    Prima Pils and Edmund Fitzgerald. Two of my absolute favorites that I always assume will be around because I live between both breweries. Those are beers where, if they stopped production, I wouldn't know what to turn to. Well, there are other good pilsners made in PA, so that's not totally true. There just isn't a substitute for Edmund Fitzgerald, though. I like other porters, but that beer pretty much defines liquid happiness.

    Didn't think I'd miss DFH that much, but I could really go for an Aprihop right about now...

    Hard to say. I've definitely grown accustomed to having Old Rasputin in my beer store every autumn. I think the other beers I really take for granted are Anchor Liberty Ale, Fuller's ESB, and the Rochefort. If these beers suddenly went away, I'd almost have to stop drinking beer.

    I'm going with SNPA because it is the one craft beer that is available anywhere I go. It is a great brew and the perfect safety valve. Pubs and bars that eschew crafts usually keep some bottles of SNPA. Many, many times I've looked at the bottle display of all the 'same olds' and then noticed a SNPA pushed back or aside. Just in time to save the day.

    Surly Furious and Bell's Two Hearted. Most places I go have one or both on tap.

    Orval. It's great fresh, it's great aged, it's always on the shelves at every decent bottle shop, and it is reasonably priced for being one of the best Trappist ales there is.

    Locally: Two Hearted. Flat out one of the best IPA's around, and I find myself slightly bummed at times when it's the best thing on a draft list. Talk about spoiled....

    Probably Dreadnaught. I constantly have fresh Dreadnaught at my finger tips yet always buy something new instead.
