    Some of my favs (in no particular order)...

    Storm King
    John Courage RIS
    BCBS (preferably on tap and with 1-2 years on it)
    Black Sheep's RIS also grew on me quite a bit
    Boulevard's (accidentally-Brett-infected) Imperial Stout (2011 vintage, I believe?) Man that was great!


    That being said, I have both an Abyss and Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout in my cellar waiting to be busted out, and I've never tried either of those

    Totally agree on the Narwhal. It deserves a higher rating.
