And y'all don't know shit about O'Dell, either. Also based in Ft. Collins. 90 Shilling is their standard, Easy Street Wheat is probably my favorite bier to drink if it's draught. They came out with St. Lupulin came out this year, try that shit on for hops (it's in the fucking name, for shit's sake).

We got Avery, we got Ska, we got Breckenridge and Boulder Beer and Flying Dog and of course the Wynkoop, oldest microbrewery in the state. Shit, we've been CANNING microbrews for three years now. Pack that shit in, pack it out, take it on a boat or keep it cold as fuck in the stream whilst flyfishing for trout. That's how we do here in CO. Declared to be the "Napa/Sonoma/Alexander/Russian River Valley" of craft brewing. There's a reason the Great American Beef Festival and dozens of other national competitions for craft brewing go on HERE. Because we have well over a hundred of them operating within our borders.

American craft brewing for the fucking win, there shouldn't really be a discussion. Rogue, Stone, Full Sail, Pyramid and a few others for my West Coast favorites, especially since I went to school on that coast and drank 'em fresh, especially that Arrogant. I think I've had fresher Stone than anyone on here save a few. at 7-11. on Sunday (oh, Cali). Boulevard is a lovely KC brewer. God, there's shit-tons in the West, and in the NE, and can't even get started because I've only had a small sampling, and they keep popping up everywhere.

And I drink Red Hook products, too. I've drank Coors craft attempts since they began, and they are not as good since they sold out to the Canucks. And Budweiser is owned by InBev, which is a Belgian company, you stupid fucks...
