I didn't even see your questionnaire originally, Belgian Tripels are excellent. I don't drink a whole lot from Victory anymore, but they were one of my gateways to the craft community. Without Troegs and Victory, I don't know if I'd have ever gotten into it, as I started young on those 2 breweries when the craft scene wasn't so popular. They opened my eyes to what is flavor and not the Canadian and American lagers I was drinking beforehand. I see quite a few people into craft beer on the boards and that's awesome to see.

Fortunately, it moved to Ohio, and now, I just have my inlaws from the Dayton area bring me a couple cases, or I pick up a few when I go there or Cincy. I used to bring back big loads from WVA, Nashville, or South Carolina when we go to the Southern 500.
If I go to a restaurant that doesn't have a good craft beer on tap or bottled, I'll just drink water. If I'm with friends and they offer me a Labatt Blue or Yeungling, I'll drink one with them. Yeungling is ridiculously popular around here, so you usually see at least a couple people drinking it at any social gathering. It's one of the very few macro lagers that I don't mind, but I really prefer ales.

Unfortunately, that's a common theme among the piss drinkers. They can insult craft by calling it "girly" (which makes zero sense), but then you're a "hipster" when you explain why it's not really manly to drink shitty beer. Meh, it is what it is.
