    Certainly I'd have to call Torpedo a go-to beer for me. The IPA is kind of a go-to style even, as I always have some kind on hand (often Alaskan ones like Twister Creek or Icy Bay when not something from the west coast). Everything else in the cellar is a motley mix which I draw from with fickle variation.

    go to has been Jai Alai for the last year or two but I'm actually starting to get tired of it. I know some BAs may be thinking I can't even get Jai Alai but too much of anything can get old. I may start buying hop hunter regularly. I think it's a pretty solid, reasonably priced IPA.

    Not a lot of choice in Bangkok, but really improving, except that my favorite goto beer of many years has been replaced and that would be:

    Schneider-Weisse Unser Aventinus,

    nowhere to be seen anywhere except at one craft beer bar.

    So, the new goto is:

    Weihenstaphaner Korbinan,

    a really nice beer, but if it were available, I would take the Schneider-Weiss Unser Aventinus over that any day.

    Hard to respond, because now I try to change it up quite a bit. For the longest time, O.G. Ruination was always in my fridge. With the advent of Enjoy By, I just don't buy Ruination 2.0 because I want an Enjoy By instead and I'll wait for it vs. Ruination 2.0.

    But I'll always go with:

    - Little Sumpin Sumpin
    - Space Cake
    - Enjoy By IPA

    Probably Sucks. I refuse to buy any more IPA's until I clean out one fridge (overzealous trip thru Louisiana & Florida, then Oklahoma). So the only thing I allow myself to get is a six pack of sucks every 2 weeks for some change

    I don't have a single go-to, but I'm always going back to something from SN...been drinking on Nooner, Summerfest, Hop Hunter, and Oktoberfest in between some bigger beers. They always have something to please.

    Yuengling lager. I like great beer but don't need to crush a BA stout or sour to enjoy a beer.
