Craft brewers have changed my mind about lagers completely.

I'm not sure where you are, but from the two you mentioned, I would guess the NW. Try Heater-Allen and you will never hate on lagers again...

 

a easy find if still around is SA Alpine Spring

 

also many pils are around that you may enjoy, one of my favorites is
Radeberger

 

I never really drink lagers, but I was at a tasting recently and tried some Troegs Sunshine Pils and it was really quite nice.

 

Sierra Nevada Summerfest, and Full Sail Session are some of my favorites.

 

Sam Adams Noble Pils is pretty tasty. Also, anything from Jack's Abbey (they make tons of awesome lagers).

 

Craft lagers are my favorite thing in the world! Sierra Nevada Summerfest, Celebrator Doppelbock, Weinstephaner original = Beyond Badass!

 

Been checking out lagers/pilsners a little recently and having some positive results. Still not a huge fan of the style but they can certainly hit the spot in the right mood. Odell's Double Pilsner and SN's Summerfest have been the two that I have had the most positive response to, probably due to both using a decent malt base.

 

I'm still not the biggest fan of most lagers, but damn do I love me some pilsners! Uplsope Craft Lager is one of my new favorites, as well I enjoy Victory Prima Pils. A friend sent me a Troegs Sunshine...it was...ok.

 

Try the Full Sail LTD #3 (blue package). Easily the best craft lager I've had and fairly easy to find.

 

Anything from Jack's Abby. Period.

Dope

 

Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold and Elliot Ness are just about as good as it gets for lagers brewed in the US. I'm from Cleveland, so I probably sound like a homer or I'm being biased, but they really are amazing beers, especially Dortmunder Gold.. don't take my word for it though..

 

A couple people have already noted Jack's Abbey rocking the lagers.

I've got nothing else to add, other than... that. Jack's Abbey rocking the lagers.

 

Reality Czeck...

 

Humulus lager From The Bruery changed my thinking about lagers.

 

I love me some craft lagers, SN Summerfest is a beer I always look forward to buying a couple of cases of during the summer. Also really dig NB's Shift, and of course you gotta give it up to the German's, they perfected this style years ago, still can't beat a nice cold Bitburger, or Weinstephaner!

 

Another vote for Jack's Abby, they're ramping up distribution into the Northeast and it's going to take some time, but they have an excellent product right now and if they can scale up production without compromise they'll be a major player in the region.

 

Heater Allen specializes in lagers, and I have enjoyed everything I have tried from them so far. Plus they're a NW local.
