He brought over Cock & Bull, very good AND spicy; I bought some Goslings, spicy and still pretty good. Most recently, we tried two versions of Reeds, IMO it's nasty and wont buy again. They brew it with honey and pineapple which lends it a weird taste.

All be on the lookout for that Red Rock amongst others.
