Alright.

How do you do the 25 most important craft beers of all time and not manage to put at least one of Oberon, Two-Hearted, or Founder's Breakfast Stout anywhere on the list. Baffling.

I'd agree a Bell's offering should be on there, but Oberon? LOL.

Regardless of whether you or I like Oberon, it is undeniably the beer that put that brewery on the map nationally, is often credited as  one of the beers that got people into craft breweries, remains their best selling product, and its annual release day is a de facto state holiday. What Bell's product is more important (which is the metric the list is using)?

Really...I can't stand Oberon and don't think it put bells on the map like Two Hearted and Hopslam

Not a brewery, but there has been something similar in Denver for a few years.  http://www.firstdraftdenver.com/

Did Anchor really need four beers on that list?

Dale's is probably my favorite on that list.

Good call regarding Anchor.

And someone needs to give you a Heady Topper.

No reason to buy mediocre 3 Stars cans when Aslin is beyond plentiful at this point.

Mully's out of Prince Frederick has been killing it. Got some Hazy Too and it's delish. 

Also grabbed some Key Brewing Behind the County Club.  Really nice DIPA.  Nice to see some small MD breweries stepping up their game.

Nice to see Bluejacket in cans too.
