    I almost forgot about Arrogant Bastard. I'm not even sure if it's that good, but I almost always have some, and that damn beer is like a drug. Once I have 1 I keep wanting more.

    In Connecticut: Sea Hag, Supernaut, Elm City Pilsner, or House Lager
    In Maine: Lunch, Another One, or SN Pale Ale.
    In Florida: Jai Alai, Tampa-Style Lager, or Calusa's Zote

    That's a lot of "old reliables".... I guess if I had to cut them down to one for each place I spend time in, it would have to be: Sea Hag, Lunch, and Jai Alai.

    Does Sly Fox still use the cans where the tops pull completely off for the Helles? I always thought that was a cool feature.

    Yes, but not in every state due to state litter laws. Funny thing, I bought 2 twelve packs in PA over the last month and I got 1 of each.

    Jack's Abby House Lager- They have been expanding their distribution recently I think. If you see it, definitely pick up some. If you are a fan of lagers. I feel like I should be getting some kickbacks from the brewery at this point because I sing praises about this beer whenever I get the chance. Great Beer, Brewery, and People

    It really depends on the season but I'd have to say Dale's Pale Ale from Oskar Blues.
    Hits all the yum spots.
    Runner up is Yuengling Black n Tan.
    Cheap-ish, flavorful and crushable.

    Troegs Hopback...I just don’t get tired of it. I’m a bit of an amber ****.

    Yuengling lager or black & tan when the situation dictates.
