    Yeah, Vermont is a no brainer. It wouldn't take much research to find out about HF, Lawson's, and alchemist

    I think Asheville is a better beer town or city than San Francisco.

    Remind me why the current co-winner for Beer City U.S.A (Grand Rapids, MI) is not on this list? Article is garbage.

    I don't agree with Philadelphia being six.
    And anybody coming in for beer week should go to Monks.
    If you worship the words of the late Michael Jackson then you must make the pilgrimage to Monks to see what he seen. Can any other town boast about that.

    But then on the other hand I wouldn't mind going back to Mc Vees in San Diego.

    It would be the biggest city in the world if anyone could find work. Gorgeous.

    My city was listed, and it was still a terrible list, IMO.

    Dope

    Humor, it's called humor. When these lists, and the subsequent threads, show up, there's always a plethora of posts basically saying "my town not listed, Bullshit!". It's funny that, except for the rodeo, there's no reason to go to Omak, let alone Omak being a "Best Beer City. Would it have been funnier had I used Concrete, WA?

    Those were genuine question marks. Sorry.

    Sadly, Wiki didn't have much about the Omak Stampede, but you could google that. No offense intended, I'm a long time smart-ass. Cheers! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omak,_WA

    San Diego.
    Top draw: Alpine Ale.

    That was definitely the least exciting Alpine beer I've had.

    Dark horse is a little more time than an hour, and I used to drive the autobahn to work daily. ;-)

    This is highly subjective, obviously, but... not even close.

    I think this was more of an online entity that got picked up by a myriad of news reflectors.
