Damn. That place is awesome.
For the growlers, I'd probably try the Barrier brown ale and IPA and the Blue Point oatmeal stout.
For the regular beers, I'd just go crazy with the IPAs, but I used to really dig IPAs and can't find them easily/cheaply over here. And British IPAs
are nothing like American IPAs... British ones are flat, served warm, and missing all the hoppy goodness of American IPAs. I've tried a few that I
can probably suggest if you're interested, but I think it's nicer to get a bunch of singles and try new things. I remember the Weyerbacher Simcoe
double IPA (under Imperial IPA) being good and also the Southern Tier IPA (under the regular India Pale Ale). Avoid the Mendocino White Hawk... not
bad, but nothing special and a bit weaker in flavor than most IPA. I used to drink a lot of the Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA since it was good and
readily available in Bmore, but I'd go for something a bit more obscure if I was you.
BD, is there a particular type of beer you like? That would make suggestions easier. I'm sure Jason has much to say on the topic.

That's a big selection, honestly I'd just ask the dudes there and tell them what styles you like, sure theyll have recomendations.
I seem to remember you not liking hoppy IPA's...so don't be scared by American breweries doing English Style IPA's, they're somewhat maltier than the
American style but not hop bombs...you may actually like those. You can serve them cold too, we wont tell the English.
