    Local and fresh. Peekskill Brewery's Lower, Eastern or Higher standard. Always fresh, always delicious. I just wish they were closer than the already close 40 mins away.

    That's not a fair question to ask to a San Diegan. If I have to limit it to just two, I'll go with Ballast Point Sculpin (readily available) and Alpine Beer Company Nelson (special treat).

    As far as I'm concerned, it's always time for Lunch

    But since that isn't always around, I'd go for a Titan...

    I know what you mean by fresh as in a few days old. I was at Total Wine the other day and it was dated the day before I purchased it.

    Assuming that availability is key and being able to drive to the brewery when the apocalypse begins:

    Summit Saga
    Surly Furious

    Can be picked up at almost all liquor stores also.

    Yes, I've had some that I think are a bit better, but this one (along with Racer 5) has something about it that could make me drink this daily.

    Like ... Sculpin. That's a great beer. I just find it to have too much of a peach flavor for me to drink as often as Two Hearted ... or Racer 5. Or some others.
