Remember the days when you could go into a Decatur liquor store and your only options were domestic beers and maybe some Sweetwater?  My have times changed!

With the loosening of Georgia’s liquor laws a few years back allowing for higher octane brews, the Decatur market is now flooded with kilo-gallons of beer options.  So, now instead of complaining about a lack of options, I’m now primed to complain about the tyranny of choice!  I walk into Herb’s, Ale Yeah! or Sherlock’s and I’m presented with hundreds of beer options.

So, I need some help.  We’ve done “Best Wines Under $15” recently, but I need some new beer standbys.  So that at the end of a long day, I can go into a beer retailer and have five or six good options that I can grab and go, and not stand there for 10 minutes, mouth agape, before finally picking up another six-pack of 420.

There are a lot of beers, so let’s start with I.P.A.  In the coming weeks we can move on to other ales, porters, Belgians, you name it.
