    Smuttynose IPA & seasonals. Usually on sale once/month at a grocery store chain in NH for $10.99 per 12 pack (once in a blue moon will go for $9.99) - quite a deal for someone in MA who's used to some of the highest beer prices in the US.

    Hop Stoopid. It would be my favorite DIPA...if I'd never popped a Heady

    Sierra Nevada Tumbler and Celebration, I haven't read the entire thread so I'm sure these have been mentioned but I love these beers.

    Stopped at the Columbus Brewing Company with a couple of friends while traveling I-71 this spring. That's a standout IPA. (Looking forward to the Celebration release too).

    I've waken up in my neighbors front yard once. The last thing I remember drinking that night was a Steel Reserve.

    When feeling thrifty I usually reach for Berkshire Brewing Company. At only $4/bomber they are probably the best value in Eastern MA.

    Lately it's been Founders six packs for $7.99, but normally Sierra Nevada is the ticket.

    There is one random hick BMC heavy store in my town in Northeastern CT that sells bombers for less that I paid when I lived within a half hour of the brewery. They charge like $3.19 or something for all their regulars. I think I'm the only one buying it :stuck_out_tongue:

    I had one for the first time last night in their mixed sixes offering. I was interested in trying an English style Pale Ale. At first, I found the taste a little different than I expected, but it quickly grew on me. I will look for this one again as a stand alone.

    SNPA for 12-13 bucks a twelve pack. I don't buy it much at all, but it's the best bargain beer out there for the money.

    Abita usually runs a little cheaper than other craft brewers, and I think Jockamo is fantastic, but I'm apparently in the minority.
