    Also, I'm not sure how much of a sleeper this is, but I don't see nearly enough love for Allagash White.

    my sleeper beer is Fuller's ESB - always available, always delicious.

    you're missing (by far) the best one, man!

    Also, second the Berkshire Brewing Coffeehouse Porter (a god tier beer for me) and add Rising Tide Daymark to the list (although the $$$ is a little much - want to see this in $10 6 packs!).

    An avatar of a person is a lot more likely to be real than an avatar of a frog, no?

    Still haven't had Blondeshell Blonde or Live Oak Hefe either haha. I think I've heard both are good though; I've heard Live Oak Hefe is amazing.

    I'll probably get flamed on this one, but I think Wasatch Pumpkin Ale is underrated. Tastes like eating pumpkin pie, complete with whipped cream, and low enough ABV to enjoy a few without getting knocked down like most other pumpin ale behemoths.

    Yes! Seriously good beer. They've been tweaking the recipe. It was really good, then they made it worse, but then they made it even better than it was when they started. I would stack this up against Founders and Smutty Robust any day of the week.
