    My Top 5 as of today.

    1. Crimson Snapper by Pipeworks
    2. Bourbon County Proprietors (2014) by Goose Island
    3. BA Jones Dog by Pipeworks
    4. Abrasive by Surly
    5. Madagascar by 4 Hands

    Zombie Dust used to be in there. Although it's still good, it just doesn't seem the same as it used to be.
