What region are you in?
I'm in the DC area. I'm lucky that I live within 15 minutes of half a dozen breweries, so I've always got good, fresh beers at hand.

I worded my post poorly. It's not that I don't know what good beers to try or how to find suggestions. It's that I am enjoying trying beers that I'd otherwise never even give a second look because I'm focused on the ones I've seen suggested online, word of mouth, or whatever. That Nordic jam elderberry lager is a good example. I don't usually drink lagers, and especially not elderberry flavored ones. If I'd seen that suggested by someone--even if it was super highly recommended--I probably would have ignored it since it isn't my style.

I finally got around to opening my second bottle of 8 Maids. So smooth and tasty, I could drink it year round.

Yeah our Walmart has shit choices for actual craft beer. Lowe’s Food and Publix here have a really good selection, and lots of local breweries represented at better prices anyway.

I thought it was laughable they even had a section labeled for craft beer at all, and then they shove the seltzer crap in there on top of it. lol

I hate this seltzer BS, it's fine for women, if I see a man drinking one, that is not a man. Just had Stone's 25 anniversary Triple IPA 12.5 ABV and 100 IBU's a complete pallet destroying IPA.

I’ve had a couple seltzer’s that were fine, they aren’t the zero carb/calorie ones though. I say drink what you like, life’s too short.

Ill take a nice gose or dry hopped lager if I want something refreshing with alcohol.
