Anchor Steam makes a Barleywine Style ale, not sure if it's new or I've just never seen it, and I really enjoyed it. Also liked Gorden Biersch's SommerBrau, it's kolsch style.

Just finished a six pack of Shiner Holiday Cheer, and was really impressed. Went back to Bevmo for more but was too late, they had sold out. Also had some New Belgium 2 Below, always good stuff.
