a Buddy on the Beers LJ poste this and I thought I would share.

Our pub (www.fiddlershearth.com) is pretty proud of being one of the few places in Austin, TX (if not the only place) where you can't get a Budweiser. Instead, we pour imperial pints of the following (as of right now, anyway. We rotate out some tap handles):

Guinness
Smithwicks
Harp
Victory Prima Pilsner
Harpoon Celtic Ale (soon to be replaced with Magic Hat #9)
Avery White Rascal
Old Speckled Hen
Murphy's Irish Stout
Stone Smoked Porter
Stone Arrogant Bastard
Deschutes Mirror Pond Pale Ale
Deschutes Black Butte Porter
Real Ale Full Moon Rye
Live Oak Pilsner
Live Oak Big Bark
St. Arnold Elissa IPA
Left Hand Black Jack Porter
Franziskaner Heffe
Chimay White
Unibroue Maudite
Young's Chocolate Stout
Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout
Belhaven Scottish
Belhaven Twisted Thistle

We're always looking for recommendations that are shining examples of their beer types. Anyone got a favorite that's available in the region

Yes Obmagang is that good!
When the Belgian-owned Brewery Ommegang decided to put out a special beer called "Obamagang," the government stepped in to say "No way." The special single-batch brew was made to coincide with the presidential inauguration of Barack Obama. However, the feds at the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau said it is not permissible to use anyone's name or likeness for commercial purposes without their permission.

and now our regular links!

So, the brewery has re-named the beer "Inauguration Ale 2009", with a limited amount of kegs of being made available to select bars in Syracuse, Chicago, Boston, Washington DC, Philadelphia and New York. Ommegang will donate a percentage of sales to charities in the respective cities where the beer is sold.
"The [government] won't let us call the beer Obamagang on the keg label. So it will be known legally as 'Inauguration Ale 2009', but the tap handles will be more ... um ... direct," Ommegang said in a press statement. The style lies between a porter and stout, with a bit of Kriek and a touch of chocolate blended in.
