    What are the best five beers you can find at your local beer store at this moment? I never get around to trying them all, but from what I've had, I go with, in no particular order:
    Duvel
    Delerium Tremens
    Gulden Draak
    La Terrible
    Founders Curmudgeon
    Founders Breakfast Stout
    Goose Island Pere Jacques
    Old Rasputin
    Piraat

    Yeah, I know that's more than 5, let's see you try it.

    black butte anniversary (still there)
    Pliny the elder

    Just picked up an Alesmith Speedway Stout and Firestone Walker Double DBA, I'd count those as pretty awesome.

    Let's see...are we going to go by the top five beers that are currently at my place of employment/local liquor store? Because if so:

    2011 KBS
    2012 Cherry Rye BCBS
    2009 North Coast Old Stock
    2012 GI Juliet
    NEBCO Imperial Stout Trooper

    Assuming, however, that the more appropriate question would be "what are the top five beers that actual customers can buy?", the list would probably be:

    Founders Breakfast Stout
    Lunch
    Enjoy By 9.13.13
    Prearis Quadrupel
    Jack's Abby 2nd Anniversary

    2 of you still have Founders Imperial Stout in stock nearby? Why haven't you drunk it already?

    Why is it every single post includes Enjoy by 9.13.13. Should I fly to Cali? Pretty sure New Hampshire ain't-gettin'-any.
