The Top 10 Greatest Beers I Ever Drank

Ok so after my last engaging post about the lack of half & half in the house (we are now good on half & half, I continue to enjoy coffee, and I've learned to stop complaining about inane details of life...well at least in written form) I thought I'd ease my back into the blogosphere with a good ol' list of the best beers I ever drank. For it is Friday, 3:37 PM, at the office...so this just "popped in there".

Best beers in no particular order...just too complicated a thing to figure out right now, get in touch with me if you want to split hairs over this.

1.Victory Prima Pils

Great, hoppy pilsner from Victory. Perfect Summer session beer.









2.Russian River Pliny the Elder

Killer IPA from Russian River. I've only had it a few times since it's near impossible to find in most states.






3.Founders Breakfast Stout

Great stout from Founders.









4.Russian River Beatification

Another rare Russian River brew (at least on the East Coast). Sour, funky, but ridiculously drinkable.











5.Old Rasputin

Really strong Russian Imperial Stout from North Coast Brewing. Boozy, but in a good way.










6.Jolly Pumpkin Oro de Calabaza

Peppery, spicy, slightly sour saison-style from Jolly Pumpkin.








7.Dogfish Head Bitches Brew

Imperial stout with all sorts of crazy ingredients.









8.Bell's Two Hearted Ale

Another great IPA. Good mix of alcohol and aromatic hops.












9.Cantillon Classic Geuze


Only had this once at Monk's in Philadelphia, but it really stuck with me. Authentic Belgian funk.









10.Dock St. Man Full of Trouble Porter

Still the best porter I ever drank. Slight root beer flavor goes great with Dock St. pizza.
