i like beers of all kind but like my own the bestest.
my favorite microbrews:
Anderson valley hop ottin' as was mentioned
Racer 5 by bear republic
Hoptown's extra pale
Kilt Lifter by i believe Moylan's
Lagunitas's maximmum IPA
Stone IPA
Kelly Brother's (hometown brewery) IPA - even though its a brit style its still good.
my default beer is definitely sierra nevada pale, bigfoot, and their IPA and Harvest i crave when out of season
I cannot forget what was once called Humboldt brewery and is now known as Nectar their HEmp ale and IPA are awesome.
another great brewery is out of Oregon called Hair of the Dog. i dont know if they are still in business but i used to drink their ADAMBIER which is an old world german style -pre-lagering- that will knock your socks off.
I am pretty spoiled as there are breweries all over the place (including the one behing my house) here in northern california so good quality beer is never hard to come by
i like anything crafted with west coast cascade and centennial; as well as the Magnum hops the green flavor and bitterness of the cascade is by far the best. I am not biased simply b/c i live here but i have developed a taste for the hops from this region, the brittish and bavarian style have plenty of bitterness but lack that green flavor i get from the cascades and centennials.
i have brewed a few times and my wife's brother is the president of a brew club so i get to try new stuff all the time.
does any one else here brew?
