    Hey, that's 10, no fair! I'm going to limit it to 5 total which makes it much, much harder.

    1. PtE
    2. Alpiine Duet
    3. Heady Topper
    4. Surly Furious
    5. DFH 60 Minute

    60 Minute might not deserve to be on lots of people list, but time and time again I keep coming back to it and each time I have it I fall in love with it all over again. It's just such a damn good beer when it's fresh.

    I've tried some of the offerings I can get from Stone, Bear, SN, Anchor, Boston Beer, and will be trying more as they become more widely available.

    But it's pretty hard to rate a six week old Racer 5 against a Two-Hearted right out of the tap at the brewery.

    Not a trader yet - I like these better.
