I'd just try the ones on draught, or see if they'll make you a flight if you want to keep consumption down.
Bottles are nothing special.

Agreed. Looks like some of the stuff is only available in the western/northwestern states. Hornsby's cider-meh.

I love the deschuttes. I don't know the MT brews, but my uncle lives in Helena so I can try to remember to get the downlow on them. Morels might still be in season if it is early July

I've never met an IPA I didn't like. I'd start with that.

I'm my short time on this planet, I have come to the conclusion that the stupider the name of the beer, the worse it's going to taste.
Id never order that beer
