I'm on this kick for trying out new beers and thought this would be a good thread start and see what others like. I'm not talking about the typical US domestic swill here. I'll start off with some of my favorites.
Young's Double Chocolate Stout.
This is a pretty good dark beer that was in my top 3 list for a few years now until recently.
Crooked Line Oak Jacked Pumpkin Ale.
I love pumpkin anything (bread, muffins, pies, you name it) and have long looked forward to a good pumpkin ale when fall rolls around. I first discovered this a few months ago and it is one of the tastiest pumpkin ales ever made. It has a strong taste of honey to it and is aged in oak barrels. which adds to the flavor. It's truly amazing.
New Belgium Imperial Coffee Stout
I first tried this a few months ago also on the recommendation of a co-worker. I'd already developed a taste for coffee stouts, thanks to one that Sam Adams put out a couple years ago, and to another by Kona Brewing. This one makes those look like tap water.
Hoppin' Frog B.O.R.I.S. The Crusher Oatmeal Imperial Stout
This is currently my favorite. By far. No contest at all. I like oatmeal stouts (Sam Smith comes to mind) but this is a whole new level of deliciousness. It's aged in whiskey barrels, and you can taste the hint of whiskey in this beer. I HIGHLY recommend it. It has won a couple awards, and it totally deserved them.
Uinta Dubhe
This is a dark IPA brewed with hemp seed. I don't normally like bitter beers, but this one is pretty good once you get past that.
