04.16.13 | Zombie dust is incredible, Revolution brewing's Anti-Hero is another great beer from the Chicago area. |
Spec
04.16.13 | These sound great but I doubt i'll ever have the chance to try one. |

04.16.13 | Three Floyds is probably my favorite brewery, though Stone, Lagunitas, Bells and Founders are all worthy contenders
my favorite Chicago area brewery outside of Floyds would probably be Pipeworks (their IPA/DIPA selections are amazing) but I also have love for Two Brothers, especially since they're about 5 min from my place |
Inveigh
04.16.13 | noticed a couple Great Lakes brews on the list... have you tried Alchemy Hour or Rye of the Tiger? sorry I'm a hop head haha |

04.16.13 | highly highly recommend the ballast point victory at sea for all you porter lovers. one of the best i've ever had |
DominionMM1
04.16.13 | "Old Rasputin, anyone?"

SeaAnemone
04.16.13 | I work for a craft beer brewery during the summers it's pretty sweet
lotsa good beer very cheap |
DominionMM1

SeaAnemone
04.16.13 | Appalachian Brewing Company
we sell burs in the Mid Atlantic region |
Inveigh
04.16.13 | what brewery?
also yea love Oskar Blues. Old Chub, Deviant Dale's, Gubna, G'Knight and Ten Fidy all rule hard. |
Inveigh
04.16.13 | oh haha, well there's my answer |

04.16.13 | The Founders porter is the best I've had, but the Flying Dog Gonzo (though an imperial porter) is a close second. I'm not sure what is sold in your area, but some I've been rocking lately include:
Dogfish Head Aprihop (IPA-esque beer cut with Apricot; not too sweet)
Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale (bitter, mean black IPA)
pretty much anything Hitachino Nest (rad Japanese beers, the Ginger one is real good)
The Ommegang Game of Thrones beer (created with their Belgian-esque open fermentor room, has a complex fruity/yeasty flavor)
And yes... three cheer for Old Rasputin (and also Brother Theloneous, which is also made by North Coast). |
Grimlin
04.16.13 | Bent River's "Uncommon Stout" is fucking amazing. really, any porter or stout and i'm game |
SeaAnemone
04.16.13 | any other fans of this beer called Natural Light? I think it's only sold around here and it's kinda an acquired taste, but I've been drinking it often lately with a nice steak |
DominionMM1
04.16.13 | is it as delicious as natural ice? |
Inveigh
04.16.13 | they both pale in comparison to bud ice and that suave penguin
doobie doobie doo |

04.16.13 | keystone ice > |

04.30.13 | @Inveigh: yup, alchemy hour has a bit too much alcohol in it for my taste but rye of the tiger was
really well balanced. i think my favorite ipa is probably Crooked Tree IPA from Dark Horse, but i'm
more partial to darker ales/lagers.
and there's this bar/brewery in Athens that's about to start canning their beers (Jakie O's Brewery)
so look out for them if any of you cats live in/near/around southern Ohio. |

05.01.13 | There's a brewery called Half Pints from my area that has some good stuff. |
