GQ’s style editor, Adam Rapoport, narrowed down that list and, along with co-anchor Harry Smith, sampled Rapoport’s top half-dozen. All six are readily available across the country, and inexpensive.
Rapoport’s top six:
Allagash White
Ommegang Hennepin
Oskar Blues Dale Pale Ale
Redenbach Grand Cru
Anchor Steam
Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout
Sounds like a great challenge. I’ve had Anchor Steam and Sam Adams Oatmeal stout. Altogether, I’ve only had about 7 of the beers on the list. Time to get busy!
Personally, my favorite is Carolina Pale Ale. What’s your favorite?
