Those look fun to try. I've only had the Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale. Nice. Thanks for the link, Chess!

Probably worth the drive to St Louis to try out Schlafley's (#9). They have a cask conditioned ale that is probably the best beer I've ever had.

Latest Beer Tastings, all on tap:

Arrogant Bastard Ale - A good ale, lots of flavor. Liked it.
Spaten Optimator - Always a solid choice. A sipper for sure, but loaded with dark, malty, and fruity/date flavors
Leinenkugel Berry Weiss - Too much berry for my taste buds, good with a pizza, though.
Sam Adams Winter Ale - Great dark ale. I loved the hazelnut taste that came out at the end.
Turbodog - This one seemed kind of a dull brown ale to me. That's really it.
Harvest Moon - A bit disappointed with this one. Could barely taste any "pumpkin" in the ale, so a little lacking in the flavor department.
Rogue Double Dead Guy - Holy crap. Amazing. So full of flavor. I want one right now.
Dundee Honey Brown Ale (in bottle) - Alright, nothing offensive. A sweet beer, but just "another" beer.
Leinenkugel Fireside Nut Brown Ale - I really liked this one. Smells of maple syrup, with a sweet, malty cinnamony flavor.
Three Floyd's Gumballhead - A nice, strong wheat ale with a lot of flavor. Really liked this.
Hoeggarden - Loved this. Lots of great spicy wheat flavor with a fruity aftertaste. So refreshing.
Bell's Porter - One of the best porter's I've had. Lots of complex flavor.
Upland Wheat - Alright...nothing exciting.

Dan, I hope you spread those out a bit!

I've been enjoying the Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat but have yet to run into any other offerings by them. The Berry Weiss (yeah, I like girl beers) and the Fireside Nut Brown Ale sound good.

As far as pumpking beers, the Harvest Moon is a bit of a wash--especially considering how good their other offerings are. So far, Buffalo Bill's Pumpkin Ale is my favorite.

Dammit!! That's also what I typed in the Google search bar. . .

Apparently, that's how I want to spell it from now on.

I've had the following of Leinie's... Oktoberfest, Sunset Wheat (really good), Fireside Nut Brown Ale, Berry Weiss, Summer Shandy (interesting lemonade beer), and I've seen Red Lager on tap.

Well, I've just had 7/9 Lenie beers (no, not at once ;-), so I figure I'd give my report of what are repeats and not repeats for me, especially since you can find them at a lot of places.

Sunset Wheat - Repeat, a classic. I think I like it better than Blue Moon...
Honey Weiss - Good, maybe repeat
Berry Weiss - Unique, but no repeat
Oktoberfest - Good, favorite for the style, repeat
Summer Shandy - Great, unique, repeat
Red Lager - Nopeat, boring bla
Fireside Nut Brown - Liked this a lot. Repeat.

That’s a lot more variety of leinenkugel than when I lived in Madison. All I remember about the ones I tried is that they were ok but nothing spectacular. However, I did really like the New Glarus Brewing Co. beers. Especially liked Uff-Da Bock.
