Lagunitas Pils
Best pilsner I've had, besides Prima Pils.

And just a general note about Lagunitas, they are VERY underated. I actually really like most of their beers.

They tapped the cask at 6pm, we got there at 6:30, ordered our first, and by 7:15 or so, when we thought about another, we were told it was tapped out. so about an hour, or even less.

My favorite Barleywine so far.It is hoppy but not over hoppy like Bigfoot and every sip makes me smile. Oh and i should mention this bottle is from last year and has only gotten better with age

Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale.
I've never had it before.
Not overly bitter.
Tastes like it has a ton of late additions and is moderately dry hopped.
Great hop balance, The Red underneath still comes through nicely.

Went to downtown Buffalo to Pearl Street Brewery and had their Powder Keg Winterfest Ale, Street Brawler oatmeal stout, and Sabres Edge Double IPA. All Fantastic

Drank the bottle of Southern Tier Choklat with a friend tonight. It was good, but I don't think I would get it again. Very good dark chocolate flavors, but it was one dimensional.

I have been on a freakin' mad hunt trying to get this beer. Turns out my area has had problems getting it for some reason? Hopefully the next week or two one of my stores gets it in.
