    Has this same survey been done for other popular, large, wide distribution craft breweries, such as Stone?

    What was most interesting to me, is that I thought my top five would be boring and unique. Instead, it's basically the same as everyone else's.

    Founders is probably my favorite brewery, if not def top 3 for sure.

    1) KBS
    2) Devil Dancer (just purchased 30+ bottles last month cause it's retired).
    3) Doom 2017
    4) Backwoods Bastard
    5) Dirty Bastard

    Mine would be in order

    1. Backwoods Bastard
    2. Dirty Bastard
    3. KBS
    4. Centennial
    5. Lizard of Koz

    Sweet Repute might edge out KBS for number 3 if I managed to try it fresh; the two-year keg pour was still quite good. Curmudgeon is far too inconsistent both batch-to-batch and bottle-to-bottle; I've had bottles that taste like a lovable, caramelly English barleywine and bottles that taste like cough syrup. FBS, Dark Penance, and Imperial Stout are fine beers but violate some central tenets of my personal beer ethos (namely, beer should taste more like beer than coffee & lupulin bitterness does not mesh well with acrid roasted flavors).

    I despise Devil Dancer with a white-hot passion.
