Ok, sampled a few over the past few weeks:
Murphy's Irish Ale nitro-can: very good, I think I might like it a little more than the Guinness because it has less bite on the finish than the Guinness.
Sam Adam's Octoberfest: my first bottle I wasn't a fan, but as I've been working through the sixer in the past week I think I actually like it quite a bit.
Tuckaleechee Porter made by Smokey Mountain Brewery (micro-brew in Gatlinburg, TN) a nice malty ale with a thick taste and a hint of licorice in the finish. I also sampled one of theirs called Thunder Road, but woof it had a nasty after-taste almost like egg yolks or something, not good.
Newcastle Brown Ale: wow, my favorite brown ale by far, a nice sweet malty flavor none of the hoppy bitterness that other have, a very nice beer to have with a dinner.
