Revolver, hands down. Firstly, it was musically innovative as hell, with stuff like "Tomorrow Never Knows" and the backwards guitar in "I'm Only Sleeping". It also showed George Harrison really coming into his own as a songwriter, with "Taxman", "Love You To" and "I Want To Tell You", and Paul McCartney contributed some of his best lyrics with "Eleanor Rigby" (my favourite Beatles song, by the way) and "For No One". They were all at their creative peak, musically and lyrically, and its influence on psychedelic rock was huge. If that's not the mark of the Beatles' best album, I don't know what is.
