great taste, aroma, body, color, etc. They say the hops were grown next door at the barber shop, hence the name.
New Holland Brewerys Mad Hatter IPA is my favorite with Bells Two Hearted coming in second. NHBs Sundog is very good, too. I also have real Canadian beer from Canada (Labatts Blue, Molson Canadian, others), not that imported ah, stuff.
If I was in Germany right now, I could be enjoying their beers at work, but I guess I'll have to wait till I get home.
words cannot express my jealousy
anyway as for me. Trois Mousquetaires Baltic Porter
