What say ye?
From Homebrew Society email thing I get, so it should have some credence. My preference would be Pliny the Younger, surprised to see 90 Minute to some degree, never heard or had Bells but should likely do something about that, surprised Zombie Dust is new, and too many IPAs.
With, literally, thousands of commercial beers to choose from, it's difficult to really choose the best. Every year, though, the AHA and Zymurgy magazine take on the task.
This year's results are in, and of the 6,000 different brews submitted, here are the top ten (last year's position is in parenthesis):
1. Russian River Pliny the Elder (1)
2. Bell's Two Hearted Ale (2)
3. Ballast Point Sculpin IPA (3)
4. Stone Enjoy By IPA (8)
9. Founders Breakfast Stout (9)
6. The Alchemist Heady Topper (5)
7. Bell's Hopslam (4)
8. Three Floyds Zombie Dust (new)
9. Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA (7)
10. Firestone Walker Wookey Jack (new)
Two of last year's Top Ten that didn't make the list this year were Lagunitas Sucks, which was #6 last year and dropped to #45 this year, and Good Island Bourbon County Brand Stout, last year's #10 didn't even make the list top fifty this year.
Also interesting to note... Pliny the Elder has taken the top spot for the past seven years!
