    "...easy to find, cheap, great tasting, and maybe most important drinkable":

    Sam Adams Boston Lager and Goose Island Honker's Ale fit these criteria perfectly.

    I was thinking same thing but wish I could get it fresher than I can now.

    All Day IPA is a solid choice but in my market of NE Ohio, Head Hunter gets the nod. :wink:

    I'd pick Summer Love from Victory if it wasn't a seasonal. :slight_frown:


    If I had to pick a beer for this, I'd probably go with Troegs HopBack Amber Ale. Affordable, easy to find (I only live about 35 mins from the brewery), moderate IBU (55), and only 6% abv.

    Plus awesome flavors.

    DFH 60 min is usually my go-to.

    Jack's Abby Hoponius Union - fantastic beer and very affordable.

    Great Lakes Elliot Ness or Burning River, if I'm going for beer from the state I live in.
    Oberon (if it weren't seasonal), Mad Hatter, or All Day if I'm going for beer from the state I come from. And if they ever begin bottling or canning, (but for now I'll live with a growler), I'd go with Original Gravity (Milan, MI) 2 Wheeler, High Five IPA, and Porter.

    If it weren't for price I'd love to have Schlenkerla Helles Lagerbier as my everyday beer. As it is I would have to say HackerPschorr Munich Gold falls into that range for me.

    Founders All Day doesn't do it for me anymore. I loved the first one out, but by the end of the sixer it seemed too one-dimensional. Maybe the hops fell off of the proverbial cliff within that week :wink:.

    Dales has always been my beer of choice to take to Nascar races. It was nice to see they had a booth at the Charlotte race. At home I lean towards Jai Alai or Tocabaga also enjoy the Two Hearted and Racer 5 great beers to kick back with at a BBQ.

    Daisy Cutter, but alas I dont live where I can get this on the regular.


    standard Rodenbach works pretty well for this too.

    It's Arrogant Bastard for me. It's cheap for the quality (down to 3.99 at food lion), and I have no problem drinking one every day.

    Since the hockey finals have been on, I've basically been buying a 4 pack of Jack's Abby Hoponius Union every other day.

    Wish they'd up it to a sixer, they have a helluva product ala Founder's Breakfast Stout & frankly they can drop Bumbleberry IMHO just to give us 2 more bottles of their flagship beer...

    These have been in the daily rotation mix in between the heavier craft stuff...
