Lagunitas' Imperial Stout is wonderful. In fact almost all Lagunitas beer is fantastic. They're one of the few breweries that I trust just about completely. In fact I might even put them above Ballast Point. When I was back east I would gravitate to Jack's Abby and Victory for reliability. Of course Lagunitas was out there too, among many other fantastic brands. One of my few complaints about Oregon's beer culture is that it is so very insular. We get comparatively few out of state breweries who distribute here and I suspect it's Oregon's fault, rather than the other way around.
Hop Valley sells their Alpha Centauri in 22oz bombers. Since it's local I can pick it up for about $3.70, and it's 9%. Pretty much one of the best values for beer in that size. Lagunitas imperial bombers are the same price which also plays into why they're some of my staples.
