    To be nitpicky, Beast Mode from Sixpoint. Great beers but this was below average to me. Over carbonated and thin.

    The two worst beers I´ve had, can´t decide between them:

    1. Founder´s Mango Magnifico, I picked it up in a bottle shop in Brooklyn and I was so pleased with myself. It was behind the counter and I had to ask for the privilege of paying 18$ to get one. Three swallows and the rest down the drain, I drank a bunch of Sixpoint beers to fix the horrible taste it left behind. Only bad beer I ever had from Founders.

    2. Crooked Moon/Mikkeller´s Black Ink and Blood. Total disaster, tastes like rotten fruit and mouldy wood. And I love both these brewers.

    Other Half is a great new(ish) brewery in Brooklyn, that constantly pumps out great beers. But they made one called Lembeek 86, which was one of the foulest beer experiences I've had

    I actually enjoyed that, I certainly wouldn't call it a fail. They went for orange creamsicle and nailed it. It wasn't anything noteworthy, but it wasn't a fail.

    Another 'fail' for me would be Shipyard's Mint Stout. It was awful enough that my tasting group didn't even want to finish the bottle. The ratings here agree.

    I would mention Rogue's Voodoo Doughnut ales, but that wouldn't fit the OPs description of a brewery that makes amazing beer. They make average beer with a lot of misses.

    Haters gonna hate. Not every beer a brewery makes has to appeal to you.

    Said to hear this. I think Dogfish does some awesome stuff. You may not like the style, but don't drink it, try something different. To each his own. Cheers !!

    Uhm, the thread asks about one's personal picks for undrinkable beers. It doesn't say a majority should agree with one.

    If anyone like that thing I must call into question their aesthetic judgment.

    I was just about to write about Rogue's Voodoo Doughnut Maple Bacon. It's probably the worst craft beer I have had. But I don't like Rogue anyways, so...

    About the Bruery, damn dude. That's gutsy. Yes, they fulfilled their goal, but that goal was seriously disgusting.

    I like spicy as in Westbrook Mexican Cake spicy, but this one is obviously a love/hate beer.
