    All personal preference, but for me:
    Dark horse double crooked tree
    Founders harvest ale
    Bells the Oracle

    Needed to spread the love between breweries. It's hard to choose between two hearted, oracle, and hopslam.

    Haven't had too many but will go with Hopslam, Two Hearted & Harvest Ale. I'd gladly drink any of these three.

    So many others that are really good and tough to leave out.

    1. Bells Hopslam
    2. Bells Oracle
    3. Shorts Goodnight Bodacious or Freedom of '78. Really struggling with this one. I know '78 is brewed in MI but it technically was a collab with an out of state brewer so maybe that will help me make the decision in my own mind:grinning: Gun to my head, I'll go with Goodnight Bodacious.

    My wife and I agree on our top two,
    Bell's Hopslam
    Dark Horse Double Crooked Tree
    My third choice was Short's Sticky Icky Icky, while hers was Founder's Mosaic Promise. Several great IPA's to choose from.

    Bells two hearted
    Dark horse crooked tree
    Founders all day (that 15 pack can and it's enjoyable taste just kill it in boat season)

    Founder's Harvest Ale
    Kuhnhenn Fluffer
    Dan's Pink Skirt

    Next 3 would probably be Two Hearted, 51k, and Odd Side Citra.

    So many good ones to choose from. Maybe not the highest rated but my favorite are

    DRIPA
    Liberator
    Mad Hatter

    After having this last night at Founder's I'd have to say Sleeper Cell is up there for one of the best hoppy beers I've had from MI. This new batch is especially delicious.
    Round it out with Two Hearted and DRIPA.
