In Reply To #2 Best new beer to you I believe. For me, it was Liberator, hands down. Thumbsucker was new to me this year too, and was excellent. As for the new beer in 2004, I'd have to nominate Allagash FOUR. Too bad it was a limited edition release, although I still got some in the cellar.

In Reply To #8 That's actually not a bad price for DeuS. At Yankee Spirits in MA, they have it for $27. As soon as I see it I'm going to pick up a bottle, but I don't make it up to MA too often. That's a beer I've been wanting to try for a long time.
