    OK, we are looking for things to keep us from getting too bored, so nominate 5 WA breweries. I'll track 'em for a few days, then set up voting. Nominate 5 ONLY, none of this wishy-washy "oh, I can't possibly decide" nonsense. If you list more than 5, I'll only take the first 3 you list as nominees.

    My nominees, in no particular order:
    Chuckanut
    Garden Path
    Fremont
    Skookum
    Wander

    (apologies to E9, Bale Breaker, Iron Goat, Propolis, Big Time, and Machine House)

    Turns out after the first two I don’t drink much Washington beer. I should rectify that.

    It sounds like I should seek out Skookum. I keep mixing them up with Stoup and all the other S breweries. It's like they're in the mattress business or something.

    Here's my list, in order:slight_frown: the top two swap depending on the season)
    Chuckanut
    Fremont

    Georgetown
    Logsdon ( too soon?)

    Reubens? I don't drink their beers nearly enough.

    Floodland seem like they'd be a top tier shoo-in given my tastes, but given they're basically unobtainable, I'm ok with leaving them off this list
