I've been looking for those for a long time. Right now my favorites are:

Stone Imperial Russian, IPA, Ruination IPA, 12th Anniversary, and 13th Anniversary
Green Flash West Coast IPA and Imperial IPA
Rogue Chocolate Stout
Bear Republic Racer 5 and Hop Rod
Also a fan of many of the Southern Tier beers.

O'Fallon Pumpkin Ale. Well, let me qualify that. The Pumpkin ale from 3 years ago. The last two years it has not been as good.

O'Fallon Brewing Company is located just outside of St. Louis. They make a few beers all year (Wheat, Gold, IPA, Smoky Porter). But they make a bear for every season. The spring beer escapes me right now but the summer is Wheach (wheat Peach) that is great. The Pumpkin Ale in the fall, and a Cherry Chocolate in the winter. The Cherry Chocolate is great but more than one is rough.

Stuff I have been enjoying lately is Chimay. A character in a Ludlum book was drinking one and I saw it in a pub and love the stuff. I have not had the version in the pic above. I just had the ale with has a maroon label.

The Stout from Jamesport brewing in Ludington Michigan is great. I enjoyed a growler of that over a couple of days a few weeks ago. Although their Apricot Wheat, which is normally outstanding, was the suck this year.

ETA: my new fave "New American Light Lager" is the new old Schlitz. Seriously. They brought back the formula and brewing method they changed in the early 70's Prior to changing the method and formula they had been one of the top 5 brewers in the country for about 70 years. Now they are a laughing stock. It's still in the class of Bud, Miller, Coors, but it's at the head of the class....
