    Thomas West Virginia (population 586) has Mountain State Brewing
    Davis West Virgnia (population 650) has Black Water Brewing

    Not even close to the chemical spill down in Kanawa County so beer should be good to go!

    These guys are cool. I had an email exchange with them a few years back and provided them with my Smoked Helles recipe. I wonder if they ever made it?

    Didn't know Horseheads had a brewery! My wife has cousins in Horseheads and the company I work for has a plant in Painted Post... I will have to check this out next time I'm over that way!

    Ellicottville Brewing Company, Ellicottville, NY... About an hour south of Buffalo. LOVE this place. Some of the best beer I've had has been here. They do bottle some (actually Southern Tier bottles it) and distribute in the Western New York region.

    And Olean, NY - about 20 minutes south of Ellicottville - has one in the making! This where I work so I am very much looking forward to this one!

    One more... http://www.straubbeer.com St. Mary's, Pa. About 45 minutes south of where I live. They don't make hop bombs or imperial anything but they do make honest fresh good clean lagers.

    not super small town but when Knee Deep originated they where based out of Lincoln California before it boomed. They're growing like crazy and have since moved to Auburn, CA which is much larger.

    Great brewery!

    Selinsgrove, PA, population: ~5500. Selin's Grove Brewing. I grew up here so I'm slightly baised, but to me, the best brew pub I've ever been to. Their oatmeal stout, amazing. Their standard IPA, one of the best best I've ever had. Their framboise, world class. Their pumpkin ale, the best I've ever experienced. They simply know how to make good beer.

    Choc Beer - Krebs, OK (Pop. 2,053)
    I guess you could also make a case for Prairie Artisan being part of this since they use Choc's brewery even though PA's offices are based in Tulsa.
