I just heard about this. The Schlitz, that is, not your local joint.

Yes it is.
Bell's is awesome. Oberon is great, Two Hearted is Divine.

I was at a teliqua bar in St. Paul this weekend, that had Hamm's on tap.
How awesome. The only place I've seen this on tap.

If anybody sees Lions Head beer in StL, lemme know. I had 1 in Manhattan at a bar; it was a cheap awesome pilsner. Apparently it's a typical college beer up in the north east, but I liked it a lot.

I've had the Moose Drool. It's a solid, above average beer, IMO.

I went to the New Holland Brewery a few weeks ago. The Poet and Sundog were liked by the group, but I had some of their heavier stuff. I had the Black Tulip, the Dragon's Milk, and the Pilgrim's Dole; each of which was phenomenal.
