    Definitely one of my favorite styles, too bad there aren't a ton of them available.

    I'm going with amber and brown ales, a few examples I really enjoy.

    If we can say Scotch Ale/Wee Heavy that is not barrel aged then I'd vote for that. One of my favorite styles with or without the barrel aging.

    Brown ales- I always sing the praises of browns to anyone who will listen. In fact, my recent WOW beer was a brown ale- treehouse Bear.

    Weizenbocks! Love the Sam 3 Weiss Men and the Victory Moonglow but there aren't very many others brewed here in America that I could easily get my hands on!

    Someone posted how many of each style are in the top 250 in this thread. That post was directly before yours in fact, but I guess you didn't read that either. :rolling_eyes:

    yes i bought a sixer during the summer to reminisce a little and had a hard time w it, was definitely not a drain pour but i was looking forward to number 6, would like to see the Dinkle Acker Dark to reminisce a bit more.

    I'll say Brown Ales; DFH Indian Brown Ale is phenomenal.

    Brown ales and alt beer. So easy to get overlooked and they go down easy.

    Bocks. Probably my favorite style of a lager. I think they get overlooked, because people associate them with Michelob Amber bock and shiner bock. However, there are some damn good ones out there, probably Schells Bock being my favorite. Sam Adams winter lager is another one.

    Another vote for Mild and Bitter.

    Craft beer drinkers have been embracing session beers for a few years now, and craft brewers are into reviving obscure styles. Seems like a no brainer.
    I'd much rather drink a bottle conditioned low abv. English style beer than a session IPA.

    Kolsch...when done right, hands down best warm weather session beer. Good in cold weather too.
