if you cant tell i have a thing for California beers
Funny you mention all three of those, as I've had all three on many occasions and they are all up there in my top beers. Pliny the Elder is my favorite West coast IPA/IIPAs, whereas Bells Hopslam is my favorite East coast. Old Rasputin is probably the best imperial stout I've tasted, although I'm waiting to try a Ballast Point Sea Monster that is in my fridge. Right now in my fridge I have a Stone Cali Belgie, Russian River Blind Pig, Dogfish Head Aprihop, Dogfish Head Palo Santo, Ballast Point Sea Monster, Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout, and Stone Holiday Ale. I've also got a couple boxes in my closet with beers that are aging.
