Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel.  It's pricey, but I recommend.

The Calvados and Cognac barrel aged versions of this are pretty damn good, too.
 
Samuel Adams Fat Jack. Nice example of a pumpkin ale. You'd never know it is almost 9% ABV. The cinnamon and nutmeg mask it quite well.
 
I had one bottle of Fat Jack last year and was really impressed by it.  I made sure to grab two bottles this time around.
 
A little off topic but I heard Sierra Nevada is discontinuing Tumbler.  I'm pretty bummed about this as I think it's an excellent brown ale.  So if you dig brown ales and see this on the shelf, give it a go before it's all gone.
 
Great Divide Chocolate Oak Aged Yeti with a March 28, 2012 bottled on date. Much better than the football game I'm watching! Excellent example of an Imperial stout.

That Saddens me... I just discovered Tumbler last year. Looks like I need to stock up.
 
Picked up a couple bottles of Rogue Chocolate Stout.  I can't believe how good this stuff is!  It tastes just like a melted chocolate malt.  Delicious!

As early as it came out this year, I'd be surprised if there's any left around. Can't say I'm surprised they're discontinuing it, though. When I was checking out their website about a month ago, I noticed they added another fall seasonal to their lineup. I assumed this one was actually going to be released in the fall, since Tumbler got pushed to the summer. Guess I was wrong.
 
Had a friend over last night and had the following...
 
Finished off the growler of Pike's Brewing Kilt Lifter Ale, there was only about a glass left in this one.
Started and finished a growler of BarrelHouse Brewing IPA, they are a new California company.  The beer is good, and the owners are really cool.
