Opinion on great beers
I am new to the game of enjoying great beer, I am a huge fan of Dark beers and the abbey ales. Personally I have yet to find a smoked porter I didnt enjoy, also love a good stout. The last brew I enjoyed was a Treppist Abbey Ale and it was amazing! So I want your insight on what my next purchase should be or what you think I shouldn't miss out on down my adventurous road.

Being in the Northwest I assume you've tried Anchor Steam Porter, Jesse?

I would try a bunch of different Porters and Imperials. Not to familiar with beers in your area but I will keep my eyes out.

Re: Opinion on great beers
When I was living in WA, I used to drink lots of Black Butte Porter from Deschutes Brewery in Bend, Or. Rogue's Shakespeare Stout and Mocha Porter are pretty good too. They are also out of Oregon. New Belgium Brewery in Colorado makes a good abbey ale as I recall and is available in your area. If you're in Seattle, the brewery at Pikes Place has some good dark beers too.

Re: Opinion on great beers
I have had all of those except the IPA and loves all of them. The DC porter was awesome with a DPG Blue Lancero

Re: Opinion on great beers
First, start brewing your own. It's sooooo much better than most beers. Try a hoppy beer (Pale ales) and a Non Hoppy (hefewiezen) start from there and brew brew brew. sadly you'll realize how poorly cared for much bottle beer is but rejoice because you'll have a new appreciation for beer!
Also try Shakespeare Stout, that's some great stuff.

Re: Opinion on great beers
I brew the beer I drink, its hard going back to the regular stuff. My "required gear' consists of 2-6 gallon buckets, like "spackle" or "drywall mud" buckets and everything but the pot and the bottles fits inside.
