    Wormtown's Be Hoppy. A nice beer that is available basically everywhere here in Mass. for a good price. I also like that is available in both 16 oz cans and 12 oz bottles. Now if they would only do twelve packs....

    SoS, if I still lived in NE, would be a good bet. Resin before it seemed to fall off a cliff.

    But I think I'm pretty predictable here: Prairie Bomb!, Founders Breakfast Stout, and Sierra Nevada Narwhal - about in that order. (For hops: Tropicalia and Jai Alai, I suppose.)

    Bomb! isn't what it used to be, either, but I will always still be happy and satisfied with it. It's like a warm, super boozy blanket.

    So yeah, let's go with Bomb! :slight_smile:

    Yards makes great beer, period.

    It's probably just placebo, but since BOMB! went out for distro it definitely has seemed to lose a lot of its steam. That being said, I'm super happy to have regular access to that beer and a number of variants!

    Philly Pale is criminally underrated/under-discovered. So good.

    Bell’s Expedition Stout-I know this one is seasonable, but I buy a couple cases and drink it throughout the year.

    Bells Two Hearted. Consistent over a lot of years and a great shelf life. Available in multiple vessels, from 12 oz. cans and bottles to 16 oz+. cans to mini-kegs. A requirement when travelling to northern Michigan or the U.P. Don't drink it much when at home since places like Fat Heads is so close.

    I wish I could get HH in Michigan, but it still would be second choice to Two Hearted.

    A Fresh Sierra Nevada Torpedo is very hard to beat for quality and value. Huh! Having one now as a matter of fact.

    Same. I no longer get any ancho, and I barely really even get coffee ... but it's a delicious, super malty, high ABV chocolate bomb (pun not intended), and I'm loving my access. It may not be what it used to be (at least for me), but it's still delicious.

    I mostly drink old reliables. Pilsner Urquell is towards the top of the list. Aecht Shlenkerla Helles is up there. Jack's Abby House lager might be the top spot though.
