    Founders Red Rye PA or Bitter American? And I can not buy single bottles.

    In the end I would buy whichever one is the freshest. But if they're both reasonably fresh I'd go Red's Rye all day.

    I'd go with the Founders, but I can't say the same for these White Devils.

    How many do you want to drink in one sitting?

    If a couple, go with the Founders. If more, go with the Bitter American.

    I haven't had Bitter American, which is why i'd go with that.

    I'd go with the Founders though.

    Definitely Founders. If you opt for Bitter American, check the date. It's awesome fresh, but those hops not only fade with time, but the taste gets pretty dang awful in my experience. as such, i have 2 cans in my fridge and I plan to offer them up to folk who don't give a fuck
