Pilsner Urquell is pretty good, but not great. Then again, it is the source of the word Pilsner, so there is something to be said for it.
My favorites are Bitburger (german) or Ottakringer (austrian).
Guinness can be good, but I find the quality is inconsistent, sometimes it tastes too sour or just funny. New Castle is real good though.
In europe (at least germany and austria) depending on the bar you can get 'strong beer' - up to 15% alcohol, tasting like wine or molasses. I stay away from those fruity wheat beers though.
For American I always like Summit, they make a real good winter ale, and it is local pride too (I live two blocks north of Summit Ave in St. Paul, though I haven't been to the brewery.)
