Best beers in America?

[OSU]

In my opinion the king of American beers is Dogfish Head's 120 minute IPA...it will blow your mind.

"Stroes"

You mean Strohs?

One of my favorite beers. Not quite safe for work, watch the sound level.

Stone Brewing is now available in Missouri, which is awesome for me, as that's where I buy most of my beer. Deschutes is also newly available in Missouri. And Green Flash is coming to Missouri really soon. The number of good breweries available there is really improving.

I heard Goose Island, since the sale, will be coming to Oklahoma later this year.

New Belgium is my favorite brewery, but Fat Tire is probably my least favorite of their beers. I'm loving their sours right now, La Folie and Le Terroir. My wife loves her some Oskar Blues Old Chub. Great Divide Yeti is awesome, my favorite beer I can get in Oklahoma.

Russian River is the main one on that list I wish I could get my hands on more frequently. They're in California, and they distribute in their home state and out of state to Colorado and Philadelphia. Their sours are incredible.

Dogfish 120 is GREAT. I guess it didn't make the list due to its limited supply & availability. Very good beer but it's still not Pliny. It does make my top 10 though. If you're ever in Portland visit the Horse Brass Tavern. They always have it on tap which is hard to do even in north Cali. 
In terms of local beer I'm drinking the new Marshall's Arrowhead now. I like it, only because it tastes like Cascade hops was used, which is my favorite. It's good but I still think I like the Revival Red a little more, but it gives it a run for its money.
Right now I'm into the new Black IPAs. Selection is very very limited right now. If you make it to McNellie's give the Dogzilla a try. Good stuff.

Stone coming to MO? Great news! May have to make a road trip. What's the closest establishment to the border that has a great selection? Been awhile since I've had Green Flash.
I love New Belgium too and I agree, Fat Tire doesn't appeal to me but a lot of people like it. Any beer that gets the masses to quit drinking macros is a good beer to me.
I could go for some Arrogant Bastard right now.

I just can't seem to get into most beers.  I tried  the Marshalls McNeillies Pub Ale and forced down two, but couldn't do anymore.  I tried a Samual Adams Boston Lager tap while in Boston (at Cheers to boot), and I enjoyed it at first, but after about half the class it just became too bitter to me.  Boulavard Wheat was alright to me, but not enough to get me to keep drinking it.  Sadly, my prefer beer is Corona.  I know, shameful, but that is what I have found I enjoy beer wise.  But then, it might be like me and wine, I just have to find the right one, and I just haven't yet.

You fit the profile of a 20th Century American beer consumer.  Congratulations, you win the gold ring of Blah.

It's only been in the past five or so years that I've even started enjoying any kind of beer, so that might explain some of it as well.  Adversly, I can't stand a lot of whiskies or straight drinks anymore.

If you like Boulevard Wheat, then you'll love the Marshall Sundown Wheat.  I can't go more than two weeks without it.  It's like crack...in beer form.

Yuck...can't stand Corona.  It's all my brother will drink.  He's younger, he'll learn.

[Red Arrow]

He's younger, he'll learn.

Maybe not.

Before I saw the light (pun intended), I consumed many Bud Light beers.  They (Miller, Coors, Bud and others) don't necessarily taste bad.  They are just very light on taste.   Too light for me.

How about a Belgian hefewisen like Hoegarden or it's mass-produced Americain knock-off, Blue Moon?

I like Blue Moon..it's kinda funny that Buffalo Wild Wings classifies it as a Craft Beer...even though most do, it's made by Molson Coors, so I wouldn't technically consider it one.  I know a lot of the beer geeks have arguments about it.

It's not bad, Blue Moon. More flavor than Corona or Bud or Coors or whatever other mass produced beer I can think of. Now where did I put that Zima?
