    Who knows, second runnings would taste quite different.

    Bell's Two Hearted - all over here and a great beer that I never buy except to trade.

    No distro to NJ so anytime I'm in PA I grab something Bell's. Always a treat too.

    Samuel Smith, if it was more rare people would go crazy to get their stouts and porters.

    SNPA, Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout, Alesmith Speedway, Bear Republic's Hop Rod Rye and Racer 5,...there's a lot, but I keep chasing that strange.

    Oh, and Stone's Pale Ale. I actually like it better than the IPA which is also damned good. And price is right too.

    Ipswich Oatmeal Stout
    Much of Unibroue
    A lot of Ommegang
    Some of the Weihenstephaner beers
    A lot of Stone

    There are a lot but those come to mind first

    Allagash White - very nice beer for the style.

    I'm with you. So many people love to suck on SN's %#$* over their Pale Ale, but Liberty is miles better.

    Two Brothers Domaine DuPage
    Jever
    Hop Devil. It's no WC style IPA, but it's damn nice on a cold autumn night
    Fuller's London Porter
    Brooklyn Chocolate Stout
    Brooklyn Pilsner is no slouch either

    anything that costs me 7.99 or 8.99 a sixer I never take for granted.:grinning:
    even my sn porter used to be until just recently 6.99, sad.

    Since I can walk into nearly any good beer store and grab some I tend to take these for granted - they're all excellent beers, though!

    Agreed. I think their Oktoberfestbier is really underrated. I've been drinking the hell out of that stuff during this Indian summer of ours.

    Guinness Foreign Extra is such a good, tasty, available-cheap-in-the-corner-shop beer. Easy to ignore in favour of something more alluring but probably less nice.

    Also Hoegaarden - yeah, I know it's AB-InBev and was no doubt better back in the day. But I had a four-pack over a few days a while ago - a way of drinking which normally exposes a beer's flaws quite well - and that stuff holds up for me.

    Mine would have to be some Lakefront Fixed Gear, great taste easy to drink, and Magic Hat #9, both easy to throw back a bunch of
