Thank you for finally posting Crank Yanker!!! Anything by Eddyline is amazing, but Crank Yanker
Is my all time favorite beer. Closely followed by Breck's small batch 471 IPA. Eddyline's River Runners Pale Ale, Innerglow Red Chile Porter, and Pumpkin Patch are all killer as well. Outside of Eddyline... Dillon Dam's Dam Straight lager is great, and the Lucky U from Breck does in a pinch!

I'm in complete agreement with mtree. Actually I have always liked Coor's Light, but now that they sell Fat Tire here in FL, I have started drinking that a lot.

That and O'Dells IPA are about my favorite to drink.

Would it be too Pedestrian to just say my favorite is Great Divide IPA on some days and O'dells' Five Barrel on others. I realize these aren't fro-fro breweries, but I really like them.

I've developed a taste for session IPA's lately. Sometimes it's nice to drink a few beers and still be able to stand up. This is the best one yet.

I just tried these last night - pretty impressed. And yeah, it was nice to have a few and not feel like s**t this morning.

Also looking forward to Odell adding the Loose Leaf to their standard year-round selection of six-pack brews. Not sure how it ranks on the IBU scale, but it's Odell's so there's really no way it sucks.

Despite the ski-centric theme, I was a little let down with Deschutes "Chasing Freshies" offering.

They have, however, redeemed themselves.

Dayum!!!!
