Favorite new beer find/discovery for 2016

[The Dad Fisherman]

The wife and I spent the last few months working on the NH brewers guild passport card. hit 37 different breweries. Found some gems and some duds.

Really liked Schillings up in Littleton NH...bit of a haul though. FTB up in Derry had some really good stuff as well.

as far as something that I don't have to travel to get....I usually fallback on Night Shift Santilli or a release of Morph.

SOS still my standard bearer

Nice surprises punching above their weight:

Lost Nation Mosaic and Pour Judgement

I must have had a bad batch of the NS Santilli, as it was barely drinkable. Whirlpool is killer though

Probably, I love the Santilli but find the Whirlpool kinda weak...reminds me of a session brew

I'm with the boss man on the Mosaic. I've gone out of my working woman's way to get the treehouse, heady, etc. only to be disappointed more than once. I'm not really down with feeling like I'm not worthy of buying a beer from a brewery I have to first drive a half hour to 4 hours or more and then spend an hour (or more) in line for and get a greater than thou attitude when I beg for my "allotment" for at the register. Is the beer good? yes. but I like to drink beer more than I like to wait in line for it soooooo.... LN Mosaic is not only attainable but so good and more importantly, accessible for the most part. I have even compared side by side with the heavy hitters and preferred it!
