Tried to think of beers that at the time i first tried thwm blew my head off, beers that opened up my idea of what beer is:

Top 5 based on my experience:

5: Little Creatures Pale ale: Just a default beer at every opportunity. When i first tried it i was so shocked at the flavour i didn't touch it for a year, though it was offensive and ****. now i realise.
4: Red Hill Boheimian Pilsener: not quite to syle in hops but so delicious. made me interested in boho pils.
3: Aecht schlenkerla Rauch. Smoke. Not subtle, Not Apologetic. just a big if you dont like me then fk off beer.
|2. Bridge Rd Brewers Saison de Qoing , first saison and opened up my idea of what beer was. blew the head off my idea of what beer was.
1. Avec Les Bons Vux de la Brasserie Dupont: never had a beer like it, the pinnacle.
