Another brewery I enjoy is Brewdog (www.brewdog.com)

Some crazy strong beers, great taste too.
They seem to be getting more of a footing in UK supermarkets, not sure if they do much international shipping yet.

I had Hobgoblin while I was in London this summer and enjoyed it. Brewdog distributes some in the US, I've had a few of their brews.

Got a bottle of  Three Philosophers by Ommegang last week... Still have yet to try it. Sounds promising though. Anyone had it before?

I've had it a couple of times. I typically love Ommegang, and this is a really great beer. It's a quadrupel, but blended with a bit of a cherry ale. I think I'd prefer it straight without the slight cherry taste, but it's still pretty good.

Troegs Java Head is my current pick. (http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/694/52128)

It's a stout brewed with coffee beans. Very nice in both presentation and taste. Plus I'm not sure exactly how much caffeine makes it into the beer from the coffee beans, but it feels like more than none to me. Caffeine plus 7.5%abv equals fun. It's definitely in my top 3 of dark beers. Plus, since I usually tend towards super-hoppy IPAs, a stout I really enjoy is a nice change of pace.
