    For me it's been the 2014 offering of Hoptimum.

    Some great responses on here already, so I'll go with a non flashy answer and say how pleasantly surprised I was with Beer Camp. Particularly Ninkasi and Bell's.

    Are you sure rarity is not influencing your opinion?

    For most of us I expect. No dinner, no anything "Sue", no triple Sunshine or barrel aged Everett.

    For me, and based on posts on WBAYDN, maybe for some others, I'd say Lagunitas Littke Sumpin' Extra. Close behind is Longtrail Limbo. Near universal praise plus high availability.

    Came here to post this.

    Sixpoint Hi-Res was just as good, probably, and also right up there is a beer most of you will not have had or heard of, but Jackie O's 2014 Dark Robustic (sour barrel aged chocolate cherry milk stout, oh mama) earlier this year was just phenomenal.

    Triple Sunshine was legitimately outstanding. Rare as hell, but phenomenal in its own right.

    Sour in the Rye: Coconuts and Pineapples...

    One of the best sours I've had... ever.

    And to think it USED to be growler fill before people decided to buy a ridiculous amount for trades and what not. boo

    These were the 3 new beers I thought were world class this year according to untapped.

    Bible Belt was great as well.
