    Palo Santo, 90min., Aprilhop, Squall, 60min. All good stuff. I have a few of the 120's but I'm letting them sit a while before I try them.

    More votes for Bitches Brew, Palo Santo, and Burton

    Though the best DFH beer I've ever had was an '08 Raison D'Extra. One of my biggest beer regrets is not buying more of that when I had the chance.

    1.) Burton Baton
    2.) 120 min.
    3.) Aprihop
    4.) Raison

    Maybe this'll change after I crack my first Worldwide Stout or My Antonia, both currently chillin' in the cellar.

    Wish they would bring back the old recipe and put it in the 750ml.

    I really dig Namaste and 90 Minute. I guess those would be my favorites. Really they brew tons of awesome beers.

    Mine is Raison D'etre with about 8 to 12 months on it. Found this out by accident – forgot I had a whole case down in my basement one time.

    While I like several of their beers, if I pick my favorite it would be Red and White. That one, for me, just works at all levels most all of the time when I have it. It didn't start out as being my favorite, as you can see if you look at my DFH reviews, but it is the one I always buy when I see them and then hold on to one or more for one of those great summer evenings on the porch with good friends and good conversation.

    Palo Santo Marron, WWS, 120 is brilliant as a barleywine (not so much as an IIPA), Red & White, Noble Rot is kinda unusual, Immort Ale, Indian Brown, Burton Baton, and 90 minute is pretty good.

    Had quite a few, but can't get DFH around here anymore. Really like 120, would like to try WWS.

    Out of the stuff I can buy on a regular basis it would have to be Palo Santo. But really my answer is 5+ year old World Wide Stout.

    Haven't really had a DFH I didn't like except for Ta Henket. 90 and 120 are some of my favorites, alongside BB, Namaste, and Old School Barleywine. All in all I am a big fan of DFH brews.

    120 Minute is great but has to be fresh. I've always preferred 60 Minute to 90 Minute. Palo Santo is good, Olde School is always a fine choice. I really really was impressed with Hellhound.

    palo santo is my favorite as well but i didn't get a chance to try much before they pulled distro from indiana. i live 3 blocks from il border but the closest good liquor store in IL is 30 minutes away and they usually only have one or 2 dfh brews

    Totally agree...appreciate the concept, but it was a pretty disappointing beer.
