"Everyday" beer? / "Treat yourself" beer?
Everyday: Leinenkugel's Red Lager, although their Creamy Dark is also yummy.

Treat yourself: Guinness of course, with Murphy's Irish Stout running a close second.

1. Everyday: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
Treat myself: I go to this brewpub on the ocean, or to Magnolia's in the Haight, or the Thirsty Bear by Moscone Center, and get whatever strikes my fancy :-)

10. I drink Heineken
for my "Everyday" beer and as the "treat myself beer"

But if it's $1.00 beer night or any kind of beer special at the bar, I go for a Coors Light. Why? Cause it's cheap!

12. By a quick survey of roadside litter...Bud light.
I pick up more empty bud light cans and bottles on my road frontage than anything else. To judge a "treat myself beer" I would guess they favor a regular Bud.

13. Mine:
Everyday: Miller High Life (after all, it's the Champagne of Beers)

Treat Yourself: Definitely Guiness, or when I feel like REALLY treating myself, Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout. That shit is like an orgasm in my mouth.

14. Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss
is pretty much my favorite beer at the moment. God that's good stuff. The Creamy Dark is good too, and the regular, but the Red Lager isn't available here.

Anyway, that's my "treat yourself" beer, because it's about as expensive here in OK as Guiness is (and I much prefer it).

My everyday beer is Lost Lake Ice, which is real cheap ... much cheaper than Budweiser, etc., but tastes much better and is six point. (Here in Oklahoma, the stuff in the grocery stores is 3.2 :()

16. I love Leinie's.
I drink too many varieties to narrow everything down, but favorites include Pete's Wicked, Leinie's, and Rogue.
