Double Bastard Ale
Warning: Double Bastard Ale is not to be wasted on the tentative or weak. Only the Worthy are invited, and then only at your own risk. If you have even a modicum of hesitation, DO NOT buy this bottle. Instead, leave it for a Worthy soul who has already matriculated to the sublime ecstasy of what those in the know refer to as "Liquid Arrogance."

Arrogant Bastard Ale
This is an aggressive ale. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate an ale of this quality and depth. We would suggest that you stick to safer and more familiar territory–maybe something with a multi-million dollar ad campaign aimed at convincing you it’s made in a little brewery, or one that implies that their tasteless fizzy yellow beverage will give you more sex appeal. Perhaps you think multi-million dollar ad campaigns make things taste better. Perhaps you’re mouthing your words as you read this.

+ 1 for Bells (Kalamazoo MI) Amber Ale. Also Fat Tire is at the top of my list probably because I'm usually drinking it at the end of a downhill ski run in the Rockies.

It is great to see Bells represented in Fla and all over the country. It is really fine stuff and we Kalamazoo residents are proud.
Another excellent Pils is Pilsner Urquell from the Czek republic (fmr). Not excessively manly but the genuine article of the old Pilsner breed.

+1. Fat Tire is one of my favorite beers with pizza. Almost made it to the brewery in Ft. Collins. NB- closed Mondays!

How about RACER 5 pale ale from Bear Republic Brewing Co in Healdsberg, CA. Of course, ALL of the Sierra Nevada beers are worthy as are the Deshutes and the New Belgium products.
PLEASE, NO MICHELOB ULTRA!
I think it's time for a Negra Modelo. Hmm...
