That is a really tough one that would change from day to day. However, I suppose today would be:Goose Island Bourbon County StoutChimay Grande ReserveA strong honorable mention goes to Mirror Pond on cask.....however I think I am fond of that more because I cant get it here.

Two is definitely too few, but really makes you look deep down to decide! I have 3 more that I could easily swap out for my first two, but I had to go with them for some strange, subconscious reason.

Cheez, I can't even narrow it down to two styles, let alone two brands.For today.....Hennepin and SN ESB in no particular order.Tomorrow would prolly be two different beers, likely two different styles. :smilielol:

If I could only drink two commercial beers for the rest of my life they'd be Port Brewing's Shark Bite and Rogue's Dead Guy.

I've seen a coupel of Hennepin's here. I just got back from filming at Ommegang recently and interestingly enough they use the same yeast for ALL of their beers. I figured the Hennepin had a more saison style centered yeast strain but just from ferm temp and spice selection they get a great farmhouse taste & aroma

Yeah, you're right. I wanted to offer him some astroglide.I'm changing my favorites to Andy77s house IPA and Andy77's Belgian Golden Strong. I charged this guy once for beer, so that technically makes them commercial.:wub: :wub: :wub: :cheers: ps. If I could get Schlafly out here my answers might be different. :smilielol:

Picking two and only two for the purpose of drinking on my deserted island, PBR for the hot, day time hours and unskunked Newcastle for the cool, evening hours.
