I'll have to disagree with Bearcat's Samuel Smith Organic Chocolate Stout, the chocolate in it tasted very "imitation" to me but the SS Oatmeal stout is one of the best beers I've ever had. I will second his Ballast Point Victory at Sea, its great and is sold in MO...at least here in Springfield anyway.
Founder's Breakfast Stout is one of my all-time favorites...if you like a coffee stout I haven't found one better but Victory at Sea is close. If you want something really strong I'd recommend New Holland's Dragon's Milk, Bell's Expedition Stout and North Coast Old Rasputin.

I had a sample of Victory at Sea the other night at Mellow Mushroom. Wasn't a fan, which I found odd considering it seems to be a universal favorite.

Anyway -
Samuel Smiths Taddy Porter is one of the best porters you can buy in my opinion.
Bur Oak - Boon County Brown is good, I assume you can get that in your area.
North Coast - Old Rasputin Imperial Russian Stout is freaking fantastic. (edit: didn't see already mentioned but yea X2)
How do Belgian beers treat you?

Doubles kill me as well, I passed on Hopslam this year because of it. I don't drink Belgians very often.
