    The reviews on this site for just about all of their beers are almost identical. Which is your favorite? I'm asking out of curiosity, mainly because I'm debating which sixer I should pick up from them next. (I've tried Porter and Centennial IPA and love them both.)

    Or if you have any other Michigan beer suggestions, I'll take those too.

    Between their Porter and Centennial IPA, I may like the Centennial IPA a liiiittle bit more, but they're still two of the better beers I've had.

    The Porter is my favorite year-round from them but FBS may be be my favorite beer, period.

    Dirty Bastard is one of my favorite beers, ever. Makes me wish there were more Scotch Ales around to compare it to. If I am lucky enough to get the breakfast stout, I'm sure it will rank high as well.

    Harvest Ale, I love that stuff. Can't wait to get it again this year.

    I love all of their big stouts, but when it comes to their year-round offerings, Dirty Bastard is tough to beat.

    KBS, Founders Imperial Stout, and Red's Rye PA.

    The Imperial Stout is still my all-time favorite Russian Imperial Stout.

    Year-round would have to be Porter.

    But over all - CBS, KBS, FBS, Imperial Stout

    ...but seriously can you go wrong with any of them :slight_smile:

    Have many but if I could have 1 of their seasonals year round (and fresh) it would be Double Trouble.

    All Day IPA blew me away when I had a chance to try it last month...

    Are they not allowed to sell singles/mix-a-six in MI stores?

    If they can, you have your answer OP. Now you should make another thread about something else.

    I think the FBS is pretty solid. KBS is up there, but would rank higher if it was something easier to get.

    The All Day IPA is pretty solid though.

    Backwoods Bastard is stellar...
    In terms of year round offerings Red Rye, Dirty Bastard, and Porter are all delicious...

    I honestly think you can't go wrong with anything from Founders. Everything they make is at the very least solid, and most beers are outstanding.
