Speaking of good Pales some regional distribution of Mike Duggan's #9 would be great. I can't get enough of that one on regular draught, excellent.

Not a beer, but Harpoon Cider would be pretty awesome.

Brooklyner-Schneider Hopfen Weisse
would be way more interesting in my book! (Or even the quite delicious Schneider-Brooklyner Hopfen Weisse)

But I doubt Brooklyn have a problem selling the limited amount stateside. LCBO won't deal with fighting for a few pallets I imagine. Thank God we have BCS.

I stick to mine, as I thought that hopfen weisse was overhopped and it hurt the delicate wheat beer... completely not my taste. The Weisse though, is a refreshing, balanced, fruity delight. To each his own I guess.

Lots of Brooklyn beers would be a good seasonnal. Just bought a 24 of the BBCS tonight, could of went for a 24 of Monster also :)

Oskar Blues Dale's Pale Ale...not a radical beer, but highly enjoyable.

If we're talking beers I would purchase regularly then I'd say Surly Furious. Red Racer would be a very close second.

At first I was thinking of two beers that I tried on vacation recently that I really liked, either Shepherd Neame Masterbrew, or Magic Hat Circus Boy. Then I relized there is great beer in Canada and I had to go with the beer that made University a lot easier to deal with, Hermann's Dark Lager from the Vancouver Island Brewery.
