TS, most beers in Utah are 3.2% abv but I think in-state breweries can go up to 4%.
Most Utahns go out of state and bring better beer in with them.
I'm finding that most any beer imported from Belgium is the best (just way more expensive). Higher alcohol content (7-10%) but great taste unlike barley wines. We have John's Market here in Portland, OR that has the biggest beer selection I've ever seen. Have to make solo trips there as the family always asks "Can we leave yet?"

I have a buddy that grew up not too far from Latrobe. He said Rolling Rock was the cheap beer they drank when money was tight.
When they start selling Narragansett as a premium out there, let me know; I'll set up a distribution center for free, just to get that crap out of New England!

Questioning the Superiority of the National Beer of Texas! Outrageous!
Actually, I used to drink it just because it was the only beer that my roommates wouldn't touch when left in the fridge ;-)

3:Guinness and Woodchuck Cider layered like a Black and Tan. We call it a poor man's Black velvet. Quite tasty.

Man this one takes me back to RAF Mildenhall prior to the GWOT. At a little hotel bar right outside the gate (actually between the base and the flight line). The bartender added a shot of black current cordial. It was so good I forgot to ask how it was made and had to come back months later for another taste. Over the course of the night I also forgot my room number, my coat, her name, my name and how to speak english.
Good times, good times.

Typed as I'm drinking the last two (in a large frosted mug) of my SA Winter Lagers. They were kept in a very dark and cold place. Taste real good right now.

Widmer Bros., a Portland Oregon brewing company has a very nice amber ale, Drop Top.
I like Guiness, but it has to be on draught. The cans and bottles just didn't do it.
Cheers,
H.
