    No, I haven't.

    I take it from your post that you recommend this beer?

    I have been hesitating to buy this beers because for the most part I am a fan of 'traditional' Pilsners; Pilsners brewed with noble hops.

    Cheers!

    Nearly identical, but I'd have to shoehorn FIS into this list.

    This is a tough response, since Founders is my favorite brewery.

    CBS - Even though I've only had it on tap (for now...)
    KBS
    Breakfast Stout - Fresh, though. For me, it doesn't hold up after 3-4 months.
    Mosaic Promise - Great SMASH IPA
    Palm Reader - Great Pale Ale.

    My honorable mentions list is very long. I could probably put another 5 distributed and many more taproom-onlys on a favorite list.

    Honorable mention to PC Pils and All Day IPA. I also really enjoyed the Red Rye IPA when I had it about a year ago, but I haven't seen it on tap anywhere since then.
