Alright gentlemen-I need some some suggestions on a really good Rogue beer to try out. I keep seeing Banjo's threads referring to Rogue and I just want to know what to start with. Apparently, the Mocha Porter is pretty damn impressive. I've yet to have a porter that I like. Should I start with that?

If you want to evaluate a brewery, start out with a style you know you like. If, say, I have yet to find a hop bomb I like (not true, BTW), trying Dreadnaught as my way to evaluate FFF is really setting FFF up with a double hurdle. If you find you really like a rogue beer in style you prefer, then try the mocha porter.

My 3 favorite Rogue beers are Shakespeare Stout, Brutal Bitter, or the St. Rogue's Red.

I don't know where you live or what Rogue styles are available there. I've been enjoying the John John series where they age the beer in Rogue spirits casks. There are wonderful advantages to living close to the Rogue Brewery. They make a lot of different styles so I'd check out the list here and try your favorite style first. http://www.rogue.com/beers/beers.php
