Beer geek here. I love me some American micros, and being where I am geographically, there's tons of them around. I can find Dogfish Head, Victory, Troeg's, Great Lakes, and many more in local bars.
My favorite micro would have to be DFH 90 Minute IPA. There's just nothing like it in terms of double IPAs - or, well, much of anything else in general.
As for imports, I'm officially addicted to Chimay Blue, and I pick it up in 750s whenever I can. That stuff is like crack. I also enjoy a lot of other Belgians, as well as some Bavarians (Aecht smoked marzen is amazing, and Franziskaner hefeweizen is my standby for something lighter.)
On the cheap, it's all about Yuengling porter, which is the only domestically-brewed porter that I know of. Even here in PA, with our insane alcohol taxes, I can find the stuff for about $20/case.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
