You guys seem to gravitate towards top shelf brews, but if you're looking for a tasty beer on the cheap Busch's Signature Copper Lager is fucking delicious for the price. Costs a bit more than their low end swill, but you can still pick up a 12 pack for about $10 out the door. Plus it's 5.7%, doesn't taste like ass, and won't leave you with a horrible hangover.

Science moment -- cheap beers often produce stronger hangovers due to sloppy brewing techniques, leaving undesirable fermentation products like acetaldehyde in the final product. After much self-experimentation and research I believe I have acquired the ability to distinguish between beers with high and low levels of acetaldehyde/acetic acid. Busch Signature Copper Lager seems to be leading the pack when it comes to well brewed macro beers.

Boulevard Brewing put out their 2017 release schedule this week
Really looking forward to a few of the new ones. The Scotch on Scotch(Rye on Rye is great), as well as their Milk Stout. interested to see how their Cider and Barleywine turn out. I've sampled the Cider at their brewery and it was pretty good, but they've never released it for sale before.

What's an above average Boulevard to try, that gets west coast distro? I've seen various of the smokestack series, and have tried maybe 3 (not necessarily smokestack). None bad, but nothing stood out enough to remember what it was I tried.

My favorite year-round beer is easily Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale, it comes in 4-pack bottles and the large 750ml bottles as well. It's damn potent, around 9% ABV. Most of the Seasonals are solid, but it looks like only distributed in the midwest(Bobs 47 is amazing, I have a stockpile of it in my house right now)
Their Unfiltered Wheat is good, and was fairly unique when they started making it 20+ years ago, but it's not overly unique in todays beer market. But it still like it a lot.

yeah, searching quick through the thread, I think it was mentioned a few times. Love Traveler's shandys. They seem a cut above all the others I've tried.
Especially, the pumpkin shandy. alot of pumpkin ales, etc, have all sorts of spices, etc, and pumpkin flavoring. Travelers has pumpkin, and tastes like there is actually pumpkin in there, which it does.
Same with the lemon and grapefruits shandy.
I don't know how widespread they are though.

I like that they put the Tasting Room beer in the Sampler Packs... looks like the American Kolsch got good enough reviews. Looking forward to the milk stout.
Thanks for the chart!!
Yeah, Tank 7 is usually the easiest to find which is nice because it's easily in my top 10 favorite beers.
Related- Eager to check out their Barleywine. God, I love barleywine for some reason.

Spotted their Funkier Pumpkin today. It's labeled as a spiced sour ale. It's very different as pumpkin ales go (and sours for that matter). Not so overly sour that you can't taste the spices that you would normally associate with a pumpkin beer. Very noticeable vanilla flavor. I don't normally want any sort of pumpkin beer during warmer weather but I could drink this one at anytime during the summer.
