    My favorites at the moment, which are sure to change:
    -Pliny the Elder (have had the pleasure to try this five times, always excellent)
    -Fat head's Hop Juju (always drink a ton of this when it's out)
    -Jackie O's Rum BA Oil of Aphrodite (I hoard up on this whenever possible)
    -Firestone Walker Double Jack (someone needs to send me more, ANYTHING FW will do, actually)
    -Brew Kettle's White Rajah (phenomenal IPA that will hopefully someday get it's due)
    Honorable mentions-most anything Allagash, Cigar City, Russian River sours, New Glarus. The only reason they are not favs is because I haven't had enough of any of them. I should mention 3 Floyd's here as well, even though I think their beers are a bit overrated.
    Ask this again in the Fall, Big Bad Baptist will be my #1
    P.S. I almost forgot Le Fin Due Monde, THE best trippel imho

    Going off my ratings, my top 5 are:

    3F Cimmerian Sabertooth Berzerker
    3F Blot Out the Sun
    Epic Big Bad Baptist
    Founders Breakfast Stout
    Country Boy Sinkhole Stout

    I'd say that still holds pretty true. I'd like to revisit BOtS, as it was one of my first imperial stouts, but the rest one that list are as good as it gets (for me...so far).

    I also really loved Jester King Ol' Oi!, incase anyone couldn't tell.

    At this very moment (and will definitely change):

    Second Fiddle
    PtE (excluding PtY as I've only had it twice)
    Alpine Nelson
    Victory at Sea
    Speedway Stout

    I tried to limit this to beers I've had at least consistently (as opposed to amazing samplers at festivals).

    What makes this ridiculous? I can find zero correlation between a quarterly change in preference and a top 5 beers of all time. I can name my five favorite movies and songs, but that doesn't mean I watch or listen to them every day - or even every quarter. Beer is no different to me; but if it is to you, perhaps you should save the snarky comment and avoid the thread entirely, as you've offered literally nothing to the conversation.

    Mine:

    Sip of Sunshine
    Zombie Dust
    King Sue
    Founders Breakfast Stout
    BCBCS
