    Parabola for sure. Then XVI. Double Jack I love because I ALWAYS see it fresh. Which is incredible on FW's behalf since there are times when I can't find local IPAs that are as fresh. I haven't bought any yet, but I'm happy to see the 4 packs of Double Jack around, that is awesome!

    I have a bottle of XIV and XV I can't wait to open.

    1a Parabola
    1b Sucuba
    2 Wookey Jack
    3 Double Jack

    My favorite brewery so they're all great but if I had to choose it would be this way.

    Parabola. Sucaba's a close second.

    Love Wookey Jack and Double Jack too, though it's been tough lately finding fresh bottles. I recently saw a six-month old bottle of Wookey Jack.

    Union Jack is my favorite everyday release and being 15 minutes from the brewery I can always get it fresh...all time favorite would probably be Saucerful of Secrets or SLOambic if we're including the Barrelworks portfolio

    One time releases- 15 (I've only had 15 & 16, but have 14-16 in my cellar with a plan to do a 14-17 or 14-18 vertical)
    Annual- Parabola
    Year Round- Wookey Jack

    Parabola ftw. DoubleDBA and Sucaba are some of my favorite brews also. I'm surprised the Reserve Porter isn't getting much love, that is the best year round, non-imperial porter on the shelves imo.

    I've only tried the following so far:

    UJ
    DJ
    Wookey Jack
    Parabola
    Walker's Porter

    ...and out of those I can easily say WOOKEY JACK

    So hard to pick, but I think the best FW beer I have had is a Double Jack on tap. So good. I love all their stuff but I am a homer though. I even try their sour stuff which I usually don't like and I think Lil Opal is fantastic.

    I had my one and only FW14 for the GoT Season 3 Finale earlier this year.
    Wow, was fantastic. Drink that yo.

    Their Berliner Weisse is damn good.
    Hell Dorado is probably my favorite.
    Year round would be fresh Double Jack

    Union Jack, Parabola, Sucaba and Double Double Barrel are my favorites that you can buy in bottles.
    Favorite Anniversary beers have been XII and XIV.
    Also a big fan of the component beers like Bravo, Good Foot, Helldorado, Lil' Opal, Rufus, Stickee Monkee...

    I'm not a fan of Double Jack or Wookee Jack...

    The trip I've made to the Barrelworks was worth every minute and every mile and I plan on going back many, many times.
