Most Under-rated beer
General Beer Discussion by COTTRELL
The other post sparked the idea, anyone think of a beer that doesn't get the credit it deserves? Of course we could just list off our favorite locals, but I'm talking about major producers that have a beer, or a lot of beers, that don't get the credit for being their best beer(s). The Casta line (good beer from Mexico?!?) Super Baladin Magic Hat's seasonals (overshadowed by the Hippy #9 hype) That's all I got for now, any other ideas?

I don't know how widely distributed it is, but I've got a couple. Abita Amber is a good summertime brew, light yet with flavor as opposed to pisswater. 2nd up is Pete's Wicked Ale. I know, I know, it hasn't received great ratings, but ergo, my opinion that it is under rated. Plus, it's a great source of neat bottles for homebrewing.
Staying away from local micro's and beers that people haven't heard about I'd say that, as far as underrated mainline beers go, Foster's is a solid jug to order. I've only ever had it on tap, but it beats the hell out of Bud, Miller, Coors, Etc if you have the option.
