Your beer staples

As a broke college kid, I pretty much live 6 pack to 6 pack. Out of the beers I buy the most though:
Great Lakes Edmund Fitz
Lagunitas lil sumpin sumpin ale
Fat Heads Head Hunter (when I see it)
Gumball head or zombie dust (if available)
Founders Imperial Stout (my favorite beer lately)
West Sixth IPA (gotta support the locals)

 

I have 44 cubic feet of chest freezer beer cellar space, what's this running out of beer thing you guys speak of??

Bruery beers is my answer, lots and lots of Bruery beers...

 

Sculpin
Nugget Nectar (when in season)
Prima Pils
Dirt Wolf
Stone IPA
Heineken (for the father-in-law)

 

Two Hearted - in cans!
Old Rasputin
Weihenstephaner Kristallweissbier (sp?)
Orval
Leinenkugel Shandies - in cans! (until it loses it's throne to another lawn mower beer!!!)
Sneaky Pete

 

Fat Head's Head Hunter

That is all.

 

I homebrew A LOT and always have a couple of kegs of IPAs in the fridge, along with either a stout or a seasonal keg and many times a 3rd keg of a DIPA/IIPA. In bottles, I keep a couple of different Brett DIPAs on hand, along with a Brett Saison, a wild yeast saison, 3 different Meads (usually 13.5%, 8.3% & 6.2%) and another sour/lacto beer...all homebrewed of course.

I brew 99% of what I drink and only buy a few bottles every few months just to try something new. There is really nothing I could get nearby that I would always keep around except maybe Westbrook IPA and any of the Wicked Weed sours, but I'd much rather brew my own (cheaper, better and exactly what I want).

 

Here in south central PA I have been stocking cases of Liquid Hero Irregardless IPA recently. When I get down to my last six pack I re-up. This is an unfiltered, soft orange color with a thick citra nose. After pouring the ale out of the can you can see a layer of cream colored residue at the bottom of the can. A beautiful "old world" styled ale that I have fallen in love with.

Other regulars that come and go in my fridge would be...

Bell's Two hearted ale
Deschutes Fresh squeezed IPA
Green Flash West coast IPA
and
Victory Hop devil IPA

 

I alway try to have these;

1. New Belgium Ranger
2. Breckenridge Small Batch 471
3 .Sierra Nevada Bigfoot (usually 3 years)
4 .North Coast Old Rasputin
5 .North Coast Brother T
6. Ommagang Three Philosophers (usually 3 years)
7. Hoegaarden
8 .Abita Andygator
9. Breckenridge Vanilla Porter
10 .Youngs Double Chocolate Stout
11. Something from Founders
12. Something from Bells
13. Oscar Blues Tenfidy
14. Sam Adams Octoberfest (when in season)
15. Something from Firestone Walker
16. Bud Light (for my non craft friends)

I usually have about that many or more rotators too! Oh yeah, I'm married but have my own fridge.

 

Lately, I've been trading a lot and getting beers (mostly IPA's) that I can't get in GA. When I'm not doing that the normal rotation of beers in the fridge:

Stone IPA
Little Sumpin Sumpin
Sculpin or Grapefruit Sculpin
Sweetwater IPA or Hop Hash
Tropicalia now that it's in Atlanta
Two Hearted
Transmigration of Souls

Right now the list of stuff in my fridge (the 2nd fridge) is great and my wife has had about enough. Time for me to focus on emptying some of the stash instead of bringing in so much new stuff.

 

I always keep quite a bit of Coors Banquet in my fridge, especially this time of year (it's a great lawnmower beer). Other than that, it's more of a mood thing for me

 

Off Color Troublesome (probably the 6 pack I have purchased most in the last 2 years)
Two Brothers Night Cat
Lagunitas A Lil Sumpin Sumpin
Anchor Old Foghorn
North Coast Old Stock Ale
Lagunitas Bombers
Founders All Day IPA
Finch's Hardcore Chimera
Revolution Anti Hero
Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro

 

My beer staples include top rated IPA/DIPAs and all sorts of highly rated stouts and barley wines.

 

Stone IPA
Bell's Two Hearted Ale
Sculpin
Sixpoint Resin
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and/or Torpedo
Samuel Adams Boston Lager

 

Hoppy FFF 6 packs
Hoppy Half Acre 4 Packs
Anti-Hero/Fist City
Sculpin
Spiteful IPA


pretty much always one of those in my fridge, currently Yum Yum and Alpha King

 

Founders All day IPA - Troegs Hop Back - Victory Hop Devil - Crickethill BBA Porter.

 

Anything from Lagunitas. It seems like there's something good from them available in every packy I go into.

 

Not any beer in particular, but I pretty much always have something from New Glarus in my fridge due to proximity. Unless I'm going out to get a seasonal or special release, I don't really ever set out knowing what I'm going to get because there’s so many yet I need to try. I will say though with Surly distro (hopefully) right around the corner Furious is going to be a permanent fixture in my fridge.

 

Founders Imperial Stout, New Holland Dragons Milk Bourbon Barrel Stout, Ballast Point Sculpin, just to name a few. I tend to keep about 15 different types in my fridge at all times also. Not a bachelor (Married with 2 kids).

 

I don't have staples. I try to drink a new beer every beer.
