    LOL. You've made a list of beers completely unavailable in Texas.

    FWIW: Oskar Blues Ten FIDY

    I haven't gotten to try a few of the BCBS variants, but of the rest, it's a toss up between Kate and Choc Rain. Since I can only pick one, I'll give it to CR though, since I have a feeling Kate's gonna get a lot more love on here.

    I may sound like a bit of a homer, but Darkness tends to be slightly different every year, and the 2012 release may be the best RIS I have ever had.

    Out of the list I voted BCBS.... BUT my favorite RIS is The Abyss hands down

    You left out Eclipse. Lots of good variants to choose from each year too.

    I find it interesting there is a mix of RIS's and BA RIS's. I think very few people will vote for Dark Lord, but if you were to ask people about the BA versions you might find a different response.

    I said Parabola. You left out Abyss, though. And I have some BT but I have yet to try it. None of the others are available in my area so I haven't tried them, so my vote is a little skewed. However, I put Parabola in my Top 3 Stouts and Top 10 Beers, so it'd probably still win.
