I'm not really a beer guy.

More of a wine drinker at the moment, I will drink Guinness down the pub (feel a pint is better value for the money), and twenty quid on a few bottles of wine gets you more than twenty quid down the pub (Pubs may they RIP).

Though I do remember the sense of achievement working various pubs and restaurants keeping the Real Ales properly, a true art.

I should mention that although I'm from Denver and use the mascot of this brewery as my avatar, I'm not affiliated with it. No astroturfing here.

A real ale is more a living thing than your average keg product nowadays.

Though I am under no delusion they are all made in the equivalent of a chemical factory now.

Personally the best beer I ever had was a Scottish beer I got in a gift pack. Unfortunately I am not able to get any more. It was alba scots pine ale fantastic beer. I am currently beginning to delve into brewing my own. Using a kit in my house we will see how it turns out but I'm hopeful I have heard if you do it right it's way better than store bought.

It is. Oh, it is. Your first batch may be OK, but your 10th is great. Your 100th is... nirvana.

Shagbeard

I made my first batch of homebrew with MrBeer couple months ago. Normally I do not dig light ales like Bud but this was damn tasty. Probably because it was homebrew  8)

Want to try Brown Ale and Stout next.
The Shagbeard abides...
You can call me Shagbeard, or Shaggy, or Shag or Shaggybearder if your not into the whole shortness thing

This thread is sorely lacking in Belgian Beers.
My all time favorite is Papegaei, a small brewery from my hometown, I know the brewer, fantastic unpasteurised unfiltered 8% golden ale made with fresh local hops! Guy should be commended.
Other great ones you are more likely to come across are Duvel (Flemish slang for devil), Tripel Karmeliet, Westmalle Tripel, Chimey, Maredsous.
There's also Rochefort 10, it's like the beer version of Jagermeister, kicks in at over 11%, amazing flavour!
