    Yeah.. i suppose Drakes can compete with the H24 or GF. I haven't had as many Drakes brews as I did with these two. The only ones I've had were Dark Feather, Jolly Rodger '12, Hopocalpse (the regular one), and Aroma Coma and the AC was the only one that was noteworthy.

    The way I see it, anything ranked 11 or below on my list is debatable.

    Really solid list. I'd probably have a hard time even naming 20. Hard to argue with the that top 5 especially. I'm also a big fan of Backlash. Newburport Brewing Co is pretty solid too.

    I would replace figure 8 with crown. First and last time I had figure 8 it was pretty nasty. Unless things have improved? Flat 12 does a really good job I enjoy Half cycle.

    This year's Aroma Coma and Aroma Prieta are top notch. Try their pale ale if you haven't, the 1500. It's solid. Their other standout, imho, is their porter Black Robusto. I never really cared for their IIPAs like Denogginizer or Hopocolpse, nor did I find their imperial stout to be memorable.
