Whatever you're payin' for, Baldo!
All types, except mass-produced chemical-laced Yankee-style piss.
You left out porter, you dweeb!
I'll go for the high-test "whiffy" Belgian, this time out....

A simple amber ale always hits the spot for me, such as Killiian's Red. Not sure which one on your poll Killian's qualifies for....perhaps Buttwiper.

Beer is the only alcooholic I drink presently so I am not looking anymore to the label...
EDIT: I drink whiskey in some very special occasions!

Whiskey. I find alcohol has very little point other than to induce
tipsiness (though many people like the taste because they acquire iit
from drinking the stuff so much). I'd much rather drink a couple shots
of whiskey than seven beers, gets the job done quicker and there's less
need to piss afterwards.

I did miss that one, old chap. Duly noted. "One for Pete missy. Yes, sippy cup... he tends to spill."

My neighbour Sean Trane live in The Land Of The Great Beers but I'm glad that we have good import beer shops in Holland!
My favorite beers:
The strong ones: La Chouffe, Rochefort 10 and Westmalle (Trappist beers), Grimbergen Optimo Bruno, Hoegaarden Grand Cru
The fresh and light beers: Mythos (Greek), Gulpener Korenwolf (white), Amstel Bright
Fruit beer: Mongozo Banana Beer, Liefmans Kriek (cherry)
Special beers: Desperados (a bit tequila)
CHEERS EVERYBODY!!

Danny boy, you're useless, not only did you omit 'Porter' from your list, but also that prince among inebriants, 'Dark Mild'
Oh, just sit down then, & drink your usual fizzy gnat's water laaaaaager.
Hmph! I give up - you try to educate some people

The Chimay white is the blond beer they make, but I think their strenght lies in the darker brown beers: the red label is 7% and the Blue label is 9%. They are practically the same taste, but I find the blue one more tasty.
The white Chimay is completely different and is very Hoppy tasting, but in that case, I like the Westmalle Triple - the hoppiest beer I have been given to taste (outside of Czeck beers that is)

I like the Belgian/Trappist beer once in a while, especially Chimay Red
or Duvel, but it is potent stuff and so for regular (ahem) sipping I'd
go for a pilsner, either Pilsner Urquell which is a little lighter at
around 4.2% or else "proper" Czech Budweiser.

- Here's what the Encyclopedia Galactica has to say about alcohol.
It says that alcohol is a colourless volatile liquid formed by the
fermentation of sugars and also notes its intoxicating effect on
certain carbon-based life forms.
- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy also mentions alcohol. It
says that the best drink in existence is the Pan Galactic Gargle
Blaster.
- It says that the effect of a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is like
having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a
large gold brick.
- The Guide also tells you on which planets the best Pan Galactic
Gargle Blasters are mixed, how much you can expect to pay for one and
what voluntary organizations exist to help you rehabilitate afterwards.
