    Pretty sure Miller Lite, Bud Light, or Coors Light would answer this question. For myself, it would be Miller Lite out of these options.

    In terms of overall lineups, Oskar Blues takes the top of the hill.

    Best I've ever had from a can is Heady Topper. Next would be Ten Fidy then Jai Alai IPA.

    Depends on whether you are being disingenuous - we don't want to reward bad behavior ;-)

    Is that right? Been in the beer business since 1999 and that is when I was first on BeerAdvocate.com, before there was (and I was) "Sixpoint."

    Of course, many people were still learning how to use the internet at that time, and these message boards on BA only had a few hundred active users. But if you were on this site you'd remember I was on the forums before Sixpoint was even launched, doing things in the same tone and manner as I still am in 2014.

    There's nothing commercial about it - this is as grassroots and OG as it comes, son.

    Surly Furious, HD'R, Nebraska IPA, and SNPA because someone keeps my cooler full and I never quite finish them all.

    Sixpoint resin is top notch. Heady is great, but the hype is a little redic at this point. It's a great brew, but not for what people want for them

    I'm really into the session beers right now so CCB Invasion, Founders All Day, Terrapin Hi-5. Definitely got to mention CCB Cubano-Style Espresso Brown Ale, which is great in a can.

    Abrasive by a length. (Never tried Heady).

    Honorable mention goes to Sculpin, Ten Fidy, Jai Alai, Bale Breaker's Topcutter, and Great River's Farmer Brown.

    Was disappointed in the canned Two Hearted I tried. Usually Love the beer, but it's tasted off the times I had it in a can.

    I'm liking the craft can revolution. Used to look down on cans early on, until I realized that no light hits the finished product. Not to mention unless it's an AAL cheapy the craft cans more often than not get poured into a glass.
