California

1. Go to bomber: KRBC JOIPA. @$5 can't get any better.

2. Limited release: Citra DIPA. Live only an hour away. Central valley sucks but I guess that's a perk

3. local local (I mean your own backyard local): Lengthwise Zeus or Ale Ya.

4. Cheap, get drunk choice: $1.54 16oz cans if SN Torpedo!

5. Anything else from KRBC

 

1) Other Half Green Diamonds
2) Rushing Duck Naysayer Pale
3) Rushing Duck De Levende Doden
4) Peekskill Eastern Standard
5) Sixpoint Sweet Action

 

In no particular order.. tried to hit a variety of my favorite styles: stout, barrel aged XXXX, HOPPY (had to double up), and sour...

• Thirsty Dog Wulver (Best BA Wee Heavy out)
• Jackie O's Bourbon Barrel Dark Apparition (tops KBS)
• Columbus IPA (cheap and my go-to IPA)
• Hoof Hearted South of Eleven DIPA (Keep this brewery on the DL... errrr, maybe not. Much smaller, but they can easily compete with Fat Heads, TBK, CBC, etc.. when it comes to hoppy offerings)
• Rivertown Ojos Negros (Best sour in Ohio, IMO... great blackberry flavor)

I could come up with a different list of 5 amazing beers and then probably another after that... boy, it seems weird to say, but I feel very lucky to live in Ohio with the craft beer scene we have... Or should I say I feel lucky to live in this country for our exemplary output of world class brews?
