    I've had all their canned offerings, most recently their OB IPA, which I found underwhelming. Dale's Pale is the best I've had from them. Especially when fresh. I would love to visit the brewery and try what they have on tap, but till then, I will continue drinking their pale ale. What is your fave from OB?? And if you've been to the brewery and sampled what they have on draft, please share your experience. Thanks!

    You should do a poll. I have a feeling most people will choose Ten FIDY.

    Pinner was one of my favorite easily accessible beers of the summer. Ten Fidy is an amazing stout. If we're talking my all-time favorite Oskar Blues brew however, it would have to be G'knight hands down.

    [Edit] I also really enjoyed their new IPA a lot.

    In no particular order:

    Ten Fidy
    Old Chub
    Dale's Pale Ale
    Pinner
    IPA
    Yella

    To be honest, their whole line up is awesome.

    Old Chub, so far. I've had Ten Fidy, which I intend to revisit after it has some age on it.

    The two times I tried Ten Fiddy, one was fresh, the other had a year on it. I could taste the tin can in both of them. G'knight had garlic notes. Didn't care for it at all. This was around 4 years ago, however, Have they changed the recipe for G'knight? Pinner was better than their IPA, but very unbalanced and drank like a light beer with little flavor.

    That's why I don't like canned beer. Try it on tap.

    Old Chub was good, but I had a pint after I had a Gravedigger Billy the day before. No comparison. And this is a style I am not a fan of.

    Old Chub for sure. For a quality 8% beer it's hard to beat for the price! Can usually get it for around $8/six-pack.

    I love Summit done right so I was a big fan of original Gubna, but Ten fidy is such a righteous and easily available treat. Hmmmmm

    BA Ten Fidy is almighty.
    After that, it's a toss up between Dale's, One Nut, G'night, and normal Ten Fidy.

    Old Chub is goddamned delicious, one of the better widely-available scotch ales on the market imo. G'Knight is also fantastic. I do want to try their new IPA.
