Arrogant Bastard is a very bitter APA. It takes some getting used to, and should be drunk more around the 50F-60F range. (I didn't like it the first time I tried it either). Stone Brewery makes some of the best "Hop-head" type beers around. Their Imperial IPA is pretty hoppy!

Young's beer is always a good choice. The Chocolate Stout being one of the better ones. The Oatmeal is pretty good as well.

If you like heavy dark beer, try the Belgian Abbey style ale's and Barley Wine's.
