Was a duck rabbit amber ale. What was yours, and what recommendations do you have for someone who can now finally buy beer?

				My favourites are probably Leffe and La Trappe.
La Trappe is pretty hard to find in North America, but most liquor stores carry Leffe.
Heineken is shit. Don't drink it.

Have you been to the Ommegang brewery before? I have family near Cooperstown so i've been there myself. Not 21 so I can't comment on the beer but the brewery was a pretty cool tour.

I have not but if I'm ever in the area I'll check it out.  Considering it's my favorite beer it should be pretty cool.

				One of the best I've had was Great Lakes Brewing Company Christmas Ale.  It's one of the hardest beers to find to the point that stores sellout the day they get them by 10AM the same day

				^ both idiots, don't listen to them
if you like ales and wanna dive right into really good craft beer i recommend checking out lagunitas from california. also sierra nevada is nice solid intro to craft with ales as well. the torpedo ipa is always great, one of the first i had years ago. also as john said dogfish head is a good start as well. they make solid IPA's pick up the 60minute IPA, eventually you can get the stronger ones like he posted the 120 min (lol) that has a nice kick but might be too harsh for a start
http://i.imgur.com/uHZPTDp.jpg
they make great ipa's and pale ales i'm sure you'll enjoy them. they have quite a bitter kick but nothing too overwhelming for someone just getting into craft
when you start to build a stronger palate you should check out these breweries
founders, sixpoint, three floyds, cigar city, hill farmstead, russian river, the alchemist, ballast point etc
ales are a nice start you can drink amber/pale ales, eventually dip into IPA's which are  really hoppy/strong, double ipa's higher ABV % really bitter but these will grow on you as you dip into more types of craft
when you start to grow curious about heavier beers like stouts and porters, imperial porters etc you should definitely check out founders. that shouldn't be hard to find and it will give you a nice introduction to heavier stuff. bourbon barrel aged beers etc
any other questions just add me
