My all time favourite is Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier (with their Kristalweissbier a close second) :)

I can't wait to try their Dunkel! I should hopefully be going to Germany (Bavaria) this year, so here's hoping it's a warm summer to sit out on the street enjoying, as yet, undiscovered Bavarian treasures! :cool:

Aaaah the days of being able to just nip over the border into the Netherlands (Limburg) to one of the pubs with 100s of beers on the menu. Typical when I was over there I used to crave all the Scottish stuff I was missing, now I'm missing all the German and Dutch food and drink :o
 
Wifebeater aka Stella me favourite tipple for neon years now :D Hence a good few drunken posts on here :D They make no sense even to me the day after Hoo Hum.....

Well for wheat beers Id suggest a few other than the standard Erdinger - Franziskaner, Weihenstephaner and also Schneider Weisse. The dark double-bock Aventinus isnt really a big style but theres a similar one called Spaten Optimator which I tried on tap in Zum Schneider in the East Village in New York - lovely. http://www.zumschneider.com for reference.

You should also try and check out if you can find anything by Samuel Smiths (brewed in Yorkshire - their Imperial Stout, Oatmeal Stout and Taddy Porter are great, great beers.

Tripels, well, apart from the usual I really like Delerium (think thats triple?), Affligem, Karmeliet. Abbaye Des Rocs stuff is great too, their Brune especially.

Asda also sell the Guinness Foreign Extra Stout at £1.20 a bottle, its an awesome stout which is easily found too.

Also, look out for Sierra Nevada Pale Ale which is a very decent brew, found in Tescos too I think.
