Re: Mircobrews
Went to a micro brewery in Baltimore called Brewer's Art and had several of their house beers. One in particular was Resurrection. A very memorable beer indeed.

Re: Mircobrews
I buy locally. Sometimes at Bevmo they have a lot of micro brews. 8th street ale and hefeweizen from Tempe are pretty good. I also enjoy the Nibus line out of Tuscon.

We have a lot of great micro-breweries in the Pacific Northwest. A few buddies of mine even write a blog about it. Love Good Beer

Re: Mircobrews
My favorite is Sierra Nevada out of Chico, Ca. All the bottled beers are great but the stuff on tap at the brewerey that they don't bottle can be interesting

Re: Mircobrews
Bell's is one of my favorites from when I used to live in MI, can't get it out here unfortunately. Founder's, brooklyn, duvel and dogfish head are some of my favorites that are available in the northeast.

Re: Mircobrews
My fave around here is Schlafly, although they're getting a bit big to be called a microbrew. They're getting to be almost a regional thing around here. They make a great Hefe as well as a nice Kolsch and some great seasonal stuff from time to time (the No. 15 comes to mind). Others in town that are pretty good: Trailhead, they have a great blueberry beer, and their red ale is quite nice. Just tried Granite City Brewery, and really enjoyed their two-pull and their brother bennies bock. Morgan street is ok, nothing super special though. I guess being in St. Louis has it's perks in beer selection. AB is definitely NOT the only game in town.

I had a good beer on the road when I went up to minnesota for vacation a couple years ago. I think it was Lake Superior Beer, and I got it in and around Duluth. Great local beer.

I drink stouts, mainly Imperial stouts. I'm happy with most any Microbrew stout but I drink these pretty often: Oskar Blues Ten Fidy, Stone Imp Russian Stout, Northcoast Old Rasputin, Rogue Chocolate Stout. I buy them all locally.

Re: Mircobrews
I'm a Sierra Nevada nut. Love almost everything they do. Then again, I am a hop head. Their new Torpedo is loaded with hops. I think its one of the best brews to pair with a stogie.

Re: Mircobrews
I love all styles of beer. There is a perfect beer for every mood and occasion. I was active on the Beer Advocate forums for a while and spent about 6 months reviewing beers... I think I reviewed over 210 beers in that time.

North Coast Old Rasputin was the only beer I reviewed at a perfect 100%. Best beer I have ever tasted.

Right now my kegerator at home is full of Port Townsend Brewing 'Hop Diggity' IPA. It's a dry hopped IPA that has the full flavor of a double IPA without the heaviness that some of those stronger brews possess.

Re: Mircobrews
Tanners Jack is a great beer. Flag Porter is another good beer (made from yeast found in beer bottles in a shipwreck from 1825)...actually almost any porter is good.

I love Rasputin, unbelievable flavor. Haven't tried the Port Townsend, don't even know if I can find it around here. I'll keep my eyes open.

Re: Mircobrews
I second the Great Northwest. I lived southside of Portland for two years. Great fun going to brewpubs and sampling their various offerings.
