    Shit, I forgot about that one! I had it on cask recently...whatever level beyond World Class is...that's what Ipswich Oatmeal Stout on cask is.

    I like this thread much more. :slight_smile:

    Tough one. If I had to narrow it down to just three, I think everything I might list has already been mentioned.

    DFH 90 minute - still a great, fantastic brew. I drink it semi-regularly on tap. 9% and pretty unique.
    AleSmith IPA - I just tried this for the first time (fresh) not that long ago, and it blew me away. If fresh, an amazing IPA.
    Westmalle (especially Tripel) - the Tripel originator, after all. Then again, Belgians in general see very little play on WBAYDN.

    I don't know if I agree with your #1. I see Speedway not infrequently (and now that I get it in CT, I post it from time-to-time). I have seen many folks, including one just the other day, mention how it is one of their benchmark stouts.

    But it's possible that it still doesn't get the love it deserves.

    Hop Devil...... One if the kegs at my wedding a few months after Victory opened. Still buy this a few times a year.

    Corsendonk brown. This was a treat for me back in the day. Not had one in years.

    Yards tavern porter..... Another staple back in the day. I remember it was $24 a case. Again not had one in many moons.

    Have to go buy these and see if they hold up or it's just memories.

    Enjoy

    -Boston lager, still a solid beer. Great in the cooler months, maybe not forgotten fully but many people moved on from it, and if those people revisit it, im sure theyll still think it holds its own

    -Smuttynose Finestkind IPA, one of the best ive had

    -Dogfish Head Indian Brown, great beer, but brown ales are never spoken of


    (The biggest of all had to separate it from the rest)

    GUINNESS- so unique even still compared to whats out now besides Murphys. Dry, cool, actually light because of an odd mouthfeel thats thin but still heavy. Shame. So distinctive you could tell blind folded
