Dude, you have one right in your back yard. The absolute best RIS I've ever had is the current seasonal from St. George's. I'm drinking one now.

I have to agree. One of the most memorable beers I have ever had was St. George's Winter Stout. Amazing stuff. Unfortunately I can't get it here and so I drink Old Rasp, Yeti, Stone and any other light sucking RIS I can get my hands on.

Oskar Blues -Ten Fidy is another fabulous RIS!
One of the best beers you'll ever pour out of a can.

I am impressed with Oskar Blues. I like Dale's and I love Old Chub. I'm going to keep my eyes open for this one. I probably won't be able to get it here.
 
Dogfishhead WORLD WIDE STOUT!
Hoppin' Frog BORIS the Crusher
Stone RIS
Old Rasputin

the dogfishhead is sooooooooooooooooo good
 
Expedition, without a doubt...I always keep some around.

Other good ones are Blackout, Dark Lord, Stone(depending on the year), and Yeti.
 
I had some Left Hand Imperial stout a couple nights ago. Wasn't overly impressed. 10% alcohol and the alcohol seemed to be the dominant factor in the beer. It had a bit of chocolate flavor, but was lacking anything else.
