What is the best beer you've ever had?

Smithwicks is my all-time favorite up to this point, but I'm trying to find (and drink) as many beers on BA's top 100 list as possible to find a successor. What are your favs?
 
It really depends on what style I'm looking for; Duchesse De Bourgogne, Cantillon Lou Pepe, Young's Double Chocolate Stout, Nogne O Dark Horizon are among the tops. So many to choose from!
 
Had a Golden Monkey. Don't know much about it except that it was spiced and it tasted awesome. ABV was a little high... they can definitely knock you on your ass if you're not careful.
 
Tough to rank them, so in no particular order, here are my favorites:

Triple Sugar Tripel - 75th Street Brewery (Kansas City, only sold in the restaurant)
Chimay Rouge
Schlafly Coffee Stout (seasonal)
Guinness (love the stuff, can't help it)
Boulevard Bourbon Barrel Quad (limited release from Boulevard Brewery, they're re-releasing it due to it's popularity... maybe the best I've ever had)

Very close:
Young's Double Chocolate Stout
New Belgium Skinny Dip
Hoegarden (only overseas... it doesn't ship well and tastes bad in the states)
 
The local brew pub has a Summer Ale that's basically the best I've ever had.

It's almost impossible to name a #1 beer.
