Stone is one of the "big" micro companies so I can't believe that much of a markup even if you're a good distance from the brewery, holy crap man that's brutal lol
2. I'm not a fan of World Brews and honestly haven't heard much good about them from any of my friends. I'm not sure if you happen to like their porter more than most people for whatever reason or if you just haven't had many different ones, but if it's the latter then I would have a ton of recommendations. So many readily available porters are quite a delight if you're into that style. Anything from Founders, Deschutes, Bells, or Great Lakes should be easy to find and delicious. If you're into the higher ABV baltic porters I'd try out Flying Dog Gonzo or anything you can get your hands on from Jack's Abby.
If you've already had a lot of porters and happen to just really like World Brews, then my bad, your post just reminded me of when I started getting into the "darker" styles. I first had Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald and I thought it was the only thing I was going to drink for the rest of my life. Little did I know, there was an entire world of porters and stouts waiting for me. Edmund Fitzgerald is still a beer I'll pick up occasionally because it's a very, very good porter, but I'm glad I decided to delve deeper into the porters/stouts because I've found some of my favorites that way.
I love talking beer just as much, if not more than the Bengals. I didn't expect many hardcore football fans to be much more than MillerCoors swilling knuckleheads

Yeah im just getting into porters so im up for recommendations... Bells and Great lakes i like not sure if i have had their porter though.. Ill look for those next time
And I now realize if i want an Arrogant Bastard (its best not to go to the local bar) lol...
