    I would say Almanac Farmer's Reserve #1. It is the lowest ranked of the 4, but easily my favorite. Don't get me wrong they are all very good, but I thin people only caught on once #2 came out, and #3 is the one that really blew up in terms of popularity.

    Pale 31. Why do double IPA's have to consistently score higher than pale ales? I believe Pale 31 is better than Double Jack, and is not nearly as highly regarded.

    three come to mind...

    Saranac Black and Tan
    Granted, not the best beer ever, but for a black and tan in a bottle for 6.99 a 6 it's amazing. Matt Brewings best imo.

    Magnum PA
    The Terminal Brewery in CHattanooga tn has some good and some bad, but they nailed this west coast IPA.

    Carolina Blond
    Best lawnmower beer you've never heard of...

    Straight to Ale Monkeynaut IPA. Probably underrated due to very limited distribution in a part of the country that is not known for craft beer, but I absolutely love it. Great bitter and floral character, I seek it out every time I'm in Northern Alabama.

    Lol legendary; it's almost as over-hyped as PtE which is quite an accomplishment. Anyways give me an Abrasive any day.

    Laurelwood Megafauna.

    I friend brought a bottle back for me from Bend. Holy crap, it was fantastic.

    I would love to be able to get my hands on that on a regular basis.

    Greenbush Brother Benjamin. I think it's very similar to hopslam when having it on tap at the pub or taking fresh bottles home. Really a great DIPA

    I was just coming on here to start a thread saying that this is one of the most underrated beers out there.

    with a little bit of age on it, it's beautiful.

    Widmer Brothers Alchemy Ale rated an 81. Had it on tap at Epcot's Food & Wine today and it was an awesome surprise.

    I had Eagle Rock Yearling the other day. A local sour. It was pretty tasty, and the ratings here are so-so.

    I have not had the Alchemy, but will miss the beer it replaced, Drifter Pale Ale. Drifter was something of a classic. I still don't understand why Widmer would replace their 2nd most popular beer with one that, based on the hop profile, seems less complex.

    Cismontane TJ Slough has a 79. It's one of my faves and shocking it is that low. Had a beer tasting with a lot of rare stuff and it was the fave of the evening
