Yes, I live near to two breweries, plus got a specialist beer shop close by.
Also I in an neighborhood thats locally known for its high quality of real ale pubs, yes I live on a pub crawl. 
But my local pubs aren't international famous for there beer, there widely know for there history, architecture and famous guess!
I had an Innis & Gunn Original on Burns Night, it went well with haggis.
I got the following the fridge:
Coniston Bluebird
Wapping Beers Winter Ale
Peerless Full Whack
Liverpool Organic Kitty Wilkinson
Liverpool Craft Dark Icon
Liverpool Craft Tane Mahuta

The breweries in Liverpool itself look pretty damned poor, unless you count the likes of Cains.
I'd love to have a pint of Cains Dark Mild (3.2%) later in the day.

I like beer but since I've quit smoking I can't drink it. It will make me want to smoke and after one or two I will throw caution to the wind and convince myself that I can "just smoke a few tonight and stop again tomorrow". I've done that for several reasons, drinking alcohol, stress, flying on a plane, and it never works.
I like Natural Ice and I like to drink it out of the can. For some reason when I drink beer out of a bottle or glass I get gassy but I don't when I drink it from a can. Natural Ice is cheap and a lot of people look down on it, but I like the taste much better than other beers. My oldest daughter and I had this discussion earlier tonight. She had gone to a Superbowl party with her fiance and she had some cream stout and some other kind of pecan something or other beer. She said they were much better than what I like, but to each their own I suppose. Hubby likes Bud longnecks or Bud Ice in the bottle. I used to drink Miller but don't like it anymore.

I beg to differ these been an increase of micro breweries on Merseyside over the last few years plus the quality is improving.
Years ago I would have an pint from a local micro brewery, now I do. Liverpool Craft and Liverpool Organic are the most succeful micro of late this side of the Mersey and Peerless the other side of the river.
yer I love Cains, my home is a five minute walk away from there brewery.

Rarely and I only drink alcohol once or twice per month on average. If I drink beer I prefer light to amber ales. Dark stouts are too bitter for my taste.

There are some extremely sweet stouts out there - I prefer my stouts to be strong, roasted and coffeeish personally, but very sweet stouts do exist. Depending on where you live I could probably give you some ideas.
