[NorJerseyHomebro]

1) Dogfish head 120min IPA vintaged at least 3 years love that sherry hoppy syrupy goodness. There was a store that had this back in jersey so cheap. 3$ a bottle or something. Makes me wanna cry.
2) Brooklyn black chocolate stout vintaged/Rochefort 10 I had the brooklyn chocolate stout at Monk's in Philadelphia, vintage '06 I think? It was around new years last year. Incredibly memorable. It tasted so much more intense then the bottled version. I almost cried while drinking it, it was such a beautiful experience.
3) Southern tier imperial oat. Outstanding purity of flavor. I was thinking they had lost their minds putting the word imperial before everything that they had brewed. but it is some serious shnit. Best Oat based stout ever.
