I've received exceptional random acts of kindness from the following BeerAdvocates, and I'd like to publicly note their awesomeness.

Styles I'm most interested in
(Reference for BIFs and extras and such)
IPA's of all kinds. English, American, Double/Imperial, etc.
"Strong Ale." A catch-all category for stuff too interesting to pin down to one style. :)
Any stout/porter without a prominent anise/licorice flavor, nor a overly strong smoke character.
Wheatwine
Barleywine. English in particular, but Americans can also be quite tasty. :)
Old Ale
Farmhouse Ales
Traditional Lambics - That is, NOT sweetened post-fermentation
(gueuze, kriek, unblended, framboise, etc., etc.)
Any Trappist/Abbey ales
Flanders ales (Reds, Browns, Oud Bruin, etc.)
Oh hell, pretty much anything Belgian besides witbiers. :·p
Certain Wild Ales - I don't care for the abrasive tartness of American Wilds (like Supplication, Veritas, Consecration, etc), but I love the funk found [mostly] in imports (like Cantillon Iris, 3F Oude Gueuze, Cuvee Rene, Bambic, Goudenband, etc).
Traditional English styles (Milds, Bitters, etc.)
Berliner Weissbier
Dunkelweizen
Gose
Roggenbier
Weizenbock
Doppelbock
Eisbock
Kellerbier/Zwickelbier
Scottish Ales (60/-, 70/-, 80/-, 90/-, whatever/-, etc.)
Uncommon historical/traditional styles (Gruit ales, Dampfbier, Graetzer, Kentucky Common, etc.)
And finally: They're quite few and far between, but I really love beers that represent subtle styles but still manage to be complex and interesting. A really well done Kölsch, for example, is a beautiful thing.
