So bells is taking over a local pub and since I have never experienced a wide selection of their beers, can you guys who are familiar with them recommend some must-haves?

I have had Two-Hearted, Amber and Kalamazoo.

Double Cream and Porter were my faves when I was brewing there in the 80s

You have to try them ALL of course....silly brewer.

Winter White is worth trying if you like wits. You have to try Hopslam at least once a year, and I really love Hell Hath No Fury (and any other of their strong/old ales and Barleywines.)

Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman

I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew

I am not a huge wit fan, but I highly respect the style. And I am definitely going to attempt to try them all, but depending on how they fix the pricing this may of may not be practical for me!

So my plan is to go in with a priority list and your suggestions are what will form that list.

Thank you for the suggestions!

As it stands right now, my first three priorities are:
Hell Hath No furry
Double cream stout
Hopslam

I should get a good, diverse raid on my pallete by starting with these three!

See if they offer 4oz or 8oz drafts. Last take over I attended the bar did half sizes, except for Hopslam which was from the bottle. If you're going to try hopslam, do it at the end or you can say good bye taste buds.

I like their Best Brown... IMHO, avoid Java Stout unless you like a beer that smells and tastes like a Starbucks dumpster...

One of my favorites is Expedition Stout but I'm not sure if it is in season. Looking at their up-to-date tap cam it is not listed.

You gotta try HOPSLAM.

I really love Best Brown, and although I don't drink coffee their Java Stout is tasty.
