Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
I've come to the conclusion that I have a blanket dislike of all nitro beers. No idea why.
I liked the ST Creme Br?l?e (ty chrome for the automatic faggot marks on the word) and I liked the ST 2X Stout

Left Hand's offering is one of the best Milk Stouts you can get. But the best one I have ever had is the Mackeson XXX (no, not Molson you heathens). Unfortunately this is no longer available (It was brewed specifically for the US market and no longer exists)

Old Rasputin is one of those beers that is GREAT for people just getting into craft beer. You can taste so many different things in it. It really shows the drinker what is possible when it comes to different tastes in one beer.
Chocolate Oak Aged Yeti was great.
Terrapin Dos Cocoas was a huge let down for me though.

I'm not sure that I've even tried 5 different chocolate beers.
However, if you like that sort of thing keep an eye our for Boulevard's Chocolate Ale. They're bringing it back this year and it's pretty good, and very unique. It's a lager, not a thicker stout or porter, but still has a pretty potent chocolate flavoring. It's also ~9% ABV, it'll jack you up. It's definitely worth a try if you have access to boulevard products where you live (they're in about 30 states now)

They'll get a shitload at four firkins or zipp's. It's not hard to find around here.

The problem is, you can get Pumking in about 2/3 of the country. Looks like Cigar City brewing is only available in 1 city basically. So Pumpking is probably the best one that 99% of the people on this board have access to.
That seems to be the case with a lot of beers. Your local mom & pop restaurant and brewery may make some awesome shit, but nobody has access to it. The hard part is making a beer in huge quantities that you can widely distribute and it still holds up on quality.

Shafly is better than pumking, pumking tastes like cough syrup.
Also, cigar city is all of Florida, New York, and I think Philly. They are continuing to branch out.
