Help me pick a beer

I have a open pallet when it comes to beer I have drank Samuel Adam's and it is a fine beer. It is just a little pricey. I do not mind paying for a beer that I can try for the first time and enjoy!!
I am writing these down so I can show them to George at the liquor store.
Thanks and keep them coming
I was in Chicago about 4 years ago and went to a bar and had some dark beer that I did enjoy but I do not remember the name of it.
But I do prefer drinking from a frosted mug when I can.
